Salt Lake City refinery (Utah, US)

CHALLENGE:

Several AMPO POYAM switch plug valves were installed at Salt Lake City refinery years ago and Marathon Petroleum requested a safety and ergonomics upgrade for the operation of an AMPO POYAM switch plug valve. 

Salt Lake City refinery began operations in 1908 and is now the largest refinery in Utah with a total crude oil refining capacity of 66,000 barrels per calendar day (bpcd). The Salt Lake City refinery processes crude oil from Utah, Colarado, Wyoming and Canada to manufacture gasoline, distillates, heavy fuel oil, natural gas liquids and petrochemicals and propane.

SOLUTION:

AMPO rebuilt the existing switch plug valve automatizing valve operation with an electric actuator and double security interlocks for safety increase.
