corrosion on a monthly basis.

The sheaves shall be treated with BP Energrease LS-EP2 or equivalent on a monthly
basis.

The wire shall be treated with Shell Malleus Fluid C or equivalent on a monthly basis.

Main Bearing Greasing
Special attention should be given to maintenance of the main bearing, as repair or
replacement is a major operation.

The suppliers recommended grease should always be used and should never be
mixed with other brands, unless approved by BES. The buoy should be rotated 40
degrees during the greasing operation. If, during a routine maintenance inspection of
the grease system, defective parts are found, they are to be replaced immediately.

5. CAUTION
To avoid contamination or water ingress, fresh grease must be stored in an on-shore
warehouse in a closed container. Under no circumstances should the grease be stored
on the SPM system.
The tension in the bearing stud bolts is to be checked annually in accordance with the
procedure outlined in SPM Suppliers Operating manual. If the inspection shows that
any bolt is tensioned to less than 70% of the specified pre-load all bolts are to be
checked.

Re-tensioned and a further inspection made after six months. If no further loss of pre-
load is shown at this inspection, yearly inspections may be reinstated.

Immediately after installation, all bolts should be checked and, if necessary, re-
tensioned. A subsequent inspection of at least three equally spaced inner and outer

bearing ringbolts is to be undertaken after six months of operation. If no loss of pre-
load has occurred, the yearly inspection routine may be initiated.

To compensate for settling phenomena, it is necessary to inspect and re-tighten the
bolts using the same bolt tensioner at the initial assembly. This inspection is to be
undertaken no later than 4 weeks after the initial tensioning.

6. WARNING
When welding on the SPM buoy is required ensure that NO current passes through the
main bearing. Four equally spaced earthing cables shall be used to connect the
rotating the geostatic part during welding. The buoy body shall be in the locked
position.
The cables must be connected prior to the commencement of welding.

The seals are of vital importance as it prevents water and dirt from entering the main
bearing. The seal must be checked regularly and very carefully to avoid possible
problems with the main bearing at a later stage.

Grease Sampling

References are also made to the SPM maintenance and operation manual

On a yearly basis, grease sample should be taken from the main bearing with the help
of required sample collection tools and sent for analysis, with a reference sample of
clean, new grease.

A total of twelve grease sampling ports are provided on the buoy six on the upper
bearing ring and six on the lower bearing ring. The points are coded as UBGS and
LBGS.

An analysis of extruded grease is an effective method of monitoring the condition of
the bearing and rollers, the presence of ferrous metals and other particles in the used
grease indicating that the wear may be uneven and remedial action required. The
results from the grease analysis shall be entered into the maintenance records.

Bearing degradation is dependent upon a variety of factors, including the number of
rotations, axial wear, and the actual site conditions.

It is vital to ensure that the grease samples are not contaminated in any way by dirt,
seawater, or foreign particles. Contamination of samples will, inevitably, produce
spurious analysis results. Care should be taken when installing a new sample tube to

Grease : BP Energrease LS-EP-2
Quantity : 70 grams/greasing point.

Rotate the buoy 40 degrees during the greasing operation. One leak detector plug is
located on the fixed forged flange. Minor leakage through the leak channel may occur
during pumping of product through the swivel. Dismantling of the swivel may be
required if the product fluid is found to be leaking during inspection. The swivel seals
may be replaced on-site, if the swivel unit is first dismantled. To replace the seals, it
is necessary to disconnect the rotating part of the swivel and raise it to obtain the
necessary clearance to reach the seal grooves. Should a seal change be required, it will
be necessary to shut down the product system, closing the turret valves and ensuring
that the system is completely flushed, vented, and certified free of hydrocarbons. The
piping may be vented through the vent plugs on top of the buoy piping. Swivel seal
replacement should be executed following an approved procedure and should be
witnessed by a BES specialist.

All inspection results are to be documented and video results of visual surveys
maintained. For normal Class surveys, the inspections are to be witnessed or
otherwise approved by the Surveyor.

Damage found is to be repaired, and if considered critical, the damaged section is to
be replaced before any service operation is undertaken. Insignificant damage is to be
justified as such to the satisfaction of the Surveyor. Repair to significant carcass
damage is possible, but must be undertaken on the surface with special tools. In the
event of significant damage, the hose should be replaced and the damaged hose
inspected to determine if repair is viable. Minor repairs can be undertaken in situ.
The Classification Society is to be copied with records of all minor repairs.

Configuration of the under buoy hoses shall be carried out every Month and the
results shall be plotted on a graph sheet/CAD with all the relevant datas as specified
by the Engineer in charge. Any discrepancies shall be rectified by adjusting the
position of floats/adding new floats. Adjustments shall be verified again to ensure the
required configuration.

Inspection and Testing of Hoses on Shore

The requirement for onshore inspection and testing of hoses varies according to
location, use and the product carried by the string. In accordance with the current
OCIMF guidelines, it is recommended that individual operators establish a statistical
database of wear, damage and failure frequency rates by comprehensive testing,
including burst testing. Such tests will determine the appropriate retirement criteria
and an on-shore testing cycle. Until a database has been established, the hoses should
be brought on shore for inspection and testing to the following schedule.

Type of hose Initial test interval
Floating 1 3 Years
Submarine 1 3 Years
Tanker Rail 6 Months to 1 Year
First off the Buoy 6 Months to 1 Year

In accordance with OCIMF guidelines, the following hose areas should be inspected
on shore:
Hose covers to be cleaned and checked for damage. Where damage has occurred,
the extent should be determined and, if minor, repaired. If damage is extensive,
hoses should be retired.
Hoses to be checked for distortions, bulges or longitudinal ridges indicating a
damaged carcass. If apparent, damaged areas should be marked and examined
under pressure. Hoses with leaking tubes or ruptured reinforcements should be
retired.

All arrangements and activities necessary for testing hoses On-shore and Off-shore
shall be contractors responsibility. New hoses/bolts/nuts/gaskets/FADs are in the
scope of owner and all other materials required for testing are in the scope of
contractor.

Testing of Retired Hoses
Destruction testing of retired hoses should be given consideration. These tests, either
pressure bursting or sectioning will assist in determining hose service life and the
required frequency of onshore testing or replacement. Double carcass hoses may be
burst to test the effectiveness of the secondary carcass containment and the
effectiveness of the primary carcass leak detection system.

Retirement decisions are often subjective. Experienced inspection personnel, good
record keeping and selective hose burst testing will help in the making decision
process.
Excessive cover and or flotation damage.
Excessive fitting corrosion.
Exposed helical wire.
Fluid leaking from cover/fitting interface.
Permanent bore deformation e.g. kink, blister or bulges.
Excessive elongation during pressure test.
Lining collapse, blister or fluid drawback at fitting nipple end during vacuum
test.
Activated secondary carcass of double carcass hose.
