Project : Ichthys FPSO (Australia) MEG Regeneration Package
Client : INPEX
-When MRP handed over from Technip to DSME, INPEX requested an Engineer who conversant with MRP to be assigned to Korea to support DSME engineering team.
-In addition of SOW in Malaysia, I have also contributed in RI (Receiving Inspection) and Installation.
-To ensure smooth installation of equipment to deck, I communicated installation standard with vendors regarding scope of supply, welding size, design of sliding saddle, location of slot holes etc.
-Example
Original stools’ height for Reclamation Centrifuge was 200 mm, bottom nozzles extruded pass through the deck from level 2 to level 1, tie-in was planned to be done at level 1. However, this is highlighted by Material Handling team to me that there is no space for scaffolding at level 1, after discuss with Structural team and Operation, I have requested vendor to change stools’ height to 500 mm and add jacking pad beneath the skid.
-I also compared coordination (x, y, z), tag number and dimension of tie-in points in DSME’s P&IDs vs vendor’s P&IDs and General Arrangement, this is crucial for connection from equipment to FPSO pipelines.
-Example
Due to space constrain, Vacuum Pump Skids are limited to 3 x 4 m, therefore. location of equipment within the skid such as heat exchanger, scrubber, instrument, fittings are keep on changing throughout the project. At the end, I found out that tie-in points’ coordination provided by vendor are totally mismatch with their GA. I requested 3D Model from vendor and finally solved this issue before sending the tie-in points detail to piping layout
-Example
For all packages, instruments are under vendor’s scope of supply. I have made a table comparison of alarm and trip set points from 3 vendor’s deliverables: Trip and alarm list, Instrument Index and P&ID. This table are presented clearly in excel sheet to main vendor (APS, Norway) the numerous confusions of unit, value, instrument’s tag number and even location. By using my table, APS coordinated with her sub-vendor, like Busch this mistake rectified and helped ICSS team a lot.
-After RI by inspectors, a RI punch list with equipment’s non-compliances will be sent to me to deal with vendor. As MRP involved quite a numbers of project specifications, therefore, some of the non-compliances are open to argue. My task here is to add the clause and project specification number in Carry Over Work (COW) list, for execution by vendor at no cost. This helped my clients to save a huge amount of cost.
-Example
1.Inspector noticed that Flowserve did not supply isolation ball valves at the MEG Recycle Pump casing drain nozzles. However, they insist this is not their scope of supply. I highlighted to them that this is mentioned in project specification, which is attached together with MR as part of PO. They finally agreed to supply and install ball valve at site as detailed in COW.
2.Reclamation centrifuge’s vendor supplied integral block and bleed valves as isolation valve from piping to instrument, however, IDBB is prohibited in dirty service according to piping spec, and therefore they are replaced by mono block and bleed valves by vendor as free items.
3.Service tubes are prohibited to touch with instrument cable to avoid abrasion due to vibration. However, this is inevitable due to area availability, after discussed with client, we finally agreed to allow them to add rubber cushion in between.
-As I am the only one Mechanical delegate from Technip to DSME while others have been demob, I was not only dealing with MRP but also enquiries from DSME team regarding others packages, and follow up document originated by Technip, such as Master Equipment List.
-ExAmple
I have attended Topsides SIL meeting with clients and ERM, support by sharing info or technical knowledge when Mechanical issues come up, such as material and design temperature for Tote tank, H2S content in Vacuum Pump Scrubber and HP Flare.
