1 Scope
This procedure defines a special type of Saudi Aramco engineering drawing and
establishes instructions for the preparation and use of these drawings, together with the
responsibilities of those associated with them.

3 Instructions
3.1 Definition and Purpose
Saudi Aramco Standard Drawings, referred herein as Standard Drawings, are
prepared engineering drawings, approved by the concerned Saudi Aramco
Department. They provide uniformity in design, procurement, fabrication and
installation of materials and equipment in Company facilities.
Standard Drawings are mandatory to the extent indicated by specific Saudi
Aramco Engineering Standards (SAESs) and Saudi Aramco Materials System
Specifications (SAMSSs). Nonetheless, in line with good drafting practice, the
content and details of Standard Drawings shall be compatible with and reflect
the mandatory requirements of the SAESs and SAMSSs. References to SAESs
or SAMSSs are not required, but may be included on Standard Drawings to
assist drawing users.
Engineers and design contractors shall incorporate appropriate Standard
Drawings into project drawing packages for the construction of new facilities, or
the modification of existing facilities. Individuals specifying material and
equipment shall attach appropriate Standard Drawings to requisitions and
purchase orders. Use of these drawings produce a number of cost-effective
benefits, including reducing drafting time and effort, increasing the use of
commonly available materials, and assisting construction contractors and
inspectors that handle many similar installations.

3.2 Preparation and Revision
The preparation and revision of Standard Drawings will follow the normal
production requirements contained in the Saudi Aramco Engineering Standard
SAES-A-202, and will be administered by the Drawing Management Unit,
Engineering Knowledge & Resources Division (EK&RD).
3.2.1 Titles and Title Blocks
Select a Standard Drawing title to clearly indicate the subject of the
drawing and how to interpret its contents (for example, "Installation of
Jack Screws for Flanged Joints"). Do not abbreviate words in the title,
unless there is a real shortage of space, and only then if the abbreviation
will not be misunderstood. Enter "Standard Drawing" on the left hand
side of the fourth line in the title block. If the Standard Drawing has
been metricated, enter "Metric" on the right hand side of the fourth line.
Just above the title block, put the words "Drawing Responsibility:"
followed by the name of the appropriate Standards Committee.
3.2.2 Drawing Number
For identification purposes, all Standard Drawings are assigned Plant
Number 990. The first three (3) digits of the six (6) digit Standard
Drawing identification number will be "036", while the remaining
numbers will be unique.
3.2.3 Drawing Index
Assign the index of every Standard Drawing following the information
contained on Standard Drawing AE-036411 Sheet 001, "Drawing and
Equipment Index Key".
3.2.4 List of Materials
Include on all Standard Drawings that contain material, a list of the
material showing SAMS numbers for stock items. If more space is
needed, add separate sheets to the Standard Drawing to accommodate the
material list.
3.3 Distribution
The distribution of Standard Drawings will follow the normal production
requirements contained in the Saudi Aramco Engineering Standard
SAES-A-202, and will also be administered by EK&RD/DMU.
3.3.1 Drawing Management System (PlantDoc)

Standard Drawings are maintained in electronic (CADD) format and
listed under Plant 990 and archived under the same plant file by Drawing
Management Unit, Engineering Knowledge & Resources Division in
Dhahran. Authorized users can browse the drawings from the Drawing
Management System (PlantDoc), and Intranet Site of EK&RD Home
Page under "Drawings On-line" (WEB-QVP). vThis system provides on-
line access to Standard Drawings, enabling users to find, view, and print
them. The system data is periodically updated to include all latest
approved drawings.
3.3.2 DeskTop Standards System
The DeskTop Standards System is an approved source of information for
Standard Drawings. Numerical and alphabetical lists of Standard
Drawings are included, together with an Alert file identifying approved
revisions. These files are updated periodically and can be accessed
through the Intranet Site of ES Home Page under "Engineering
Standards".
A review of the Alert file will enable users to know the latest revision
level and date of approved Standard Drawings.
4 Responsibilities
4.1 Standard Drawing Proponents
The Managers of the Consulting Services, Loss Prevention, and Process &
Control Systems Departments are the proponents for the Standard Drawings
assigned to their respective Standards Committees, and will exercise approval
authority for their drawings. EK&RD/DMU is also responsible for Company-
wide distribution of Standard Drawings through DeskTop Standards Program.
4.2 Standards Committee Chairmen
Each Standards Committee Chairman is responsible for periodically reviewing,
updating or developing new Standard Drawings, and requesting the cancellation
of obsolete Standard Drawings that are no longer needed. They shall ensure
that:
the details and contents of all Standard Drawings correctly communicate the
mandatory requirements of SAESs and SAMSSs and clearly distinguishing
them from the non mandatory portions of the drawings;
stock item numbers shown are still available from SAMS, and are the most
cost-effective selection based on the service life and environment;

all proposed revisions or new issues are thoroughly reviewed with other
organizations affected by the drawing contents;
all Standard Drawings are approved by their Manager, prior to issuing for
use; and
all critical supporting documentation, data, and calculations are forwarded to
the Standards Coordinator for retention in historical files.
4.3 Standard Coordination Unit, EK&RD
The Standard Coordination Unit will:
ensure that accurate records are maintained on the status of all approved
revisions to Standard Drawings, and correctly reported on the DeskTop
Standards Alert files;
obtain electronic images of approved Standard Drawings to include with
distribution of the DeskTop Standards Program;
retain in historical files, all critical supporting documentation, data, and
calculations received from Standards Committee Chairmen, and
coordinate preparation, revision and cancellation of Standard Drawings.
4.4 Drawing Management Unit, EK&RD
The Drawing Management Unit is responsible for:
the control, storage, and retrieval of Standard Drawings following the
requirements of the Saudi Aramco Engineering Standard SAES-A-202;
securing approved electronic file of Standard Drawings and loading them
into the Intranet Site "WEB QVP" and PlantDoc; and
incorporate revisions to existing ones & generate new Standard Drawings.
4.5 Users of Standard Drawings
Project Management, Engineering, and Maintenance organizations and other
users are responsible for incorporating Standard Drawings into the design,
procurement, and construction of new and modification of existing facilities.
Include prints of Standard Drawings in project design packages. To eliminate
errors between different versions of a Standard Drawing, indicate both the
drawing number and its revision number in the other project documents.
