1.0 SCOPE

This Commissioning Interface Coordination & Management Procedure defines

the roles and responsibilities for management and co-ordination of
commissioning interfaces for piping and electrical systems between EPC, Self
Perform Contractors and the Site Integration Commissioning Team. The
procedure provides for the exchange of Commissioning Interface Information
between the Site Integration Commissioning Team and the various Contractors
and defines methodology for such information exchange.

The scope of this procedure specifically excludes all instrumentation and control
system interfaces. Each EPC and Self Perform Contractor is responsible for
their own instrumentation and control system interface with the PAG in
accordance with interface procedure and DOR (PR-8550-0000-0005).

2.0 PURPOSE

The CSPC Nanhai project is a large, complex project. Portions of the project
have been awarded to different engineering and construction contractors and
these work packages are being executed in China as well as several other
locations around the world.

the project as well as executing some work packages on a self-perform basis.
BSF’s Site Integration Team (SIT) has responsibility for executing the
interconnecting facilities as well as managing and coordinating the interfaces
between the various EPC and Self Perform contractors.

This Commissioning Interface Coordination & Management Procedure describes

procedure for managing exchange of commissioning information between all
Contractors on the project as well as the roles and responsibilities for
management and co-ordination of commissioning interfaces.

3.0 DEFINITIONS

held to coordinate system need dates and to ensure alignment at the interface
points with respect to how the systems will be commissioned across the
interface. The coordination meetings will also be used to get agreement on the
combination of ISBL and OSBL systems for combined commissioning where
necessary and / or desirable.

The frequency of coordination meetings will increase as the start of

commissioning is approached and will continue throughout the commissioning
period to coordinate commissioning activities across the interfaces.

6.2 Lead Commissioning Contractor

6.2.1 Process Systems

Where it is jointly agreed that ISBL and OSBL systems should be combined and
commissioned together both the ISBL Contractor and the SICT will be involved.
Unless it is not practical to do so, the party from where the normal flow originates
will take the role as Lead Commissioning Contractor and will coordinate with the
other party / parties.

All parties shall provide copies the necessary documentation to the Lead
Commissioning Contractor who shall produce a combined System
Commissioning Manual covering the combined system. A Sign-Off Sheet listing
the various steps to be undertaken during the combined commissioning shall
also be prepared by the Lead Commissioning Contractor. The Sign-Off sheet
shall have provision for each of the parties involved to sign off against each
activity, which shall indicate that the signing party is in agreement that the Lead
Commissioning Contractor can proceed to the next stage in the commissioning
procedure.

A combined System Completion Manual shall not be produced. A separate

System Completion Manual shall be retained for each of the ISBL and OSBL
Systems. Copies of the Signoff Sheet shall be included into the System
Completion Manual for both the ISBL and the OSBL systems.

Each party shall be responsible for the commissioning and preparation of the
electrical equipment and instrumentation forming part of the commissioning
system that is within their own scope of supply before the OSBL and ISBL
systems are combined for joint commissioning.
