1.0 SCOPE

There are two 3000m³ control-storage tanks have been put into production at WTP, CNOOC
will add one new 3000m³ control-storage tank to reduce the water intake and water quality
wave for the process flow.

The primary purpose of three 3000m³ control-storage tanks is to remove gross quantities of
oil and solids by gravity separation prior to further treatment downstream. In addition to
primary separation of oil and solids, the tanks will balance water supply and demand, and
provide enough buffer capacity for flow surges which may occur as a result of upstream
upset conditions.

The tanks will be based on 8 hours residence time, each equivalent to a dimension of 18.9m
diameter and 12.38m height for a total capacity of 9000m³.

2.0 PURPOSE

The purpose of this construction procedure is to have an appropriate methodology to carry

out the Erection, welding, Inspection and NDT activities of control storage Tank
(TK851001C) by Conventional Method at Missan Oil Field, BUT, WTP Upgrade Project.
