@Ravi.S

For guidance, I can only suggest you get a copy of API RP520, API Standard 521 and ASME Section VIII, Div 1 (or your applicable equivalent). API Standard 521 will help in determining the relieving scenarios. API RP520 will help in PSV sizing. For anyone to give you more details than this at this time would be truly foolish. This is a safety and liability issue and no one knows your system like you do, nor does anyone have the system details (PFDs, P&IDs, equipment operating and design conditions, etc.) like you do.

Once you go through the applicable documents if you have any specific questions on application, then feel free to post your questions/concerns and you will find a host of people ready to offer assistance (me for one).
