4.0 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION


4.1 Description
The pipeline system for the Trunkline SP XI - SPU Project comprises the following
components:
 8 inch tie-in from SP XI into the proposed SPU Trunkline Header Manifold and Pig
Reciever.
 8 inch tie-in from SP XI into the proposed SP XI Discharge Pump Header Manifold and
Pig Launcher.

PT. PERTAMINA EP – FIELD LIMAU
4.2 8 inch tie-in from SP XI into the proposed SPU Trunkline Header Manifold and Pig Reciever
The proposed line from SP XI into the proposed SPU Trunkline Header Manifold will
initially be used to supply crude oil to SPU. It is intended that as part of trunkline project will
be split into two sections. The first section will run from SP XI to SPU Header Manifold, and
will supply crude oil to SPU, replacing pipeline 6 inch existing for single line supply crude
oil from SP XI to SPU. The second section will run from trunkline to pig receiver in SPU,
and will transport liquids from SP XI to SPU for pipeline cleaning process.
The pipeline will be installed and tested by Contractor with a dummy flanged spool adjacent
in SPU Header Manifold and Pipeline in SPU Pig Reciever. The spool will be removed as
part of this Project to split the pipeline into two sections, and two points tie-ins will be
installed. One to tie-in the trunkline SP XI - SPU into the SPU header manifold section of
the pipeline, and the other to tie-in the Pig Reciever section in SPU.
The tie-ins shall be installed using the same line pipe. Pipeline wall thickness, coatings, and
concrete weightcoat will be the same as for existing pipeline. Spare 8 inch line pipe procured
via this project by COMPANY shall be responsible for pre-formed bends (if needed), flanges
and their fittings, and the associated coatings of the spools.
The tie-ins shall be routed to avoid possible conflicts with pipeline existing and pipeline of
Pig Reciever. The routing must also allow space for the proposed future pipeline tie-ins from
another gatehering stations.
The SP XI - SPU pipeline shall be isolated prior to the tie-in. A remote controlled
mechanical isolation plug or similar equipment approved by COMPANY shall be set into
position just past a removable spool.
After hydrotest and pre-commissioning, the liquids pipeline shall be left filled with treated
water ready for commissioning.
4.3 8 inch tie-in from SP XI into the proposed SP XI Pump Discharge Header Manifold and Pig
Launcher.
The proposed line from new trunkline into the proposed SP XI Pump Discharge Header
Manifold will initially be used to supply crude oil from SP XI. It is intended that as part of
trunkline project will be split into two sections. The first section will run from new trunkline
to SP XI Pump Discharge Header Manifold, and will supply crude oil from SP XI, replacing
pipeline 6 inch existing for single line supply crude oil from SP XI to SPU. The second
section will run from trunkline to Pig Launcher in SP XI, and will transport liquids from SP
XI to SPU for pipeline cleaning process.
The pipeline will be installed and tested by Contractor with a dummy flanged spool adjacent
in SP XI Pump Discharge Header Manifold and Pipeline in SP XI Pig Launcher. The spool
will be removed as part of this Project to split the pipeline into two sections, and two points
tie-ins will be installed. One to tie-in the trunkline SP XI - SPU into the SP XI Pump
Discharge Header Manifold section of the pipeline, and the other to tie-in the Pig Launcher
section in SP XI.
The tie-ins shall be installed using the same line pipe. Pipeline wall thickness, coatings, and
concrete weightcoat will be the same as for existing pipeline. Spare 8 inch line pipe procured
via this project by COMPANY shall be responsible for pre-formed bends (if needed), flanges
and their fittings, and the associated coatings of the spools.
The tie-ins shall be routed to avoid possible conflicts with pipeline existing and pipeline of
Pig Reciever. The routing must also allow space for the proposed future pipeline tie-ins from
another gatehering stations.

The SP XI - SPU pipeline shall be isolated prior to the tie-in. A remote controlled
mechanical isolation plug or similar equipment approved by COMPANY shall be set into
position just past a removable spool.
After hydrotest and pre-commissioning, the liquids pipeline shall be left filled with treated
water ready for commissioning.
4.4 Pipeline Tie-in
In the absence of specific information from the pipeline operator, the following assumptions
have been made:
1. The pipeline operator from CONTRACTOR is responsible for the pipeline section
from the downstream outlet flange.
2. The pipeline operator from CONTRACTOR will install the tie-in into the existing
pipeline. The valves may be fitted either at the tie-in point or at the downstream
flange.
3. The pipeline operator from CONTRACTOR will be responsible for all costs
associated with providing the tie-in process.
4. COMPANY will operate the proposed pipeline system within the range 100 to 300
psi.
5. Both pipelines shall be rated to the same Maximum Allowable Operating Pressure
(MAOP) of 1,000 psig. The pipeline operator from CONTRACTOR and
COMPANY will ensure that the pipeline pressure protection devices on both
pipelines are set so that the pipeline pressure cannot exceed 110% of the MAOP (ie
1100 psig).
