The use of butterfly types will be selected for large flows with low pressure drops.
Valves with rotating plug shall be used in non-critical services.
For Cv values of approximately7 and lower, non-reversible globe valves shall be used.
Particular applications may require the use of one of the following types of valves:

2.4.6.4 Control valves sizing
The control valves sizing shall be calculated on the basis of the process operating
conditions and in compliance with the ISAS75.01.01. The aim of the maximum rangeability
could be reached if the CV is calculated taken into the following considerations:
CV maximum is:
− Calculated using the maximum flow in conjunction with the minimum pressure
drop across the valve.
− -Selected by usually increasing the calculated maximum CV by a 20 to 30% of its
value.
CV minimum is:
− Calculated using the minimum flow in conjunction with the maximum pressure
drop across the valve and the same run conditions.
− Selected by usually decreasing the calculated minimum CV by a 15 to 20% of its
value.
The manufacturers published Cvs shall be used to determine the valve size.
The controllable Cv values shall be within the limits of 10% and 90% of the total valve
opening, normal flow shall coincide with 80% of the total valve opening for the equal
percentage type and with 70% for the linear type.
Butterfly valves shall be sized for a maximum opening angle of 60°. Exception is made for
characterised disc valves, which may be sized for a maximum opening angle 90°.
For liquid sizing in a pumped circuit the pressure drop allocated to the control valve will take

minimum pressure drop requirements for control purposes.
2.4.6.5 Noise
Noise calculation shall be done for each control valve. Control valve design (including body,
trim, diffusers, etc.) shall be suitable to ensure that the noise result calculation is always
less than 85 dB(A) at one meter distance downstream of the valve. COMPANY/EPC shall

spring opposed, field reversible, diaphragm-type. Piston operators may be used in severe
pressure drop services or when fast stroking time is required.
Valve actuators shall be preferably diaphragm, direct acting type except for single ported,

If the instrument air is not present in the plant, or the pneumatic/hydraulic actuators are not
desired, the actuators for control valves shall be electrical type. The electrical actuator will
be equipped with position sensing equipment, torque sensing, motor protection, logic
control, and digital communication capacity. The expected performances (such as response
time, speed of operation, resolution, repeatability, and accuracy) of the electrical actuator
have to be similar or better than the pneumatic actuator.
2.4.6.8 Control valves accessories
Positioner or booster relay
Generally all control valves shall be provided with a pneumatic positioner.
Pneumatic Positioner will be 0,2÷1,0 barg. Input, output signal will be in accordance with
the actuator signal range.
When for process reason a need of high flow is required to satisfied stroke velocity, a
booster relay will be added to the Positioner output.
All Positioners and relays shall be equipped with Pressure gauges (double dial: barg and
psig) at Inlet signal, output signal and supply.
This instrument receives a 4 to 20 mA DC input signal, and uses an I/P converter, nozzle-
flapper, and pneumatic relay to convert the input signal to a pneumatic output signal.
Air Filter-Regulators
An air filter-regulator is required for each control valve air user, such as positioner, booster,
etc. They shall be self reducing valve type and of all-metal construction. A 50 mm diameter
output gauge shall be provided, calibrated in barg to set operating pressure and the scale
shall cover instrument air system’s operating range.

Current to Pneumatic Conversion (I/P) for a control room 4÷20 mA control signal to a 0.2 to
1.0 barg pneumatic signal (with double dial barg/psig) shall normally be loop powered by 2
wires. Converters shall be field adjustable
The transducer receives the direct current input signal and uses a torque motor, nozzle-
flapper, and pneumatic relay to convert the electric signal to a proportional pneumatic
output signal. Nozzle pressure operates the relay and is piped to the torque motor feedback
bellows to provide a comparison between input signal and nozzle pressure. The transducer
can be mounted directly on a control valve.
Hand-wheel
Every control valve shall be provided with a hand-wheel. It shall preferably be side
mounted, suitable gearing shall be provided where necessary to keep turns and torque
applied at hand-wheel to a minimum.
Limit Switches
Control valves shall normally not be fitted with limit switches, however where limit switches
are required to provide status indication of control valves, these shall be provided fully
installed.
Limit switches shall have a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) contacts suitable for the
electrical area classification. They shall be mechanical type or magnetic type.
The limit switches shall be enclosed inside a box certified according to the area hazardous
electrical classification.

line specification in which the valve is installed. Threaded bodies may be used if
permitted by the piping specification.
• Self-actuated temperature regulators on steam or water service shall be of the
vapour pressure type with copper bulb and copper capillary with stainless steel
armour and stainless steel thermowell.
2.4.8 Anti-surge Control valves

The anti-surge control valve is necessary to protect centrifugal or turbo-compressor
machines from pulsations of pressure and flow, better known as a surge. Under normal
operation, there is a specific relationship between the pressure head across the
compressor and the flow through it. But this stable relationship can be disturbed by sudden
changes in flow, pressure and density, usually caused by sudden variations in demand at
compressor downstream.
The common method to prevent this condition is to include in the discharge line a control
valve along with appropriate instrumentation to recycle the gas to the compressor suction
line. This ensures there is always an adequate minimum flow through the compressor to
maintain operation above the surge point.
In practice, the load changes can happen very quickly so the anti-surge instrumentation
and valves must have a fast response.
Control valves for process control applications are sized as specified in the section 2.4.6.4
but, for anti-surge compressor service, the sizing must address the conditions that may be
conducive to surges at different flow requirements and different compressor speeds.
Criteria for anti-surge valve sizing have to be based on the following:
− Provide adequate anti-surge protection for worst possible disturbances
− Provide adequate anti-surge protection in all operating regimes
− Sized to avoid choke zone
− Not be oversized from controllability point of view
Valves on this service have to be able to handle surges in flow above the normal maximum
flow required by the process. This may result in a larger valve than would be required for a
normal process control application.
Then if the rated travel of the valve is not excessive, the higher flow/lift relationship of a
larger valve might offer the added advantage of achieving significant flow changes in a very
short time. The anti-surge valve selection must consider to have speed a response
adequate for anti-surge protection for all disturbances.
Unless different project requirements, the recommended full stroke times are the following:
Size Close to open Open to close

1” to 4” 1 second < 3 seconds
6” to 12” 2 seconds < 5 seconds
16” and up 3 seconds < 10 seconds
Closing time needs to be the same order of magnitude to assure the same loop gain in both
directions of the flow.
Then, the actuator’ speed is the dynamic performance requirement that require special
attention in terms of reaction time (or response time) to initiate movement after a demand
signal change, and speed of operation once motion is initiated.
Anti-surge valves can operate anywhere between 0% and 100%.
In order to have an equal loop-gain over the whole operating range a linear valve is
required. This will allow for the fastest tuning leading to smaller surge margins. Also, the
Linear characteristic is more commonly used due its rapid increase in flow at low lift. Equal
percentage characteristic is also used on occasions. Special flow/lift characteristics will be
designed in order to ensure that the anti-surge valve operates effectively as near to the
surge line as possible.

2.4.9 Choke valves

Choke valve shall generally have angle body and the preferred trim should be the cage
type.
However, the Manufacturer can propose a different solution in order to respect process and
project conditions.
Choke valves may be operated manually (by hand wheel) or automatically.
In case of manual choke valves, these shall be operated by top-mounted hand-wheel gear-
operated actuator. Opening and closing directions shall be clearly stamped on the hand-
wheel. Choke valves shall be fitted with travel indicator. An embossed arrow indicating the
flow direction must be stamped on the body of the valves
When automatic control is required, the valve actuator can be pneumatic or hydraulic type.
Also, it will be generally linear piston type, or double acting, unless other configurations
were necessary.
The control may be implemented:
- step by step;
- continuously.
A step by step mechanical positioning system is directly connected to choke valve spindle.
The double acting thruster linear movement is converted into step by step motion. The
thruster linear movement is achieved by energising a solenoid valve for a period necessary
to allow the thruster to complete one stroke. On completion of a pulse period, the thruster
moves to its initial position ready to carry out the next stroke to extend opening or closing of
the choke valve.
The remote signal (4-20mA, 24V DC, 2 wires, HART protocol) will be sent by the UCP. The
Manufacturer shall supply specific electronic equipment to carry out the step by step
positioning and to send back to the UCP the actual valve status by means of a position
transmitter (4-20mA, 24V DC, 2 wires, HART protocol).
Transmission between actuator and valve shall be furnished for easy access to choke valve
internals, without the need to remove the actuator and the control system.
In case of continuous control, the actuator shall be similar to a standard control valve
actuator, receiving an analogue signal (4-20mA, 24V DC, 2 wires, HART protocol).
Manufacturer shall verify the calculation accordingly with ANSI/ISA 75.01 standards, latest
revision. Admissible noise level shall not exceed 85 dB(A).

of valves - Part 2: Tests, test procedures and acceptance criteria – Supplementary
requirements).

such a way that, in the event of control air failure, they can drive the plant toward safe
conditions even when the envisaged maximum pressure drop, caused by the process
fluids, is applied to the valve ports.

industrial valves - Basic requirements), “The maximum allowable pressure shall be at least
8 bar, unless otherwise specified. The minimum test pressure for pressurised parts shall be
1,43 times the maximum allowable pressure”. Then, the actuator cylinders shall be rated for
the maximum air pressure value (design pressure) that could be around 10÷11 Barg.; while

be fixed; distance shall be established according to fireproofing or insulation thickness.
All the junction boxes shall show on the exterior of the closing cover, the same identification
tag as the one given to their multi-cables. During the connections of the cable inside the
junction box, a sufficient excess of cable shall be foreseen to allow eventual modifications.
All the covers of junction boxes must be perfectly closed when people are not working on
them in order to avoid any infiltration of sand, or water, inside.
2.5 OVERALL BLOCK DIAGRAM AND PHILOSOPHY

Here below is shown a common arrangement related to a Package equipment skid
mounted (such as gas compressor, turbo-generator, multiphase pump, etc.) with relevant
Unit Control Panel (UCP) which is interfaced with the plant control / safety systems and
electrical equipment.
The plant’s control system could be a Distributed Control System (DCS) or a Supervisory
Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system. The plant’s safety system will be the
Emergency Shutdown System (ESD) and Fire & Gas system; these systems can be
integrated in a common system called ESD/F&G system.
Whenever a functional unit (such as gas compressor unit, turbo-generator unit, multiphase
pump, etc.) will be equipped with a UCP per each machine and some facilities common to
all machines, a Master Control Panel (MCP) shall be foreseen with the capabilities to
handle the common facilities, the communications with each UCP, and will be also the sole
connection point with the plant control and safety systems. Whenever there are not any
common facilities to all machines, the MCP system could be not used if the PLC’s
performances can allow the master/slave communication handling ensuring also the sole
connection point with the plant control and safety systems.
Also, the presence of the MCP could not be necessary if each UCP will be capable either to
handle the common software facilities (such as load sharing) and to switch these controls to
another UCP in case of failure/maintenance without lose any control.

generally it is PLC based with the latest release of hardware and software industrial type
and each UCP shall be equipped with at least the following main equipment:
• Human Machine Interface (HMI),
• Control machine/package system (PLC with CPUs, I/O cards, communication
cards, Power supply modules, etc.),
• Vibration Monitoring System,
• Anti-surge system (only for gas compressor package)
• Load sharing system (only for gas compressor units within the MCP)
• Variable Frequency Drive (only for multiphase pump)
• ESD / FIRE & GAS system (if required);

In order to allow a proper and safe data exchange among the involved systems, provided
by the PACKAGE SUPPLIER, and to/from the plant control system, the PLC shall provide a
redundant communication connection with high performances in terms of standard
interface, communication protocol, speed data exchange, reliability, availability, diagnostic,
etc. avoiding any bottle neck.
Interface signals to/from plant’s control system and PLC shall be achieved by a dedicated
dual redundant data link, whereas some critical commands/information signals are present,
they can be connected also hardwired.
In case of complete communication loss or major failure, communication shall automatically
restart after repair. At common restart, all commands issued by plant’s control system to
the UCP are set in accordance with PLC internal values (UCP is the logic master for all
information concerning the package). The failure of the link shall not affect the operation of
the package. The UCP shall be autonomous.
To ensure the detection of the communication failure, a watchdog function, in the form of
periodic incremental counters, shall be available and exchanged between the plant’s
control system and UCP through the digital data link.
Whenever requested, the UCP can be located in a dedicated shelter (joined with other
electric/electronic cabinets related to the same machine) that will be installed closed to the
machinery skid.

Monitoring System temperature cards.
Even if only one system for ESD and F&G functions is implemented, the functionalities
remain quite distinct. See the relevant PLC technical requirements (i.e.: SIL 3 certification,
technology, redundant and segregation criteria, Hardware and Software, etc) highlighted
inside the PLC section 2.10.2. Different SIL rating and/or technology for the UCPs safety
system shall be under project responsibility.
F&G is mainly initiated automatically and/or manually via F&G detectors or

devices/systems.
All loops and detectors shall be arranged such that any arising hazard can be easily
located. The F&G Cause and Effect charts shall detail the alarm and executive actions
taken on fire, gas or heat detection or manual activation.
A failed detector shall be NOT considered as a detector in alarm status.
Detection in at least 2 loops shall be required in order to initiate an executive action.

Detection in one loop (except for fusible plugs) shall provide an alarm only. In other words,
the Voting shall be 1ooN to generate an alarm, 2ooN to cause shutdown actions.
F&G detectors will be provided in all areas with a significant fire or gas hazard, and they will
be selected and located to maximise the speed and reliability of response.
The detector/device types that can be looped are the following:
− Manual Alarm Call-points (MAC)
− Smoke detectors (optical and multi-criteria types)
− Rate of rise detectors
− Thermo sensitive cables
− Acoustical/visual alarm systems

Page. 27 of 54
One or more manual emergency shutdown pushbuttons shall be available locally near the
package and wired to the UCP. A manual emergency shutdown pushbutton shall also be
available on the UCP itself.
The F&G detectors point to point type shall be in accordance with location. The Voting logic

− Flammable gas detection (infra red type)
− Toxic gas detection (if necessary)
− Air Sampling systems
Each Fire and Gas system will be interfaced with all necessary F&G detectors, distributed
inside the control container and around the skid / shelter.
The Fire and Gas systems shall follow the NFPA 72 standard or the EN 54 standard
according to project requirements.
SIL 2 is the minimum safety integrity level required for all involved UV-IR detectors and
Flammable gas detectors, according to IEC 61508 and IEC 61511.
PACKAGE SUPPLIER shall develop a detailed Cause and Effect Matrix showing all critical
inputs and outputs of the ESD and F&G system and their specific functions, in the context
of the protective philosophy adopted for the whole supply.
The selection of fire and gas detectors for an area shall be considered upon the expected
kind of fire, or gas, to be detected and the environment in which the detectors are located.
The location of the fire detectors shall take into account the following issues:
• Definition of the foreseeable leak source;
• Released gas dispersion/ dilution and influence of the ventilation air flow patterns;
• Shielding by beams, equipment and piping;
• Process system configuration;
• Accessibility for maintenance and testing.
Refer to following COMPANY standards 20193.VAR.SAF.SDS (Selection of sensors and
gas of fire detection criteria) and 27616.FFS.STA.SDS (Criteri di selezione dei rivelatori di
fumo).
Where possible detectors shall be looped on to common circuits based on: Economy of
wiring, Voting requirements, Fire zone limitations, System integrity.
Fire and gas monitoring modules shall be suitable for the field sensors which can be wired
with two or three wires; however the PACKAGE SUPPLIER will provide the proper signal
conditioning / detectors feeding where necessary.
2.6.2 Inert gas fire suppressant systems

Enclosure of machines (i.e.: turbines/engines where presence of personnel is not
permitted) will be outfitted with a suitable fire suppressant systems (i.e.: INERGEN),
automatically operated by fire detection after alarm sounding and time-out for safe
evacuation of personnel. Status of the system (automatic, manual, released) will be
displayed at each entry point. The system may be disabled (manual operation) for
interventions in the enclosure.
Equipment rooms without permanent presence of personnel will be equipped with inert gas
fire suppressant systems, automatically operated by fire detection after alarm sounding and
time-out for safe evacuation of personnel. Status of the system (automatic, manual,
released) will be displayed at each entry point. The system may be disabled for
interventions in the room.
This system shall follow the NFPA 2001 standard or the EN 12094 standard according to
project requirements.

Page. 28 of 54
2.6.3 Control functions of the UCP/PLC system

Unit Control Panel (UCP) allows the package control from the PLC system inside the
Package, while the plant control system consoles, located in the control building, will
perform generally a supervision function only.
Generally, the control functions of the UCP system will be the following:
• To handle the hardwired I/Os of the facilities units and/or control machine.
• To handle the communication with all involved automation equipment (i.e.:
Vibration monitoring system, Anti-surge system, Load sharing, etc.), and other PLC
if any, in redundant digital links (via Ethernet, Profibus, etc.).
• To communicate with the plant control system in redundant link (via Ethernet,
RS485).
• To receive synchronization messages (by means of GPS receivers) from the plant
control Systems and address to all slave equipment / systems linked to it.
2.6.4 Functions of Local control panel

Whenever the package machinery is mounted joined with the local equipment room, as a
complete module, the presence of a local control panel will be evaluated case by case.
Local control panel shall be designed mainly for local control during maintenance / testing
mode and detail diagnostic (if possible).
It consists generally of a fixed or mobile board, containing a set of the following
components:
− Lamps indicating at least Fault, Ready, Running status,
− Pushbuttons that will allow the basic functions such as Start and Stop, Emergency
stop,
− Selectors to allow the functions related to the Maintenance
The Local Panel shall be installed near the skid or directly on the skid. As a general
guideline any logic will be not done inside this local panel because all logics will be
performed by the package control system. Also, active components (externally fed) or
electronics are not allowed within local panels. The installation of this panel will be such to
allow an easy and safe access to it by a field operator. Local panel execution shall meet the
requirement of the Electrical Area Classification. Its degree of protection will be IP 65.
For a bigger machine / package, the local control panel may be more complex, including
supervision functions, such as detail statuses display via mimic displays on screen, detail
alarm processing, local data archiving, specific and maintenance operating modes for
special start-up, maintenance heavy operations, etc.
2.6.5 Vibration Monitoring System

The Vibration Monitoring System is normally required for each rotary machine (i.e.: gas
compressor, turbine, multiphase pump, etc.). The Vibration Monitoring System shall be
designed, constructed and installed for correct and safe operation at the environmental
conditions of this project. Each machine shall have its own Vibration Monitoring System
with dedicated racks, power supplies, monitors and other accessories so that no common
point of failure which could disable more than one machine of this project.
Design, construction and installation of the Vibration Monitoring System shall take care of
provisions for ease of maintenance; this shall include built-in diagnostics, ease of access,
ease of replacement and design of any necessary special tool and test equipment.
Provisions shall be made to prevent false alarm and false fault detection due to
maintenance operations. Disabling of an alarm circuit shall however activate a dedicated
alarm for remote annunciation on the Control System. The Vibration Monitoring System
shall interface with the UCP panel, through voltage free contacts and/or via redundant
serial link connections, to cause the shutdown of the relevant machine before malfunction
and/or equipment failure can cause further damage.
The Vibration Monitoring System shall continuously monitor machinery equipment status,
detect abnormal conditions and give the relevant information to the systems which it is
connected.
Vibration sensing will be performed by means of velocity, displacement and accelerometer
probes, connected to dual channels thrust position, accelerometer and velocity monitors.

Page. 29 of 54
Temperature sensors shall be 3-wire RTD type, Pt 100 to BS 1904 Cl. B in Ex-d housing,
directly connected to monitors; motor windings temperature RTDs will be led to junction
boxes on motor frame.
Each vibration and temperature monitor shall have independent channel; each channel will
be complete of LCD bar-graph type measurement display, “OK” status LED, alarm and
shutdown LEDs, Bypass switch, LED for alarm bypass, LED for line fault (open circuit or
short circuit occurs in a loop), and 4 to 20 mA analogue output; proportional to the
measured value, common shutdown output signal to be addressed to the UCP via
redundant serial connection (see the communication system mentioned in the overall block
diagram) and/or via hardwired connections. The shutdown settings will be individually
adjustable over the 0 to 100 % range. The Time delays for shutdown shall be field
adjustable over a range of 1 to 6 sec, as minimum. Circuit fault shall not initiate any
shutdown function.
SPDT voltage free contacts rated 1 A at 24 Vdc, resistive load, shall be provided on each
monitor; all contacts shall be wired up to the cabinet terminal strips. Relay status shall be
energised in normal process, supply and equipment conditions, output alarm and shutdown
contacts will connected as “open in abnormal condition”, i.e. fail safe concept. No output
shall be automatically reset.
2.6.6 Anti-surge control system

Anti-surge control system is normally required in a gas compressor package. The gas
compressor shall be capable to operate in automatic mode and stable conditions with a
feed flow rate turn down from 100% down to 0%, i.e. in full recycle, for all specified cases.
PACKAGE SUPPLIER shall confirm and guarantee that the proposed control system is
suitable for the safe operation of the unit according to this requirement and, in particular,
the anti-surge recycle control valve, the relevant instrumentation, and the Anti-surge control
system shall be designed to cover such operating range. Also, the quick response time is
one of the major requirements to be considered for the instrumentation (i.e.: pressure and
flow transmitters, solenoid valves, actuators, anti-surge valve, etc.) and for the anti-surge
control system.
The Anti-surge control systems shall be foreseen one per each compressor stage, to
ensure the operation of each machine safely away from the surge point. This control
function will be in any moment prevailing on all the other control actions, so that to provide
permanent protective interventions against surge, via the anti-surge recycle valve of each
compressor stage. The design and supply of the whole anti-surge control system for each
Gas Compressor, i.e. primary transmitters, control functions and logics, anti-surge control
valve, shall be within the PACKAGE SUPPLIER design responsibility.
When safety is critical, PACKAGE SUPPLIER has to design and supply safety components
closely linked to its machine operating, even if they are not installed within its skid.
Whenever transmitter and control valve are mounted out of its skid, PACKAGE SUPPLIER
is responsible for the complete integration of their package in the plant.
2.6.7 Load sharing control system

Load sharing control system is aimed to provide automatic actions to adjust the operating
point of the gas compressors (n° 2 minimum) that are simultaneously running, so that the
total net load will be equally shared.
As load parameter, the net flow from each compressor is measured and supplied to the
load sharing controller.
This control function will be active also for the machine swapping, e.g. in case of
replacement of one compressor with another for maintenance.
All parts of the load sharing control system, i.e. primary transmitters, control functions and
logics shall be part of the package unit scope of supply.
2.6.8 Variable Frequency Drive system

Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) unit, complete with all required electric and instrumental
controls, is usually used whenever it is necessary to control the electrical speed of a motor,
such as in a Multiphase pump package. The regulation of the drive frequency (motor-pump
speed) will be aimed at maintaining a constant inlet pressure, while assuring a full
production output in all stream conditions. A further flow rate regulation, to allow a
Page. 30 of 54
permanent margin of variation in the electric VFD, will be accomplished through specific
actions in the re-circulation loop of the pump.
The control functions assigned to this system include the electrical supply, conditioning and
conversion of the VFD and ancillary equipment (circuit breaker, power transformer,
switchboards, harmonic filters, etc.), the signals and commands handling - to and from field
instrumentation and operator, the stream flow regulation and the skid bypass and isolation.
All these functions constitute the basic process control, which will be implemented by
means of a conventional PLC architecture and standard I/O interfaces.
2.7 INTERFACE SIGNALS TO BE EXCHANGED
2.7.1 General
The purpose of this section is to define the inputs to PACKAGE SUPPLIER / EPC related to
the signals to be exchanged between the UCP (or MCP) and the plant ICSS.
Generally, the main information (signals, alarms, measurements) shall be addressed to
plant Control System where they will be available to Operator Work Stations in forms of
graphic pages, alarm pages, events, logging, etc. These data have to be properly selected
in order to provide only the major package information to the plant ICSS, while the UCP
operator station shall be capable to handle the complete machine without any limitation. In
this way we can also reduce the quantity of signals coming from UCP (or MCP) to the plant
control system with several advantages in terms of DCS performances and operating
handling.
For what concern the command functions (from plant DCS to UCP), they will be identified
according to project requirements and reduced as much as possible, without loose safety
and operability.
However, all information/data related to the maintenance and diagnostic shall be available
on a specific and dedicated communication channel with relevant necessary equipment
(i.e.: server, PC, etc.)
2.7.2 Interface signals
2.7.2.1 Turbo-generator Interface signals

An indicative Input/Output list, related to the Hardware and Software signals to be
exchanged from the package UCP (or MCP) and plant ICSS, is shown in the APPENDIX A.
2.7.2.2 Gas Compressor Interface signals

exchanged from the package UCP (or MCP) and plant ICSS, is shown in the APPENDIX B.
2.7.2.3 Multiphase pump Interface signals

exchanged from the package UCP (or MCP) and plant ICSS, is shown in the APPENDIX.
2.8 UCP VIDEO STATION

The graphic pages available on each UCP Video unit should follow the same approach of
plant ICSS in terms of colors for line and style. As well as the alarm representation should
be similar to the ICSS one.
The reason of these requirement is to have uniformity at operator level whenever this
equipment is requested to be located closed to the DCS operator stations.

Page. 31 of 54
2.9 INTERFACE MATRIX

The expected PACKAGE SUPPLIER’s responsibility shall be based on its know-how on
autonomy in design, well reference supplies, and global guarantee on operation,
performances, and testing activities.
The purpose of this Interface Matrix is to provide an overview of the activities to be done
and the possible interfaces (COMPANY, EPS/EPC CONTRACTOR, ICSS SUPPLIER) that
the PACKAGE SUPPLIER can meet during the project phases: design, supply, installation,
testing, commissioning & start up.
The following Interface Matrix can be applicable for those packages having Machinery;
while it is also considered the presence of other equipment/components to be located
outside the machinery skid itself.
The codes used in the Interface Matrix have the following meaning:
• D = DOCUMENT DEVELOPED BY
• A = DOCUMENT REVISED / APPROVED BY
• R = DOCUMENT REVISED BY
• X = ACTION BY = ACTION TO BE DEFINED
