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.

4.1 General

• Tanks shall be designed in accordance with SR SR EN 14015 and all codes, standards

and specifications listed therein. • The design life shall be a minimum of 25 years or as specified on the tank data sheet.

• Tank Vendors shall check the acceptability of loads on shell openings in accordance with

project specification 180530-00-ME-SPC-0005, Nozzle Loads.

• Normal and emergency venting shall be in accordance with SR EN 14015 Annex L. Under normal operating conditions it shall not be possible to isolate the venting system from the tank, and the venting system shall be sized to prevent the design pressure and the design internal negative pressure of the tank being exceeded for all operating conditions. If extremely high outbreathing rates are necessary due to a fire on the external surfaces of the tank or malfunction of special tank equipment (e.g. tank blanketing system), additional emergency relief valves shall be used, or the tank shall meet the requirements of Annex K. Area provided by gauge hatch opening might be considered for emergency venting capacity when suitable gauge hatch is provided with self-closing cover.
