TITLE:
2.3 Drying
Once residual dewatering and swabbing operations have been completed and approved, drying operations will
be carried out. Each pipeline will be dried using dry air.
When the dew point of the air at the pipeline end is 5°C lower than ambient temperature and does not fluctuate
by more than 3 °C whilst replacing the content of the line by dry air, drying can be accepted.
Air introduced into the pipeline during dry air drying shall have a dew point of at least 15 °C below the final dew
point of the pipeline (i.e., 20 °C below the ambient temperature).
The pipeline dew point is to be monitored at both ends to ensure the required dew point is achieved throughout
the pipeline. For final acceptance, the specified dew point in the pipeline is to be maintained for a minimum
period of 48 hours (soak test). All opening during this period will remain closed.
Following the minimum 48 hours hold period and if the Contractor requirements are fulfilled, final acceptance
will be obtained through signing the Drying Report by Contractor to terminate the drying operation.
The pipeline shall then be pressurized using super dry air to 1.5 barg and maintained at this pressure until start
of commissioning.
Below the expected drying time for each pipeline:

Trunk Line TK-04 11946 20" 2072 94
2.4 Rig-down of equipment
When drying operation is complete, shall be disconnect and remove the pipeline drying equipment and
cap all open pipe ends. Equipment typically must be disconnected from power sources, decoupled from
pressurized systems, disassembled and moved off the rig floor or even off location.
2.5 Demobilization
Demobilization shall start after completion the all activities. A letter shall be submitted to the contractor
on completion of activity for the approval .DCBM shall carefully manage demobilization plans. DCBM
will assign the skilled workforce for demobilization requisite plant, equipment and materials on
completion.
Demobilization Including the compressor, air dryer, truck, manpower, instrument, crane, Removal, and
site clean-up , monitoring caravan, WC and other facilities on the site.

TITLE:
3 Dryness Criteria
For natural gas pipelines, the generally accepted moisture limit is a dew point of –
4°F (-20°C). The sequence of air drying activities

 Initial drying with dry air
 Final drying with dry air
 Soak test
3.1 Initial drying with dry air
Initial drying will be done with dry air compressor. The facilitating evaporation into the
dry air stream. The pipeline dries from the launch end and gradually progresses in a
front down the pipeline.
The executer must make sure pressure at receiver side is just above the atmospheric
pressure throughout the drying, by this lower the pressure more water vapour the air
can absorb and the quicker the pipeline will dry.
In addition to measuring the outlet dew point, the appearance of dust gives strong visual
indication that the line is beginning to dry.
3.2 Final drying with dry air
If further reductions in the dew point required, it can be achieved by simply continuing to blow air
through the line until the desired dew point is achieved.
3.3 Soak test
After reaching desired dew point, all the opening to the pipeline should be closed for minimum of
48 hours at a pressure of 0.5 bar above the ambient pressure at all point along the pipeline.
After 48 hours of soak test pipeline dew point shall be monitored at both ends to ensure the
required dew point is achieved throughout the pipeline. During starting and finishing time dew
point, ambient temperature and pipe temperature must be checked and recorded.
On acceptance, the pipeline drying campaign is complete. The pipeline shall then be nitrogen
purged and packed with nitrogen at pressure 2 bar. This positive pressure shall be maintained
until start of commissioning.
