1 SCOPE
This engineering guide includes the recommended practices for preparation of
Site, Overall and Area Plot and equipment layout of PDVSA plants or process
units for production, refining, gas compression and processing, petrochemical,
Orimulsion, and product storage and distribution facilities.
This engineering guide does not include recommended practices for preparation
of plot plans and equipment layout of PDVSA pilot plants, marine terminal, Lake
Maracaibo and offshore facilities. In such cases, the good engineering criteria will
prevail. For piping layout, see PDVSA Specification H–251, Process and Utility
Piping Design Requirements.
For equipment construction, operational and maintenance spacing requirements,
the Engineering Guides PDVSA IR–M–01, “Separación entre Equipos e
Instalaciones”, and PDVSA IR–M–02, “Ubicación de Equipos e Instalaciones en
Relación a Terceros” shall govern.

3 PRESENTATION
3.1 General
These instructions outline the primary considerations and recommended
practices to be followed in the development and presentation of plot plan drawings
for onshore installations.
Plot plans shall be prepared in such a manner that will clearly illustrate required
layout and spacing of equipment for safe operation and maintenance, together
with necessary fire protection.
The site plans and plot plans are very important means of information transfer
within and between Design, Process and Project Groups. These drawings must
be kept up to date at all times and regularly issued.
3.1.1 Plans
Site plans represent the total overall Plant arrangement. The first step is to
produce topographical map of the site area with the following:

a. Plant outline and levels relative to sea level and geographic north relative to local
bench mark or marks.
b. Locations of the following local facilities – major highways, local roads, railroads,
power lines and pipe lines (existing and proposed). Possible harbor (tides and
sea depth) and river docking (river depth with seasons) locations, and adjacent
plants together with local dwellings.
c. Annual, daily and hourly rainwater design factors plus wind directions and rates.
River levels recorded and sea level (tide) rates over one of the following periods:
5, 10, 25, 50 or 100 year max.*
*To be determined by local or national code requirements.
This will be used as a basic background for superimposing the major areas that
constitute the Plant, such as plant roads, limits of fence boundary lines, rail
entrances and exits, storage tank areas, buildings, ponds, flare or flares, storage
areas, process unit battery limits and extent of utility facilities, etc.
No equipment will be shown in process units or utility facilities other than outlines
of buildings, cooling water towers, flare center lines, and large collecting areas
(liquids or solids). All components will be shown on separate detailed plots
(designated as overall process unit plot plans). These overall plot plans may need
to be split into individual area plot plans depending on scale and plant size.
3.1.2 Site Plan – Presentation
All dimensioning shall be preferably by coordinates, including the following
boundaries: battery limits, property limits or site fence. Coordinates may be
relative (north–south–east–west) to nearest benchmark of the geographic area
or complex where facilities will be erected. Plan North and set grid system will be
indicated on Site Plan drawing.
Adjacent facilities, properties, pipeline, roads, bridges, power lines, sea shore,
creeks, rivers, lakes, swamps, hills, forests, and other geographic or human
references shall be indicated (but not dimensioned) if they affect facility or
installation layouts, or for construction purposes.
Where possible, complex benchmark elevation (relative to mean sea level) shall
be indicated.
Grade elevation reference of an adjacent existing facility shall be used provided
negative elevation values will be avoided. If not available, a fictitious grade
elevation of 100,0 m for a specific unit or facility may be agreed if convenient for
equipment erection and construction purposes, in order to avoid negative
elevation values. The elevation of fictitious grade relative to mean sea level or
complex benchmark shall be indicated on drawing.
The actual North, plant North, and prevailing wind direction arrows shall be
located in the top right side of drawing. General notes, referenced standards and

The following equipment or installation reference points of location shall be used
throughout project:

4.1.2 Locations of external feed lines (water, feedstock, power and gas), future and
existing sewerage and product lines, and existing encroachments that may exist
i.e. power cables and city gas and sewer systems (which can be located or must
remain). If they are to remain, clearances will be required.

6.2.1 Exchangers with centerline located 3.0 meters or more above grade.
6.2.2 Points which require operating access less frequently than once per 8–hour shift,
i.e. some designated valves, certain motors, etc.
6.2.3 Points requiring access for maintenance, including column or vessel manways
(except as listed in sub–paragraph below), nozzle flanges, relief valves,
removable heads or covers, top flange of vertical reboilers, etc.
Platforms shall not be required for manways, when manway centerline elevation
form grade is:
a. 6.0 meters and under, where accessibility to internals is not the purpose.
b. 3.0 meters and under, where accessibility to internals is the purpose.
6.2.4 Air coolers, which have interconnecting walkways provided for service to valving,
fan motors and instruments.
