DDT allows the operator to have complete justification to extend the periods between wet deluge testing out to at least bi-annually, if not longer. Siron Dry Deluge Testing (DDT) key benefits include: • Testing is efficient and has no disruption to normal platform activities • Preparation time for DDT is considerably less • No water ingress protection is required over sensitive instrumentation or electrical equipment • Pipe wall failures are easier to identify • Deluge pipework remains dry mitigating corrosion • No firewater is discharged onto live plant which eliminates risk of unplanned business loss or shutdowns due to water ingress • Residual firewater from previous wet tests is displaced from the distribution pipework • Sump/drain tanks will not overflow due to excessive firewater discharge • No freezing of any firewater in water traps throughout deluge system • No new corrosion, salt or marine growth will form in deluge pipework • System is live throughout process and equipment does not impede flow path of firewater to protected area • Blocked and partially blocked nozzles are quickly identified • Damaged nozzles are quickly identified due to erroneous spray pattern during DDT • Extensively field proven and used in Dutch offshore sector • No complicated electronics are used and equipment has small footprint • Less bedspace required resulting in cost saving to client • Complete platforms can be tested in days rather than weeks • Does not rely on systems being clean or having up to date hydraulic calculations and isometric drawings • Brings a more scientific approach to all previously available inspection based dry testing procedures The patented SIRON Dry Deluge Test is certified by Bureau Veritas: Cert. No. 15ABD11103 Rev. 0

DRY DELUGE TESTING

Siron Dry Deluge Testing offers the client the justification needed to prove to the HSE and regulatory bodies that the deluge system remains in a fit for purpose condition in between mandatory wet testing.

DDT allows the operator to have complete justification to extend the periods between wet deluge testing out to at least bi-annually, if not longer.

Siron Dry Deluge Testing (DDT) key benefits include:

• Testing is efficient and has no disruption to normal platform activities

• Preparation time for DDT is considerably less

• No water ingress protection is required over sensitive instrumentation or electrical equipment

• Pipe wall failures are easier to identify

• Deluge pipework remains dry mitigating corrosion

• No firewater is discharged onto live plant which eliminates risk of unplanned business loss or shutdowns due to water ingress

• Residual firewater from previous wet tests is displaced from the distribution pipework

• Sump/drain tanks will not overflow due to excessive firewater discharge

• No freezing of any firewater in water traps throughout deluge system

• No new corrosion, salt or marine growth will form in deluge pipework
