In Tab. 1 it is summarized the EMS background related to the Pipe Plants Project (EMS References updated to 2012, excluding in-progress activities).

Tab.1

 

EMS can provide assistance for all the Project Phases, including:

•  The Conceptual Design;
• The Feasibility Study / Business Planning;
• The Market Study;
• The Technological and Mechanical Layout;
• The Equipment Specifications and evaluation of the reference performances of the production / process lines;
• The Project Budget evaluation;
• Operation and Maintenance Manning evaluation (number and reference skills);
• The technical support during the Procurement, Plant Erection and Commissioning Phases, including Project Management / Project Control;
• The Basic Engineering for Erection;
• The development of the Quality Manual, Quality Procedures and Technical Instructions for the obtainment of the API Licence (API 5CT, API 5L);
• The Economic / Financial assessment of the Project, in particular in case of Project Financing Structures.

 

TYPICAL EMS CONCEPTS FOR OCTG AND LINE PIPE FINISHING LINES

 

The enclosed Layouts and Flow Schemes  represent the typical EMS solutions for:

• OCTG Finishing Lines, in compliance with the latest API 5CT (9th Edition), GOST R53366 and suitable to process Premium Joints with Coupling;

• Line Pipe Finishing Lines, in compliance with API 5L (45th Edition).

 

Depending on the reference Mix characteristics, Plant Capacity or available space, the Lines can be also combined in:

• Quality / Finishing Line;
• Heat Treatment / Quality Lines.

 

EMS has also developed dedicated Layouts and Flow Schemes for the OCTG Finishing Lines to comply with other reference Specifications:

• GOST 632/80 and GOST 633/80 for Casing and Tubing respectively;
• ARAMCO Specifications for Tubing and Casing;
• Premium Integral Joints.
