Carried out performance of Hydrogenator, Reformer, HTSC, LTSC & Methanator catalysts to ascertain % conversion and predict the life to enable planning of next replacement schedule and accordingly prepared Tender documents for catalyst replacement.

Reviewed the stock of catalysts available in warehouse and JSI stocks and necessary actions were initiated to transfer some MAB stocks to JSI stocks to minimize inventory.

Reviewed inventory of catalysts available in all three refineries in MAA/SHU/MAB for hydrogen plants including the existing purchase orders. Also reviewed catalyst replacement plan of each refinery in next five years. Under coordination of MAB, series of joint meeting was held among three refinery's process representatives and action was initiated to bring all the catalysts on a common platform to make maximum use of them and avoid any unnecessary purchase order by individual refinery.

Reviewed VEC files on catalysts as and when came and issued technical comments on the same.

Stock situation of fresh and regenerated catalysts of HCR was reviewed before July-August, 2001 replacement and ensured availability of the same before loading activity started.

Consumption and stock availability of Chemicals like MEA, DEA, DIPA, K2CO3, Anti-foam & DMDS, etc. were regularly monitored and actions were initiated by raising MR for each to maintain 18 months stocks as per the present strategy.

Vendor's offers were reviewed for compliance of technical specifications and performance level, and procurement order was accordingly advised to Purchase Department.

Carried out physical inspection of Catalysts and chemicals received in warehouse and acceptance was given if the same was found in order, and any short comings were brought to the notice of management for correcting the same.

CATALYST LOADING ACTIVITIES, PLANT START-UP & SHUT-DOWN:

Technical support was given during ZnO / CoMo catalyst loading of Hydrogenator in Dec-2000.

Technical support was given for PSA catalyst replacement and software change during July-August,2001and suggested to carry out the same skid by skid instead of completely shutting down the unit to avoid HRU feed flaring and loss of H2.
After catalyst replacement and commissioning, performance test of PSA was carried out to check guarantee on load, recovery & product purity, and report was released on the same.

Technical support was given in HCR unit's shut-down, catalyst unloading & loading of both stages, sulfiding of the catalyst and start-up of the unit and Prepared complete report on the same.
