Pre-Engineering & Planning

Thorough preparation and strategic execution are essential for the success of chemical cleaning and degassing operations. Even the most advanced chemical solutions and technologies can fall short without accurate application and well-planned procedures. That’s why PetroDecon prioritizes meticulous engineering and planning to ensure every decontamination project is carried out safely, efficiently, and in full alignment with budgetary and scheduling goals. 

​

Our process includes the following critical phases:

Pre-Engineering Phase
Our specialists begin by reviewing Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs) to craft a customized cleaning strategy, incorporating feedback from the client. This stage includes annotating Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs), designing chemical injection and circulation systems, defining operational steps, calculating chemical dosages, and identifying all necessary resources—such as chemicals, tools, personnel, and utilities.

​

Scope Definition & Project Planning
Using all relevant data from the facility, our team develops a clear and detailed scope of work. This includes a responsibility matrix that outlines the roles of both PetroDecon and the client. A comprehensive project timeline is then created to align seamlessly with the plant’s shutdown schedule, ensuring smooth coordination with decommissioning efforts.

Safety & Execution Protocols
To promote safe and effective operations, PetroDecon prepares site-specific execution plans, including a Work Method Statement (WMS) and a Job Safety Analysis (JSA), tailored to the unique conditions of the site.

​

Inspection & Testing Procedures
We establish rigorous protocols for sampling, testing, and inspection, which are strictly followed throughout the project to maintain quality and regulatory compliance.

​

Effluent Management Strategy
A detailed plan is developed for the safe handling, transport, and disposal of effluent, ensuring adherence to environmental standards and client-specific requirements.

​

Coordination with Plant Operations
PetroDecon holds alignment meetings with the client’s operations team to ensure mutual understanding and coordination. These sessions help optimize utility usage and safeguard plant equipment throughout the decontamination process.
