GAS USAGE & VALUEby Dr. Duncan Seddon

Gas Usage and Value addresses issues concerned with the development and sale of natural gas resources. The text overviews the world’s gas reserves and outlines the principal issues concerning composition and the cost of producing well head gas to make a specification product or extract particular components; operation and cost of gas plants; and the cost of transporting the gas to an end-user. Separate chapters deal with the use of gas in the downstream process industries. Gas usages for various technologies are described and alternatives are critically compared. Costs for the downstream process industries are described on a self-consistent basis that allows comparison of alternatives. Estimates are presented for each technology on the cost of production as the gas price changes. Case studies are included to illustrate variations or specific points of relevance.

DRY GAS SEALS HANDBOOK by John Stahley

Despite the fact that the use of dry gas seals in process gas centrifugal compressors has increased dramatically over the last 20 years, the technology remains misunderstood by many in the industry. Dry gas seals operate with clearances measured in microns, much less than the thickness of a human hair! While dry gas seals can be very problematic if not properly applied at the time of plant, process, and/or compressor design, the many successful installations are a testament to how trouble-free these devices can be when properly applied.

STRAIGHT TO THE BOTTOM LINE: AN EXECUTIVE’S ROADMAP TO WORLD CLASS SUPPLY MANAGEMENTby Robert Rudzki, Douglas Smock, Michael Katzorke and Shelley Stewart Jr.J. Ross Publishing

During the past 20 years, the procurement and supply chain profession has radically evolved. Once a tactical and back-office function, it is now a strategic business opportunity that can be fundamental to the success of any organization. A few leading companies have achieved an enormous competitive advantage and outstanding bottom-line performance by incorporating a procurement and supply chain strategy into their core corporate strategy. Why haven’t more companies seized this same opportunity? The reason is very simple: a lack of understanding at the senior executive level. Virtually all books on procurement and supply chain have been written for the day-to-day practitioner. Now, there is a book to explain this opportunity to all corporate executives, and also illustrate the leadership role the senior executive needs to play. Straight to the Bottom Line will enable senior corporate executives to turn the enormous top-line and bottom-line potential of supply chain and procurement into reality.

Lieberman draws from his 30 years of experience in solving process equipment and operating problems and details specific steps when troubleshooting process operations with an approach that is rooted in practical experience and not in theoretical concepts. Further, he focuses on common refinery malfunctions and failures engineers and operators confront daily. Each chapter concludes with a valuable troubleshooting checklist. This book is used as the text in Lieberman's popular refinery troubleshooting seminar.

Contents:• Crude distillation • Vacuum distillation • Delayed coking • Light ends fractionation • Fluid cracking • Amine systems • Sulfur recovery • Alkylation • Sweetening • Mercaptain extraction • Fired heaters • Vacuum jets • Centrifugal pumps • Compressors • Reboilers • Condensers • Energy conservation • Control strategies • Shell and tube exchangers • How to run a performance test and many other subjects critical to refinery operations and field troubleshooting

PROGRESSING CAVITY PUMPS, DOWNHOLE PUMPS AND MUDMOTORSby Lev Nelik, PhD, PE APICS and Jim R. Brennan

This publication describes the fundamentals of progressing cavity (PC) pumps. Although formally classified by the Hydraulic Institute as a single-screw type, a subset (group) of the rotary class pumps, they are better known as PC pumps and are used in a wide variety of applications. They are especially suited for tough, nasty, multiphase fluids with gas and solids in suspension, at relatively moderate temperatures. The formal approach to analyzing and understanding these types of pumps and mudmotors is just begining to emerge, but it is still more art than science. There is no universally accepted nomenclature to denote major and minor diameters, eccentricity, rotor/stator fits, or thermal shrink rates. The nomenclature used in this book is a first atempt to unify and standardize such symbols, with the goal of eventually being incorporated into the ISO standard to benefit publications and to facilitate communication within the technical community.

From “How to Sell Technical Equipment and Services” by James R. Hutton

With expensive capital goods, as well as with minor items, clearly the fear of making a mistake or buying the wrong product is uppermost in the customer’s mind. It is pervasive, and the customer thinks about this almost constantly. Before he puts his signature on the order, requisition, or recommendation, he must be convinced beyond a doubt that he has made the right decision and that less, or no risk, is involved in going with your product and your company.

It follows then that reliability, higher efficiency, dependability, and trouble-free performance should be your strongest argument during your promotion calls, your sales presentations, and your sales letters. Support this by taking your customers to visit your facility and plants of satisfied customers, by showing them a users list of satisfied customers, and by arranging phone calls or other conversations with satisfied users.
