General

Pre-commissioning shall be carried out by CP Engineer to ensure high quality performance.

All terminations inside the junction boxes, test boxes and T R shall be checked.

Anode grid resistance shall be checked.

Natural Potential

Prior to energize the CP system installed on newly constructed pipeline, the structure to soil potential shall be measured at all the measuring points, insulating joints etc.

Preliminary Adjustment

Before energizing, the TIR output shall be kept at 10% of design current output. After 48 hours, potential shall be measured and the transformer 1 rectifier output shall be increased, if required, in order to meet the protection criteria indicated in clause 7.4 of this RP.

Potential Measurement

Following the adjustment of CP station outputs to meet the structure to soil potentials, a complete set of potentials shall be recorded at all the measuring points and other positions measured earlier.

Should the potential of metallic casings be more negative than their natural potential previously recorded, then the Contractor shall investigate the reason for the low resistance between casing and carrier pipe.

Close interval potential survey (CIPS) and direct current voltage degradation (DCVD) surveys shall be carried out, after all adjustments to the CP system are made as per NACE RP 0502 "Pipeline External Corrosion Direct Assessment Methodology". Prior to any DCVD and CIP surveys, the Contractor shall develop a Survey Plan and Procedures and submit the same for KOC approval.

The results of ClPS and DCVD surveys shall be analyzed; and the Contractor's proposal for proper remedial actions shall be recommended and carried out after KOC approval.

Interference Testing

The Contractor shall perform all interference testing; and shall be responsible to contact all relevant authorities and arrange for their presence at all the required tests.

Page 27: KOC-L-015

1 DOC. NO. KOC-t-015 Page 26 of 41 I REV. 1

Should any interference test results show a positive change in the potential of a foreign installation or structure of more than + 20 mV, the Contractor shall take remedial action to eliminate the interaction.

Preferably, interference should be overcome by the use of adjustable resistors and diodes installed inside a bond station junction box, between the bonding cable from the pipeline and the foreign structure.

Final Commissioning

Final commissioning shall consist of the following:

a) Measuring structure to soil potentials at all measuring points by an approved method.

b) Measuring total current output from each station and the current in each direction where current measurements are possible.
