1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

PETROM have issued a reimbursable engineering contract to WorleyParsons to provide a Front End Engineering Design (FEED) and EPC ITT documentation for the Central and East Region OSPS Facilities consisting of 284 Parks contained within 23 Projects (22 in Central Region and 1 in the East). In addition, Pre-feasibility Studies leading to future FEED design work are to be carried out on 92 Parks (contained within 15 Projects) for the Western Region as well as for 45 Tank Farms in the three regions (2 in the Eastern Region; 38 in the Central Region; and 5 in the Western Region).

1.1 Project Outline

The Project Scope is comprised of the modernisation or abandonment of existing Park facilities. Modernisation consists of complete replacement of the existing Park facilities, sized to present production capacities. The Park facilities will be designed to be of modular construction, the modules to consist of PETROM design for manifold only (PMAN) or one of five metering point (MP) designs as put forward by PETROM. In addition, there are five Metering Point Production (MPP) designs covering 20 Park facilities in the Central and East Regions that are to be evaluated for abandonment, modernising, upsizing or downsizing in addition to others in the Eastern Region that are to be identified. Given the size and complexity of these facilities, only partial modularisation is expected. Work on the West Region Parks will culminate in a Pre-feasibility Study following a detailed data gathering exercise and verification of the same. There are 92 Parks contained in 15 Projects that will be assessed for upgrade or abandonment. The 45 Tank Farms are to be examined for upsizing, downsizing, modernisation or abandonment and will also culminate as a Pre-feasibility Study. The scope of work begins at the manifold inlet to the Park facilities and continues through to the delivery points of the Tank Farms or MPP’s; i.e. pipelines and wellheads upstream of the manifolds upstream are not considered. However, interconnecting and delivery pipelines will have to be considered in the overall assessment of the project.

DOC NO: 180530–00–ME–SPC-0004-A PAGE 11 OF 17

Glass fabric for vapour barrier reinforcement shall be alkali resistant glass fabric with a minimum mesh opening of 3 mm. Pressure sensitive tape shall be 25mm wide glass reinforced polyester self adhesive tape.

8.3 Application of Cold Service Insulation

8.3.1 General Operations to apply insulation shall not be started until hydro-testing has been satisfactorily carried out. Prior to the application of insulation all surfaces shall be clean, dry, and free from any other type of contamination. Under no circumstances will it be acceptable to apply any type of insulation onto surfaces that are contaminated by moisture. The surface shall be dried and shall remain dry during the application of the insulation. If dry surface condition is not possible to achieve then application shall be postponed until such conditions can be achieved. This requirement will not be the subject of any extra costs to the project. The insulation materials shall be kept dry at all times. The installation of the insulation and weather protection shall proceed so that the insulation is not left without weather protection over night. Where this is not practical the insulation shall be kept dry by means of temporary weather protection until the specified weather protection is installed, wrapping with polythene is an acceptable method for this. All mastics used for joint sealing and vapour barriers, shall be applied in strict accordance with the manufactures instructions. Special attention shall be paid to manufactures recommendations regarding application conditions and curing times.

Mastics that are applied in contravention of the manufactures recommendations will be rejected. Materials that become wet due to atmospheric precipitation or by any other means shall be removed and scrapped.

8.3.2 Piping and Equipment

Where cold insulation is specified the entire system shall be insulated including drains, instrument lines, strengthening rings, lifting lugs, man ways, instrument lines, etc. Cellular glass for piping shall be pre-formed pipe sections; bends and other fitting shall be factory formed by the manufacturer.

be filled full thickness with joint sealer and neatly pointed. Joint sealer shall not be used to fill voids. All joints shall be staggered for equipment, which can be achieved by adopting a castellated pattern. For piping the circumferential joints shall be staggered by a distance equivalent to 50% of one pipe section length. For multi layer applications the joints between layers shall be staggered both axially and radially and overlap of at least 150 mm shall be maintained. The cellular glass shall be secured with stainless steel bands spaced at 0.25 m intervals with a minimum of two bands per section. As an alternative pressure sensitive tape spaced at 0.25 m intervals with a minimum of three tapes per section may be used. On multi layer applications pressure sensitive tape shall be used to secure the inner layer. On dome heads on vertical and horizontal vessels the insulation shall be secured with stainless steel finger bands radiating from a central floating ring. In all instances where stainless steel banding is used to secure cellular glass a metal plate 6 mm thick 50 mm square plate shall be installed between the banding clip and the cellular glass. For equipment in cold service where it is not possible to provide a satisfactory thermal break that would allow the identification plate to remain visible a spare identification plate will be supplied that will be fixed to the outer surface of the insulation A vapour barrier consisting of two layers of mastic reinforced with glass fabric shall be applied over the cellular glass. The first layer of mastic shall be applied so that the surface of the cellular glass is fully covered with an even smooth coating of mastic, the glass fabric should then be embedded into the mastic ensuring that it is covered with mastic but that the weave is still visible. An overlap of 50mm shall be maintained at all joints. After the first layer has fully cured the second layer of mastic shall be applied. The mastic shall be applied in accordance with manufacturers’ instructions and thickness recommendations. Where cold insulation terminates for example at ladder supports, brackets for cable trays etc. the insulation shall be extended at the same thickness for a distance equal to four times the insulation thickness, the vapour barrier shall continue for a distance no less than 50 mm on to the steel surface. Where a fully welded sealing plate is installed as part of the support the vapour barrier shall be applied over the plate, the plate shall be insulated and the insulation extended along the support as described above. Trunnions and all fully welded pipe supports shall be insulated to the same thickness as the pipe.

Pipe hanger type supports, pipe cradle supports and pipe guiding attachments shall be insulated using specially designed load bearing insulation incorporated into the support. These items will be installed during pipe erection as part of the pipe erection activities. Details of the insulation interface with these items will be developed during detail design. Contraction joints shall be located at each insulation support on vertical piping and equipment on horizontal piping and equipment the location of the contraction joints shall be determined taking into account the differential contraction between the piping and or equipment using the lowest temperature condition.

9 ACOUSTIC INSULATION

Acoustic insulation is required for the control of noise emissions to the work area neighbourhood. Unless otherwise specified all valves and flanges will require insulation in acoustic service. Acoustic insulation should be provided as indicated in P&ID per process requirements. For acoustic insulation mineral wool with a minimum density of 180 Kg/m3 shall be used and the sheet metal weather covering shall be a minimum of 0.9 mm thick. The use of lead impregnated vinyl sheet will not be permitted. Where acoustic insulation and thermal insulation is required for hot service the insulation shall be applied to the thickness that fulfils the most stringent of the two requirements. However the materials specified for acoustic insulation shall be used.

When a dual requirement exists in cold service the full system for cold service shall be applied including the vapour barrier, the acoustic insulation shall then be applied over the cold system no credit for acoustic control shall be taken for the cold insulation component.

9.1 Classes of Acoustic Insulation

In view of requirements for noise reduction but to avoid over-design, acoustic insulation is divided in 3 classes:

• Class A The lightest and most economic class • Class B Medium noise reduction • Class C Heavy noise reduction

The dimensions of the acoustic insulation for the three defined classes shall be as indicated in Table 3, unless otherwise specified.
