If you have 54" and 48" flare lines (lines of that size deserve special treatment) you should probably be consulting a competent engineer that is experienced in this area.

KO drums (are they sitting on foundations?), given that they are recieving relatively "low pressure" rejects from overpressure devices, are a design specialty.

You really need to discuss with a local competent engineer that is experienced with this. You don't want to fool around with piping of this size.

Maybe I should just put this into the "you should know better" file.
