JOB SPECIFICATION FOR PIPING INSPECTION

The present document or drawing is property of TECHNIP ITALY S.p.A. and shall not, under any circumstances, be totally or partially, directly or indirectly, transferred, reproduced, copied, disclosed or used, without its prior written consent, for any purpose and in any way other than that for which

Subcontractor is responsible to execute P&ID’s check. This inspection applies to piping

physical check-out; it is not covering welding checks. Subcontractor is responsible to
check and submit approved welding documentation (including material traceability) on
piping and piping supports prior to the final system/subsystem joint walkdown.

Subcontractor shall execute piping conformity check against ISO drawings before piping
pressure test execution. This conformity check is not of the present job specification.

5. PRELIMINARY ACTIVITIES

5.1. Documentation
Subcontractor shall check piping versus the up-to-date engineering documentation.
A dedicated piping inspection folder shall be prepared by Subcontractor prior each sub-
system/system inspection including the followings:
• Latest revision (red-marked) of sub-system/system marked up P&IDs;
• Latest revision of sub-system/system component list;
• Last status of sub-system/system Construction punch list;
• Punch list form;
• Vendor P&ID (if any).

Any deviation from specifications and drawings shall be recorded by Subcontractor as

punch items for resolution. Where deviations from drawings are agreed to be maintained
by all involved parties, Subcontractor shall promptly communicate them to field
engineering department at site for master copies mark up and final incorporation on the
as-built drawings. Those deviations will be managed according to the approved project
Field Engineering Management Procedure.

5.2. Inspection Scheduling

Aiming to prevent findings at the late stage and minimize delays due to their
rectifications, the piping inspection (P&ID’s conformity check) shall be executed in two
steps:
it is specifically furnished or outside the extent of the agreed upon right of use.

• Preliminary P&ID’ check: Internal check done by Subcontractor Precommissioning

Team, aimed to minimize findings during next steps (including Licensor’s conformity
check);
• Final P&ID’s check: Check executed during official joint walkdown between
Subcontractor, Contractor and Company representatives as part of Mechanical
Completion prerequisites and in the frame of handover process.

Plant piping inspections (both internal Preliminary P&ID’s check and Final P&ID’s check)
shall be organized by Subcontractor according to project procedures with a sub-

system/system-wise approach in order to ensure the entire plant will be inspected

according to the latest revision of P&ID’s.

When the Vendor representative is required to be involved in the inspections,

Subcontractor shall properly schedule and coordinate the activity with Contractor.

Preliminary P&ID’s conformity check shall be performed by sub-system/system-wise

approach when sub-system/system piping erection is over 75%.

Considering the early phase of P&ID’s check execution, missing plant items shall not be
recorded as punch item unless it’s confirmed that such item will not be installed prior the
expected Mechanical Completion date.

Final piping inspection shall be performed in the frame of the official sub-system/system
joint walkdown prior sub-system/system Mechanical Completion.

During the final P&ID’s check, previously open punches holding the Mechanical
Completion of the sub-system/system shall be checked for close out.

A further piping inspection shall be executed by Licensor, in accordance with Licensor’s

procedure and check lists, to ensure that the plant meets the Licensor’s technology
requirements.
Contractor shall define the right time for Licensor’s inspection execution considering that:
• It shall be early enough to avoid delaying of the overall completion of the project due
to corrective work required by Licensor;
• plant erection shall give the possibility to Licensor to check that all its technology
requirements have been incorporated.

5.3. Site preparation

Before any inspection/walkdown, Subcontractor shall ensure as a minimum the
following:
• Site area shall be cleaned and properly housekeeping has been carried out to
ensure a safe working area;
• All precautions has been taken to safely isolate piping/equipment to be inspected;
it is specifically furnished or outside the extent of the agreed upon right of use.

• Specific permit to work shall be prepared and validated by Subcontractor HSE

department;
• Prepare safe access way for piping inspection at height such as temporary
scaffolding or platform.
