Gas molecular weight has an impact on compressor surge as when it reduces.
What are the factors which should be considered during an on-going site operation with continuous feed?
A surge may be linked to feed changes?

Re: Safeguards of non-functioning compressor anti-surge valve
Many modern compressor control systems include dedicated surge detection based on:
Rapid flow reversals
Pressure oscillations
High-frequency vibration
Characteristic changes in differential pressure
If surge is detected repeatedly or for a defined duration, protective action is initiated, typically ...

Asset Integrity & Process Safety
What is the reason that the definition of asset Integrity and process safety sometimes is used interchangeably?
In my opinion, they are having distinct funtions.
