2 PROJECT STRATEGY & OBJECTIVES
Based on information’s made available at bidding stage, GEOCEAN has decided to choose installation
methods and schedule allowing flexibility in offshore operations to limits SIMOPS with offloading terminal and
other contractor’s activities.
The project is intended to be developed according to the following sequences:

1. Pre-lay survey
2. Development of detailed construction method in accordance with applicable codes and standards
3. Preparation of NOGA 2A dedicated area for pipe strings prefabrication and launching
4. Erection of cofferdam curtain until shore line (KP50) and Temporary Sheet Piles Jetty
5. Excavation of the trench between KP50 to KP264 and from KP400 to KP 601 with Offshore Backhoe
Dredger
6. Installation of grout bags for crossing with existing line
7. Prefabrication and assembly of pipe strings (straight part) and bundle on NOGA 2A area with full
welding and NDT spread
8. Towing from Noga2A, positioning to final position and laying pipe by controlled sinking.
9. Installation of risers with Crane Barge assisted with divers.
10. Metrology and installation of subsea flanged spool to connect the section together (37 spools) using
Crane barge
11. Installation of FOC bundle using a Multicat (or equivalent) DP Vessel equipped with cable laying
equipment
12. Hydro-testing, cleaning, gauging and drying of installed pipelines
13. Backfilling of pipes and cables trenches at T Warf extremity and NOGA 2A land fall
14. Reinstatement of NOGA 2A.
15. As laid survey
It is important to note that above methodology increase number of flanges in comparison with design proposed
in the tender document. Other method like AWTI (flanges connection or welding) could be performed, but
short independent activities have been selected to reduce the SIMOPS.
If requested by CONTRACTOR, AWTI method can be proposed by GEOCEAN.

5.3 SPOOL DESIGN

Spool design will be confirmed during installation engineering; the spool length and shape will be defined
according to installation methods and environment and confirmed by installation analysis.
If analysis shows that the targets boxes of pipes string extremities can be reduced, short spool could be
installed using positioning structures.
If not, a design with additional bends will be proposed to obtain the necessary flexibility for fit up. The bend
would be additional manufactured bends to obtain a u-shaped spool. To be discussed and agreed with
CONTRACTOR and OWNER.
GEOCEAN will review pipes, bend and flanges MTO during engineering phase accordingly.

5.4 TEMPORARY CATHODIC PROTECTION SYSTEM
A preliminary study for a temporary cathodic protection system shows that a current quantity of 781A is
required to protect the system. GEOCEAN recommends to use 65 Fe/Si anodes placed in seawater and not
buried.
This quantity of anodes shall be separated in 2 beads, each feed with a 600A/24V generator.
5.5 DISPERSION STUDY

Upon CONTRACTOR request a turbidity analysis will be performed. This will simulate trenched and/or
backfilled material dispersion in water. The aim of this analysis is to compare results of simulation with the

8.1 PREPARATION OF NOGA 2A PLATFORM
The platform NOGA 2A will be prepared to match the installation requirement. The preparation of the platform
will consist in the following steps:
 Removal of rock armor with Onshore Backhoe at launching point.
 The launching slope will be created to reach the necessary water level (approx. 1m at low tide)
 Installation of approximatively 12 reinforced concrete beams to store welded pipes. Concrete beams
will be directly casted on site. Exact quantity will be confirmed after detail engineering
 Installation of Launching railway with trolley on the launching slope
 Soil Stabilization of the area to allow mobilized equipment to work in safe condition
 If required, prefabrication area will be fenced to prevent intrusion of external persons
 Installation of Site Office for GEOCEAN Workforce, powered by Generators. Fresh and disposal water
logistic will be performed regularly by trucks.

Note: The present layout is different from area proposed in the tender document in order allow launching of
the longest pipe string (510m). GEOCEAN has considered in the proposal that CONTRACTOR would accept
this change. However, operation duration has been optimized to occupy the area for as short as possible.
If not acceptable by CONTRACTOR, methodology could be impacted and may have impact on the proposed
planning and pricing.
Layout considered in the present offer is available in [B9].

8.2 SURVEY
A dedicated survey vessel will be mobilized during all the project operation duration to perform the
following activities:
 Initial survey before dredging start;
 Bathymetric survey during dredging activity;
 Pre-lay survey before towing and sinking of string;
 Survey during sinking string operation to ensure target reaching;
 Post-lay survey;
 Bathymetric survey during backfilling activity;
 Post backfilling survey.
The survey vessel will be equipped with the following equipment:
 RTK positioning system (GPS);
 MultiBeam EchoSounder (MBES) and SingleBeam EchoSounder (SBES) for bathy and mapping;
 Side Scan Sonar (SSS) only during initial survey for seabed textural information and topography;
 Bottom Scanning Sonar for crossing installation and string laying operation (see slide related to
sinking activity);
 Obs ROV available when needed;
 USBL sensor type AQUA-METRE R300-NG for spool metrology (accuracy between 2 & 5cm –
operational range between 150 & 200m)

8.3 TEMPORARY JETTY ERECTION - OPTIONAL
Temporary jetty will be erected from shore. Jetty design has been considered as per schematics hereafter.
The jetty location will be reinstated during GEOCEAN demobilization from NOGA 2A.
This scope is presented as an option in the commercial offer.

8.4 COFFERDAM
 Actual rock armor will be removed from Shore with backhoe
 Vibro-fonced cofferdam will be erected from KP0 until KP50 approximatively corresponding to shore
line the Cofferdam will be designed to limit quantity of reinforcement beam to allow dredging. This is
not in accordance with the tenders’ documents. Nevertheless, GEOCEAN propose this optimization
to reduce cost impact. CONTRACTOR requesting, GEOCEAN will supply specific quotation to extend
Sheet pile curtain until 85m if required.
 Excavation between sheet piles will be performed with standard backhoe. Excavated materiel will be
stored in the vicinity of the works. The storage location has to be defined by CONTRACTOR.
GEOCEAN has considered that storage area for dredged material is in direct vicinity of the works If
CONTRACTOR is defining storage area farther than 1 km from excavation point, extra material and
personal (not included in this offer) could be mobilized.
 No polluted soil is expected on the material to be extracted. However, GEOCEAN will perform
sampling test (2 test considered :1 test for each trench - land fall and T-Wharf). If polluted soil would
be discovered during trench opening, adapted treatment would be performed and would be treated as
Variation order.

8.5 DREDGING OF OFFSHORE TRENCH
The offer is based on Dredging and backfilling volumes and trenches characteristics from the document 061-
L-MST-50006-001-RA – Specifications for trenching and backfilling.
Dredging operations are planned to be performed during revamping of Berth 1 & 3. No specific ATEX
equipment have been considered at T-wharf for these operations.
Trench shall be opened from end of cofferdam up to KP 264, and from KP 400 until KP 601. Schedule and
price proposed are based on definition of volume and trench profil defined by CONTRACTOR in the tender
document.
Trenching will be performed by Backhoe Dredger and laid on seafloor for wet storage. It is important to note
that this wet storage should not interfere with tanker navigation as it is very punctual.
Armor protection will be removed with Backhoe
Overall trenching
All other dredging material will be disposed into Hooper barges. The hoper barges will be emptied with onshore
backhoe from temporary Jetty.

Dredged material will be loaded on trucks and stored in the vicinity of NOGA 2A to be used for backfilling.
Exact location of storage area will be defined by CONTRACTOR. GEOCAN has considered at this stage that
available storage area will be in direct vicinity of Noga 2A (within 1km of the site)
Dredging target level and slope are presented in CONTRACTOR’s tender documents. Based on document
available at bidding stage, no hard soil is expected.
Extra material is not included in the present offer, and can be quoted on CONTRACTOR Request
Specific and light dredging platform will be mobilized to dredge between actual catwalk at T-Warf. It is
understood that installation of Pulley system would be possible to maneuvers the specific dredging platform
between T wharf catwalk.
The dredging will be performed by pumping from this “platform”. Excavated material will be rejected in the
backhoe reach.
The platform will be anchored with ropes on T-wharf and equipped by manual winches.
The vicinity of the Terminal with Alba intake cooling system, less of 1 Nautical Mile south of dredged area,
require installation of silt screen nearby Alba’s factory Intake. (The exact location of this silt screen shall be
defined in coordination with Alba to prevent any disturbance in the Alba process.
Two (2) measuring buoys will be placed around third party potential impacting point Alba).
It is considered that intake is placed far away from outfall and less of 4m WD.
During dredging, regular bathymetric survey will be performed by multibeam sonder to confirm progress and
targeted dredged depth. At completion a full bathymetric survey will be performed.

8.6 PIPE PREFABRICATION
Pipes strings will be prefabricated on the dedicated area at

NOVA2A allowing prefabrication of longest string of 490m.
A complete team of qualified welders will be mobilized onsite to
perform SMAW (Root passes) and GSFCAW (Fill up and Caps)
as per DNV-GL Welding standard.
3 to 9 welding stations will be placed on a fire line and /or on
prefabricated area and mobile stations. All pipes strings will be
prefabricated on the area before onshore operation.
WPQ for main pipes and flanges will be performed in advance
assuming that welding coupons will be delivered in due time by
CONTRACTOR. Specific WPQ will be done for pipe thickness,
diameter and flanges.
NDT will be performed by AUT on 100% of the welds.
Before launching, pipes strings will be equipped with additional
floating devices allowing the pipe to float when full of air.
Some of the section could be prepared in bundle to reduce
interference with tankers movements. This will be decided during
installation engineering.
Before launching each pipe remain full of air as pipe’s sections
are equipped with blind flanges with 4in inlet. Electrical
connecting cables will be installed on each blind flange to
connect the pipe to the ICCP when submerged.

8.7 PIPE TOWING AND LAYING
Overview
Temporary mooring line will be placed in advance on the area to maintain the pipe in position during pipe
laying operation.
When area is ready and pipe prefabricated the pipes are towed to position with 1 Tug boat and 1 assistant tug.
The pipe will be positioned on surface by RTK DGPS system. Buoyancy will be removed from surface by
remote mechanical system.
Pipe position will be controlled by Side scan from surface or ROV and/or divers during lowering operation. At
completion, as laid survey is made to confirm absolute position of the pipes.
When pipe is confirmed to be in right position, preinstalled connecting cables are brought out of water at Wharf
extremity (Island wharf and T wharf). In the base case, It is understood than CONTRACTOR will then connect
the connecting cable to existing ICCP on surface.

At this stage, it is assumed that actual ICCP is suitable for protection of new pipes added to the existing
facilities. It is understood that pipes will be filled with Seawater prior metrology.
A temporary mooring buoy will be placed 1 Nm approx offshore in Sheltered area as contingency to moor
pipes string or marine spread if required.

8.8 RISERS INSTALLATION
Riser installation will be achieved from Working Crane Barge (WCB) mobilized on purpose for this work. It is
understood that crane barge will be moored alongside the berth under revamping at T-wharf, and along the
available loading berth at Island wharf.
The risers will be manufactured onshore in the same manner than pipes strings and bring to location by towing
method.
Risers will be upended and brought into riser clamp guided by ROV for the general approach and by divers for
the final approach.
It has been assumed that Riser clamps are design and installed by CONTRACTOR before riser installation.
Clamps shall be divers installation friendly
Divers will dive from Crane barge as per project diving standard.
12 riser’s installation have been considered in the present proposal.
Riser installation

8.9 SPOOL METROLOGY AND INSTALLATION
Simultaneously of risers and spool installation with WCB, spool metrology will be performed from secondary
Diving support (typically Multicat moored in 3 points).
Number of Spool is assumed to be 37 units in the present offer (NB: pipe section 4 is considered as spool in
our offer).
Sinking flange will be removed and metrology performed with PLSM or equivalent.
The metrology results will be transferred onshore and spools will be fabricated onshore, and launched from
launching ramp with additional buoyancy.
Spools will be installed with WCB moored alongside the Wharf. If required (depending of the spool weight)
additional buoyancy will be added on the spool to maintain apparent weight into acceptable weight for the
crane.
The spool will be launched full of seawater to allow underwater spool connection
Spool installation

8.10 FOC CABLE INSTALLATION
This section will be updated once information about cables design and packing are known.
FOC cables (i.e : 2 bundles/products) will be installed from Multicat in DP mode.
Multicat will be equipped with tensioner, dolly base and chute in cable configuration.
Cables will be installed from Island Wharf toward T wharf. Position of cable will be controlled by ROV, and
divers intervention could be done to correct cable route if required
Cable reel will be delivered by CONTRACTOR at temporary Jetty and loaded onboard multicat from Onshore.
It is understood that cable reel supplied by CONTRACTOR will not exceed 5m diameter and 20T weight.
When started, this operation cannot be stopped, this operation will therefore be performed on 24h basis.
During installation, supplier’s representative will test regularly the cable to ensure its integrity.
FOC Deployment

8.11 INSTALLATION OF CROSSING
The pipe lines to be installed are crossing existing pipeline routes. The crossing will be realized as follow:
 Installation of mattresses on Elbow of the crossing spool to ensure spool do not touch existing pipes.
These mattresses will be installed from Diving Support Vessel (type Multicat) moored on 3 anchor points.
 Grout bags will be placed together with the Spool. When all crossing spool and FOC cable are
installed, grout bags will be grouted from Grouting unit placed on multicat.

8.12 PRECOMISSIONNING
Summary
Pre-commissioning Scope presented in this proposal is consisting to:
 Cleaning and Gauging of the lines
 Hydro testing of the line
 Dewatering and Drying of the line
 N2 inerting of the lines
 MEG Swabbing
MEG swabbing is offered as an OPTION.
Cleaning, gauging and Hydro test will be performed with treated sea water.
As per clarification with CONTRACTOR, treated sea water will be recovered and treated onshore.
The use of fresh water for the pre-commissioning operation is proposed as an option.
