PREFACE

DEPs (Design and Engineering Practice) publications reflect the views, at the time of publication, of:
Shell Global Solutions International B.V. (Shell GSI)
and/or
Shell International Exploration and Production B.V. (SIEP)
and/or
other Shell Service Companies.
They are based on the experience acquired during their involvement with the design, construction, operation and
maintenance of processing units and facilities, and they are supplemented with the experience of Shell Operating Units.
Where appropriate they are based on, or reference is made to, international, regional, national and industry standards.
The objective is to set the recommended standard for good design and engineering practice applied by Shell companies
operating an oil refinery, gas handling installation, chemical plant, oil and gas production facility, or any other such
facility, and thereby to achieve maximum technical and economic benefit from standardization.
The information set forth in these publications is provided to Shell companies for their consideration and decision to
implement. This is of particular importance where DEPs may not cover every requirement or diversity of condition at
each locality. The system of DEPs is expected to be sufficiently flexible to allow individual Operating Units to adapt the
information set forth in DEPs to their own environment and requirements.
When Contractors or Manufacturers/Suppliers use DEPs they shall be solely responsible for the quality of work and the
attainment of the required design and engineering standards. In particular, for those requirements not specifically
covered, the Principal will expect them to follow those design and engineering practices which will achieve the same
level of integrity as reflected in the DEPs. If in doubt, the Contractor or Manufacturer/Supplier shall, without detracting
from his own responsibility, consult the Principal or its technical advisor.
The right to use DEPs is granted by Shell GSI, in most cases under Service Agreements primarily with Shell companies
and other companies receiving technical advice and services from Shell GSI or another Shell Service Company.
Consequently, three categories of users of DEPs can be distinguished:
1) Operating Units having a Service Agreement with Shell GSI or other Shell Service Company. The use of DEPs
by these Operating Units is subject in all respects to the terms and conditions of the relevant Service
Agreement.
2) Other parties who are authorized to use DEPs subject to appropriate contractual arrangements (whether as part
of a Service Agreement or otherwise).
3) Contractors/subcontractors and Manufacturers/Suppliers under a contract with users referred to under 1) or 2)
which requires that tenders for projects, materials supplied or - generally - work performed on behalf of the said
users comply with the relevant standards.
Subject to any particular terms and conditions as may be set forth in specific agreements with users, Shell GSI
disclaims any liability of whatsoever nature for any damage (including injury or death) suffered by any company or
person whomsoever as a result of or in connection with the use, application or implementation of any DEP, combination
of DEPs or any part thereof, even if it is wholly or partly caused by negligence on the part of Shell GSI or other Shell
Service Company. The benefit of this disclaimer shall inure in all respects to Shell GSI and/or any Shell Service
Company, or companies affiliated to these companies, that may issue DEPs or require the use of DEPs.
Without prejudice to any specific terms in respect of confidentiality under relevant contractual arrangements, DEPs shall
not, without the prior written consent of Shell GSI, be disclosed by users to any company or person whomsoever and
the DEPs shall be used exclusively for the purpose for which they have been provided to the user. They shall be
returned after use, including any copies which shall only be made by users with the express prior written consent of
Shell GSI. The copyright of DEPs vests in Shell GSI. Users shall arrange for DEPs to be held in safe custody and Shell
GSI may at any time require information satisfactory to them in order to ascertain how users implement this
requirement.
All administrative queries should be directed to the DEP Administrator in Shell GSI.

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 SCOPE
This DEP specifies requirements and gives recommendations hoisting facilities and
weather protection for rotating equipment. It includes the factors to be taken into account
when deciding whether or not to provide hoisting facilities and whether or not to provide
weather protection.
A summary selection guide is given in Appendix 1.
This DEP is a revision of the DEP of the same number dated December 1999; a summary
of the main changes is given in (1.5).

1.2 DISTRIBUTION, INTENDED USE AND REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS

Unless otherwise authorised by Shell GSI, the distribution of this DEP is confined to Shell
companies and, where necessary, to Contractors and Manufcturers/Suppliers nominated by
them.
This DEP is intended for use in oil refineries, chemical plants, gas plants and exploration
and production facilities as well as distribution storage depots and installations.
When DEPs are applied, a Management of Change (MOC) process should be
implemented, this is of particular importance when existing facilities are to be modified.
If national and/or local regulations exist in which some of the requirements may be more
stringent than in this DEP, the Contractor shall determine by careful scrutiny which of the
requirements are more stringent and which combination of requirements will be acceptable
as regards safety, environmental, economic, and legal aspects. In all cases, the Contractor
shall inform the Principal of any deviation from the requirements of this DEP which is
considered to be necessary in order to comply with national and/or local regulations. The
Principal may then negotiate with the Authorities concerned with the object of obtaining
agreement to follow this DEP as closely as possible.

1.3 DEFINITIONS
The Contractor is the party which carries out all or part of the design, engineering,
procurement, construction, commissioning or management of a project, or operation or
maintenance of a facility. The Principal may undertake all or part of the duties of the
Contractor.
The Manufacturer/Supplier is the party which manufactures or supplies equipment and
services to perform the duties specified by the Contractor.
The Principal is the party which initiates the project and ultimately pays for its design and
construction. The Principal will generally specify the technical requirements. The Principal
may also include an agent or consultant authorised to act for, and on behalf of, the
Principal.
The word shall indicates a requirement.
The word should indicates a recommendation.

2. SELECTION CRITERIA

2.1 GENERAL
If a building or structure containing heavy equipment does not have an overhead crane
installed, the roof and side walls of the building shall be removable and the area around the
equipment shall allow adequate access for mobile cranes.
The most important factors affecting a decision on whether to provide permanent roofing,
side walls and hoisting facilities above rotating equipment, or to install the equipment in the
open air are as follows:
(2.2) Category of rotating equipment
(2.3) Climatic conditions
(2.4) Maintenance activities and strategies
(2.5) Location of the equipment
(2.6) Crane operational requirements
(2.7) Economic considerations
(2.8) Offshore considerations
(2.9) Other considerations
The recommended Hoisting and weather protection for the various equipment categories
and climactic conditions are summarized in Appendix 1, Table 1.

2.2 CATEGORY OF ROTATING EQUIPMENT

The following categories can be distinguished:
Category 1:
Multi-stage turbo machines generally in accordance with ISO 10437 (API 612), API 616 or
617, such as turbo-compressors, turbo-generators, gas-turbine driven compressors, whose
power rating is greater than 5 MW (6700 hp) for low pressure applications or 10 MW
(13400 hp) for high pressure applications or whose heaviest part has a “maintenance
mass” greater than 2000 kg (4400 lb). Normally, the equipment is strategically planned for
on-site disassembly when overhauled. As a guideline only, the following equipment is
typical of this category:
• Back pressure steam turbine with a power rating greater than 10 MW (13400 hp).
• Condensing or extraction steam turbine with a power rating greater than 5 MW (6700
hp).
• Multi-stage compressor (axially-spilt outer casing) with a power rating greater than
5 MW (6700 hp).
• Multi-stage compressor (barrel type) with a power rating greater than 10 MW (13400
hp).
• Industrial gas turbine with a power rating greater than 10 MW (13400 hp).
Category 2:
Multi-stage turbo machines, without an installed spare, built to the same standards as
Category 1 but whose power rating is not greater than 5 MW (6700 hp) for low pressure
applications or 10 MW (13400 hp) for high pressure applications or whose heaviest part
has a “maintenance mass” not greater than 2000 kg (4400 lb).
Category 3:
• Equipment in Category 2 but having an installed spare.
• Turbo-compressors and turbo-generators driven by steam turbines in accordance with
API 611.
• Reciprocating compressors in accordance with API 618.
• Diesel/gas-engine-driven compressors, generators, pumps having a power rating not
greater than 250 kW (335 hp).

Category 4:
Auxiliary and general-purpose equipment of types normally falling outside categories 1, 2
and 3, e.g. pumps in accordance with ISO 13709 (API 610) and fire water pumps.

2.3 CLIMATIC CONDITIONS

In respect of the degree of protection required for the equipment and the maintenance area
in relation to climatic conditions, the following climatic conditions can be distinguished:
- very cold climates (e.g. Canada, Alaska, Russia, China, etc), and climates with high
snowfall
- cold to moderate with periodic wind, rain, frost and snow
- desert with periodic sand storms
- tropical with monsoon-type rainfall
- tropical and dry
- offshore marine - cold climate
- offshore marine - tropical climate
Providing a building in very cold climates significantly decreases the cost of weather-
proofing, decreases the amount of required maintenance and surveillance of the weather-
proofing, improves access for surveillance and maintenance of equipment, and improves
overall reliability and safety.
Providing weather protection in severe climates (e.g. desert, tropical, cold) decreases the
time required to perform maintenance tasks, and improves safety during maintenance
activities.

2.4 MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES AND STRATEGIES

For a planned overhaul or internal inspection, the necessary protection and hoisting
facilities can be prepared well in advance and sufficient time is also available for restoring
the unit to its original weatherproof state for outdoor use. However, experience has shown
that equipment in Category 1 and 2 has a greater chance of an unscheduled shutdown, and
it is not realistic to assume that time will be available to inspect and maintain neglected
overhead cranes, or to arrange for mobile cranes to be made available.
The type of hoisting facilities provided (e.g. mobile or permanent cranes) will influence the
time required to carry out maintenance activities and thus are linked to the category of the
equipment. Permanently available overhead cranes and weather protection shorten the
repair time. If rotors have to be installed or removed by a mobile crane, damage to the
rotors or labyrinths is more likely to occur, as all movements are less controllable.
The weight of the parts to be lifted and whether equipment is to be completely stripped at
site shall be taken into account in the selection of the hoisting gear.
The following permanent hoisting facilities may be considered:
a. Electric/pneumatic overhead travelling crane.
b. Overhead travelling crane, chain-driven with electric/pneumatic/chain hoist.
c. Jib crane with an electric/pneumatic hoist.
d. Hoist beam with an electric/pneumatic hoist.
e. Hoist beam with trolley for a chain block.
f. Special lifting equipment such as special hoists, jacking equipment, cradles, etc., which
may for example be used for the removal/manoeuvring of hot gas generators out of gas
turbine enclosures or any other special lifting device required to facilitate maintenance.
g. Offshore pedestal crane.

2.5 LOCATION OF THE EQUIPMENT

The location of the equipment in the plant and its accessibility for maintenance by mobile
cranes shall also be considered in the selection and specification of hoisting facilities.

2.6 CRANE OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS

2.6.1 Crane accessibility
If permanent cranes are not provided and hoisting will be performed by mobile crane(s),
each of the pieces of rotating equipment of interest shall be the subject of a lifting study by
the Engineering Contractor, to document the access requirements, crane size and rigging
requirements, and any other lifting requirements for the maintenance of the equipment. The
following shall be taken into account:
- Lifting operations over live equipment should be avoided wherever possible.
- Engine-driven mobile cranes will have restricted access to equipment when the
plant is operating, due to hazardous area classification.
- Mobile cranes or main cranes of adequate lifting capacity shall be able to access
the equipment in order to lift and lay-down the major assembly or individual
driver/driven equipment safely for both normal and irregular maintenance.
- The operator of a mobile crane shall be able to see the load being lifted, even for
mezzanine-mounted equipment.
- The increased risk to personal safety and risk of equipment damage during lifting.
- Regardless of whether permanent or mobile cranes are used, if a piece of rotating
equipment requires a special lifting device(s), there shall be a purpose-built storage
space for the device(s) adjacent to the rotating equipment, to ensure the lifting
device(s) is not lost. Also, there shall be a truck-accessible lay-down space, where
the crane can set the equipment onto a truck of suitable size, for transport to a
workshop.
2.6.2 Crane availability
The availability of mobile cranes at short notice (e.g. evenings, weekends, holidays, etc),
and during a plant's major overhaul, shall be considered when deciding between
permanent and mobile cranes.
2.6.3 Crane characteristics
Where permanent onshore hoisting facilities are specified they shall be electrically or
pneumatically (using dry instrument air) driven and shall have the following capabilities:
a)
hoisting speed, slow between 0.30 m/min and 0.40 m/min (1 ft/min and 1.3 ft/min),
with jog facility
hoisting speed, fast between 4.5 m/min and 5.5 m/min (14.5 ft/min and 18 ft/min)
cross-travel speed between 8 m/min and 10 m/min (26 ft/min and 33 ft/min),
with jog facility
long-travel speed between 15 m/min and 18 m/min (49 ft/min and 60 ft/min),
with jog facility

a) The slow hoisting speed range shall apply for a lifting mass of 15 ton or more.

2.6.4 Crane sizing

Once a decision has been taken to install an overhead travelling crane, an appropriately
sized crane shall be installed. Previous guidelines to install a crane ‘sized for the heaviest
maintenance lift’ have not always resulted in the most suitable selection. Although a smaller
crane is less convenient because it requires more disassembly of equipment for lifting, a
large crane requires more structural steel and is more expensive. The crane shall be large
enough to lift:
• a radially-split compressor body, without requiring bundle removal;
• the casing top half (or other heavier component) of an axially-split compressor;
• a reciprocating compressor crankcase, without requiring removal of the crankshaft;
• an induction motor driver, without requiring disassembly;
• the heavier of the rotor or stator of a synchronous motor (or the whole motor, if it is not
much heavier than the driven equipment).
2.6.5 Crane controls
For control of an overhead travelling crane, a remote control unit suitable for the hazardous
area classification is preferred to a pendant controller (i.e. a control unit that hangs down
from the crane rail on a cable).
2.6.6 Crane maintenance
Overhead travelling cranes are only reliable if they are regularly inspected and maintained.
If they are not protected from the elements, they will require more frequent inspection and
maintenance. Therefore, when permanent cranes are installed they shall have maintenance
programmes and any required certification testing entered in the maintenance management
system).
NOTES: 1. The practice of scheduling the crane for inspection and maintenance just prior to scheduled
maintenance of the process equipment is often incorrect and can result in the crane not operating
reliably when required for unscheduled maintenance of the process equipment.
2. Local regulations shall be followed regarding frequency of inspection and certification.

2.7 ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS

A Cost Benefit Analysis for the actual site conditions should be performed whenever a
deviation from Appendix 1, Table 1 is considered. Apart from the obvious factors, the
analysis should consider the following:
• Effect on repair times and availability of equipment (if the required on-stream availability
is 95 % or greater, overhead travelling crane(s) are recommended).
• Additional safety measures to mitigate the risk of using mobile and/or temporary lifting
facilities.
• Effect on man-hours and manpower, both of which are higher for temporary lifts; this is
probably more significant to cost and safety on an offshore facility.
• Crane cost recovered during construction (especially for field assembly of reciprocating
compressors).
• Frequency of maintenance (especially for reciprocating compressors, or where multiple
units are installed on the same deck).
• The final selection of the hoisting facilities shall be subject to the approval of the
Principal.

2.8 OFFSHORE CONSIDERATIONS

The requirements for hoisting equipment are more critical on an offshore facility due to the
inherent space limitations. Mechanical handling aspects, including consideration of special
lifting/storage containers for offshore use, shall be included as an integral part of a topsides
layout and the structural and piping design to ensure adequate access by personnel and
mechanical handling equipment. In particular, piping, cable trays, etc., shall be routed so
that they do not need to be removed to gain access to equipment requiring maintenance.
 DEP 31.25.00.10-Gen.
November 2008
Page 10

Although equipment installation and maintenance is the main objective of mechanical

handling, good layout and design of structural steel and piping within an equipment
package can provide a significant contribution to the success of overall platform design and
subsequent operation.
The relatively high cost and safety risk of installing temporary lifting facilities (including
scaffolding) on an offshore platform should be taken into account as part of total life-cycle
cost analyses. A permanent facility may provide the lowest total cost option and may be
integrated with the equipment package or may be part of the platform structural design.
Pedestal cranes on offshore platforms shall be arranged and designed to access all
equipment on the top deck. Also, hatches should be utilised to enable the crane to access
equipment on lower decks wherever possible. In particular, it is of great benefit to be able to
use the cranes to lift seawater and firewater pumps on fixed installations and vertical cargo/
water pumps on Floating Production Storage and Offtakes (FPSOs). Adequate areas shall
be provided to enable equipment to be laid down while maintenance activities proceed.

2.9 OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

There are other factors affecting a decision on whether to provide a partial or full building or
structure, or enclosure for rotating equipment, which will affect the approach to hoisting the
equipment. These include:
• Considerations for fire or blast protection.
• Considerations for falling object protection.
• Considerations for near-field or far-field noise reduction.
• Considerations for mitigation of hot surface risk (e.g. gas turbine hot surfaces).
• Considerations for hazardous area segregation.
