Notes:
This document shall be applied to Construction/Inspection & Test activities carried at Duqm
Refinery EPC Package 2 – Utilities and Off Site, Project sites.
This document is based on widely used international codes, standards and a good engineering
practice that is applied in Oil & Gas Projects and is intended to highlight the minimum tests and
inspections that ensure quality requirements are fulfilled within the scope of the document.
This document is generated to provide guidelines to PSJV Project teams including their sub-
contractors during preparation of project specific QCPs and shall be customized to meet specific
requirements based on applicable project specifications and/or other statutory and regulatory
requirements. It may also be utilized at bidding/proposals stage.
In case of any conflict between this document and the Project specification, drawings and
applicable codes, the project specification shall take precedence over this QCP.

1.0 PURPOSE
1.1 The purpose of this procedure is to ensure that all inspection measuring and test
equipment used during construction is checked at regular intervals and is functioning
correctly for the activity to be performed and documented. This procedure is issued to
cover the requirements of clause 7.1.5 of the ISO 9001:2015.
2.0 SCOPE
2.1 This Quality Control Procedure defines the Quality Control activities and the system to
be applied for controlling IM&TE used by PSJV and their Subcontractor(s) personnel at
Project site.
2.2 This document identifies all IM&TE that is subject to control and all applicable
information regarding calibration or functional tests, calibration methods and
intervals.

5.2 PSJV QC Document Controller shall be responsible for maintaining IM&TE register and
related records. He shall distribute an updated list to all concerned on a weekly
basis.
5.3 SQM shall ensure that requirements of this procedure is implemented and strictly
followed at site during construction phase of the Project.

6.2.2 The firm providing calibration service shall maintain up to date calibration
instructions and procedures for each IM&TE calibrated.
6.2.6 Records which shows date and results of IM&TE calibrated or tested must be kept up
to date.
6.2.7 Calibrating standard shall be of better accuracy than that of the IM&TE tested.

6.2.8 Calibration shall be against a certified reference standard or device whose accuracy
is:
6.3.2 No item of IM & TE will be issued for use at site prior to registration in the IM&TE
register and the assignment of a unique identification number by PSJV QC.
6.3.3 As individual items of IM & TE are received, along with the required certification,
each department user shall maintain a list of IM&TE available with them and submit
original Calibration certificates to Subcontractor QC department.
6.3.4 Prior to submitting calibration records to PSJV QC, Subcontractor QC shall verify
validity of calibration certificate and physical condition of IM&TE.
6.3.5 All inspection, measuring and test equipment used for the inspection or acceptance
of construction work shall be assigned, and permanently identified with an individual

serial number. These serial numbers shall be placed on the equipment by such
appropriate means as to produce durable identifications. Inspection, measuring and
test equipment with missing or illegible identification serial number shall be re-
calibrated before use.

Example of unique identification number for IM&TE: GTP-01-001 (Civil IM&TE belongs
to Subcontractor, GTP).
6.3.7 After verification of IM&TE and Calibration record by PSJV QCE/QCI, PSJV QC
Document Controller shall:
b) Affix valid unique identification sticker (see below for sample) on IM & TE and
state re-calibration due date on the sticker.
a) Subcontractor Name
b) Registration Number
c) Equipment Name
f) Manufacturer’s Name
g) Calibration Frequency
h) Date calibrated
j) Calibration method
k) Equipment Location
6.3.9 Departments using measuring and test equipment are responsible for monitoring
calibration due dates and submitting instruments and devices for calibration on time.
Subcontractor and PSJV QCD shall monitor relevant Departments of IM & TE, which
must be removed from use due to expired calibration period.
6.3.10 Inspectors and testing personnel will not accept measurement values obtained on
measuring and test equipment that have exceeded calibration due dates.
6.3.11 Calibration intervals shall not be longer than as specified in the respective equipment
Calibration Table (see Appendix-8.1) for each item of inspection, measuring and test
equipment. However specific requirements for each IM&TE shall be specified by PSJV
SQM by considering the nature of measurement, frequency of use, suitability,
accuracy, previous experience, and manufacturer’s recommendations.
6.3.12 Issuance, return and maintenance of the inspection, measuring and test equipment
shall be controlled by each Department user by means of logging-in/-out.
6.3.13 The QCD will confirm and monitor the calibration status of equipment during in-
process examination. Each time after the equipment recalibration, the certificates
and register to be updated
6.4 Extent of Re-inspection, Re-examination or Re-Test
6.4.1 When deficiencies are found in equipment covered by this procedure, the deficient
equipment will be immediately tagged as such (“NOT TO BE USED”) and segregated
from the construction work to prevent inadvertent further use of the equipment until
repaired and/or re-calibrated.
6.4.2 When any registered equipment is found to be out of calibration at the re-
calibration, Subcontractor shall immediately submit the evaluation reports of the
validity and acceptability of the previous inspection, examination or test results
conducted using defective equipment, and the extent of re-inspection, re-
examination, or re-test to PSJV SQM.

Note.2: Torque meters will be tested prior to use against a "Master". The "Master" will be
calibrated every 12 months by an external laboratory. The “Master” will be purchased with a
valid calibration certificate.

Frequency of validation
Records of validation / calibration for each welding machine must be kept indicating
Manufacturer, Type and Serial Number
General Note: The maintenance of the accuracy and the consistency of the performance of the
welding equipment is a key component in the final quality of the weld. Based on the above the use
of meters and measuring equipment on welding machines that are required to produce welds of
high integrities and reliability is strongly recommended.
