SITE VISIT MEETING NOTES

FACILITY:

ETIM PRODUCTION FACILITYOPERATION PERSONNEL: E.C, ORODO

X.A. THOMPSON

K. ANIMASHAUN

The process personnel requested information from MPN personnel as per operations listed below;

Production Separator

The level control on the production separator is currently a concern. The operations personnel revealed that the separator has not been de-sand for some time. Recently a de-sanding request has been raised by the Etim operation team.The sight glasses are blocked. The bridle piping is badly corroded and any attempt to clean the sight-glass in order to restore it to function may lead to breaking the piping.

Test Separator

This equipment is operated intermittently as required. Operational issues are not documented, however, the sight-glass is not functional and piping is badly corroded. Any attempt to clean it may lead to damaging the sight-glasses.

Condensate Pumps

The pumps are aged and operators confirm that a replacement request have been placed to change both pumps. The gear of one of the pumps is bad and no spares in the store to restore it back to service. Very urgent attention is required.

Instrument Air SystemOne of the instrument air compressors has just been replaced and the capacity is 358 SCFM. The second old compressor with operating capacity of 225 SCFM is bad and there is need for replacement. The instrument air system after-cooler attached to this compressor is out of service. Also, the instrument air dryers are out of service and is currently by-passed. There is need to urgently re-instate it to functional. However no major upset is reported since by-passing the instrument air dryer and because of this the supply is adequate.

The current instrument air supply scheme shows fuel gas as back-up supply to the instrument gas system. But the operators confirm that fuel gas was old design. Since the instrument air was installed, fuel gas has not been used as back-up.

There are no documented utility air users on ETIM production platform. However utility air station is available.

Gas To Edop PlatformThere is currently no flow of gas from Etim platform to Edop platform. This is due to rupture of the gas line. For the past three years, gas has not been sent to Edop platform. Gas supply to Edop platform may resume when the pipeline is repaired.

Diesel System SupplyDiesel supply to crane, emergency generator and fire water pumps is manual. The supply scheme installed over thirty years ago is not functional.

Fire Water SystemThe fire water system is currently not pressurized. However, the pumps are functional and activated on fire detection. The entire fire water piping has greatly deteriorated. Fire water divert valves must be closed manually to concentrate supply to the required locations.Fuel Gas SystemThis is functional without pre-heater and super heater in place. There is also a back-up line to instrument air. Since instrument air system was installed, gas has not been in used as back-up and there is no plan for this, hence there should be proper isolation.

Meter ProverThe existing Meter prover is out of service. The current flow Meters can not be proved. There is need to overhaul the prover.

MOL PumpsAll the three pumps are functional. However, the isolation valves of one pump is leaking, hence pump can not be taken out for maintenance.

GeneratorsThree gas engines exist at Etim production platform. One of these is out of service, the second generators cylinders are said to be in bad condition and the remaining one is not at peak performance. Anytime the generator with the bad cylinder is running, it shuts-in whenever a little surge is encountered. The third generator is functioning well and reliable. With the current improved production at Etim platform there is only one generator that can be relied upon to support production.

Potable Water SystemPotable water is supplied via boat. Current capacity can last six people for a week.

Sump TankBiocide is occasionally injected to the sump tank. The flow of biocide is by gravity from the main deck. One of the sump pumps is out of service and the other one is not reliable. There is a need to change both pumps.

Halon SystemAlready the switch gear room has been changed to carbon dioxide based, while generator room is not changed and out of service.

Salt Water SystemSalt water pump is not functional. This was previously used to pressurized fire water system and supply living quarters toilet WC.

Liquid Knock Out DrumNo operational issues as regards flow and control.

Diesel StorageSupply is by boat and its flows by gravity to the various users.

SECTION D1

SITE VISIT MEETING NOTES

FACILITY:

INIM PRODUCTION FACILITYOPERATION PERSONNEL: Engnr. AshiruThe process personnel requested information from MPN personnel as per operations listed below.Production Separators:

The operations personnel noted that the separators were de-sanded about 2-3 years ago. Only the Enang production separator is currently in use. The separator is operational with little or no carry over.

Generally the bridle piping is badly corroded and the sight glasses are not functioning well. With the extent of corrosion in the bridles, any attempt to clean the sight glasses may lead to damaging them. There are no major operational issues in terms of level control of the production separator.Test Separators:

The test separator is usually operated intermittently, however the bridles are badly corroded and need to be restored to their original functionality. Recently the Inim A test line was changed after the line ruptured.

Condensate Pumps:

The condensate pumps are old and obsolete without serviceable parts. One of the pumps is out of service with the belt and parts entirely bad. The second may run with difficulty and has leaking piping. A request to change the condensate pumps has been out for more than three years.Instrument Gas System:There is no instrument air system at Inim; instrument gas is used for all instrumentation activities at Inim. There is need to provide instrument air system for the facility.

Utility Gas Users:

The utility gas user currently identified at Inim is the Inim sump tank. Adequate utility gas stations are provided on the platform.Fire Water System:

The Fire water pumps are all weak and need replacement. One of the diesels driven fire water pump is currently tagged as out of operation and needs urgent attention to reinstate it. The fire water system is not pressurized and the piping has corroded heavily. The electric driven pump is available for use.Fuel Gas System/Generators:There are no operational issues with the fuel gas system.The gas engine driven generators are old and not very reliable. With the current drilling activities around Enang field, an increase in the electrical load is expected at Inim platform. The current generators are de-rated to give a combine out put of about 400kw and may not handle the expected increase in electrical load. The operation personnel prefer gas turbine generators (3 x 50 %).MOL Pumps:

One production train (Enang Separator) is currently in use. All Enang train pumps are in place, however two pumps from the Inim train have been taken out for service. Pumps suction lines are badly corroded and may need replacement.

Potable Water:Potable water is supplied by boat to the platform. The frequency of supply depends on usage.

Sump TankBiocide is occasionally injected to the sump tank to enable the oil to flow freely as it is being pumped out. Biocide flow is by gravity from the main deck. There is need to change the electrically driven pump. Salt Water System:

The Pump is out of service. It was previously used to pressurized the fire water system and provide water to the living quarters WC system.

Liquid Knock Out Drum:The operators have no idea as regard various internals installed. Currently the Inim flare is out of service with produced gas sent to Edop platform for flaring. The current export gas does not flow through the liquid K.O drum. However any time gas is sent to Asabo, the gas flow through the liquid K.O drum.Diesel Storage:

Diesel is supplied by boat to the facility. Frequency of supply depends on the extent of usage.General Commment:Instrumentation is obsolete and should be up graded. Major process lines have been de-rated, and urgently need to be revamped so that lines may be restored to their original integrity and pressure rating.

UTUE PRODUCTION FACILITYOPERATION PERSONNEL: James Esentia

James Umoreh

Chinedu Aboaja

George ItokThe process personnel requested information from MPN personnel regarding the facility operation integrity.

Gas to Ubit PPThere is currently no flow of gas from Utue platform to Ubit platform. The last time gas was sent from Utue platform to Ubit platform was on 06-06-1999.CraneThe existing crane doesnt have a pedestal. Diesel supply to the crane is done via flexible hose connection from a pipe on the diesel system to the crane day tank using an electrically driven pump.

Hydraulic oil supply to the crane is via a flexible hose connection from the hydraulic drum to the crane day tank using an air driven pump.

Potable Water SupplyPotable water is supply by boat to the platform on a weekly basis. The potable water is operational. 10 tonnes of water is normally received each week.Fuel Gas SystemThe existing fuel gas system is operational and does not require pre-heating or superheating to satisfy the engine specification requirement.

Production SeparatorA general maintenance and shutdown of separator was done in 2004 and sand was removed from the separator. After that, the separator level control stopped giving problems.

Liquid Knock Out DrumDuring the general maintenance and shutdown the demister in the vessel was discovered to have collapsed and it was removed. Presently the vessel has no demister.

Instrument AirThe existing instrument air system supplied air at a pressure of 60 psig. Existing instrument air supply is not adequate. Instrument air system capacity could not be obtained.MOL PumpsThe pumps are adequate for current production. One of the pumps was out of service.

Condensate PumpsRecently the two condensate pumps have been changed with the same rating as the previous pumps. The pumps are pneumatic and are manually operated, however pressure switches are installed. When ever a pump is put into operation, it tends to overload the instrument air system. Usually an operator stands on location for the period of usage.

Trash (Waste) CompactorThe Trash Compactor is air driven and for the duration of the site visit it was not in used; hence its impact on the air supply system could not be ascertained.Crane Oil Hydraulic Supply Pumps.The Crane hydraulic oil pumps are air driven, but the consumption is low: hence they do not overload the instrument air supply when in operation.

Fire Water SystemGenerally, fire water piping and fitting are badly corroded. The Jockey pump is not operational. (Formally the salt water pump was used as the jockey pump). There are two existing fire water pumps: one, diesel driven and one, electrically driven.Chemical InjectionCurrently there is no chemical injection facility on Utue production platform. However, biocide is injected periodically to the sump tank. This is done using a manual kit.Salt Water SystemThis system is out of service. Previously it was used to provide water to the living quarters toilet WC system and to keep fire water main ring pressurized (as the fire water jockey pump).

Meter Prover LoopThe team could not identify any loop used as meter prover.Inergen SystemCurrently the switchgear room inergen system has been changed from Halon based system to carbon dioxide based. The generator room inergen system was still based on Halon system and is out of service.Diesel Supply System

Diesel is supply by boat to the facility. The existing diesel storage facility is adequate. Frequency of supply is dependent on usage.
