Meetings and co-ordination

A Kick-off meeting is organised to ensure that the team members are aware and understand the project concepts and the setting in which it is to be implemented. The MoM is to be recorded and a copy is stored with the project files. All identified deviations (either by customer or project-team) from contractual requirements and unsettled items are continuously summarised in an Open List during all phases and subject to further investigation and clarification internal and/or external with customer by regularly meetings or in writing. For that purpose during whole project stadium also regularly KVT internal Design Review Meetings are held under the leadership of the project manager with the participation of responsible engineers and various pertinent departments. At the Meetings is checked and discussed: fulfilment of all contractual requirements relevant to process/design/documentation applicable laws/standards/regulations plant equipment and plant arrangement internal and external interfaces deviations from requirements, corrective and preventive actions Quality Assurance

For all meetings Minutes of Meetings are to be recorded and a copy is to be stored with the project files.

Design Procedure
Design Overview

The project design is divided into the basic engineering and the detail engineering phase. After the basic engineering is completed and the project is sanctioned by the customer the detail engineering starts at the respective departments.

6.2

Basic Engineering Deliverables

During the basic engineering the following deliverables are submitted: Basis of Design, Process Flow Diagram, Heat and Mass balance Control, Operating, Construction, Commissioning and Maintenance Philosophies P&I D Cause & Effect Diagram, Alarm and Trip Schedule Plot Plan Equipment and Instrument Data Sheets

Systematic reviews of design and development are conducted according to chapter 6.5 Design Control Procedure.

6.3

Detail Engineering

During detail engineering the basic engineering documents are approved to confirm that they Can be verified against the relevant design and development data Provides required information for design, procurement of materials, equipment and / or services where appropriate Contains or references acceptance criteria where appropriate Specifies any characteristics essential for safe and proper function Meets all regulatory requirement including local requirements

6.4

Local Regulations

Local Regulations, Decrees and specifications including specific 3rd Party inspection requirements is incorporated into the specific Activity Plans. A summary of the requirements are given in the Seller Quality Requirements Document.

6.5
6.5.1

Design Control Procedures

Document Review

Design documents have to be reviewed and approved prior to issue to the customer. The review and approval has to be done by the responsible engineer according to Issue, Review and Approval. The responsible

14

engineer has to decide whether a review meeting is necessary or not. After approval of the document any design change has to be performed through a design change request (DCR).

6.5.2

Design Review Meeting

Design review meetings will take place at all critical stages of the project like the issue of the PFD, Heat & Massbalance, P&ID and the principle Layout. Additionally a review of the design is part of the meetings fixed every fortnight. The participants of a design review meeting are the responsible engineer, the process engineer and the project manager as a minimum.

6.5.3

Design Change Request

Following approval design data can only be changed or modified by a Design Change Request (DCR). Design changes may occur as a result of reviews or requests by Client or as a result of KVTs ongoing design development. Design Changes initiated by the Client have to be issued by the KVT responsible Engineer. A copy of the DCR shall be issued to the Client to close out the request. The design change request has to be issued through the design change (DesignChangeRequest.mdb) where the following information has to be detailed: DCR No. (sequential number) Project name and code TAG No. (when applicable) Description of desired design change Originator, date Cause of design change request Consequence of design change Impact on further documentation (when applicable) Estimated cost and time impact (when applicable) request database

After creating the design change request the relevant engineers and the project manager are automatically informed about the request. The responsible engineer for approval of the document has to review the request, may call a review meeting and at the end approves or refuses the request. The design change request has to be closed at the database by adding the following information Approval or refuse of design change (name, date) Execution of design change (name, date) when applicable.

A register listing all open or approved design change request shall be kept throughout the project. Printouts of design change request shall be stored within the documentation of the project. Customer will be kept informed of all design change requests and their status through the weekly report.

Procurement Control
Procurement Overview

KVT develops purchase order documents that meet all necessary commercial, technical, Quality, Local Regulation and 3rd Party Inspection Requirements. Purchase orders are only to be issued to Suppliers and Sub-contractors that have demonstrated their ability to provide products and / or services in accordance with project requirements. The assessment of vendors' capability takes place either prior to their being invited to bid for work or during the bid review process. This assessment includes a review of accreditation to ISO 9001:2000. The project team verifies that each Supplier's and Sub-contractor's plans, progress, arrangements and resources are appropriate to meeting specified requirements. The type and extent of control applied to each Supplier and Subcontractor is determined by the criticality of their product or service to project success and is reflected in the Seller Quality Requirement Plan.

7.2

Procurement Control

Purchase Orders and Sub-contracts include: A full description of product and/or service and documentation requirements Requirements for the approval of documents, products, services, procedures, processes and equipment. Requirements for the qualification of specific personnel such Product preservation requirements Statutory and regulatory certification requirements including local requirements QA/QC and HSE requirements Commercial conditions

7.3

Expediting

The nominated discipline Engineer is responsible for expediting, both desk and where appropriate field. The control of expediting activities is the responsibility of the Project Manager.

7.4

Third Party Inspection

The service of third party inspection will be utilised wherever necessary and as required by the applicable standards and regulations.

7.5

Verification of Products

The Project team ensures that guidance, document review, surveillance, audit, inspection and other activities required to ensure the procured product/services meet specified procurement requirements are carried out as requested by the customer. Supplier inspections will be undertaken by the project team as indicated in the inspection and test plan.

16

Any disposition of changes to purchase order requirements is documented and authorised by the appropriate personnel. Costumer is to be provided with the opportunity to also attend any inspection.

7.6

Sellers Progress Reporting and Surveillance

Vendors of proprietary and critical items have to issue periodically progress reports. Additionally these vendors are controlled with stage payments. The various payments are associated with progress of the product and have to be verified before release of the payment.

17

Construction

This section reports the name, location, quality certifications of the company that supply the construction works at site.

18

Design Data book

For each equipment designed by KVT a design data book will be installed. Within this data book all relevant design documents have to be stored. These design documents may include but are not limited to: Specification data sheet Purchase order Calculations Drawings Design review reports Inspection reports

Within the BEDP phase not all information are available. Instead of installing separate data books for all equipment, the calculations and data sheets can be stored at the responsible engineer in common.

9.1

Storage

The design data book has to be kept updated at any time of the project and will be, during the project, kept at the responsible engineer. After successfully installation of the project the data book will be stored, clearly marked with all relevant project information, within the document storage room of KVT.
