Choke manifold test offline with the rig HP testing unit

Preparation

- The Tool Pusher or the Night Pusher (PIC) must inspect and approve the installation before the test
procedure is started and operates all valves to ensure they are working properly.

- Cold work permit to be issued and JSA discussed with the parties involved in the testing job.
- Pre job meeting with the personnel involved. Barrier tape around the Choke manifold and close area
access, according with GSP Procedures Manual. For the first test of the manifold, which places the
entire manifold under test pressure, ensure that all personnel are removed to a safe area, preferably
behind a solid barrier. Ensure that all entrances to the test area are closed and under control. For
subsequent tests of the manifold, ensure that all personnel are in a safe area and that control of all
entrances to the test area is maintained.

REMARK: Through the cementing manifold we can connect the high pressure pump, instead
cementing pump.

- Fill up Choke Manifold with Sea Water.


When you have return through the poor boy to the flow line, stop the pump.

- Connect testing line (cementing line) to valve #3. Close valve #3 and test the valve and the test line.

-Always apply the pressure step by step.

Put back the choke manifold valves in drilling position

NB: The test pressure applied must not exceed the working pressure of the choke manifold and
valves.
