Lago Invests Close to One Million Florins

In New Facilities to Help Keep Harbor Clean


Since the Lago Refinery is
situated along the water and
many thousand barrels of oil
are processed and handled in
loading and unloading oper-
ations each day, there is a
chance for some oil to pass


into the water.
To prevent this from hap-
pening and to help keep San
Nicolas Harbor clean, Lago
has recently installed a num-
ber of new facilities costing
approximately one million flo-

It's Time for a Year Round Reminder

Every year in October, a Fire Prevention Week is proclaimed
by the National Fire Protection Association. From October 4-10,
1970 again special attention is focused on the hazards of fire
and on preventive measures.
At home, we must always keep matches and lighters well out
of the reach of very young children. School-age youngsters
should be trained to handle matches carefully, with the under-
standing that they are to light them only in your presence and
with your permission. Also, never leave small children unattended.
As to the kitchen, we should never leave a stove or toaster on
when leaving home. And never forget to unplug an electric iron
after using. Another important precaution is to keep around
your home clean.


We must try to change the habits that so
fires careless smoking, negligent handling
example. We must become intolerant of
lead to fire like defective
heating equipment, frayed
electric cords. We must also
watch out for innocent looking
aerosol cans which, when used COO
close to open fires, can become
a bomb!
Now, during Fire Prevent-
ion Week, is a time to remind
ourselves that fire hurts, both
physically and financially...
and that it can hit any time
of the year. Most fires are the
result of ordinary human care-
lessness and failure to observe
basic safety precautions on or
off the job. And most of these
fires can be avoided!

Twelve Mechanical Employees Broaden Knowledge

Through a Thirty Week Course in Metallurgy


To broaden their back-
ground and to provide them
with a knowledge of principles
fundamental to a study of
metallurgy, twelve men of the
Equipment Inspection Section
and Mechanical Engineering
Division began a course in Ele-
ments of Metallurgy Septem-
ber 21.
The 15-lesson correspond-
ence course from the Metals
Engineering Institute of the
American Society for Metals


will be conducted in thirty
one-hour sessions from 11 to
12 noon every Monday.
Instructor is K. R. Walston,
supervising engineer of E.I.S.
who came to Lago in July
last year from Esso Research
& Engineering Co.
Conducted in the form of
group discussions in G.O.B.
Room 200, the course includes
a test upon completion of each
lesson and a general test upon
completion of the full course.


Carlos de Cuba of PR/IR-
Training is in charge of con-
ducting the tests and grading
the test papers.
The course, designed for
home study, gives an intro-
duction to basic essentials of
chemistry, physics and physi-
cal chemistry and covers the
testing of metals and the be-
havior of metals in refining,
heat treating, fabrication and
electroplating.

New Facilities to Keep Harbor Clean
(Continued from page 1)


to float to the surface of the
basin. The oil then collects
against a baffle or wall which
extends a few feet into the
water. The clean water then
passes under the baffle into
the harbor. The former wood-
en baffle has been replaced by
a new fireproof and more ef-
ficient baffle made of steel
and concrete.
New Skimmers at the Second-
ary Separator
Two new rotary skimmers
are being installed at the sec-
ondary separator which will
increase the efficiency of oil
recovery.
Oil Recovery Facilities for
Harbor Shoreline
The first phase of a 1500-
foot floating oil barrier has
been installed recently in the
water parallel to the shoreline
in the area of the finger piers.
Any oil leaking from the
shoreline is caught by the
barrier and a floating rotary
skimmer is used to collect the
oil and pump it back to the
refinery.
Facilities to Recover Harbor
Oil Spillage
In the event of a major oil
spill in the harbor, a floating
barrier will be drawn across
the mouth of the harbor to
prevent the escape of oil into
the sea. Once contained by the
barrier, the oil will be pump-
ed into ghore tanks.


Deballasting Tanks and
Facilities

A new 30,000-barrel tank
was placed in service some
time ago to separate the oil
from the ballast water that is
pumped from tankers at the
Lago docks. Ballast water
from ships using Lago's off-
shore berth is handled by two
other tanks. These ballast wa-
ters now receive extra treat-
ment for removal of the oil
before the clean water is re-
turned to the sea.
Oil Dispersant System for
Tugs
The two Lago tugs have
been equipped with facilities
to spray a chemical dispersant
(called Corexit) onto floating
oil slicks. The dispersant,
which is harmless to marine
life, causes the oil to break
up into small droplets which
are subsequently destroyed by
bacterial action.
The process engineering
work on these projects was
carried out mainly under the
supervision of Mr. W. L. Duke,
while Mr. G. Sunday of Mech-
anical-Engineering was the
project engineer.
Several of the above pro-
jects were original recommen-
dations of Lago's Oil Conser-
vation Committee and are in
line with Jersey's Clean Seas
Policy.

Pa evita esey di tuma lugar
y pa tene haf di San Nicolas

install un numero di facilidad-
nan nobo cu a costa mas of
menos un miljon florin. E fa-
cilidadnan ey ta inclui:

Muraya Nobo na Separador

E separador secundario ta
manera un tanki cu ta recibi
tur awa di process cu por ta
sushA cu azeta di refineria.
Aki e azeta ta haya oportuni-
dad di separa su mes for di
awa, drief bai ariba te na su-
perficio di e tanki. E azeta ta
acumula contra un plancha of
muraya cu ta hinc& algun pia
den awa. Awa limpi ta pasa
bao di e muraya bai den hat.
E muraya anterior di madera
a worde remplazA door di un
muraya nobo di staal y con-
cret cu ta mas efectivo y no
por pega candela.

Scoriador Nobo na Separador
Secundario

Actualmente compania ta
instalando dos scoriador cu ta


recoge azeta na e separador
secundario, cual lo mehora efi-
cacia di recuperacion di azeta.

Facilidadnan pa Recoge Azeta
na Costa di Haf

Recientemente a keda in-
stalA un barera di 1500 pia cu
ta drief riba awa, y ta keda
paralelo cu costa den vecinda-
rio di finger piernan. Cualkier
azeta cu lek for di costa ta
ser wantA pa e barera, y un
scoriador cu ta drei riba awa
ta word usA pa colecta e aze-
ta, y despues pomp e bek pa
refineria.

Facilidadnan pa Recoge Azeta
cu Plama den Haf

Den caso cu tin un gran
perdida di azeta den haf, un
barera cu ta drief lo word
halt den boca di haf, pa evita
azeta drief bai den lama. Una
bez cu a barera a want e aze-
ta, lo e word gepomp bek den
tankinan na tera.

Tanki y Facilidadnan pa
Recibi Awa di Lastre

Un tanki nobo di 30 mil ba-
ril a word ponl na uso poco
tempu past pa separa azeta
for di awa di lastre cu tanke-
ronan ta pomp pa tera ora
nan ta traca na Lago. Awa di
lastre for di tankeronan cu ta
usa Lago su lugar di traca


pafor di costa, ta bai den dos
otro tanki. E awanan aki di
lastre actualmente ta recibi
tratamentu extra pa saca aze-
ta for di awa, promer cu e
awa limpi word tirM bek den
lama.

Tugnan Tin Sistema di
Dispersa Azeta

Lago su dos tug awor tin
facilidadnan pa spuit un dis-
persante quimico (cu yama
Corexit) riba manchanan di
azeta cu ta drief riba awa. E
dispersante aki, cu no ta ma-
ta ni pisca ni mata den lama,
ta haci azeta plama den drup-
pelnan chikitu cu despues ta
word destrui door di action
di bacteria.

E trabao di process di inge-
nieria ariba e proyectonan aki
a ser haci pa mayor part bao

Shift Foremen, Operators Follow

Pipestill Advanced Control Program


Sixteen Process Department
panel operators and shift
foremen and three instrument
maintenance men recently
completed a training program
in pipestill advanced control.
The training sessions, given to
groups of three men at a time
and lasting for one 8-hour ses-
sion per group, were conduct-
ed by Chuck McConnell of
Technical-Process Engineering
in the Administration Bldg.
The new Pipestill Advanced
Control Program is initially
being developed for No. 8
Pipestill and eventually will
be tied into each of Lago's six
pipestills. The program, which


was developed by Esso Engin-
eering, is being adapted for
Lago operations by Mr. N. Y.
Gaitonde of Esso Engineering
and Bob Heath of Lago's
Technical-MCS Division. A
similar program is currently
being used at the Esso Refin-
ery, Fawley, England.

The training sessions made
the personnel aware of the
capabilities of the new control
program and how it will help
the operators in running the
pipestills. Further training
will be given in the Refining
Control Center in mid October
with the program in operation.
