Alaska Oil & Gas Cons. Commission
Anchorage
Date: O1/11/O1
Flare Volume: 681
Assist Gas Volume: 170
Event description
MPU experienced a shutdown of the 08 turbine power generator. This resulted in a load shedding
of various equipment.
Note•
The flare transmitter was out for annual maintenance at the time of this event. Data from a similar
flare event that occurred on 12/01/00 was used to assist with the volume calculation for the
O1/11/O1 event. Trends on all flare valves off the production vessels for the 12/01/00 & 1/11/Ol
were used to calculate the volume. All of these tools were then used to calculate the unknown rate
for O1/11/O1.
Action taken to stop flaring
The maintenance personnel were dispatched to the turbine to troubleshoot the equipment problem.
The following wells were shut-in to mitigate the flaring: K-2,5,6,13,17,30,37,38; C-4,5,7,9; B-
3,4,6,9,10,15,20,21,22. A connection to the vibration sensor (XE-0806) was found loose. RTV was
used to keep the connection from coming loose again. After turbine cooled down, it was restarted
and no abnormal vibration was detected. All compressors was started and the flare stopped.
Action taken to prevent reoccurrence
Vibration caused the connection to slowly back off until it lost connection. Use of the RTV should
keep this from reoccurring.

Flare Volume: 3426
Assist Gas Volume: 819
There was an unplanned flaring event when the gas compression plant shutdown due to a high
liquid level in a compressor suction scrubber. The shutdown was extended due to the failure of 2
control relays.
Action taken to stow flaring
All high GOR wells were shut-in to decrease the flare volume. The compressor suction scrubber
level was drained to the normal operating level. Maintenance Technicians were dispatched to
troubleshoot the cause of our inability to gain a clear start permissive for the gas compressors. The
Maintenance Technicians found and replaced 2 failed control relays which enabled the gas
compressors to be started. All Gas Compressors were restarted and the flaring stopped.
Action taken to prevent reoccurrence
A Maintenance Technician is investigating and correcting the problem of not receiving a high level
alarm for the affected suction scrubber, which would have alerted us to the rising liquid level.

There was an unplanned flaring event when the 08-generator shutdown on local ESD switch trip.
During routine maintenance ESD switch was bumped. The facility and field did a load shed of
power from this shutdown. Maintenance personnel were expedited to restart the turbine.
Action taken to stop flaring
The load shed partially shutdown gas compression and both water injection trains. One gas train at
CFP stayed on line during this load shed. The 08 turbine was restarted and all systems were brought
back to their normal condition. The flaring stopped.
Action taken to prevent reoccurrence
ESD trip switches inside turbine enclosure will be replaced with new style. Until new switches
arrive on site existing switches have temporary covers installed.

MPU experienced a shutdown of the 08 turbine power generator. This resulted in a load shedding
of various equipment.
Action taken to stop t7aring
Maintenance personnel were dispatched to troubleshoot the turbine shutdown. The following wells
were shut-in to mitigate the flaring: K-2,5,6,13,17,30,33,37,38; C-3,4,7,9,14,22,26; B-
3,4,10,16,20,21,22; E-6,14,24,30; F-38,50,78,80; G-4; H-5,8,12; J-1,3,8,9,19,23,24; L-3,6,7. The
turbine shutdown alarm was a Generator Failure Fast Stop. There are 3 different inputs that could
have caused this shutdown. After the turbine generator was completely checked it was restarted. No
abnormal conditions were detected. All compressors were started and the flare stopped.
Action taken to prevent reoccurrence
Traps were installed in the PLC to capture which inputs caused the shutdown if it happens again.

The battery charger in Mod 56 went into a high charge rate for the battery bank. Hydrogen gas was
detected and the ventilation system cleared the alarm. The charger was left at high charge rate. The
charger did not shut-off after charging the battery bank and caused the DC voltage to the PLC to be
increased. The PLC power supply shutdown due to the high DC voltage to protect it's self and
thereby shutting down both of our turbine electric power generators (07 and 08). This caused a total
field-wide shutdown at Milne Point.
Action taken to stop flaring
The initial shutdown depressurized the whole plant. The two power generators have a 2-hour
cooling period from the fast shutdown. We brought in cooling fans to help cool-down the turbines.
After the 2-hour period we brought gas in from our gas well for a restart. The assist gas was
increased to help with the flaring and black smoke. The gas lift compressor was started and we
started bringing back the wells. The IWAG was started and fluids brought back into the vessels for
normal operation.
Action taken to prevent reoccurrence
Maintenance was tasked with ordering a new battery charger for the Mod 56 battery room and a
replacing the other battery chargers around the plant and the field.

At approx. 09:52 hours the battery charger in Mod 56 went to high charge rate and the DC voltage
increased to the point of shutting down the power supply for the PLC control. This caused both of
the 07 & 08 power turbine generators to shutdown. This created afield-wide or Level 3 shutdown at
Milne Point. The 07 turbine locked up because of the fast shutdown and has a 2 hr. waiting period.
We started 08 turbine but it shutdown a few minutes later because of the battery charger going to a
high DC voltage rate. We also were having problems with our control room computers locking up the
screen.
Action taken to stop flaring
The discussion was made to run a temporary power cable from the adjoining Mod. 57-battery
charger to the Mod 56 power box and thereby eliminating the defective charger in Mod 56. After
the temp. Connection (until a new charger arrives) the generators were brought back on line and we
started to bring up the field and the plant to normal operations. We had several minor start-up
problems with equipment and were back on line at approx. 20:00 hrs.
Action taken to prevent reoccurrence
Maintenance was tasked with ordering a new battery charger for the Mod 56 battery room and the
temporary hook-up to Mod. 57's battery charger should eliminate this reoccurrence.

The Compressor Intake air Temperature (CIT) sensor (TE-08100) failed at approximately 18:46
on 09110/2001. This caused a fast stop of the turbine causing aload-shed condition. The rotor
on the gas producer locked for approximately 2.5 to 3 hours. The cause of the CIT failure was
coking build up on the probe. Unplanned flaring began at approximately 18:46 as a result of the
sensor failure and continued for approximately 5 hr 44 min. Intermittent black smoke was emitted
from the CFP flare for the first 58 minutes of the flaring event.

The plant and field had been ramped down for the scheduled slowdown and repair work. At
approx. 06:42 they were preparing tt) do the fire and gas preventative maintanCe work and were
pulling relays in the fire and gas cabinet. A relay was pulled which caused a level 3 shutdown of
the fuel gas system. This caused the running turbine (07) to switch to liquid fuel (diesel) and the
kilowatt level was greater than the allowable amount. It was in emission excursion for approx. 1
hr. 47 minutes. The level. 3 shutdown also caused the on line gas compression machine to
shutdown. This caused an intermittent black smoke event and also a greater than 1 hour flaring
event before the machines were brought back on line at approx. 08:37 for the gas lift compressor
(Big A) and 09:13 for the gas injection compressor (Little 6). The flaring stopped at approx.
09:15 hours. There was intermittent black smoke on and off from 06:42 for 2hr because the
assist gas was off from the fuel gas shutdown.

Event description
Date: 09/28/00
Flare Volume: 177.9
Assist Gas Volume: 87.9
MPU experienced an unplanned gas compressor shutdown. The cause was a faulty manual valve
between the oil filters. We had half of second and third stage gas compression shut down for
maintenance work. Support crews were called out to locate the cause and make repairs.
Action taken to stop flaring
Immediate response to the compressor shut down by maintenance crew. Wells B3, B9, B i 0, B 15,
B20, B21, B22, C5, C7, & C9 were shut in to mitigate flaring. The compressor was checked & put
back in service. Flaring was eliminated shortly after the compressor returned to service.
Action taken to prevent reoccurrence
Maintenance personnel will pull valve to check for faults and make recommendations on a path
forward. They will research the need for a new valve and replace if needed. This should help prevent it
from happening again.

Due to some tie-in work needing to be done for KEOR , IWAG I was S/D. After the tie-in was
complete, IWAG 1 was restarted, it developed a leak on the main cooling water pump due to a seal
failure and had to be shutdown for maintenance.
Action taken to stop flaring
The following wells were shut-in to help mitigate the flaring:
B15,B9,B4,B21,B22,C3,C4,CS,C9,C14,C26,C41,C22,E25,E30,F33,L3. maintenance personnel
were dispatched to repair the seal failure on the cooling water pump.

At approx. 01:41 hours, a total field-wide shutdown was caused by a level switch low /low reading
on tank T-5711 the Cooling Medium Expansion Tank. The low level alarm that would normally alert
to a shutdown level in the tank failed to trip. The low level and subsequent shutdown caused a
Level 4 Shutdown. The 0701 and 0801 turbine generators shutdown on a fast shutdown, which
requires a 2-hour, waiting period prior to re-start. Several additional time-delay problems occurred
due to the initial shutdown. Around 07:30 problems were encountered with the Little B injection
compressor and the alternate injection compressor was down for maintenance. There were
problems getting the IWAG running because of the lack of heat at C-pad from the extended initial
shutdown, facilitated by extremely cold ambient temperatures. It was suspected that black smoke
was emitted intermittently due to periodic short-term flaring during the shutdown and subsequent
start up periods.
Action taken to stop flaring
Production was shut in during facility shut down and gas lift wells were shut in to minimize flaring.
Production was minimized during start up to minimize flaring as well.
Action taken to prevent reoccurrenceThe LSLL (low level alarm system) was checked for correct
operation and no problems were found. A Management of Change process will be initiated to install
a level transmitter on the tank so that personnel can observe tank levels prior to the alarm switch
tripping. Further review of the shutdown logic will also be conducted in an attempt to determine
nature of failure.
