Off Gas Compressor Start Permissive

The document provides a start-up procedure for an off gas compressor. It involves: 1. Checking oil, cooling water, and nitrogen levels and ensuring safety systems are bypassed. 2. Starting pumps and heaters to bring systems up to operating temperatures and pressures. 3. Resetting electrical interlocks once parameters are healthy. 4. Obtaining clearance to bypass additional safety systems and start the motor. 5. Gradually loading the compressor within 20 minutes to avoid tripping.
