Foundations and Columns are not designed for the same. 3.0 The actual dimensions taken during alignment such as heights, deviations from the horizontal and vertical etc. shall be recorded on forms supplied to Contractor by the Owner. 4.0 TOLERANCES Following tolerances are valid for fine alignment: Height tolerance for vertical equipment : + / - 1 mm measured at the base ring or foot plat Height tolerance for horizontal equipment: +/- 1 mm when supports are fixed to the foundation +/- 3 mm for sliding supports 3

4 Vertical deviation shall not exceed: 0,2 mm/mt. for columns 0,3 mm/mt. for separators, heat exchangers etc. As a measurement datum the average from various measurements taken of the vessel shall be used. Any deviations over the tolerances needs the written approval of the GNFC. 5.0 LIFTING EQUIPMENT AND TOOLS All construction equipment which is to be used for the execution of the equipment erection shall be in first-class operating condition, safe, fit for the uses for which intended and suitable for the safe and efficient performance of the work. Crane shall not be loaded over 85% of the permitted limit. The load on a rope shall not exceed 25% of the breaking load for shackles and slings. The allowable load for shackles and slings are restricted from 10% to 12,5% of the breaking load. Cables with strands and wires wound in the same direction (long lay) shall only be for guided loads. Two cranes are to be used if length, weight or another special feature predominates. Cross ties are to be used in the event when a tall upright item has to be lifted by 2 Cranes. There shall be no removal or transfer of any of the lifting equipment from the site without the prior written approval of the GNFC. For unloading or lifting the equipment use the weight from the Collie/ Packing list and not the weight stated in the drawing or Inquiry. 6.0 ERECTION PROCEDURE Equipment nozzles shall not be used for lifting. A crane shall not be used for back movement during lifting. When lifting non-ferrous or painted vessels and equipment, hemp ropes, special supports or cross ties shall be used to avoid damage. In the range of the steel wire rope the corner of the aluminum heat exchanger must be protected against damaging with angles out of la-sheet-metal. Prior to lifting thin walled vessels or soft material vessels such as aluminum, all necessary action shall be taken to avoid crushing of the vessel during lifting.

9 This specification defines the basis for cleaning and flushing operations in connection with hydrostatic testing as outlined in the Specification for testing in the field of equipment and piping 2.0 FLUSHING MEDIUM Stainless steel piping shall be flushed with potable water or raw water with a ph-value not over 7.0. Carbon steel and alloy piping shall be flushed with potable or raw water. In special cases piping shall be blown out with oil-free air. 3.0 DURATION FOR FLUSHING In an open system, flushing shall be continued until flush water leaving the system is clear and free from all foreign debris. In a closed system, flushing shall be continued until circulating pump strainer is free from foreign debris and circulating water is clear. Unless otherwise agreed, flushing and cleaning operations shall be performed during normal working hours. 4.0 General Requirement: Flushing and blow-out operations shall be performed by qualified and skilled personnel acquainted with the technology of flushing. Contractor is responsible for all damages occurring during flushing - or blow out activities GNFC shall be informed before the start of any flushing or blow-out activity. A work schedule shall be submitted to GNFC for approval. Contractor shall prepare an adequate number of spool pieces for temporary replacements. Flushing operations shall be carried out in connection with hydrostatic testing of complete system. Wherever possible, flushing should be arranged prior to the start of pressure test. The above practice minimizes the number of flange connections to be opened after successful pressure testing. In order to avoid wastage of expensive gaskets, all temporary connections for the flushing operation will be installed using temporary gaskets, resistant against the pressure and temperature of flushing operations. Contractor shall restore all systems to their original condition after flushing as required by GNFC. Contractor shall provide suitable connections to hydrants and drainage to sewers for circulating water. Contractor shall provide circulation and/or flushing pumps. Contractor shall provide suitable temporary pipe connections, hose connections, blind flanges, temporary gaskets, temporary strainers and dummy spools as required for flushing and steam blowing. 5.0 REQUIREMENTS CONCERNING INSTRUMENTS AND EQUIPMENT 5.1 Control instruments : In general all instruments in the system to be flushed must be isolated from the test by test blinds or removed unless otherwise permitted by GNFC. 9

10 Relief valves and rupture discs shall be removed or blanked off from equipment or piping system prior to flushing/ testing. Contractor shall ensure that instrument removal for flushing is performed by skilled craftsmen. Orifice plates flow nozzles or other similar restrictions normally shall not be installed until the system is flushed. Control valves DN < 200 (8 ) will be removed. If there is no by-pass a spool piece shall be installed. All control valves not removed (welded or diameter nominal > 200 (8 ) will be opened prior to flushing at 100% and stay open during flushing activities. Line mounted instruments such as Rotameters and positive displacement meters shall be removed and spool pieces shall be installed instead. In case of an existing by-pass, the open ends will be flushed shortly and blinded. Locally mounted pressure gauges shall be blocked off or removed and their connections to be plugged during flushing. Level instrument floats located inside vessels or float cages shall be blocked off and opened to the air. 5.2 Vessels : Vessels may only be flushed if the feed line has been thoroughly cleaned before. To flush into columns, special permission from GNFC will be necessary. Where possible, all connecting pipes should be flushed starting from the vessel in order to avoid disassembling of flange connections. Filling of those vessels will be done using the deepest possible point for flushing connection. Flushing into tanks is only allowed providing the tank will be thoroughly cleaned after flushing. 5.3 Rotating equipment Pumps, compressors, turbines will never be flushed. Flange connections of these equipments will be disconnected prior to flushing and the above equipments must be protected with blinds. 5.4 Heat Exchangers : Heat Exchangers may be flushed through if the feed line is thoroughly cleaned before. Exception : Plate heat exchangers shall always be blanked off. 6.0 RECORDING The flushing or blowing-out shall be recorded in the test documents, the socalled Pressure circuits. After the flushing or blowing-out is finished, the documents shall be signed by all parties concerned to certify that the system is satisfactorily flushed/blown out and clean. 10

11 4.5.7 SAFETY All construction activities will be executed in the safest possible ways. On mobilization of the Contractor, Safety Manual will be issued to him which shall be strictly adhered to throughout during the execution of the Project. 11
