Regarding 60/40 Kuwait/AH blend – Coke bed problems could be related to incompatibility of the resids and/or inadequate coking temperature. Can you explain how you overflowed the coke drum during the vertical (I assume bore hole) cut? The drill stem became stuck in the coke bed? The response should be to go to bypass and not fill the coke drum with water. What temperature is your cutting water? Was someone hurt?
