VESSELS TRANSPORTING CRUDE OIL AND GASOLINE
IN THE HOUSTON-GALVESTON AREA
Appendix I contains information supplied by owners of
the larger marine terminals in the Houston-Galveston area concern-
ing the marine tankers which visited their docks to transfer crude
oil or gasoline. The responses were not consistent in the type
of information presented. Data on vessel names, DWT, ownership,
service, quantity loaded in 1975, number of cargo tanks, and
number of visits in 1975 were obtained in different responses.
Very little information was obtained on the specific barges that
transferred gasoline and crude oil in 1975 in the Houston-Galveston
area.

VAPOR CONTROL SYSTEM COST DATA
II-l

-------
VAPOR CONTROL SYSTEM COST DATA
The cost data presented in Appendix II represent "best
estimates" and are based upon the best cost information available.
There are no marine loading vapor control systems currently in
use for gasoline transfers from which" to draw cost information.
Although tanktruck loading emission control systems are in
operation, they are much smaller and are designed to cope with
a different set of problems.

Project No. 200-045-56
MEMORANDUM
TO:
FROM:
Distribution
J. D. Colley
SUBJECT: Sampling trip to Shell, Deer Park, meeting notes with
Exxon, Crown Central Petroleum, and Charter International
Oil.
On May 3, Milton Owen and myself left for Houston to
sample a gasoline loading operation at Shell's Deer Park marine
facility. On May 4, we visited with Shell's Shipping Coordinator,
Don Lanning, and toured the Shell tank farm and dock areas.
Wednesday, May 5, we met with Lee Fuller, John Bentz, and Bruce
Nichols of Exxon's Environmental Group and toured their terminal.
Then on Thursday, we visited Crown (Bill Warnement) and. Charter
(Bill Miles) and inspected their marine facilities. The remainder
of this memorandum summarizes the results of the testing at Shell
and presents an outline of the meetings and tours between Radian
and Shell, Exxon, Charter, and Crown personnel.
Plans had been made with Shell Oil to sample the loading
of Super Shell and Shell Regular into the tanker "Pasadena" on
Tuesday, May 4. Monday morning Don Lanning notified Radian that
the tanker was a day early and was expected to arrive at their
docks by noon Monday. Milton Owen and I loaded the equipment and
left for Deer Park as soon as possible. We arrived about an hour
SHELL
VI- 2

-------
13 May 1976
JDC.swm
Page 2
before the tanker was to be loaded and set up our equipment for
testing.
After talking with the Chief Mate of the "Pasadena",
Mr. Knox, we decided that it would be possible to sample the
loading of three carge tanks with Super Shell (1C, 7C, and 7S)
The test runs went smoothly and we sampled tank 1C beginning at
7:50 p.m. and finished with tank 7C at midnight. Although the
data have not been fully processed at this time, a preliminary
examination indicates a vapor concentration profile similar to
that seen in the test results from the literature. The "Pasadena's"
cargo tanks 1C, 7S, and 7C had a less than 1 percent uniform
hydrocarbon concentration prior to the loading. The final hydro-
carbon concentration was 43 percent for tank 7S; 45.5 percent for
tank 1C; and 47 percent for tank 7C. The primary reason for the
difference in the final vapor concentration is thought to be the
loading rates. Tank 7S was loaaed the fastest, while tanks 7C
md 1C took over twice as long to load.
Th~ RVP of the gasoline was 10 2 psi and its initial
loading temperature was 73°F.
Tuesday, Milt and I met with Don Lanning, Shell's
Shipping Coordinator. He showed us around the Shell tank farm
and the dock site. We discussed with him the dockside equipment
at their terminal and the operating procedures there. We traced
with him to path of the Shell gasolines from storage to blending
to pumping of the product either to the bulk pipeline or to the
marine dock. The pumps which deliver the gasoline to the docks
are located within the tank farm area. These pumps are of the
VI- 3

-------
centrifugal type and they can deliver gasoline at the rate of
nearly 6,000 barrels per hour each. They operate at 150 psi.
At the terminal itself, there are four docks either of
which they can each load gasoline. Also, the Shell refinery
receives approximately one-half of its crude oil from ships and
barges.
Mr. Lanning indicated that approximately twelve tankers
are chartered by Shell to serve the Deer Park refinery on a reg-
ular basis. The collection system for Shell's proposed vapor
recovery unit will consist of flexible hoses which would transfer
the vented gasoline vapors from these ships to four recovery units
located next to each of the four docks. He claimed that the
system has been designed to be compatible with the Exxon ships
which must mate with the Exxon vapor recovery system. He said
the two systems are somewhat different. Mr. Lanning agreed to
supply a rough schematic of the piping which transfers gasoline
to the docks from the refinery and crude oil from the docks to the
tank farm. Additional information concerning Shell's marine
terminals (which will be supplied to Radian by Shell personnel in
the near future) will describe the facility and the operations
in more detail.
In summary, this sampling visit and tour should be very
valuable in completing the program. The data we gathered on the
loading operation appear to agree with data observed from p.ast
tests by other companies. Shell's Deer Park marine facility is
one of the largest of its kind. The sampling and tour along with
further cooperation by Shell personnel in providing Radian with
more detailed information on their terminal will go a long way
toward achieving the objectives of this program.

mately 53,000 DWT. It is owned by AMOCO Petroleum Corporation,
has a Korean crew, and sails under the Liberian flag. Currently
the ship is in service between the Caribbean and the AMOCO Texas
City refinery. On this particular voyage, the ship had arrived
at Dock 40, a ¦dock used exclusively by AMOCO to handle crude oil,
on Tuesday May 25, to unload Trinidad (Galeota crude-RVP 2.8) and
Essider (Lybian crude-RVP 6.4). The average unloading rate was
approximately 14,000 barrels per hour. The tanker had nine center
tanks and seven port and starboard wing tanks.
Prior to taking hydrocarbon measurements on the tanker's
ballasting operation, a meeting was held with Captain Park and his
first mate to discuss the purpose of our visit. Communication was
difficult with them, however, we determined that 40 percent of the
ship's capacity would be ballasted and we obtained a ballasting
diagram showing the final ullage of each tank to be ballasted.
From this information a preliminary sampling strategy was decided
upon. Data was to be taken on the hydrocarbon concentration pro-
file of as many tanks as possible prior to ballasting. Then the
probe would be positioned near the open ullage hatch and the
rented vapor concentrations recorded for a selected tank.
VI -14

-------
At 4:00 a.m. all the crude oil had been discharged from
the tanks. We began taking measurements at this time with our
MSA Gascope, Model 53. Simultaneous readings were taken by
AMOCO using a similar type measuring instrument which was cali-
brated to read hydrocarbons as percent butane. Their readings
were generally lower than our readings since our gascope was
calibrated to read in percent methane.
Because of interference with internal structures in certain
cargo tanks, we were able to drop the sampling probe to the bottom
of only six cargo tanks, before ballasting operations began. Access
to each tank was through the 10% inch diameter ullage gauging
opening which was located 40 inches above deck level and atop the
tank manhole hatch cover. Measurements recorded from our gascope
are presented on data sheets at the end of this report.
Several points worth noting are.
Higher concentrations were observed in tanks
6C and 10C than in the other tanks sampled.
This was because 6C had arrived only half full
of crude thereby providing a large vapor space
above the crude for light hydrocarbons to evapor-
ate into. Also it was reported that the steam
coils in the tank were in poor repair and
possibly leaking steam. The reason tank 10C
had higher than average hydrocarbon concen-
trations is that strippings from the bottoms of
all the other cargo tanks were pumped to this tank
and collected before being pumped ashore.
A hydrocarbon concentration versus depth analysis
was run on tank 4C at two times which were separated by
VI-15

-------
several hours. Data taken prio'r to ballasting on
this tank showed a vapor blanket of about 2-3
feet thick ranging in concentration from 6 to 40
percent. After about 5 or *6 hours another test
was made. The tank had been ballasted to a 34
foot ullage by then. The measurements indicated
that the blanket was now about 6-7 feet thick
ranging in concentration from 7 to 36 percent.
Several factors could account for this: (1) ini-
tial ballast water inlet agitating and dispensing
the vapor blanket in the bottom of the tank,
(2) evaporation of volatile hydrocarbons from
the crude oil heel left in the tank, and" (3)
vertical diffusion of these vapors into the empty
compartment.
Forty percent of the cargo space was ballasted.
This is a larger amount than was expected.
Various sources estimate the amount of ballast
typically taken on at dock for crude tankers to
be 20 to 30 percent.
Ship personnel mentioned that the crude cargo
tanks are washed with oil (similar to butter-
worthing with water) to remove the heavy ends
(waxes, paraffins, tars, etc.) which stick to the
tank walls. More information about this operation
is needed since little detail was obtained during
the discussion. Hydrocarbon concentrations in a
tank "cleaned" in this manner could increase sub-
stantially due to this operation.
VI-16

-------
Ballast water was pumped into each tank at
a relatively slow rate. Rough calculations
indicate the water was pumped in at 2,000-
3,000 barrels per hour.
The M/V Ocean Challenger is classified as a type
"A" tanker. For this class of ships the dis-
placed vapors from the cargo tanks can be vented
through a manifold system which includes a P/V
valve and a flame arrestor at masthead level
(approximately 55 feet above deck). All tanks,
however, were vented not through this system, but
through their ullage measuring hatches during
ballasting.
The residual hydrocarbon concentration in the
cargo tanks did not appear to be a function of
crude RVP.
B. S.S. AMOCO Virginia
This ship is owned by AMOCO Oil Company, has an American
crew and sails under the American Flig. The ship is approximately
20,000 DWT and has 27 cargo tanks - 9 center tanks and 9 port and
starboard tanks. The Virginia had just returned from a trip to
Wilmington, N C. and Savannah, Georgia. The return trip took 4
days. The cargo unloaded at those ports was fuel oil (1, 2, 3,
and 9 tanks across) and gasoline (4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 across).
Deballasting operations were completed at approximately 2:45 a.m.
VI-17

-------
Points worth noting include:
A full range of arrival conditions were found
in the tanks. Tanks 1, 2, 3 and 4 wings had a
less than 1 percent arrival hydrocarbon concen-
tration, tank 5C had a 9 percent concentration,
and tanks 7C and 8C had a 20-21 percent concen-
tration. The differences were due to the prior
cargo and degree of cleaning each tank had had.
Tanks 1, 2, and 3 across had all previously carried
a non-volatile product fuel oil. Number 4 port
and starboard wing tanks had been gas freed so
the crew could enter them for necessary repair
work. Tank 5C had carried gasoline on the pre-
vious voyage but had been ballasted, vented and
washed on the return trip. Tanks 7C and 8C had
carried gasoline previously but had been left
uncleaned.
The typical loading sequence used to fill three
tanks across with the same product was discussed
with one of the mates onboard the Virginia. He
said that all three tanks are brought up roughly
at the same level until an ullage of 15 to 20 feet
is reached in the center tank. Then flow to it is
shut off and the two wing tanks are topped off
(filled to their final height). After they are
finished, loading is resumed into the center tank
until it too is topped off. The mate said this
sequence is followed for two reasons. It is more
difficult to top off three tanks than two and
should any problem arise while topping the wing
tanks, flow can be easily diverted into the larger
center tank until the problem is worked out.
VI-18

-------
While talking to the Chief Mate onboard the
Virginia, the ballasting of the ship1 on its return
voyage was discussed. He said that the ship is
ballasted once at the port that it discharges its
cargo, but that it usually dumps this ballast
(if over 100 miles from shore) and takes on a fresh
ballast. This operation, he explained, cleans the
cargo holds and also allows the ship to discharge
ballast into port waters rather than return them
to the refinery for disposal. This aids the ship
in reducing its turnaround time in port since the
slop line at most docks can handle only a small
discharge rate.
Measurements taken during the loading of the Virginia are
presented at the end of this trip report.
V.	Conclusions
From observations made during this sampling trip, several
conclusions may be drawn.
(I"1 Factors which cause higher residual hydrocarbon
concentrations in crude oil cargo tanks prior
to ballasting are: (a) partially loaded tanks;
(b)	pumping strippings from the ships tanks
into a designated tank prior to final unloading
causes higher concentrations in that tank; and
(c)	washing crude cargo tanks with oil.
(2) Based on the data taken onboard the M/V Ocean
Challenger, the RVP of the crude oil unloaded
has no effect on the residual hydrocarbon con-
centration of the empty tanks.
VI-19

-------
(3)	Factors which cause higher emission levels
for gasoline loading onto a tanker include:
(a) prior cargo, (b) extent of cleaning
(ballasted once or twice, vented, blown dry,
butterworthed, stripped); (c) initial loading
rate; (d) product RVP and temperature; (e)
ambient temperature; and (f) fill time.
(4)	The hydrocarbon emissions from the loading
of gasoline onto a tanker can be substantially
reduced by ballasting, washing, and venting
cargo tanks on the return voyage.

SAMPLING TRIP REPORT
Gasoline Loading - Exxon's Port Everglades
On 3 June 1976 David Colley and Clint Burklin visited
the Exxon port facilities in Baytown, Texas for the purpose of
measuring hydrocarbon emissions during the loading of Exxon's
ocean barge; the Port Everglades. The Port Everglades is a
barge in that it is pushed by a detachable tugboat, however it
is as large as many tankers. Its tanks have 43 ft ullages, and
the barge's size is 30,000 DWT
The Port Everglades had just returned from a delivery
of motor gasoline to Tampa, Florida. Tanks 1 center, 3 port, and
3 starboard were ballasted on the return voyage. The return
voyage took 4 to. 5 days. None of the empty cargo tanks had
been cleaned. Because of limited crew availability, tank
cleaning and vapor freeing is not a standard practice on ocean
barges.
Products were loaded onto the Port Everglades in much
the same manner as tanker loadings Ballast water was completely
discharged prior to taking on products. The ship to shore con-
nection was made with 8"-10" rubber hoses. Three products were
loaded simultaneously at individual pumping rates of 10,000 bbl/hr.
The Port Everglades is equipped with automatic ullage
gauges, all of which were in good working condition. Each gauge
window was equipped with an internal windshield-wiper for re-
moving condensate. These ullage gauges worked well, and were
used by the crew for monitoring tank levels. However, each tank
was topped of visually by sighting through the ullage caps.
The sampling data taken by Mr. Colley and Mr Burklin
are presented on the following data sheets.

SAMPLING TRIP REPORT
Gasoline Loading - Exxon Barge No. 119
On 15 June 197 6 David Colley and Clint Burklin visited
the Exxon port facilities in Bavtown, Texas for the purpose of
measuring hydrocarbon emissions from the loading of gasoline
onto barges.
The Exxon Barge No. 119 is a typical product barge with
6 cargo tanks 12 ft. deep. At the time, E.B. 119 was in
dedicated service delivering gasoline to facilities along the
Houston Ship Channel. For these gasoline loading tests, the
E.B. 119 had returned from unloading gasoline just two hours
previously. The short elapse time between unloading and loading
operations for EB-119 have potentially lowered its loading
emissions.
The sampling data taken by Mr Colley and Mr. Burklin
are presented on the following data sheets.

APPENDIX VII
INDEPENDENT ANALYSIS OF VAPOR RECOVERY SYSTEM COSTS

-------
INDEPENDENT ANALYSIS OF VAPOR CONTROL SYSTEM COSTS
1.0	INTRODUCTION
In the course of conducting this program to investigate
the control of hydrocarbon emissions from marine terminal oper-
ations it has become evident that cost is a major issue in eval-
uating the feasibility of available emission control technology.
Vendor and oil company cost estimates differ significantly on the
cost to install a safe reliable vapor control system. In an
attempt to place these wide cost ranges in perspective, the EPA
has contracted Radian to conduct an independent analysis of vapor
control system cost data.
Radian's approach to the cost analysis was to prepare
a detailed design of each of the .marine transfer vapor control
systems likely to be installed in the Houston-Galveston area, and
to have these designs costed by a cost estimating consultant ex-
perienced with the installation of hydrocarbon processing equipment
in the Houston-Galveston area.
The two vapor control systems most likely to be installed
in the Houston-Galveston area are the refrigeration system and the
absorption system. The refrigeration system recovers by conden-
sation at cryogenic temperatures. The absorption system recovers
hydrocarbons from marine transfer vapors by absorption into a lean
oil. This lean oil is normally a refinery product stream.
Because several sizes, types, and arrangements of equip-
ment may be used to construct vapor control systems, the systems
to be costed in this study were separated into basic components or
modules which were costed individually. These modules represented
the most common sizes and processing configurations expected to be
VII- 2

-------
encountered in the Houston-Galveston area. Radian was able to
investigate the economic impact of size, equipment selection,
and processing configuration by investigating the individual
contribution of each module to the total system cost.
The engineering-construction firm selected by Radian
Corporation to estimate the cost of marine vapor control systems
was Ref-Chem Corporation of Odessa, Texas. Ref-Chem Corporation
is widely experienced in the engineering, construction, and main-
tenance of chemical and petroleum processing units in the Texas
Gulf Coast area.
Sections 2.0 and 3.0 of this appendix discuss the design
and cost results of a refrigeration vapor recovery system and of
an absorption vapor recovery system.
VII- 3

-------
2.0	REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS
2.1	Cost Basis
This section presents the refrigeration unit design
which provided the basis for the cost estimates generated by
Ref-Chem Corporation.
Refrigeration vapor recovery systems recover hydrocarbons
from marine loading vapors by condensation at cryogenic tempera-
tures and at atmospheric pressure. Figure 2.1-1 presents the
flow diagram of a typical refrigeration vapor recovery system.
For simplification the refrigeration vapor recovery system has
been^divided into six distinct components termed modules. Module
I 1
A consists of the equipment required to transfer hydrocarbon vapors
collected onboard marine vessels to the shoreside vapor recovery
system. This ship-to-shore connection is normally effected by
the use of either a large diameter hose or by a marine loading arm.
Module B consists of the vapor collection lines which convey hydro-
carbon vapors from the ship-to-shore connector to the vapor con-
denser unit. Module C is the vapor condenser. In the vapor con-
denser, hydrocarbons and moisture are condensed from the hydro-
carbon vapors yielding a purified air stream containing less than
5 volume percent hydrocarbons. Recovered hydrocarbons and water
are returned to the refinery. The lines conveying refrigerant
brines and fluids from the refrigeration unit to the condenser
compose Module D. Module E is the package refrigeration unit
which provides the refrigeration capacity for the condensers.
Module F comprises all of the utilities required to operate the
vapor recovery system.
Each of these vapor recovery system modules has also
been separated into several cost cases which address the cost of

different module sizes or module configurations. These cost
cases are characterized by the following module discussions.
Module A: Ship to Shore Connection
Module A consists of the equipment required to transfer
hydrocarbon vapors collected onboard marine vessels to etloreside
vapor recovery units. In cost cases Al, A2, and A3, a 50 ft.
long flexible (yet not collapsible) hose is used for the ship-to-
shore connection. The hose is constructed of a gasoline vapor
resistant material and terminates on each end with a standard
SCH 40 flange. The hoses for cost cases Al, A2, and A3 are sized
for ship loading rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph,
respectively. The cost of an air driven hoist for hose handling
is also included in each of these three cost cases.
Cost cases A4, A5, and A6 are the cases employing a
hydraulic-actuated loading arm to achieve the ship-to-shore con-
nection. Loading arms for the three cases are sized for ship
loading rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph respectively.
The cost cases include the costs associated with construction on
crowded existing marine loading docks
Module B: Vapor Collection Line
Module B investigates the cost of the equipment required
to convey hydrocarbon vapors from the ship-to-shore connector
(Module A) to the vapor recovery unit (Module C). Cost cases Bl,
B2, and B3 address the cost of installing short runs of vapor
collection piping from the ship-to-shore collector to dock mounted
vapor condensers. Pipe fittings, pressure alarms, and safety
equipment are included in the cost. The three cases are sized
for ship loading rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph,
respectively.
VII-6

-------
Cost cases B4, B5, and B6 address the cost of installing
1000' runs of vapor collection piping from the ship-to-shore con-
nector to centrally-located, shared vapor condensing units. Pipe
fittings, pressure alarms, safety equipment, and condensate drains
are included in the cost. The three cost cases are sized for ship
loading rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph respec-
tively.
Module C. Vapor Condensing Units
Cost case CI, C2, and C3 investigate the cost of install-
ing dock mounted vapor condensing units for ship loading rates of
12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph, respectively. Costs include
purchase, transportation, and mounting of the units on crowded
existing docks. It was assumed that a barge mounted crane was
needed for the construction work.
Cost cases C4, C5, and C6 investigate the cost of install-
ing centrally-located, shared condensing units located inland from
the docks. These cases are sized for ship loading rates of 12,500
bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph respectively.
Module D- Refrigeration Lines
Module D investigates the cost of installing refrigerant
and defrost fluid piping between the refrigeration unit and the
condensation units. The piping materials were selected to with-
stand exposure to methylene chloride, glycol-water, and trichloro-
ethylene fluids at temperatures down to -100°F. Pipe insulation
specifications met the requirements provided by the refrigeration
unit manufacturer. Two additional pipelines were included in the
Module D design for conveying condensed water from the condenser
to the refinery wastewater systems and for conveying condensed
VII- 7

-------
hydrocarbons from Che condenser to refinery produce storage tanks.
Cost case D1 represents the cost case for centrally-located,
shared condensers and specifies pipe lengths of 100 ft.
Module E: Refrigeration Units
Module E investigates the cost of purchasing and in-
stalling the refrigeration units which supply the cooling capacity
for the vapor condensers. Costs included in Module E are purchase
and transportation of the refrigeration units, preparation of the
refrigeration unit site, removal of the units from transport trucks
to their foundation, and connection of utilities and piping to the
units The refrigeration unit sites consist of curbed concrete
foundations, sidewalks, lighting, fire water supply, and spill
drains. Cost cases El, E2, and E3 represent refrigeration units
sized to control ship loading rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and
50,000 bph respectively.
Module F: Utilities
Module F comprises several miscellaneous utility items
which will be necessary in the installation of a refrigeration
vapor recovery system. Cost case F1 addresses the cost required
to install sumps, drains, and sewers for the removal of spills,
runoff, and wastewater. Process water lines are included in this
cost case. The length of the utility lines in Cost case F1 are
3000 ft.
Cost case F2 addresses the cost for expanding the local
electrical substation capacity by 2 megawatts. The voltage re-
duction was assumed to be from 12.8 kv down to 480 v.
VII- 8

-------
2.2
Cose Estimates
Table 2.2-1 presents the cost estimates generated by
Radian Corporation for the installation of a completely operable
refrigeration vapor recovery system in the Houston-Galveston area.
These cost estimates are based on the refrigeration vapor recovery
system design basis developed by Radian Corporation which was out-
lined in Section 2.1. In developing the cost estimates for each
cost case, Ref-Chem Corporation considered four cost centers.
These cost centers were.
Direct costs
Indirect costs
Contingency allowances
Contractor fee for overhead and profit
Direct costs include expenditures for labor, materials,
equipment and subcontractors used in constructing the various
modules. Indirect costs include equipment rentals, consumable
supplies, temporary facilities, support labor, and move in - move
out. A contingency cost was added to the estimate to provide
allowances for cost items not considered elsewhere.
A major cost item not included in the cost estimates
is engineering and design. Consultation with several industrial
sources indicate that engineering and design work on chemical
processing facilities will characteristically cost approximately
10 percent of the construction costs.

Cost Analysis
The cost of candidate refrigeration vapor recovery
system arrangements for construction in the Houston-Galveston
area can be analyzed by compiling the appropriate cost estimates
for refrigeration system modules presented in Section 2.2.
Table 2.3-1 presents the construction costs for five candidate
refrigeration systems. A comparison of the costs for System I
and for System II indicate that the impact of minor equipment
substitutions such as the use of rubber loading hoses instead of
automatic loading arms has very little overall impact on the
total cost for a refrigeration vapor recovery system. In addition,
a comparison of costs for individual dock mounted condensers
(System I) and costs for centrally located common condensers
(System III) indicate that the individual condensers are approx-
imately 107o more expensive. It has been suggested that individual
condensers are much safer than common condensers.
Table 2.3-2 compares the cost of five potential refrig-
eration systems on a relative size basis. As expected, the costs
for larger vapor recovery systems are lower on a unit capacity
basis than the costs for smaller systems The 12,500 bph system
is projected to cost $806,000 per 10,000 bph and the 50,000 bph
system is projected to cost $775,000 per 10,000 bph. However,
the estimated cost range between the least expensive and most
expensive refrigeration vapor recovery system applicable to the
Houston-Galveston area on a capacity basis is approximately 107o.
The cost of all of these systems can be approximated as $800,000
per 10,000 bph of capacity.

ABSORPTION SYSTEMS
3.1	Cost Basis
This section presents the absorption unit design which
provided the basis for the cost estimates generated by Ref-Chem
Corporation.
Absorption vapor recovery systems remove hydrocarbon
vapors from marine loading vapors by absorbing the hydrocarbons
into a lean oil stream. The system selected by Radian Corporation
for detailed cost analysis utilizes a tray absorber for the oil/
vapor contactor. The system operates at near atmospheric pressure
and boosts the lean oil absorptivity by chilling the lean oil to
40°F. Figure 3.1-1 presents the flow diagram of an absorption
vapor recovery system.
For simplification the absorption vapor recovery system
has been divided into eight distinct components termed modules.
Module A consists of the equipment required to transfer hydrocarbon
vapors collected onboard marine vessels to the shoreside vapor re-
covery system. This ship-to-shore connection is normally effected
by use of either a large diameter hose or by a marine loading arm.
Module B consists of the vapor collection lines which convey hydro-
carbon vapors from the ship-to-shore connector to the vapor absorp-
tion column. The lean oil absorber and directly associated equipment
compose Module C. Module D consists of the piping, valves, and
pumps required to transport lean oil from the refinery storage area
to the vapor recovery system. Module E is the refrigeration unit
which is used to chill the lean oil prior to its introduction to
the absorber. The air eductor and associated air compression
equipment required to draw ship loading vapors through the absorber
compose Module F. Module G comprises the piping, valves, and pumps
VII-17

-------
used to return rich oil effluent from the absorber to the refinery
product blending area. Module H comprises all of the utilities
required to operate the vapor recovery system.
Each of the vapor recovery system modules has also been
separated into several cost cases which address the cost of differ-
ent module sizes or configurations. These cost cases are character-
ized in the following module discussions.
Module A: Ship-to-Shore Connection
Module A consists of the equipment required to transfer
hydrocarbon vapors collected onboard marine vessels to shoreside
vapor recovery units. In cost cases Al, A2, and A3, a 50 ft long
flexible (yet not collapsible) hose is used for the ship-to-shore
connection. The hose is constructed of a gasoline vapor resistant
material and terminates on each end with a standard SCH 40 flange.
The hoses for cost cases Al, A2, and A3 are sized for ship loading
rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph respectively. The
cost of an air driven hoist for hose handling is also included in
each of these three cost cases.
Cost cases A4, A5, and A6 are the cases employing a
hydraulic-actuated loading arm to achieve the ship-to-shore con-
nection. Loading arms for the three cases are sized for ship
loading rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph, respectively.
The cost cases include the costs associated with construction on
crowded existing marine loading docks.
Module B: Vapor Collection Lines
Module B investigates the cost of the equipment required
to convey hydrocarbon vapors from the ship-to-shore connector
(Module A) to the vapor recovery unit (Module C). Cost cases

Bl, B2, and B3 address Che cost of installing short runs of vapor
collection piping from the ship-to-shore collector to dock mounted
vapor absorbers. Pipe fittings, pressure alarms, and safety
equipment are included in the cost. The three cases are sized
for ship loading rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph,
respectively.
Cost cases B4, B5, and B6 address the cost of installing
1000 ft runs of vapor collection piping from the ship-to-shore
connector to centrally-located, shared vapor absorber units. Pipe
fittings, pressure alarms, safety equipment and condensate drains
are included in the cost. The three cost cases are sized for ship
loading rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph, respec-
tively .
Module'-C: Lean- Oil Absorber
The lean oil absorber is a valve tray tower fabricated
out of carbon steel and equipped with a water seal below the bottom
tray. The absorber control system regulates lean oil flow rates
and tower pressure from inputs including effluent hydrocarbon con-
centrations, tower temperature profiles, and tower pressure. An -
automatic N2 purge system is also - associated with the absorber
for purging the tower and vapor collection lines after each ship
loading operation. Auxiliary piping for Module C includes a
water purge line for the absorber water seal and a waste water
drain for the water seal overflow. Cost cases CI, C2, and C3
address the cost for installing absorber towers and associated
equipment sized to control loading rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph,
and 50,000 bph, respectively.
VII-20

-------
Module D: Lean Oil Piping
Module D consists of the piping, valves, and pump
required to transfer lean oil from the refinery storage area
to the absorber. Although the refrigeration system employed
to chill the lean oil is positioned along this piping, it has
been established as Module E. Cost cases D1, D2, and D3 address
the cost for constructing long lengths of insulated piping re-
quired to transfer chilled lean oil from a central refrigeration
unit to individual dock mounted absorbers. These three cost
cases are sized to control ship loading rates of 12,500 bph,
25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph, respectively. Cost cases D4, D5, and
D6 address the cost of lean oil piping from the refinery to a
central absorber located adjacent to the central refrigeration
unit. These three cost cases are sized to control ship loading
rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph, respectively.
Module E: Refrigeration Unit
The refrigeration unit used to chill the lean oil to
40°F prior to contacting gasoline vapors in the absorber comprises
Module E. Heat exchangers, refrigeration units, and a temperature
recorder-controller system are included in the lean oil refriger-
ation unit. Cost cases El, E2, and E3 address the cost of refrig-
eration units sized to control ship loading rates of 12,500 bph,
25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph, respectively
Module F: Compressor-Eductor System
Module F contains the equipment used to motivate gasoline
vapors collected onboard the ship through the vapor control equip-
ment. An air eductor provides the motive force using compressed
air from a dedicated system. The vacuum at the suction of the
VII-21

-------
eductor is approximately -40 inches of water. An air compressor,
air cooler, and air supply lines are also included in Module F.
The discharge pressure of the air compressor is 50 psia. Cost
cases Fl, F2, and F3 represent the construction cost for compressor-
eductor systems on dock-loaded absorbers with ship loading capac-
ities of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph. Cost cases F4,
F5, and F6 represent the construction costs for compressor-eductor
systems on centrally-located common absorbers with ship loading
capacities of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph. The air
compressors for all of the cost cases are centrally located ad-
jacent to the refrigeration system. However, Cost cases Fl, F2,
and F3 require long air supply lines and greater air compressor
capacity to supply compressed air to the distant dock located
eductors. Eductors in Cost cases F4, F5, and F6 are located ad-
jacent to the compressor.
Module G. Rich Oil Piping
Module G consists of the piping, valves, and pumps used
to transfer rich oil from the absorber to the refinery blending
and storage area. Also included in the rich oil piping system is
a system for injection of an anti-oxidant into the rich oil stream
to inhibit any oxidation of the oil by absorbed air. The rich oil
pumping rate is controlled by a level controller in the bottom of
the absorption column. Cost cases Gl, G2, and G3 estimate the
cost of rich oil piping systems which return rich oil to the re-
finery from distant dock located absorbers sized for ship loading
rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph, respectively.
Cost cases G4, G5, and G6 estimate the cost of rich oil piping
systems which return rich oil to the refinery from centrally
located, shared absorbers of the same capacity.
VII-22

-------
Module H. Utilities
Module H consists of the utility connections required
for the operation of the absorption system. These utilities
include electricity and instrument air. Cost cases HI, H2, and
H3 address the cost of utility systems sized to control ship
loading rates of 12,500 bph, 25,000 bph, and 50,000 bph, respec-
tively.
3 . 2	Cost Estimates
Table 3.2-1 presents the cost estimates generated by
Ref-Chem Corporation for the installation of a completely oper-
able absorption vapor recovery system in the Houston-Galveston
area. These cost estimates are based on the absorption vapor
recovery system design basis developed by Radian Corporation
which was outlined in Section 3.1. In developing the cost
estimates for each cost case, Ref-Chem Corporation considered
four cost centers. These cost centers were:
Direct costs
Indirect costs
Contingency allowances
Contractors' fee for overhead and profit
Direct costs include expenditures for labor, materials,
equipment, and subcontractors used in constructing the various
modules. Indirect costs include equipment rentals, consumable
supplies, temporary facilities, support labor, and move in -
move out. Contingency cost was added to the estimate to provide
allowances for cost items not considered elsewhere.
A major cost item not included in the cost estimates
is engineering and design. Consultation with several industrial

sources indicate that engineering and design work on chemical
processing facilities will characteristically cost approximately
10 percent of the construction costs.
3. 3	Cost Analysis
The cost of candidate lean oil absorption vapor
recovery system arrangements for construction in the Houston-
Galveston area can be analyzed by compiling the appropriate cost
estimates for absorption system modules presented in Section 3,2.
Table 3.3-1 presents the construction costs for four candidate
absorption systems. A comparison of the costs for System 1 and
System II indicate that the cost of constructing individual
absorbers on each dock is not appreciably higher than the cost
of constructing central shared absorbers. The cost difference
is approximately 5X of the total construction cost. Individual
absorbers are considered much safer than common absorbers because
they isolate one vessel from another.
Table 3.3-2 summarizes the cost differences between
several absorption systems relative to system capacity. Compari-
son of Systems I, III, and IV indicate that the cost of
absorption systems per unit capacity does not differ significantly
between 12,500 bph capacity units and 50,000 bph capacity units.
The economic impact of absorption systems is similar for both the
smaller and the larger installations. The construction cost for
the design basis absorption systems studied in the program total
approximately $400,000 per 10,000 bph vessel loading capacity.
The data presented in Tables 3.3-1 and 3.3-2 indicate
that the cost of absorption units is approximately 50 percent of
the cost of refrigeration units. However, the absorption unit
design basis developed by Radian Corporation assumed that a large

lean oil supply source was available within the refinery, The
lean oil rate required by the design basis absorption system is
125 gpm per 10,000 bph loading rate. A loading operation which
involves loading two tankers at a combined loading rate of
50,000 bph will require a lean oil flow rate of 600 gpm. The
logistics of deferring such a major portion of a refinery's
lean oil production to the absorption system is a significant
operation change and is likely to be considered impractical.
Without system modifications, the design basis absorption system
is primarily applicable to small marine operations at large re-
fineries where the lean oil demand of the absorption system is
small relative to the refinery lean oil production rate.
A system modification which would make larger absorp-
tion systems compatible with refinery operations is the addition
of lean oil storage capacity dedicated for use in the vapor
recovery system. This lean oil storage capacity can be filled
and emptied at the refinery convenience with minimal disruption
of normal operations. Storage capacity costs are approximately
$0.15 per gallon. A 100,000 bbl storage tank installed with
associated equipment will cost approximately $600,000, The cost
of lean oil storage capacity will very likely place the cost of
lean oil absorption systems in the jame range as the cost for
refrigeration systems: approximately $800,000 per 10,000 bph
of marine loading capacity.

18. ABSTRACT
This report presents results of a study to develop background information necessary
for the accurate assessment of hydrocarbon emissions from ship and barge loading and
unloading of gasoline and crude oil. The report assesses marine terminal facilities,
marine terminal operations, cruise history and product movement statistics, hydro-
carbon emission rates and characteristics, control technology state of the art, safety
considerations of marine terminal control technology and economics of controlling
marine terminal emissions. The report also includes the results of a detailed cost
analysis for a refrigeration and an absorption marine terminal vapor recovery system.
Data gathering activities focused on the Houston-Galveston area; however, information
was also assembled on hydrocarbon emissions from marine terminal operations in the
metropolitan Los Angeles area generated by handling of gasoline and crude oils,
including Alaskan north slope crude.
