Details

The seismic vulnerability analysis of existing equipment of the Upstream Plant (Centro Olio Val d’Agri, COVA) located in Viggiano (Basilicata Region, Italy) has been analyzed by mean of refined models. Moreover, proper mitigation strategies have been selected, designed and implemented.

Do you need more information?

This activity concerned one of the critical components of the COVA, named Vertical Separators whose aim is to separate gas from oil. The seismic assessment has been conduced according to Italian Technical Regulations (NT2018). 

Finally, a bracing system has been designed as seismic retrofitting solution of this equipment.

SafePlant is a spin-off of the Department of Engineering of “Roma Tre” University.
