Nitrogen:

Nitrogen is typically used for blanketing storage tanks: During shutdown periods, compressors, pipelines and reactors may be inerted to prevent equipment degradation. Nitrogen can also be used for pressure transfer of products between storage vessels, units or into shipping (transport) vessels. Nitrogen supply can be achieved in different modes, including cylinders, bulk liquid, onsite membrane units (FLOXAL™), onsite cryogenic assisted units (FLOXAL™, APSA™), and via pipeline supply.

Nitrogen Production Modules for oil recovery in Under-Balanced Drilling: High pressure nitrogen provides a low down-hole hydrostatic pressure. Mobile nitrogen membrane production units safely provide inert gas (95 % N₂) at 12 bar which can be booted to the required pressure.

Oxygen:

Feedstock capacity expansion projects and processing of resid feeds in Fluid Catalytic Cracking Units (FCCUs) continues to grow. The number of FCCU’s utilizing oxygen to achieve these objectives is more than 25 worldwide. Refiners have used pure oxygen to enrich the FCCU regenerator combustion air up to 28 % volume. This technology should lead to a capacity increase of over 25 % or a resid increase of 10 %. The modifications required to install the oxygen injection apparatus are minor and can be performed between unit turnarounds.
