2.0 SCOPE OF SUPPLY

2.1 OWNER’S SCOPE OF SUPPLY

2.1.1 Subject to the provisions mentioned elsewhere in the tender document, HPCL will issue the
following materials free of charge from Stores at Site
for the Steel plates required only for the following components of the tanks:
- Bottom: Annular Ring & Sketch plates

- Shell plates
- Roof plates
- Reinforcing pads for all shell /roof openings and manholes except cleanout nozzle.
- Datum plates for gauge well pipe.
- Primary/Secondary wind girder (For all C/R tanks only) including plate gussets/ plate
stiffeners.

THE WEIGHT OF ABOVE PLATES WILL BE BASED ON SP. GR. OF STEEL @ 7.85. THAT
IS, UNIT WEIGHT SHALL BE 7850 KG/CU.M.

2.1.3) SCRAP/ CUTTING ALLOWANCES FOR OWNER’S FREE ISSUE

MATERIALS

The plates will be issued by HPCL to the Contractor on Theoretical weight basis. At the end of
the work, Reconciliation shall be also done on theoretical weight basis only.

A Tabulated statement showing the size wise plates issued and Total consumption will be
prepared as per HPCL instructions. Based on the Total consumption in MT as a sum of
individual size wise consumption for a particular site, generation of maximum 2.7%
Returnable accountable scrap is allowed. The Returnable Accountable scrap includes Off cuts
and plates smaller than 2400mm perimeter .Off cut plates shall be of minimum perimeter 2400
mm generated as per approved cutting Schedules. Plates smaller than 2400mm in perimeter are
also classified under Returnable Accountable Scrap. On an overall basis, the generation of
accountable scrap shall be limited to 2.7% of total net consumption taken as a sum of net
consumption for various sizes. However, the Contractor shall make an all out effort at the time
of preparation of Drawings/ BOQ to limit the generation of Returnable Accountable Scrap to a
minimum preferably less than 2.7%.It will be the responsibility of the Contractor to load,
transport the accountable scrap, weigh at weighbridge including payment of weighbridge
charges, return to HPCL Premises, Unloading and handing over to HPCL at their Store yard/
scrap yard as per instructions of HPCL Engineer-in-Charge. Apart from Accountable Scrap,
the Contractor shall be allowed a maximum of 0.30% of Burnout Losses.
 In case, the actual generation of Returnable Accountable scrap on overall basis is higher than
2.7% or burnout losses being greater than 0.30% of Overall consumption(Theoretical tonnage),
then HPCL shall effect recovery @ Rs. 60,000/= per MT for excess scrap generation and/or
burnout loss. It shall be therefore the sole responsibility of the Contractor to plan the cutting
schedule to control his scrap generation within above limits.

2.2 CONTRACTOR’S SCOPE OF SUPPLY

The procurement and supply in sequence and at the appropriate time of all materials and
