PART 2: THE PROJECT SCOPE STATEMENT

SCOPE DESCRIPTION (OVERVIEW OF PRODUCT SCOPE AND PROJECT SCOPE):

For maintaining production from an oilfield, it is vital to check and test every piece of process facility in a routine duration and do routine, emergency and overhaul maintenance and repair in AHWAZ oilfield. According to the technical Inspection and HSE Department reports there are some deficiencies and pitting appears on the wall of the oil storage tank created by the chemical reaction between water and hydrogen sulfide (every oil and gas well produce water and H2S beside oil and gas and amount these chemicals are part of field inherent characteristic). Preventive measure and coating against corrosion and some repairs are necessary according to the API 650 standard.

The company decided to choose a contractor to do this maintenance and repair project. When the contractor is selected, they will join the project owner maintenance department consisting of three sub departments (Mechanical, Power, instrument) and will do their daily activities under direct supervision of these department. Two shell plates in circle/course 4 and 3 shell plates in circle/course 5 need to be changed. Internal and external surface should be paint after repair.

For doing this project it is necessary to do a lot of safety considerations environmental impacts. the tank should separate from other in-process facilities, doing repairs, and back into service and restore safely.

The selected contractor should provide all engineering, labor, equipment, and materials which are necessary to decommission, cleaning, repairing, restoring, and commissioning of an oil storage tank at an anonymous oil field. All materials, labor, equipment like shell plates, structure, gaskets, pipes, pumps, crane service, electrical and everything necessary for a safe job, should be provided by the contractor. All sludge discharged from the tank should deliver to authorized environmental restoration sites. All solid waste material should transfer to authorized/Legal landfills. The tank is to be fully operational when completed. During this project 2 shell plates in circle 4 and three shell plates in circle 5 of tank will cut, remove, assemble a new shell plate, and weld.

CONSTRAINTS:

Technical inspection procedures may need other unseen consideration and materials. When the tank opens, it is possible that repair will extend because of corrosion rate. HSE procedure may create delay in some activities. Working in a high safety risk packed area is a big constraint.

INCLUSIONS/EXCLUSIONS:

All equipment including mechanical, instrumentation, electrical devices and safety devices should be in service. All scaffolds should remove from dike wall. Technical inspection, Operation and HSE should sign termination/Box up form. All blind flanges should remove and All valve should be operable according to operating manual and PFD and PID diagrams.

ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA:

The oil storage tank must be fully operational and HSE and technical inspection departments signed commissioning and box up forms. All instrumentation, mechanical and electrical equipment should work properly after commissioning phase. Commissioning and decommissioning must perform according to standard operating procedures. The contractor has to prepare all safety devices and clothing for their employees. The plant must shut down and restart according to shutdown permit. The cost must not exceed 25 % or budget baseline.+

PART 3: THE WBS

We create a WBS diagram for the project. We use the Process Facility ID, TK 1003, which can be found in process flow diagram of process facility as starting letter. This will help for future reference and when dealing with a big overhaul project which consists of many processing facilities and many subprojects which should merge in a master project. The created WBS diagram is big (A3 paper size), so we attached a pdf file to our exercise.

Creating Description of the treaty booklet

All required maintenance, Repairs and testing should provide with the exact number of required resources and jobs. All documentation and work orders from another department like Operation, HSE, Process departments involved in this booklet.

Contractor Selection

Legal and Contractor Dept will determine the contractor and will create the final legal contract. It is out of oilfield responsibility (milestone).

Contractor workshop establishment

After the contractor selected, HSE and the maintenance department are responsible to determine a safe place for a contractor to establish their workshop inside the process area.

Getting Shutdown permit from the relevant office

Shout Down permit will issue by head office.

Shut down and discharge.

The tank oil must be drained as much as possible then it will S/D.

Decommissioning According to SOP

The tank should be separate from other process facilities and all inlets and outlets should close(blind).

Scaffolding

To access, roof and wall outer area of the tank should scaffold according to safe scaffold manual.

Grit Blasting

All inner surface (Roof, Wall, Floor) and outer area (Wall) should grit blasted, and all paints and corrosion coatings should be lifted and cleaned to be ready for inspection and measuring.

Inspection by technical inspection team

Technical inspection department will inspect all cleaned surfaces and will issue repair, cutting, welding, assembling, coating, and painting procedures.

Repair according to technical inspection painting procedure

All corroded shell plates will remove and replace with a new one.

Painting according to technical inspection painting procedure

All grit blasted, inspected, and repaired surfaces should coated and painted according to technical inspection department procedures

Commissioning according to SOP

The tank will back in service safely.

Startup / Normal Operation

The operation will normal after all instruments/electrical/firefighting and operational equipment are back into service.
