Abstract: Overpressure protective devices are of vital concern to the gas industry. Safety codes and current laws require their installation each time a pressure reducing station is installed that supplies gas from any system to another system with a lower maximum allowable operating pressure. The purpose of this article is to provide a systematic review of the various methods of providing the overpressure protection. Advantages and disadvantages of each method are evaluated, and engineering guidelines are provided. Methods of Overpressure Protection The most commonly used methods of overpressure protection in the gas industry, not necessarily in order of use or importance include 1. Relief 2. Monitoring 3.
