STEAM SYSTEM OPTIMIZATION PROGRAM
Steam System Optimization Program
(SSOP®) is TLV’s flagship assessment service,
a sustainable asset management program
that continuously optimizes the performance
of the entire steam system through
visualization.
In this program, TLV’s consulting |
Engineering | Services (CES) specialists
assess and provide visualizations of the
performance of clients’ steam systems,
optimise these steam systems with
innovative solutions, and implement long-
term management programs to ensure that
the system remains sustainable.
The goals of SSOP® are to improve safety,
reliability and profitability by minimizing
condensate problems and steam loss,
thereby reducing plant energy use and CO2
emissions. Through SSOP, TLV is helping
plants build a low-carbon society.
VISUALISATION
By expressing the performance of the steam
system through visual aids, CES specialists
expose problems and make clear how the
system can be improved.
SSOP® CAN HELP YOUR PLANT…
Reduce CO2 Emissions
By designing and implementing a clear
system of appraisal, management, and
inspection, CES specialists ensure that the
steam system remains consistently and
continuously optimized and sustainable. • Stop steam loss
• Phase 1 - Optimize all condensate
discharge locations. • Eliminate problems caused by condensate
• Phase 2 - Optimize all steam applications
such as steam-using equipment, tracing. • Prevent unexpected equipment failures
• Phase 3 - Optimize the entire steam
system.
POTENTIAL STEAM SAVINGS
To ensure that your plant makes the most
of this valuable resource, it is of upmost
importance that you optimize your entire
steam system. The key concepts of steam
system optimization are: Oil Refineries & Petrochemical Plants: 4.6%
