[Narrator]

The way in which we process our oil goes as follows... We start with distillation. The molecules in crude oil are split up into different components, based on different boiling points. This happens in a distillation tower. We heat the crude oil to a temperature of about 350 degrees Centigrade, which causes the lightest molecules or fractions to evaporate. This vapour then rises in the tower. The higher up in the tower, the lower the temperature. Thus, condensation will ensue causing the gaseous molecules to turn back into fluids at different heights.

[Narrator]

Moreover, we can turn almost all crude oil into lighter products. To this end, we use not only distillation but also cracking processes. Through heat and catalysts, we crack the molecular chains, as it were, in order to produce smaller and lighter components. These products can then be used for petrol, kerosene or diesel. Our aim is to keep reducing safety hazards.

Title:  opvolging incident

Duration: 5:46 minutes

Description:

On Saturday July 29^th 2017, an incident occurred at Royal Shell’s Pernis refinery, the largest in Europe. A fire started in a power supply station leading to a power outage affecting a number of units. Shell Pernis shut down most of its production units in a safe and prompt manner, resulting in flaring which is part of the safety system when units are taken out of operation.

 

Late on Monday, there was a second incident; a hydrogen fluoride leak while one of the units which had been taken offline was being flushed – a necessary cleaning measure after the fire. The source of the leak was identified, while no hazardous concentration was measured outside the site. All appropriate agencies were notified and there were no injuries associated with this incident. In this video, we talk to Jos Van Winsen to follow up on the incidents.

ONDERZOEKSRESULTATEN INCIDENTEN SHELL PERNIS

[Interviewer voiceover]

Last July, Shell Pernis experienced two incidents which had a large impact in the near vicinity. On 29th July, a short-circuit in a high voltage station led to the complete shutdown of nearly all the plants. Two days later, a hydrogen fluoride pipeline sprang a leak, which caused gas to escape to the outside air.

General Manager Shell Pernis

[Video footage]

Close-up of Jos Van Winsen speaking to off-screen interviewer at an interior location, behind him a large image of a refinery and a female walking past.

Jos Van Winsen

On the night of 29th July, a high voltage station to my right had a short-circuit. This led to the breakdown of numerous electrical systems. This always causes plants to shut down automatically. When a plant shuts down, we must safely dispose of any gas that is present. Safety systems send the gas to the torch, so the torch will burn with an extremely large flame. Normally, we add steam to avoid any soot production. But due to the domino effect of the power outing, we didn't have enough steam so we couldn't add steam to the torch, which, as a consequence, produced more soot than normal. The power outing has caused the shutdown of a number of plants. We then had to shut down more systems to relieve the power station. Once we had closed down that part of the refinery, we have decided to shut down the rest of the refinery in a controlled way. This went well.

Camera pans left to focus in on several of the fuse cabinets which have various displays on the front. Back to close-up of Jos Van Winsen.

 

Interviewer

What caused the short-circuit?

 

Jos Van Winsen

A power station like that has an enormous number of connections, but it is a high-voltage station at 25,000 volts so you have heavy cables with high-tech connectors, so to say, which are quite a bit larger and serious than your household connectors. They connect cables and in one of them, a failure occurred - a short-circuit. At 25,000 volts, a short-circuit causes an arc to form with fire as a result, so we had to put out a fire in that station.

Jos Van Winsen

The real cause of the failure of this bus duct connector has been under investigation for some months now by the DNV-GL, ex KEMA, but we still don't have a clear idea.

Interviewer

Then what happened on 31st July?

 

Jos Van Winsen

On 31st July, two days after the controlled shutdown of the refinery, we had a minor leak in a pipeline at another plant, causing hydrogen fluoride with butane to escape. About 90kg of hydrogen fluoride,

A strong acid, and 350kg of butane have escaped from a 20mm leak.

 

[Video footage]

Back to close-up of Jos Van Winsen now standing behind a round table. On the table, a model of a cross section of yellow piping.

 

Interviewer

What caused this leak?

 

Jos Van Winsen

I have ordered a model, because it was a combination of factors. With that plant, after starting up... there is a connecting tube between two pieces. Normally, the joints are sealed on both sides with so-called spectacle flanges. One of the spectacle flanges was left open, so the tube was in an open connection with the pipeline containing HF-butane.

 

[Video footage]

Zoom in on the model as Jos Van Winsen gesticulates. Back to close-up of Jos Van Winsen standing behind the table with the model. Back to close-up of the model as Jos Van Winsen points to various parts of the pipe. Close-up of Jos Van Winsen opening and closing the spectacle flanges on the model. He then lifts the cross section up at one end and points to the T-section at one end of the pipe.

 

Jos Van Winsen

This in itself is not a problem, but after the shutdown, because this pipe was slightly sloping, like this - it was slightly exaggerated - there was a small puddle of water after the shutdown. That was not properly disposed of. HF and water form a very aggressive acid, which burned through the metal and caused a leak. As I said, when a leak occurs, the plant has many sensors in place to detect a HF or butane leak. The sensors tripped, and we have safety systems to create water curtains around any leaks to neutralise the outflow. The fire brigade targeted the spot with a water cannon. The escalation with the Veiligheidsraad functioned well, so we managed to contain the HF butane mixture within the compound.

 

[Video footage]

Wide-angled shot panning left to right across the Pernis site.

 

Interviewer

Were the two incidents related?

 

Jos Van Winsen

No, they weren't. Since the shutdown in 2015, the flange had been in the wrong position and there was a bit of water. It had been corroding for a year and a half and, incidentally, it caused this leak. It could have happened a few days earlier or a few days later. The connection tube is inspected regularly and it has always been marked as safe, so its age is not an issue. But since a spectacle flange was left open and there was some water inside - two very unusual situations - this was what happened.

 

[Video footage]

Back to close-up of Jos Van Winsen and the model. Zoom in on the model as Jos Van Winsen points to the T-section. Back to close-up of Jos Van Winsen and the model.

It has been said that these two incidents are below Shell's standards. Is it still safe to be here on the site?

 

[Video footage]

Exterior shot panning left to right across the Pernis site. Back to close-up of Jos Van Winsen and the model.

 

Jos Van Winsen

Yes, it is safe to be here. We do everything we can, hence we carry out these studies to learn what has gone wrong and to see what we can learn from it. And we include all of this in our processes, and it's expected of our employees and in the checks we do to continually seek improvements. We do this together with our colleagues in the Botlek area and throughout Shell. We learn from each other in order to be better neighbours.

[Joost de Jong, Cleaning & Waste Coördinator Tankenteam]

In het verleden gingen de mensen naar binnen om een tank schoon te maken. Normaal zijn er vier mensen daar acht tot tien uur per dag in de tank door de sludge heen te lopen. Met adembescherming en onder hele zware omstandigheden. En toen hebben we bekeken, wat zijn dan de mogelijkheden om dat te voorkomen, dat het beter kan worden. En zijn we eigenlijk op de robot uitgekomen als beste vervanging, om in de toekomst tanks schoon te maken.

[Hans Molkenboer, Projectleider Rohrer]

Dit apparaat gaat door middel van de rupswielen richting de tank en dan in de tank. Eenmaal in de tank wordt er gezogen door de pijp en dat wordt vervolgens afgevoerd naar de vacuümwagen.

00:43

[Joost de Jong]

We zijn eigenlijk samen om de tafel gaan zitten en hebben gezegd, welke manieren zijn er wereldwijd. We hebben eigenlijk alle manieren die er zijn bekeken, we zijn op verschillende locaties wezen kijken. En ja, je kunt terugvallen op het oude dat er al bestaat. Maar we willen eigenlijk een stap vooruit maken. En daar is deze robot, ja, een prachtig voorbeeld van.

[Hans Molkenboer]

Vervolgens hebben we overal nog camera's geplaatst. De camera's zijn er voor dat je zowel aan de achterkant als aan de voorkant kunt zien wat er gebeurt. Want er is niemand bij, in die tank.

 

01:11

[Videobeelden onder tekst geïnterviewde De Jong]

6.1          Op voorgrond geïnterviewde De Jong, achtergrond robot met de twee blauwe containers, steiger rechts ernaast en stroomkabel tussen robot en de blauwe container.

6.3          Close-up van in beeld rijdende robot richting ingang tank.

 

01:11

[Joost de Jong]

Nou, het grote voordeel op HSE-gebied, dat er geen mensen meer in hoeven. Maar in de loop van de tijd zal het zeker sneller gaan worden, dan we nu doen. En ja, dan is het ook goedkoper.

 

01:21

[Videobeelden onder tekst geïnterviewde De Jong]

7.1          Zelfde als 6.3: close-up van in beeld rijdende robot richting ingang tank.

01:21

[Joost de Jong]

Het is uniek voor Shell. Bij Shell Nederland is het voor het eerst nu en we gaan dit ook zeker wereldwijd uitdragen. Als het dan een succes is, kan het op de andere locaties ook gebruikt gaan worden.
