Narrative
During morning facility inspection, operator observed product on the concrete containment floor originating from the bottom of the flange in the transfer manifold area. The line was not running at the time. Clean up activities were commenced by using diapers and solvents. Further investigation identified a thermal psv on the line segment was isolated. Due to the psv being isolated, it is believed the line became pressurized due to thermal pressure and likely exceeded mop, resulting in the release at the flange. The flange gasket and bolts were replaced and the transfer manifold visually inspected. A safety meeting was conducted and duties of daily facility and equipment inspections were re-enforced along with a review of the psv inspection procedure
