OPERATOR to note that no reduction in design pressure is permitted in case the
selected pump shutoff is lower.
13. Ensuring conformity of Process Package and residual basic engineering documents with
overall process design requirements included in BEDB/Process Design Basis. In case
of mismatches between the two, the same shall be brought to the attention of the
IOCL/EIL for resolution. BOOT OPERATOR shall update process package, as per
these requirements. However, in case requirements indicated on Process Package
documents are more stringent, the same shall be retained. These requirements are also

studies to be carried out are included elsewhere in the bid document. The reports of
these studies shall be submitted to IOCL/EIL for review and finalization of additional
facilities to be incorporated in the design. It will be the responsibility of the BOOT
OPERATOR to incorporate all such changes in process Package and implement them in
PR execution without any cost and schedule implication to the IOCL.
23. All safety studies performed shall also be considered for the detailed design of the
various packages (e.g. chemical dosing skids). This means that the packages shall not
be considered as black boxes but will be studied during the safety studies. Any changes
to the design of the package PRs recommended as a result of the above safety studies
shall be implemented in the design of those package PRs through their respective
package vendors.
In case participation of package vendor representatives during HAZOP study is
necessary, the same shall be arranged by BOOT OPERATOR without any cost and
schedule impact to the IOCL.
Any major changes to design coming up after the completion of the above safety
studies shall be subjected to a safety review similar to the above to ensure safety of
final design.
