5.3 MARKINGS FOR SPECIFIC MATERIAL AND EQUIPMENT Marking or color coding is required for specific Material and Equipment such as pipes. Separate procedure (Ex. Color Coding for piping material) will be prepared and included in the Material Requisition.

6 PRESERVATION OF EQUIPMENT

All materials and equipment shall be protected and preserved as far as possible in the best delivered condition. Manufacturers recommendations and precautions shall be strictly applied together with the provision of this specification and any other special requirement requested by COMPANY.

6.1 STORAGE AND HANDLING On receipt of materials or equipment, care shall be taken not to damage the packing, if this has not been previously opened. Packing of individual items should not be opened if the shipment packing has been opened, or if it is absolutely necessary to remove the long term packing, then this packing must be replaced in the same condition as before as soon as initial opening is completed.

Long term packaging should be seen to be secure and signed by CONTRACTOR as so received on issue of material or equipment.

6.2 TEMPORARY CORROSION PREVENTATION Different types of temporary corrosion preventatives that may be employed and their recommended uses. Prior to the application of any protective coatings, all surfaces shall be thoroughly clean and, except where water displacing protectives are used, areas for handling of parts be kept to a minimum and in such circumstances, clean gloves or similar protection must be used.

All corrosion preventatives, wrappings, barrier materials etc. shall satisfy the requirements of BS 1133.

6.3 PRESERVATION AND PROTECTION DURING PROJECT The Contractor shall ensure that all equipment or materials, free issued by COMPANY or CONTRACTORS supply, are protected from atmospheric corrosion or deterioration due to site conditions during the period between issue from stores through installation to contract completion and handover.

6.3.1 Unpacked Items


AD204600G09005(Rev.1)

Page 11 of 29

If equipment and materials are issued unpackaged these items must be preserved from the effort of atmospheric corrosion by the method described in Attachment #1.

6.3.2 Packaged Items

Where items of equipment and material are issued in long term packaging, CONTRACTOR must ensure that this packaging is not removed or damaged until items are required for installation on site.

After removal of packaging for installation, items must be preserved as called in Attachment #1.

7 PROTECTIVE MATERIALS AND METHODS FOR PRESERVATION

To maintain a protective state, the system should be stored either totally wet or totally dry, whichever is more appropriate for the individual situation and then even after setting up all the conditions, they can be upset by a future entry into the system for some form of maintenance or inspection.

7.1 INERT MEDIA In order to make an environment virtually noncorrosive during the preservation period, one can choose a number of alternatives. These vary from monitoring positive pressure of the process fluids to replacement of corrosive process fluids with an inert media. Inert is defined as a media which is noncorrosive for oilfield applications and may include:

7.1.1 Nitrogen (N2)

Nitrogen is an inert gas and is available as bulk, liquefied nitrogen and gaseous nitrogen.

Experience with preservation plants indicates some maintenance effort is required to ensure nitrogen pressure. Nitrogen (or other dry gases) tends to dry out and degrade packing material and flange gaskets; therefore, these must be checked regularly in order to control leakage which can be detected with a leak detector or a soap solution or pressure monitoring. When leaks are detected, valves must have packing tightened or replaced and flanges and/or threaded connections must be sealed. Intervals between re-pressurizing will increase with time from four to eight months, perhaps longer. Using a liquid N2 source is recommended if available.

The advantages of using Nitrogen are:

Non-flammable and non-toxic Readily available in bulk as liquefied Nitrogen type II and gaseous Nitrogen type I

Disadvantages are:

Tends to dry out seals and packing Leaks must be controlled

7.1.2 Dry Air


AD204600G09005(Rev.1)

Page 12 of 29

Dry air is an excellent preservation media if the system is initially dry or can be thoroughly dried during the preservation process. The system should be maintained at a dew point of +30 Deg F/-1 Deg C or lower or the relative humidity controlled to 40 % or less.

The advantages of using dry air are:

Non-flammable Nontoxic No problems with disposal Facilitates internal inspection

The disadvantages are:

May be expensive Positive pressure may be difficult to maintain If very low dew point is required, it may dry out seals May form explosive mixture with hydrocarbons

7.1.3 Water

While water is normally not considered inert, with proper conditioning it may be used to preservation systems and an acceptable corrosion rate can be maintained. The use of water for long term preservation is questionable since biocides may be added to prevent the growth of sulfate reducing bacteria, decompose with time. This allows SRB colonies to grow and they may present a pitting problem. If the preservation facility is re-commissioned before the biocide has been allowed to decompose, a biocide disposal problem may be encountered because even a low concentration of these chemicals can pose an environmental hazard. System preservation with water should also be kept under positive pressure (nitrogen or sweet gas) to prevent pitting damage caused by oxygen (air) ingress.

The advantages of using water are:

Inexpensive Readily available Safe operation


Possibility of pitting corrosion by SRB Disposal problems if biocide is contained Air ingress must be prevented by positive nitrogen or gas pressure

7.1.4 Ambient Air

Ambient air is not inert since condensation can occur when the ambient temperature


AD204600G09005(Rev.1)

Page 13 of 29

drops significantly. When the temperature rises again, however, the condensed water will evaporate. In the onshore areas, the percentage of time that free water exists in a system due to condensation may be relatively short and even high corrosion rates during that period are acceptable. Ambient air preservation allows inspection of the facility and, if corrosion is occurring, corrective measures may be taken.

The advantages of using ambient air:

Inexpensive Readily available Accessibility of equipment to inspection Non-flammable


Condensation of water will cause corrosion

7.2 ACTIVE MEDIA 7.2.1 Dry Sweet Fuel Gas

Dry means no free water is initially present or will condense from the gas during the preservation duration. Normally, a maximum dew point is specified with the specification adjusted to match the preservation requirements. Not applicable to Equipment Packing and Storage. Detail described in Preservation Procedure

The advantage of using dry fuel gas is:

Inexpensive and readily available at certain locations Disadvantages are:

Flammable Can form explosive mixture with air More expensive than nitrogen in some locations Leaks must be controlled Tends to dry out seals and packing

7.2.2 Other Hydrocarbons

Hydrocarbons such as diesel, kerosene or nominally dry crude are good protective media although they sometimes need the addition of corrosion inhibitors to ensure protection against any water which may be present in the system at the time of preservation. Hydrocarbons tend to wet flange gaskets and valve packing which expands the material and seals efficiency against leaks. Since leaks are easily detected, timely remedial action can be taken to prevent loss of these preservation media. Some water may settle out from these liquid hydrocarbons, and monthly draining at low points is recommended until no further water is found. Quarterly check for water should be conducted thereafter.


AD204600G09005(Rev.1)

Page 14 of 29

The advantages of using hydrocarbons are:

ADMA-OPCO's experience in their use (depending on location) Readily available Reusable (in some locations) Leaks (if any) will be visible

Disadvantages are:

Flammable Disposal problems (depending on location) Toxic Hydro jetting will be required before re-commissioning to remove sheets of rust

formed on the metal due to the water present in the hydrocarbons.

7.3 METHODS OF PROTECTION 7.3.1 Protective Coatings

Coating metal surfaces provides a protective barrier between the metal and the environment and therefore allows the equipment to be placed in an ambient environment of air and/or water where it provides added protection from corrosion.


AD204600G09005(Rev.1)

Page 16 of 29

Coating can be relatively permanent industrial maintenance type paint or a rust preventative grease or oil. The application of permanent coatings (epoxy, paint, etc.) is generally not recommended for preservation because of the cost involved; however, insulated vessels or piping which have the insulation stripped and are unpainted may be an exception.

Rust preventative greases and oils are relatively inexpensive to apply and remove, but generally provide protection for only 6 to 18 months.

Vapor Phase Inhibitors (VPI) are more effective in small enclosures and vessels where vapor leakage is a minimum. VPI's which vaporize effectively in warm climates could have a life up to 5 years (as per Vendor's literature). VPI's may also render the enclosed atmosphere toxic.

7.3.2 Housings and Coverings

Protective housings and coverings may be applied to reduce deterioration due to environment. These may be plywood boxes constructed over rotating equipment, tape coverings over exposed motor/pump shafts, or polyethylene bags over instruments (inside only). If this type of protection is vapor tight, it keeps dust, sand, rain, dew and salts from exposed surfaces. Coverings will also retard oxidation or 'drying out' of greases or oils applied to machine surfaces. Covering of motor, turbine, and compressor air inlets and taping over applied protective greases is recommended. Polyethylene film should not be used outdoors because it deteriorates rapidly. If the equipment is designed for outdoor exposure, constructing box enclosures and/or using plastic bags is generally not encouraged.

7.3.3 Cocooning

Both internal and external surfaces can be protected by proper storage of equipment in covered and, if required, conditioned-air enclosures. The equipment can be moved to environmentally controlled storage, or in situation where this is not feasible, a cover can be installed over the equipment in place.

The environment is maintained by circulating controlled-humidity (40%) air between the Cocoon and the surface of the protected equipment. Since this air is also circulated inside the equipment, both internal and external protection is provided. Automatically controlled air driers maintain moisture content below the corrosion level. The "Cocoon" method enables immediate re-commissioning.

The initial cost for Cocooning expensive rotating equipment is minor regarding its capital cost. This cost will vary according to location (offshore or onshore), and configuration of the equipment.

7.3.4 Wrapping

Wrapping with waterproof paper or VPI paper is a cheap method of protection. However, the equipment protected in this way should be stored under shelter.

7.3.5 Dry Inert Gas Filling


AD204600G09005(Rev.1)

Page 17 of 29

All hermetically closed equipment may be protected by drying the air or displacing it by an inert gas, e.g. nitrogen, and maintaining a slight positive internal pressure. This pressure is not necessary if a desiccant is present or a vapour-phase inhibitor is used.

Nitrogen blanketing shall be used with gaseous N2 filled at 2 bar(g) and with one makeup cylinder, one pressure gauge minimum. Openings shall be sealed with covers or plugs and seal taped with heavy plastic bags around the flange interface. One pressure gauge shall be installed to observe the pressure in transit. A tag shall be attached at the opening to caution about the presence of a pressurized container.

When the vessel is filled with nitrogen for internal protection during shipping & storing, a sign shall be painted in minimum 150 mm high bold letters adjacent to each vessel manway.

7.3.6 Desiccants

Drying agents, such as silica gel, can be used inside closed equipment. The desiccant should be placed in a suitable container and periodically renewed. It shall not be used in combination with VPI.

7.3.7 Electric Heating

The following methods of electric heating may be considered:

Fan heaters; for space heating, e.g. sub-stations, control rooms, basements Warm air (strip heating, electric trace heating or lamp bulbs); for equipment which

is cocooned or otherwise enclosed

Anti-condensation heaters for electrical equipment

1.1 PACKING CATEGORY 1 CRADLE

1.1.1 Equipment Concerned Equipment whose dimensions exceed the standard dimensions and which not

being mechanically and physico-chemically fragile, do not require special packing.

Any other heavy or large equipment that is not particularly fragile. The equipment in this category is primarily sheet metal equipment (columns, reactors, towers, condensers, etc.).

Some self-supporting equipment may be sling-loaded directly or using existing lifting devices.

In the event that special self-supporting cradles are required because of mechanical strength, a special study will be required.

N.B. PRESSURE VESSELS

Pressure vessels exceeding 60 tons shall be mounted on saddles of steel to enable proper stowage on board ship, barge or road transport.

Pressure vessels weighing up to 60 tons shall be mounted on saddles where not provided by their design, constructed of steel or wood, to enable proper stowage on board ship, barge or road transport. Its saddles are constructed of wood, it is absolutely essential that layered timber is used and is shaped to provide a 120-degree fit around vessel and that these layers are through bolted using substantial long bolts. The outside edges are to be reinforced with steel angle pieces to produce a rigid and substantial saddle. Saddles should be attached to vessels using strong steel straps, one end being firmly fixed to the saddle, the other having a screw tensioner to provide adequate holding of vessel during shipment.

All manholes and open flanges shall be sealed with blanks using a suitable gasket material to ensure a watertight joint. Nozzles in the vicinity of lifting lugs must be fully protected to prevent possible damage during lifting. All other nozzles and protuberances must be protected if they are likely to come into contact (under impact) with the weight of the vessel, during lifting or handling.

Vessels of all sizes must be protected to avoid corrosion or contamination.

staving.

Without exception, the equipment is shipped as is.

However, it may be grouped in crates, thus joining Category 3 equipment.

1.8 PACKING CATEGORY 8 - SPECIAL PRODUCTS This category covers products that, by their nature, require packaging by the manufacturer: Cement, catalysts, liquids, corrosive and flammable products, explosives, radioactive products, etc.

1.8.1 Paint - Varnish - Molten cement for refractory concrete - Refractory products or perishable insulating material. These products, generally presented in cans or metal barrels, may be either shipped in their original packing, labeled and referenced, or grouped together, preferably in crated, for cans or metal barrels having a volume of more than 100 liters.

1.8.2 Chemicals Packing shall be suitable for the nature of the chemical products, and reflect their degree of toxicity, their characteristics (volatile, flammable, radioactive), their eventual incompatibility with other products, their individual wrapping (plastic or metallic cans or tins, glass bottles, etc.)

These products may be regrouped either in crates or packing cases. Whatever their type of packing, the VENDOR is required to carry out faultless wedging of packed material, on all sides and on the inside of the crates, using the best industry practices such as the use of polystyrene, either foam or rigid expanded, etc., in order to avoid any eventual breakage of bottles, or deterioration of metallic or plastic packaging and shall prepare packages which are not too bulky or heavy, and can be handled easily.

1.9 PACKING CATEGORY 9 - AIR TRANSPORT General

Certain types of material may have to be shipped by air from their country of origin. This air transport will be exceptional, and will be used only:

For goods, which are highly, sensitive to shock or vibrations, such as computers, electronic instruments, or those of small dimensions and weight.

For material urgently required by the site. Depending on the goods to be packed, the VENDOR may use one of the three following propositions:

a. A triple-corrugated cardboard container made with waterproofed glue and a barrier layer of polyethylene on the outsides to keep out humidity.

b. Wooded/Cardboard packing cases: the wood being used for the framework and base of the cases, waterproofed triple-corrugated cardboard being used for the sides and top. These cases are of the Bell type, and used for material of small or medium dimensions.


AD204600G09005(Rev.1)

Page 26 of 29

c. For larger dimensions, plywood cases are acceptable. The timber characteristics, cross-sections and thickness will be systematically determined by the nature of the loads to be packed.

Dimensions

In order to optimize the existing transport facilities (passenger or cargo aircraft), the dimensions of:

Triple-corrugated containers, Wooden/cardboard packing cases, Plywood cases Must be adaptable to the pallets used.

1.10 PACKING CATEGORY 10 - CONTAINERISATION The vendor shall stuff certain materials in 20 or 40 foot containers (dry, open top, flat racks and other types of containers).

This definition of containerisation is valid for air and sea containers.

1.10.1 Physico Chemical Stress Physico-Chemical stress being equal, all categories can be used in containerisation.

Since the container is not leak tight, where pre-packing is not leak tight, packing in contact with the bottom shall be raised in order to prevent it from being damaged by accumulations of water (on pallets, for example).

1.10.2 Mechanical Stress Since mechanical stress differs, the case for the equipment may have a lighter structure.

However, it is necessary that, after the discharging of equipment out of containers, their packaging and packing be appropriate so as to protect equipment on site during the storage period, as required in paragraph 1 of this Appendix 3/12/1.

1.10.3 Wedging Stress The packer is responsible for stowage inside the container and shall take all precautions to ensure that the equipment cases are completely immobilized and that correct stowage is performed.

ISO standards (containers) regulate outer dimensions. It is thus important in all circumstances to consult with the transporters with regard to working dimensions, as these can vary considerably with container design.

In addition to above mentioned specifications regarding containerisation packing, the following rules will have to be applied.


AD204600G09005(Rev.1)

Page 27 of 29

1.10.4 Packing Prior to Placing Into the Containers VENDOR shall provide efficient physical and chemical protection, as well as protection against mechanical damage. Depending on type, shape, dimensions and weight of the material, such mechanical protection may be made with a crate, a watertight cardboard case, appropriate handling, or packing on supports. Physical and chemical protection may be either by application of varnish and waterproofing, or by a sealed covering. VENDOR is notified that condensation produces about 80% relative humidity in a container.

1.10.5 Packing in Containers Prior to Loading VENDOR shall take into account the stresses and strains acting on the container and its contents during transport. The most important resulting from the following:

1) Truck Transport:

Acceleration and slowing-down causing longitudinal motion in both directions,

Centrifugal forces moving the loads in road turns, Vibrations settling the packages on the floor.

2) Railway Transport:

Shock, due to brakes and buffers during marshaling. 3) Sea Transport

Rolling and pitching. Consequently the VENDOR shall comply with the following requirements:

Perfect load balance. Appropriate stowage of load. Adequate wedging and fitting suitable to the transport facilities used.
