- utility data,
- mechanical running test logs,
- performance test logs.

7.5.2 Installation, Operating and Maintenance Manual

Six (6) copies of Installation, Operating and Maintenance Manuals shall be provided

8.0 PRIOR TO SHIPMENT

8.1 Painting

Surface preparation and painting shall be in accordance with GES X.01 with colour coding of equipment
and piping in accordance with GES X.02 using a system which complies with GES X.03.

8.2 Spares

The Vendor/Contractor shall submit with his initial equipment proposal, a priced list of recommended
spare parts for "Commissioning", "Start-up" and for "Two Years Operation".
 GENERAL ENGINEERING SPECIFICATION GES M.02
GAS AND DUAL FUEL ENGINES Page 19 of 19
Rev 0 1999

After review/approval of this list by the Owner, these spares shall be ordered and delivered with the main
equipment.

8.3 Packing and Storage

All flanged openings shall be provided with 3/16 in (5 mm) thick minimum metal closures with neoprene
