Welcome to Abu Dhabi!

                   Dear conference attendees,

                   For the 7th time now, PCIC Europe association organizes PCIC Middle East
                   conference, a knowledge sharing event for Electrical and Automation engineers in
                   the Petroleum, Chemical and Pharmaceutical
                   Industry. Last year was my first time to visit Abu Dhabi InterContinental hotel and I
must say that I was positively surprised by the interactions during the program as well as the
networking during the breaks and the hospitality event. My hope, expressed in my 2018 introduction
has come true. It was an enthusiastic atmosphere with active listening audience and good discussion
before closing a topic.

Also this year we continue with the Event Mobi App to help you go through the conference schedule,
download the papers and rate them to help us improve the content. Not to forget that the App also
provides visibility to our sponsors, without whom we would not be able to organize this event. I repeat
from what I wrote last year: the PCIC Europe committee, who organizes PCIC Middle East is a non for
profit organization. This means that we are financially dependent on the application fees and sponsors.
During the last 5 years we have been able to balance the costs with the incomes and we hope to do so
today and in the future. Maybe you have noticed that we also have a new website. In the future this
website should enable us to give you better accessibility to the knowledge content that the association
has collected during the past 16 years, one of the foundations of PCIC Europe and PCIC Middle-East.

We continue to have only one session at a time, to allow all participants to attend all presentations. I
thank the technical committee for the review of all papers to ensure quality, novelty of technical
subjects and in depth knowledge sharing in both Electrical as well as Automation and especially also
Digitization. If you are interested to join this committee, then please contact one of the executive
committee members, who are present during the event.

Allen Gibson and the local team have been motivated by your responses last year to again collect a
challenging technical program including tutorial. With the same team as last year, I trust the
organization is in good hands. I wish you lots of learning, interesting new contacts and an enjoyable
stay in Abu Dhabi.

Regards,

Peter Pieters

Greetings from the Technical Committee and Local Organizing Committee

                 2019 marks the 7th Annual PCIC Middle East. We want to help you achieve the most
                 benefit from this conference, and we encourage you actively participate in the
                 conference in the following ways:

    •   Download and login to the PCIC Middle East app on your phone, tablet and/or computer
    •   Actively participate in the 9 technical presentations and ask questions during the allotted Q &
        A time
    •   Engage with the 2 tutorial presenters to gain the most knowledge and also to share your
        experiences – these tutorials are interactive learning opportunities
    •   Be prepared for the 2 panel discussions (Harmonics Safeguard and Good Maintenance
        Practice), where the expert group of panelists will engage with questions from the audience
        on these important subjects
    •   Rate each technical presentation and tutorial using the conference app – your inputs are
        valuable to the committees as we select the most appreciated authors and presenters, and
        also as we consider topics for future conferences
    •   Enjoy the networking time during coffee breaks, lunch and the networking reception by
        meeting new industry experts, introducing yourself to younger attendees to encourage their
        growth, and visiting our conference sponsors to learn about how they may help.
    •   Most importantly – have fun and make new friends in this great industry we all serve.

Our Technical Committee and Local Committee are 100% volunteer based. If you are interested to
serve our industry by becoming active in either a technical or organizing committee, we invite you to
contact any of our Committee Members to learn more.

I would like to say thank you to our authors and presenters. As an industry-focused learning and
knowledge-sharing conference, we all rely on the expertise of these industry peers that make the
commitment to research, write and present the technical content for PCIC Middle East. If you would
like to be an author or presenter at a future conference, the time is now!

          resulting in a substantial reduction in CO2 emissions.
          In order to efficiently and cost effectively execute a drive train revamp project

          expertise and pre-engineering are required to analyze all relevant mechanical,
          structural, and electrical interfaces, as well as utilities, in order to determine
          technical feasibility. This paper will discuss when it makes technical sense to
          replace a steam turbine with an electric drive and outline the many benefits
          that can be realized by doing so. It will also discuss executional steps and
          considerations from concept to start of operation, using lessons learned from
          real-world revamp projects.

          This is crucial to achieve the full protection of all generator plant assets with
          the best fitting generator breaker according to the latest Standard.
          This paper is aimed right to explain the Standard prescriptions about
          generator circuit breaker assessment and selection, after a brief technical
          background, to provide an overview on the main tools currently used for this
          purpose and, finally, what are the main customer benefits coming from this
          approach.

          For medium voltage motors and generators, the insulation system has to               General Electric
          operate at nominal voltage and F-class condition of temperature at least 20
          years. It is well known that the corona activity due to medium voltage above         Corentin Laurent
          3kV and temperature effect impact the lifetime of the insulation. A                   General Electric
          combination of Vacuum Pressure Impregnated Epoxy Anhydride resin with a
          new arrangement of conductive armor and stress grading tape is proposed              Saeed Haq
          and compared to conventional designs up to 15.9kV. An ultraviolet camera             General Electric
          captures the partial discharges activities created by the ionization of the air
          up to breakdown. The corona discharges are strongly reduced with this new
          insulation system. Besides the AC high potential tests, DMA, 400-hour voltage
          endurance tests and thermal classification tests are also performed,
          highlighting a better behavior of the proposed insulation being a good
          candidate for line fed and variable speed drive configurations.

          Offshore oil & gas drilling platforms are typically isolated systems with onsite   ETAP
          generation primarily consisting of gas turbines. These turbines have an energy
          conversion efficiency comparable to renewable energy conversion technology,
          around 30%, versus onshore gas turbines with efficiency greater than 50%.
          Climate change is the key driver to revisit CO2 and NOX emissions from these
          gas turbines near pristine ocean waters and replace them with clean energy
          as the primary generation source. Potential benefits of supplementing fossil
          fuel based power generation with renewable energy is explored in this
          theoretical case study where a power generation controller algorithm is
          developed such that renewable energy is given higher priority and energy
          ‘gaps/dips’ are filled in by fossil fuel.
          Time domain simulation is used to test the controller from power system
          stability, reliability sensitivity perspective. Further optimization of energy
          usage and higher renewable energy penetration is analyzed with the use of
          energy storage device and DC distribution network.

          High speed generator and motor failures due to stator endwinding vibration         Portlands Energy Centre
          have become more prominent in recent years due to extensive repair costs as
          well as lost production that are often associated with such failures. The          Mladen Sasic
          vibration is a response to the electromagnetic forces created by the current in    Iris Power
          the stator windings. Excessive vibration levels can be attributed to loosening
          of the support system or mechanical resonance where the structural natural
          frequencies coincide with the frequency of the electromagnetic force.
          Insulation abrading or failure by copper fatigue can result if left for an
          extended period of time. IEC 60034-32 describes methods to monitor
          endwinding vibration on-line with fiber optic sensors in a way that the onset of
          looseness can be identified and the support structure repaired in a timely
          manner. A 288 MVA, 21 kV steam turbine driven air cooled generator with
          endwinding vibration data prior to and after a system event that led to the
          loosening of the support structure was trended on-line until suitable repairs
          could be made and the vibration levels returned to normal.

          In this paper we talk about influence of digitalization in process industries and   Siemens AG
          how it can be adapted to Medium Voltage Motors & drive systems. Various
          aspects of digitalization like monitoring, preventive maintenance and using
          detailed simulations will be discussed in details.
          Data logging and monitoring of critical parameters will give clear picture of
          the drive system conditions. Automated analysis of this data can be used to
          prevent any unplanned shutdown. Detailed information about medium voltage
          drive train analytics will be provided.
          Simulation models can be used to analyse complex drive system topics which
          can not be tested physically in test field like Voltage dips or protective
          measures in case of short circuits. Also simulations can be used to reduce the
          risk during commissioning by performing pre commissioning studies. This
          helps to identify the project specific drive system parameters prior to
          commissioning. Examples of each of these cases will be provided.
          Whether you want to monitor one component or the entire drive train, Drive
          Train analytics can be tailored to grow with customer needs and continuously
          monitor installed components.

           under planned or emergency conditions. Case studies of live, in-service          Murty Yalla
           transfers prove the consistently reliable and smooth nature of the synchronous   Beckwith Electric Company
           transfers, employing a new torque ratio criterion as a measure of success.
           However, the widely-used residual voltage (slow) transfer method closes the
           alternate source breaker when the motor bus voltage falls to about 25% rated,
           paying NO attention to the phase angle between the disconnected motor bus
           and the alternate source. A large phase angle at close causes damaging
           torques and can result in premature motor failure and mechanical failures, and
           loss of process.
           Dynamic conditions that occur immediately prior to and during bus transfer
           are presented and revealed in the field data, linking their relevance to
           application of motor bus transfer methods.
