develop full details of procedures for pre-commissioning, commissioning and testing of the New
Substation.
____________________________________
CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for immediate replacement of any defective

component/equipment identified during pre-commissioning, commissioning and testing without
any cost to PETROTRIN. PETROTRIN reserves the right to reject defective equipment
identified during this phase.
All testing, pre-commissioning, commissioning and plant start-up shall be done in accordance
with Quality Specifications QPM – 1 / 10.0, QPM – 1 / 10.2 and QPM – 1 / 10.3, and Quality
Procedure QDM-2/9.0, Appendix 1.
8.2.2 Definitions
1. Mechanical Completion
The term "Mechanical Completion" shall mean completion of construction and installation of the
Unit, save for minor exceptions acceptable to PETROTRIN which do not interfere with safe
commissioning, start-up and operation of the Unit, (e.g. non-critical insulation, painting,
landscaping). Mechanical completion is attained when the Unit or any part thereof (individual
systems) has been erected in accordance with the applicable drawings and specifications, and has
mechanical, structural, instrument/control and electrical integrity demonstrated by
CONTRACTOR and is ready for Commissioning and Start-up. Mechanical Completion shall be
demonstrated by submission of the System Turnover Packages. The Pre- commissioning and
Mechanical Completion Checklist contained in PETROTRIN Standard Specification G-9 shall
be used in the allocation of responsibilities to achieve Mechanical Completion and defines the
minimum requirements expected of CONTRACTOR.
Refer to Quality Procedure Manual, QDM 2, Appendix 1.
2. Pre-commissioning
Pre-commissioning activities and responsibilities are defined in the Pre-commissioning and
Mechanical Completion Checklist contained in PETROTRIN Standard Specification G-9. (e.g.
insulation and grounding system tests, operational testing of equipment, current injection testing,
etc.).
3. Commissioning
Commissioning activities are those required after pre-commissioning to bring the Unit or parts of
the Unit into operation.
8.2.3 Systems Turnover
1. Introduction
The turnover of the Unit or a relevant part indicates that CONTRACTOR has carried out the
work in accordance with the requirements of the Contract. The fact that Mechanical Completion
of the Unit has been achieved does not necessarily mean that CONTRACTOR has fulfilled all
contractual obligations.
CONTRACTOR shall work toward early definition of turnover systems so that construction
planning and scheduling can be based on turnover sequence. CONTRACTOR shall define the
operating systems for turnover in accordance with specifications contained herein, Quality
Specification QPM – 1 / 10.3, (Quality Specification Manual QPM – 1), and after consultation
____________________________________
with PETROTRIN. All the systems shall be collectively complete for plant operation. The
systems shall be marked on drawings, where possible, using different highlighter colours. A
section of the drawing for each system shall be prepared/extracted to be used for preparation of
other pieces of System Turnover Package.
The final version of the systems defined by CONTRACTOR is subject to PETROTRIN’s
approval. PETROTRIN reserves the right to redefine systems as required by the plant processes.
When CONTRACTOR considers that the Unit or any System(s) is ready for turnover,
CONTRACTOR shall prepare System Turnover Package(s) for PETROTRIN to review and
comment. Only when PETROTRIN considers System Turnover can take place, a Certificate of
Acceptance shall be signed by PETROTRIN.
2. Presentation of the System Turnover Package

CONTRACTOR shall turnover the Unit by the systems defined above.
For each system CONTRACTOR shall present the information in letter size three- (3) ring
binders in addition to electronic format and shall contain as a minimum the following
information:
a) A copy of the extract of the drawing for that turnover system
b) A list of all equipment and components included in that system
c) Manuals and other pertinent technical information for all equipment and components.
d) Valid Calibration Certificates for all instruments used in the testing and
inspections/examinations.
e) Record of Electrical checks, Test and Inspections/Examinations.
f) Record of Civil checks, Tests and Inspections/Examinations.
g) Punch list of outstanding items. All punch list items shall be assigned a category to reflect the
importance of the item. A minimum of three (3) categories shall be used.
h) Any other documents required by the relevant codes and standards or statuary laws to be
stored.
i) Other relevant document requested by PETROTRIN.
8.2.4 Pre-commissioning
Pre-commissioning activities are separate on-going functions, which may or may not be
completed before Mechanical Completion is achieved. Continuing pre-commissioning activities
for any mechanically completed system shall not be allowed to interfere with construction work
in other mechanically incomplete systems.
CONTRACTOR shall provide PETROTRIN with a system handover schedule and an
organization chart to guide communication and responsibilities during the pre-commissioning
and start-up phases of the project.
CONTRACTOR shall conduct pre-commissioning activities in accordance with PETROTRIN
Standard Specification G-9. CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the supply of all pre-
commissioning materials e.g. cleaning agents, lubricants, seal oil, coolants etc.
CONTRACTOR shall load/charge equipment as outlined in Licensor/Vendor procedures (e.g. oil
systems, etc).
____________________________________
Functional testing of all equipment shall be carried out on completion of construction and
immediately prior to plant start-up and shall be supervised, verified and accepted by
PETROTRIN. On completion of pre-commissioning activities by CONTRACTOR, all field
instrumentation, control, emergency shutdown and safety systems shall be in place, with all loop
and acceptance checks and all ‘punch list’ work items completed and with all equipment fully
operational and ready for immediate start-up.
8.2.5 Commissioning/Start-Up
Final detailed commissioning schedules and procedures shall be provided to PETROTRIN two
(2) weeks before commissioning works are to begin. This will allow for the smooth transfer of
construction personnel to the Unit commissioning team.
After Mechanical Completion, PETROTRIN shall assume responsibility for care, custody and
control of the completed portion, and shall direct all subsequent work. CONTRACTOR shall
supply commissioning/start-up crew on a 24-hour basis to perform and/or support this post-
Mechanical Completion work. These crews shall comprise supervisory personnel knowledgeable
in sub-station operations as well as skilled labour (mechanical, electrical, instrument etc).
Commissioning activities shall be performed by CONTRACTOR’s personnel with assistance of
PETROTRIN. Although assisted by PETROTRIN's personnel, the responsibility for completing
the activities to PETROTRIN's satisfaction remains the CONTRACTOR's.
Pre-commissioning, commissioning, testing and start-up activities shall be performed according
to the drawings, Manufacturer’s instructions and specified standards and codes.
CONTRACTOR shall provide all consumable type spares required for commissioning and start-
up, and all replacement spares arising out of start-up and commissioning of equipment and initial
equipment operation.
Prior to energizing and commissioning, perform all tests and checkout of equipment and cable in
accordance with the specifications referenced herein.
All tie-ins or connections to existing items shall be coordinated with PETROTRIN
Representative. CONTRACTOR shall provide all requisite materials to facilitate tie-ins.
PETROTRIN shall take the lead in this activity. CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for
providing specific work breakdown structure for all tie-ins at least three (3) days in advance of
the tie-ins.
Additionally, CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the following:
a. Preparation of a comprehensive report on all activities carried out in this phase of the Work,
not later than two weeks after unit start-up.
b. Correction/repair of defects in workmanship or materials/equipment deemed by PETROTRIN
to be CONTRACTOR's responsibility. CONTRACTOR shall act expeditiously to remedy such
defects. CONTRACTOR is advised that PETROTRIN remedies for default in this area shall be
vigorously pursued.
CONTRACTOR shall meet with PETROTRIN regularly and frequently (daily if required or
requested) to discuss targets, obstacles, solutions, progress, HSE issues, etc.
