Sampling systems chosen for Swedish refineries

Jiskoot has supplied three Co-Jetix sampling systems to Independent Inspection Services AB, to replace the manifold samplers installed at the Preem, Gothenburg and Scanraff, Lysekil refineries.

Jiskoot has supplied three Co-Jetix sampling systems to Independent Inspection Services AB of Sweden for installation at the Preem, Gothenburg and Scanraff, Lysekil refineries to replace the manifold samplers previously installed in loading arms. Installed in the horizontal 32 inch pipelines from the jetty to the refineries, the Co-Jetix systems will sample a wide range of crude oils. They were specified by IIS as part of its contract to provide custody transfer cargo inspection services for both refineries.

Designed to fully comply with the mixing and sampling requirements of ISO 3171, the Co-Jetix systems have a measurement uncertainty of better than 0.025%, providing indisputable evidence in the event of a cargo quality being challenged.

Each system includes a Jiskoot JetMix, a 210 cell sampler ensuring highly accurate grab samples and on-line performance monitoring to comply with the sampling standards.

The Jiskoot InSight control system has an integrated GSM function providing automated SMS messages to operators on their mobile phones for total control of operations.

The system also includes Jiskoot sample receivers and laboratory mixing systems to ensure the samples are representative right up to the point of analysis.
