Liquefied natural gas is methane with some ethane possibly mixed in cooled down to -162 degC (-260 degF) to transition the gas into a liquid state. It is liquefied: …for ease and safety of non-pressurized storage or transport. It takes up about 1/600th the volume of natural gas in the gaseous state… In a Tank […]
It’s been a struggle catching up after a busy CERAWeek last week and a Spring Break week, this week in Austin. Let’s close this short week with a look at one of the very accurate level measurement technologies—non-contacting radar. In this short 3+ minute YouTube video, Non-contacting Radar: Simple configuration with Rosemount 5408, Emerson’s Jimmie […]
Let’s end the week with a quick look at how some instrumentation protects against intermittent power outages. This short, 1-minute Youtube video, How to Secure Safe Operations During Power Outages shows the power reserve function of the Rosemount 5408 level transmitter which ensures safe operations even during power outages. Visit the level measurement area on […]
Last year during the epic rains of Hurricane Harvey, more than 15 floating roof storage tanks in the Texas Gulf coast region failed during this record-setting storm.
