1. PURPOSE
The purpose of this scope of work is to provide a su mmary of the work to be performed by
CONTRACTOR as specified in the CONTRACT. It also outlines the interfaces with other
contractors that will be required during the course of the WORK.

2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND LOCATION

Mellitah Oil and Gas COMPANY is developing plans to replace the existing Floating
Storage Offloading (FSO) “SLOUG”with a new build vessel well before January 2014 at
its offshore field “BOURI”.
The Mellitah Oil and Gas COMPANY offshore BOURI FIELD is located 120 km North
West of TRIPOLI. A central processing platform DP4 and a satellite platform DP3 were
originally designed to produce 150,000 BOPD of tanker’s quality crude oil for export.
The existing facilities are performing degassing and dehydration of the crude. The treated
oil is pumped and stored via 2 (two) 16” sea lines on the FSO SLOUG (Floating Storage
and Offloading) permanently moored to a SPM and offloading to a shuttle tanker from the
stern of the vessel throughout Floating Hose having the following diameter 40” to 20 “and
16”.

3. SUMMARY SCOPE
3.1 GENERAL
WORK covered by this CONTRACT shall be carried out in three Parts by
CONTRACTOR, as described further below. The Work shall include the detailed design,
engineering, procurement, fabrication, construction, installation and commissioning of the
OFFSHORE FACILITIES and related components. The OFFSHORE FACILITIES consist
of the following: -
∑ New subsea pipeline including tie-in to DP4 platform to the new FSO location.
∑ A Single Point Mooring (SPM) System.
∑ A Floating Storage and Offloading (FSO) Vessel.

3.2 SUB SEA PIPELINE

The sub sea Pipeline encompasses all components associated with the new FSO loading line
from platform to the SPM system.
The sub sea pipeline is divided into three segments as follows:
∑ A tie-in to the existing topside facilities at DP4 platform including new risers
∑ A new pipeline from the existing topside facilities at DP4 to the new SPM location.
∑ Tie in segment which connects the sub sea pipeline to the Pipeline End Manifold
(PLEM).

∑ A structural connector (as applicable) between the mooring system and the FSO
Vessel
∑ A crude transfer system between the FSO mooring system and the pipeline end
manifold (PLEM)
∑ Pile system for the anchoring of the FSO mooring legs.

3.4 FSO VESSEL

The FSO vessel consists of a floating storage and offloading vessel that provides a
temporary storage facility for the incoming crude oil with a minimum storage capacity of
1,500,000 Barrels, a measuring system for the crude oil to be exported and a tandem
offloading system for transfer of the stored crude to an export tanker. Other structural,
mechanical, electrical and related systems as specified in subsequent sections are also part
of the FSO
The FSO requirements are as follows:

equipped with a stripping well and pumps. They shall be equipped with Crude Oil
Washing Guns (COW) and with tank heating to ensure that the crude temperature
does not fall below the cloud point.
- As it must be possible to produce into any tank while discharging any tank, or to
produce in any tank while entering any tank for inspection & cleaning, there must be
two (2) segregated cargo loading/offloading headers and two (2) segregated Inert
Gas headers.
- The FSO shall have a single integrated central Control Room (CCR) which will
include monitoring of key parameters of the machinery spaces and power generating
plant.
- The FSO power generation shall be preferably be located on deck. Power generation
located in the engine room is acceptable, but is less desirable.
- The power generation unit shall be a dual fuel unit capable of burning marine diesel
oil, and/or produced crude.
