NATURAL GAS FLOW ANALYSIS

Pharmaceutical Manufacturer, Virginia


Study project to field measure and then model the natural gas (NG) piping system at the plant as needed to

- Seek a cause and remedy for the gas supply “starvation” the end of line generators experience under certain circumstances.

- Analyze the impact of planned generator installations, as well as other planned or potential future takeoff loads, on the system.


Our survey and analysis discovered an undersized flow meter orifice plate in an elevated exterior pipe rack crossing a road.  This work resulted in a very low cost solution to the company’s NG flow problem.

PIPING & TANK NOZZLE FLEXIBILITY ANALYSIS
Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma


Analysis and design of modified connections to four aboveground jet fuel storage tanks, per API 650, Annex P method.  Work was performed as part of a design-build project.  Corish Engineering served as the prime A/E’s mechanical engineer performing piping and tank nozzle flexibility analysis.

"Socialism, like the old policy from which it emanates, confounds Government and society. And so, every time we object to a thing being done by Government, it concludes that we object to its being done at all. We disapprove of education by the State—then we are against education altogether. We object to a State religion—then we would have no religion at all. We object to an equality which is brought about by the State then we are against equality, etc., etc. They might as well accuse us of wishing men not to eat, because we object to the cultivation of corn by the State."

"Socialism in general has a record of failure so blatant that only an intellectual could ignore or evade it."

REFUELER RAMP AND SITE GRADING

Overseas Air Force Base


First of a series of projects for the USAF Area on the host nation base.  This project constructs a new refueler parking apron of approximately 160,000 square meters.  Corish Engineering provided design of 12" stainless steel fuel pipeline loop below new aircraft apron, including pits for aircraft refueling at 20 positions, isolation valves and high point vents.  Hydrant fueling system to be completed in follow-on project.

CURRENT PROJECTS​
