Procedure to do an In-House Line Wash (Runaround)

Date Time Initials

1.______Prepare Line/product Change:

1.1  Determine the product that has been left in the line that is to be flushed

1.2  Determine the product that will be used for the line flush

1.3  Obtain a “Hand Opening Gauges” on the Flush Supply and the Flush Receiving Tank

1.4  Determine the Closing Stop Gauges on the supply tank

1.5  Enter this gauging information into the Terminal Operators Log

2.______Verify Valve and Tank Alignments

2.1  Verify that the barge pump manifold line is open on the Flush Receiving Tank

2.2  Verify that all other valves tied into this circuit are closed

2.3  Open the barge pump discharge MOV

2.4  At the River Dock, open the Dock line valves on Line Wash Manifold on the line that will be used for flushing (lines 1 or 2 for Diesel/Jet A/Gasoline). Do not change the product in a dedicated line without permission of terminal manager.

2.5  Verify that the Tank receipt line is open on the Receipt Manifold to the tank that will be used for receiving the flush

2.6  Verify that the Tank Side and River Dock side “Hump Valves” are open

3.______Perform visual inspection of all piping and valve alignments associated with this operation in preparation for starting the pump.

3.1  Start the barge pump

Note:

·  If the Receipt Manifold is being used, there will be a total of 550 barrels of product that will be used for line flushing purposes

·  If the Suction Manifold is being used, there will be a total of 500 barrels of product that will be used for line flushing

Note: The time that is required for completing this line flush is very short and must be coordinated between the Terminal Operator and the Dock Operator

4.______Monitor the Side Gauge on the Supply Tank that is being used for flushing and shut down the pump (after 550 barrels of product have been transferred) when the stop gauge level has been reached.

4.1  Perform visual appearance test tests to determine if line sample is clear and bright and water white in color. (color must match the color from the shipping tank certification) If visual appearance test is not acceptable, continue to flush line until additional testing is satisfactory.

5.______After line wash is complete:

5.1  Obtain Closing “Hand Lines” on the Supply and Receiving Tanks

5.2  Enter the gauging information into the Terminal Operators Log

5.3  Enter the data into the CSI system

Additional Procedure Information:

Responsibility: This procedure applies to all Terminal Operators.

Quality Requirements: Products flowing into the Tanks must be of similar quality to avoid contamination of the Storage Tanks
