A01

Sand or other materials producing silica dust shall not be used. The abrasives shall be free from oil, grease, moisture etc, Re-used abrasive shall be clean, sharp and free from contaminants. 6.2 GRIT BLASTING At the construction yard, all pipes shall be grit blasted using the following procedures: a) Align pipes at open field area, laying the pipes side by side on racks. b) Fill grit-pot with grits via pot sieve. c) Connect compressor unit and blasting gun via hoses to grit pot. d) Put on compressor unit with valves in closed position. e) Prior to blasting, grit blaster and operator shall kit-up with their safety gears, which includes blasting hoods, blasting aprons, coveralls, safety boots, hand gloves, ear muff and eye goggles. f) During blasting operation, blasting area shall be completely free of other personnel. g) The operator shall gradually open the compressor valves and then the grit pot valves until the required pressure is obtained for blasting to S.A 2 1/2 (Near white according to SPDC specification SSPC-SP10). h) The grit blaster shall grit blast the pipes one after the other, making sure all exposed surfaces are blasted. i) The operator shall close all valves and put off compressor unit after blasting one by one all exposed surface of pipes, and turn pipes through 180 0 to expose the under sides. j) Repeat steps (d) to (i), to grit blast the remaining side of pipes. k) The hose shall be carbon imprignated to avoid static shock to the operator. During site grit blasting the following procedures shall be used: For height above two (2) meter, erect scaffolds to form platforms for grit blasters. Fill grit pot with grit via sieve. Connect compressor unit and two blasting guns via hoses to two grit pots. Put on compressor unit with valves in closed position. Operators and grit blasters shall kit-up with their safety gears, which includes blasting aprons, coveralls, safety boots, hand gloves, ear muff and eye goggles, prior to blasting operation. Blasting area shall be free of other personnel during blasting operations. The operators shall gradually open the valves until the required pressure is obtained for blasting to S.A. 2 . It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure that the compressed air supply is free from water and oil and shall not be allowed to deliver air at temperature above 110 degree centrigrade.

Dead manhandle to be connected along with blasting hose to the blaster for safely operation. 6.3 PRIMING AND PAINTING

6.3.1 PAINT APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS After grit blasting of pipes, and structures they shall be primed with the appropriate primer within 4 hours of abrasive cleaner application. The paint shall be applied in accordance with the manufacturers product data sheet, which shall include the mix ratio, the method of application, the use of thinners and over coating times. Areas with inadequate coating thickness shall be thoroughly cleaned, and if necessary, abraded, and additional compatible coats shall be applied until they meet the required film thickness. Painting shall not be performed when the temperature of the surface is less than 3 oC above the dew point of the surrounding air or when the relative humidity of the air is greater than 85% unless local conditions dictate otherwise and SPDC is in agreement. In addition, paints shall not be applied under the following conditions: - When the surface temperature is greater than 40 oC (unless a higher temperature is agreed by the paint manufacturer) - When the air temperature is less than approximately 4 oC, (Depending on local conditions) - When there is the likelihood of an unfavourable change in weather conditions within two hours after painting. If condensation, rain, dust or other foreign materials contaminate the surface of a paint coating, which is not dry to the touch, the paint shall be removed, the surface re-cleaned and fresh paint applied in accordance to DEP 30.48.00.31. At our yard the following procedures shall be adhered to: a) Fill spray pot with zinc phosphate primer. b) Connect compressor to spray pot via hoses. c) Spray painter shall be fully geared in P.P.E, which must include nose mask, protective clothing, safety boots, hand gloves and eye goggles. d) Check spray nozzle and remove pigments with solvent. As specified by Paint Manufactures e) Prime the pipes as specified by Paint Manufactures (they are aligned during grit blasting). f) The spray painter shall prime the pipes one after the other to a d.f.t of 30 to 40 microns. The pipes shall then be rotated through 180 o to show unprimed surfaces, which shall then be primed one by one to a d.f.t of 30 to 40 microns.

At site, painting of all pipe spools, vessels and skids shall commence after the completion of all installation works. The recommended coating system shall be as per DEP 30.48.00.31-GEN, jan09 table 7 for new structures made of carbon steel and table 12 for maintenance coating system. Spray painters shall be fully kitted with their safety gears, which include nose masks, protective clothing, safety boots, hand gloves and eye goggles prior to painting operation.

Note: All surfaces shall be cleaned and dried before application of paint. Wet film thickness shall be determined using wet comb, while dry film thickness shall be determined using Electrometer. 6.4 INSPECTION AND TESTING Before painting activities commence, Natony Limited shall submit an inspection procedure report indicating inspections and tests to be conducted during preparation and application of the paint system for approval by SPDC. The following coating inspections and tests shall be applied. 6.4.1 SURFACE CONTAMINATION This test shall indicate the extent of substrate contamination as a result of iron, chlorides and dust as specified in ISO 8502-1, ISO 8502-2 and ISO 8502-3 respectively. 6.4.2 WET FILM THICKNESS, WFT Spot checks shall be carried out during the course of the painting operation to ensure that film thickness is being maintained. Spot checks shall be in accordance with ISO 2808, method No.7B. 6.4.2 DRY FILM THICKNESS, DFT Dry film thickness test shall be carried out in accordance with ISO 2808, method No.6 6.4.3 ADHESION The adhesion of the primer to the steel substrate and the inter coat adhesion of the subsequent coat(s) after curing shall be determined by the application of either a crosscut test in accordance with ISO 2409 or a pull-off test in accordance with ISO 4624. 6.5 INSPECTION RECORDS AND REPORTS SPDC shall have the right to inspect the paintwork at all stages of preparation and to reject any tool, instrument, material, equipment or work, which do not conform to specifications.
