Revision A

This procedure provides a detailed method for the construction of the Ain TSILA Operations
Gathering System Right of Way to ensure safe movement along the pipeline route.

2.0 Scope
This procedure shall be used to construct road for the construction of pipeline in accordance with
the operator specification and drawing (A-PLE-DWG-200-30001/A-PLE-DWG-200-30002).

In pipelines construction there is two distinct ways (tracks) work track and services track.

Work track is that used for side boom and welding machine traffic, this track is the nearest to line-
axis trench, it is performed by means of a bull Dozer and ground level engine, it allows good engine
traffic during pipe stinging, welding and lowering activities.

Service track is performed to facilities the access to work site, this one is mainly used by trucks,
vehicles, personnel transport vehicles, gas oil supply tank Lorries, consumable supply. This track is
performed in the same time as the work track.

Service track is differentiated from the work track by the addition of a compact tuff layer to make
suitable for trucks and vehicles traffic.

7.0 SEQUENCES & METHODOLOGY

For Right Of Way Construction there are Two operations Clearing and Grading with
Cleaning

As bellow :

7.1 Clearing, Preparing The Row

 The ROW is cleared by bull dozer in order to clear it from any obstacles according to
pipeline markers, service track shall follow the pipeline markers first established by
survey crew according to client’s sketches, plans (A-PLE-DWG-200-30001) / (A-PLE-
DWG-200-30002) and the Project alignment sheet.

Before clearing and grading of the ROW there are Precautions and conditions to take
by Sarpi Team as a preliminary as bellow :

 All brush, undergrowth and timber on the construction Right-Of-Way shall be cleared
for a width per project route maps.
 All shrines and monuments including border stones shall be protected during R.O.W
operations.
 In case of the ROW comes within 25 meters of an existing pipeline, existing pipeline
shall be fully identified & barricaded to safeguard it while ROW clearing.
 Ensure Width of ROW Protection of all archaeological structures (e.g. shrines and
monuments), including border stones, survey reference points and Falaise.
 Temporary kilometer markers shall be installed and maintained to facilitate location
reference and progress reporting during construction.
7.2 R.O.W Grading
 After the passage of the bull dozer, a grader is used to level ground in order to allow
suitable traffic vehicles.
 Sarpi Team will grade, level R.O.W strips and make free from debris, vegetation and
all other detrimental materials areas.

Revision A

 Water ditches and water crossings shall be bridged over or a diversion installed so as
not to interfere with the water flow.
 Sarpi team will locate the position of all existing underground services (i.e. cables and
pipelines) utilizing suitable detection equipment and by the best accuracy and location
by trial holes which shall be hand dug.
 A tuff layer is necessary especially in sandy zones, this layer shall be constructed
using suitable material approved by the COMPANY/ CONTRACTOR. To ensure that
the construction is level suitable for light vehicles, this layer shall be graded, wetted
and rolled to ensure a low level maintenance during the construction of pipeline.
 Any large rocks in the path of the temporary access road shall be moved to a suitable
distance to ensure that these do not cause a safety issue for personal or vehicle using
the row.
 Goal posts shall be erected on each side of any overhead electrical lines, which cross
the R.O.W or site access roads of a pipeline with sign indicating max height.
 Wherever required (or as specified in the project specification), ramps / cross overs
shall be constructed for equipment's, vehicle movement etc. The ramp or suitable
controls shall be built to ensure that load transferred on third party utility is well below
the permissible limits as per ASME B31.4 / B31.8 / Statutory requirement.
 All selected material required for the construction of the temporary access road shall
meet the approval of the COMPANY/ CONTRACTOR.
 All areas where selected material shall be obtained (borrow pits) then this shall require
the approval of the location, documented in conjunction with the COMPANY/
CONTRACTOR.
 During ROW preparation, good housekeeping practices will be followed.
7.3 R.O.W Cleaning & Restoration
 During & after commencing construction work all R.O.W to be cleaned from waste
material, welding consumable, paper, plastic bottles & scrap material
 The excess soil along the ROW strip to be levelled as per company approved level
plans.
 All creeks, water courses, wells, siphons, drains, streams, wadis, ditches and irrigation
channels to be reinstated to their former condition and their banks shall, if necessary,
be pitched with stone and/or faced with special protection to prevent washing out or
erosion.
 All roads and other private structures used for access or haulage shall be restored to
a condition existed prior to the commencement of the construction activity o 4 m wide
