1.0 SCOPE .

This Standard describes the Packing, Marking and documentation requirements' for the shipment of materials and equipment to KOC's facilities in Kuwait.

2.0 GENERAUAPPLICATION,

This Standard describes the minimum requirements, and adherence to the Standard in no way absolves or relieves the Contractor, Vendor or Supplier of any responsibility or obligation to provide all necessary documentation, correctly pack and mark all equipment and materials, obtain customs clearance and import same into Kuwait and deliver them to the KOC facility

Documentation, packing and marking requirements shall fully comply with all relevant contractual requirements specified in the Scope of Work and Technical Specification of the Contract or Purchase Agreement

3.0 REFERENCE CODES & STANDARDS

Where conflicts exist between this standard and other Drawings, standards, codes and speCifications, the most stringent shall be applied.

Any exceptions or deviations from this Standard, along with their merits and justifications, shall be brought to the attention of KOC's Controlling Department for their review, consideration and amendment by Standards Division (if required).

Other Reference Documents:

KOC-G-007 KOC Standard for Basic Design Data

ISO 780 Packaging, Pictorial Marking for Handling of Goods

4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

~H·G004R1

Packing. marking and protection of the documentation which accompanies materials and equipment shall in all respects be suitable for shipment from the point of origin to the KOC faCility.

The environment of Kuwait, is severe on all equipment and, must be considered carefully before design and procurement of plant and equipment. It must be assumed "that, ,unless otherwise specified, equipment may be subjected to sand and fine particle dust storms,,' sand 'laden winds, thunderstorms, heavy rain, chemical contaminants, and extreme temperatures.

All documentation, packing and marking shall be suitable for storage at a desert location under high ambient temperatures and humidity until required to meet the planned storage or construction schedule. Ambient temperature can range from -3°C to 55°C under sun' shade. Refer to KOC-G-007 for more environmental data.


Humidity can pose a serious problem with long periods of relative humidity levels of 100% being part of the normal weather pattern.

5.0 PACKAGING

5.1 General

5.1.1 The following guidelines are designed to facilitate preservation, safe amval, and expeditious movement of material being purchased, from the point of origin to the Facility. Any charges incurred due to the failure of the Contractor or Supplier to comply with these instructions shall be for his account. The method of packing and the packaging materials shall be suitable to protect purchased items against the hazards associated with handling and storage conditions encountered in transit and the environmental conditions at the Site of the KOC facility.

5.1.2 A "Shipping Unit" is defined as one of the following:

~rton,cratel Ilox, barrel, .. l<eg, .cirum, tower, tank, pipe, bar, steel, pallet, bundle, container or skid.

5.2.4 Particular care shall be taken to protect and preserve sensitive items such as instruments, control panels, hydrodynamic bearings, mechanical seals. etc.

5.2.5 General and specific preservation requirements are defined in Appendix 1 of this Standard.

5.2.6 In all instances (with the exception of various size pipe), items shall be nested or packed to reduce volume as much a~ possible. Waste space within a shipping unit is a source of weakness. Fragile items shall be wrapped in crepe-cellulose wadding or some equally efficient cushioning material and floated in excelsior.

5.3 Packing SpeCification

~H-G004R1

The manner in which a commodity is packed governs to a great extent its condition on arrival at a destination. This Standard covers the Company's

Wooden closures shall be metal cross-braced and securely bolted or clamped on. The cover and gasket size shall match the flange outside diameter (00). Gaskets shall be 1/8-in.- minimum, thick red rubber or neoprene. The cover thickness and bolting size and number of bolts used shall be such that the cover effectively seals the flanged opening. The use of plastic snap-on covers is acceptable on 4-in. and smaller openings except for equipment which will be air or nitrogen pressurized during shipment and storage.

All threaded connections such as vents, drains, conduit and piping connections shall be capped or plugged with metal or plastic materials after application of type A rust preventative.

Penetrations of rotating or reciprocating parts through equipment case shall be sealed' with oil/waterproof tape. Exposed finished surfaces such as shafts, which are to mate with other equipment during job site assembly, shall be additionally protected with wood, plastic or soft metal.

All engaged and exposed threads, especially those used for flange protection, shall be coated with a grease-based rust preventative, type C. The rust· preventative shall be replaced after each loosening bolt-up to ensure adequate protection.


1.11 A list of the specific rust preventatives used to protect the equipment shall be • securely attached. to or enclosed in the shipping unit. This list, additional to the

equipment designation tag, shall include internal as welt aa .external rust preventatives, giving tne Approved Manufacturer and type number and the locations where each has been applied.

1.. 12 Included in the above list shall be any special. instructions deemed necessary by the Approved Manufacturer for the removal or replacement of any rust preventatives, together with any special precautions to be taken in the care of its equipment during the period of storage.
