1.0 PROJECT SUMMARY
2.0
3.0
Kuwait Oil Company has a long-term strategy for the development of the North Kuwait
(NK) oil fields. The projected increase in the production of oil will result in increased
associated gas, The New Strategic Gas Export Pipeline under the Project EF/1943 will
increase the gas transmission capacity and reduce flaring. Design capacity will be 900
MMSCED, bringing the total nominal capacity of the three pipelines (Existing 30°,
Existing 30°/40” EF/1701 & new 30°/40" EF/1943) to 2230 MMSCFD. The pipeline and
associated facilities will be installed between Booster Station (BS) 132 and MAA in
parallel to the existing strategic gas pipelines. The new pipeline size will be 30°
between BS-132 to NKSC (approximately 13 km) and 40" from NKSC to MAA
(approximately 130 km).
Project facilities mainly include the following:
+ North Kuwait Gas Remote Control Room (NKGRC) & South Kuwait Gas
Remote Control Room (SKGRC)
+ New burn pits at NKSC, SKSC (gas and off-spec condensate) & Sectionalizing
Valve Stations
+ One new fiscal gas metering package (at MAA trap area)
+ Upgrade/ expansion of existing gas custody metering skids at NKSC and SKSC
+ Condensate Separation/ Treatment package at NKSC & SKSC
+ Inline Separator packages at MAA Trap Area
+ Expansion/ configuration! modification of existing ICSS/ SCADA systems at
BS-132, NKSC and SKSC
+ Retrofit of existing condensate pumps at SKSC to handle increased flow.
+ Upgrade! expansion of existing switchgears (3.3 kV and LV).
Other associated facilities of the pipeline inclide Corrosion Monitoring Stations,
Sectionalizing Block Valve Stations, Pig Traps, Solar Power System, Cathodic
Protection System, Pipeline Leak Detection Systems, Emergency Diesel Generators,
Corrosion Inhibitor Storage tanks etc.
PURPOSE.
The purpose of this procedure is to set out minimum requirements for Structural stee!
fireproofing works, which shall comply with the design requirements set forth in scope
‘of work and technical specification of this project “New Strategic Gas Export
Pipeline from North Kuwait to MAA” -EF/1943 (KOC), Project as per contract
specification.
SCOPE
This procedure applies specifically and only for the execution of the Project. “New
Strategic Gas Export Pipeline from North Kuwait to MAA” as per contract
specification. It covers the general requirements for structural steel fireproofing
application and inspection related to the Steel Structure in plant / facilities structures,
and structural supports for pipe/pipeline and multilevel pipe rack as mentioned
drawings.NeW STARTEGIC GAS EXPORT PRELNEFROM NORTH | pases: sorisa | ED)

18.2 Wet Coat Thickness (WFT)
Sufficient "wet readings" shall be taken by the Contractor's Coating Inspector, in
each shift / day of application while the PFP coating is sof to ensure that thickness
of each layer / total DFT complies with the requirement. The recommended
thickness tolerance that should be achieved on site is 0 to +3mm.NEW STARTEGIC GAS EXPORT PIPELINE FROM NORTH @

18.3. Spray density (Wet)
Spray density Shall be measured prior to the start of each shift and as and when
requested to ensure that the values meet the requirement of this Standard and
Manufacturer's published values. The method for wet density measurement shall be
as per the recommendation of the Manufacturer.11.8.4
18.4 Dry coat Thickness (DFT)
Total coating thickness (dry) shall be measured as per ASTM E60S/EG0SM and
recorded in daily inspection report. The maximum negative allowance in individual
thickness reading 6mm subject to average of 12 numbers of reading for columns and
9 number of readings for beam is equal to or greater than the total thickness required
as per the requirement.
18.5 Dry Density Measurement
Dry Density measurement of the installed and cured PFP coating shall be carried out
‘as per ASTM ES05/E605M. The locations to collect sample for density measurement
shall be at the discretion of the KOC Inspector and such damages shall be repaired
by the Contractor as per the requirement. The individual and average density value
shall not be less than minimum recorded density value for the sample that was fire
tested as per ANSI/UL 1709 and as published on UL online directory. Any negative
variation on the average density shall mandate the removal and reinstall of PFP
coating on the suspect area identified. The Frequency for dry density shall be once
at the start of the work and thereafter, once for every 500 m2 (square meter) area
applied.
18.6 Compressive Strength Test
Compressive Strength Test shall be carried out as per ASTM E761/761M for every
20 m3 of installed coating as per KOC standard of KOC-C-027, Rev.3. At the start of
job, dry density test as per ASTM E605/E605M shall be carried out test sample made
from the same material mix used for making test samples for compressive strength
test. The Vermiculite cement test sample have minimum 5 days curing period as per
KOC-C-027, Rev.3 Clause 11.4(b) and shall have minimum compressive strength
value of 450 psi, as per the KOC standard clause 9.2.1, Table-3, Serial no. 11.
18.7 Hardness
Hardness of the cured PFP coating shall be checked randomly using a Shore
Durometer (ASTM 02240) and recorded the coating inspection report including the
details of test location and type of Durometer used. minimum hardness values shall
fall within75% of the Manufacturer published values when checked after curing
period.
18.8 Adhesion Test
‘Adhesion test shall be carried out as per ASTM E736/E736M on an area as selected
by KOC Representatives Inspector. The minimum adhesion / cohesion values shall
fall within 75% of the Manufacturer's published values.NEW STARTEGIC GAS EXPORT PIPELINE FROM NORTH

REPAIR OF DAMAGES/DEFECTS:
Surface cracks wider than hairline cracks and other damages like disbanding, hollow
area, bulging, spalling. Shall be repaired by the contractor to the satisfaction of the
KOC at no additional cost. all repairs shall be as per clause 12.0 of KOC-027 Rev 3.
All damages on installed PFP coating resulting from tests / inspections shall be
repaired, in accordance with the relevant clauses of this Standard and Manufacturer's,
recommendation, to the satisfaction of KOC Coating Inspector/Representative at no
additional cost to KOC.
HEALTH, SAFETY AND ENVIROMENT:
Works shall be carried out as per KOC-C-027, Rev.3 clause 6.0, safe construction
practices and clients Safety procedures.
DOCUMENTATION:
For the purpose of reviewing the status of each stage of work/site tests, itis necessary
that the site survey report, daily activity report, if any, shall be prepared every day by
the Coating Inspector and kept separately.
All test reports and certificates during the construction phase will be issued to the
Company for review and at the end of the Project all reports and certificates will be
included and submitted to the Company in the final project documents,
