1.0 INTRODUCTION
The purpose of the document is to clearly outline the Project Quality System that is applicable to BOGT
Produce Water Inline Meter Installation (SPDC- Bonny Oil & Gas Terminal). It is expected that Step II
International Nigeria Limited with the aim of observing and achieving the highest quality standard for
the work to be comparable with any such job anywhere in the world. To achieve this aim, Step II
International Nigeria Limited will, in line with standard quality reference codes and specifications design,
propose and specify the quality procedures to be applied in all the phases of the job, for approval by the
client (SPDC). In order to constantly apply the procedures without deviation, SPDC will through its
representatives constantly monitor the job execution for strict adherence. This Project Quality Plan is
therefore specifically made for the project under reference as the underlying document.
In summary, it:
(i) Provides the PE's quality index for the execution of the Project and to be used by all his
representatives.
(ii) Provides guide for us as a Company to work towards the quality requirement of the project.
(iii) Puts together necessary quality aspects that are very important for the delivery of the project.
(iv) Provides, together with the welding procedure specifications and other quality codes, guidance
for achieving sound welds productions.

This, together with line profile as will be reflected in the as-built, will form the configuration of the line.
All documents/records emanating from the project shall be configured in accordance with Step II
International Nigeria Limited Procedures.

18.0 COMMISSIONING
The commissioning of the project shall take place after the mechanical completion and pre-
commissioning is completed. Step II International Nigeria Limited Quality Assurance Engineer shall
ensure that non-conformance items that were identified during the mechanical completion and pre-
commissioning are properly close-out and also ensure proper audit of project as regards quality test
records. Once it is ascertained that the project execution meets SPDC specification, the project will be
handed over to SPDC.

19.0 PAINTING
Only prescribed leak proof paints without contamination shall be used. All surfaces to be painted must
be cleaned properly before applying the primer and other coats. The primer shall be zinc rich silicate.
The DFT of each coat shall be measured and recorded accordingly.

20.0 NONCONFORMANCES
All processes, materials, equipment must conform to applicable standard in the industry. Any material
or equipment that does not conform shall be identified and rejected on grounds of non-conformance.
Such processes shall only be allowed after they have been corrected and/or replaced. Step II

Manpower and equipment deployed to site shall be the index of this measurement. Therefore, it is
required that only properly certified and pre-mobbed equipment with a healthy workforce can make
us achieve our goal. Records of broken-down equipment and/or sick persons, which may adversely
affect the man hour and production, shall be properly kept.
22.0 TRAINING AND COMPETENCY
Step II International Nigeria Limited Technical Services Ltd has a staff training program to ensure that
adequate training of staff taking part in activities liable to affect the quality of the products and services
takes precedence. These training measures cover those related to professional qualification, special
qualifications required for certain functions or jobs, personnel management based on current and
future development.

23.0 INTERNAL AUDIT SCHEDULE

An audit of the implementation and effectiveness of this quality plan shall be verified by internal audit
of the system during procurement, installation and construction processes. Audit procedure shall be
carried out by appropriately trained personnel who are not directly responsible for the area being
audited. Audits shall be carried out in accordance with document audit procedure and/or checklist
which are essential items to be investigated. Each deficiency found during the audits shall be addressed
by means of corrective action required. Audit shall include an evaluation of:
