This paper describes how a switchgear modernization project in a major petrochemical and refining process opened the door to new methods of integration between substation protection and process safety automation. It explores how a risk mitigation project's need for a Safety Instrumented Function (SIF) to detect a refinery wide power outage used the technology the modernization project provided without adding new equipment. Traditional practices used in the refining industry keep electrical substation protection and process safety automation separate, but microprocessor technology allows for the integration of these two fields of practice. This method of integrating process safety into electrical equipment introduces a need for electrical manufacturers to learn and follow the regulations used in process safety automation in order for their equipment to be used in Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS). The combination of these two fields of practice and their associated projects allowed fewer components to be installed and therefore less cost while maintaining reliability and maintainability. The paper will explore the design efforts to combine the projects, the challenges to modify the equipment and the process used to commission the equipment and demonstrate that the system worked as expected.

The applications which will be discussed in this paper are part of the renewal of oil and gas production in the Cook Inlet of Alaska. It is anticipated that at least 50 wells will be converted from gas lift to electric submersible pumps (ESP's) over the next several years. The renewal has begun, with the first 14 drives having been installed and in operation.

Series pumps are used to boost oil flow in pipeline applications. Motors for these applications can be used in numerous configurations, both fixed speed and variable. Using operational data from a large pipeline company's historical database, various configurations will be investigated and analyzed. A typical three electrical motor series pumping configuration with different control methods will be compared for efficiency, reliability, total life cycle cost, and operability. The following configurations will be studied: . Three motors at fixed speed . Two motors at fixed speed with one motor modulating pressure with variable speed control . Three motors all controlled at variable speed Conclusions will also include the company's actual experience with implementing the above different types of controls based on existing electrical infrastructure and process control issues.
