DEVELOPMENT OPPORUNITIES IN THE NIGER DELTA REGION BY MODULAR REFINERIES.

-

Brig.-Gen. Retired Paul Boroh, the president's special advisor on the Niger Delta, said the planned liberalization of modular refineries by the federal government would boost development in the oil-rich Niger Delta region. Boroh, who is also the coordinator of the presidential amnesty program, assured residents of the region that the proposed modular refineries in the oil-producing communities would open a new era in the Niger Delta region. General Boroh, in a statement to the Nigeria News Agency (NAN) on Saturday in Yenagoa, reiterated the commitment of the administration led by President Muhammadu Buhari to develop the Niger Delta region. He argued that the intention to make oil producing communities the hub of refining and related activities would put them in a better position to stimulate the local economy. Boroh called on young people to be calm, focused and articulate in their quest for better living conditions and to benefit from the good actions of the current administration. The amnesty coordinator explained that the federal government is looking for better ways for the people of the Niger Delta to participate in the development process of the region with meaningful commitments. According to the amnesty boss, the new federal government partnership agreements will lead to unprecedented infrastructural development in the region. Boroh congratulated the acting president, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, for taking the time to identify with the people during his tour of the region. According to Boroh, the planned federal government meeting on oil communities to develop a short-, medium- and long-term development plan was a strategy to strengthen socio-economic activities in the region. He expressed the hope that with the proposed commissioning of modular refineries, ex-agitators and other young people in the region will make a significant commitment to decent jobs. Meanwhile, the leadership of the ex-agitators of Phase II in the Niger Delta region in reaction to development, congratulated President Muhammadu Buhari for demonstrating his sincere wish for the people of the region.

THE IMPORTANCE OF OIL DEPOT IN THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRIES

An oil depot (sometimes called a tank farm, installation or oil terminal) is an industrial facility for the storage of petroleum and / or petrochemical products and from which these products are generally transported to end-users or other storage facilities. An oil depot usually has a tank, either above ground or underground, and gantries (frame) for spilling products in tank trucks or other vehicles (such as barges) or pipelines. Oil depots are usually located near oil refineries or in places where tankers containing products can unload their cargo. Some deposits are attached to pipelines from which they draw their supplies and deposits can also be fed by rail, barge and tanker (sometimes called "bridge"). Most oil depots have tank trucks that operate from their land and these vehicles transport products to service stations or other users. An oil depot is a relatively unsophisticated facility in that (in most cases) there is no processing or other processing on the si

Typical flare system in industrial plants

 Diagrammatic representations of a typical vertical, elevated flare stack system in an industrial plant. During operations, when industrial plant equipment items are over-pressured, the pressure relief valve is an essential safety tool that automatically releases gases and sometimes liquids. Those pressure relief valves are essential by industrial design codes and standards as well as by law. The released gases and liquids are directed through large piping systems known as flare headers to a vertical elevated flare. The escaped gases are burned as they exit the flare stacks. The size and brightness of the resulting flame is determined by the flammable material's flow rate in joules per hour (or btu per hour). Majority of industrial plant flares have a vapour-liquid separator(also called a knockout drum) upstream of the flare to remove any large amounts of liquid that may go along with the relieved gases. Steam is f
