1. PURPOSE

To establish a clear set of guidelines to be followed when performing Hot Tap and Stopple installations.

2. DEFINITIONS

Coupon The part of the pipe that is removed during the Hot Tap operation.

Hot Tap The method of making a mechanical tie-in by welding an attachment to the pipe that is in
service; then installing a valve and cutting a hole in the existing pipe through the new valve using a
tapping machine specifically designed for such a purpose.

Stopple The installation of a flow-blocking device in a piping system that cannot otherwise be isolated
depressurized or cleared.

Contractor the Company that supplies the Hot Tap and/or Stopple machine and its operating
personnel.

Hot Tap/Stopple Document Package A collection of documentation required to obtain Hot Tap
approval:

Weldment Calculation (if applicable)

Maintenance/Construction Representative Person assigned by the TES Manager to follow a job,
depending on whether the job is part of maintenance or a capital project.

3. SCOPE

Hot Taps and Stopples shall only be installed on piping that cannot be safely cleared and/or
isolated due to operational and/or system design constraints. It must also be evaluated to see if
the Hot Tap or Stopple could be avoided by delaying the job until an upcoming planned Outage or
Turnaround. Any Hot Tap and/or Stopple must be part of an approved MOC with Hot Tap/Stopple
Document Package and shall require a PSSR prior to being put into service.

4. PROCEDURE

4.1 General
4.1.1 Hot Taps are NOT to be performed on piping containing:
a. Combustible vapor/air/oxygen mixtures with-in flammable and/or explosive ranges.
b. Hydrogen, if the equipment has operated above the Nelson Curve Limits
c. Any chemicals likely to violently decompose or become hazardous from the heat
generated by welding.
d. Strong Caustics or Acids
e. Oxygen or Ammonia
f. Any process stream containing ethylene or acetylene*
* Streams with low concentrations of ethylene/acetylene can be considered for
Hot Tapping contingent on concurrence from Corporate Process Safety.

4.1.2 Hot Tapping shall not be performed on piping under vacuum unless approved by the
TES Manager.
4.1.3 Hot Taps shall not be performed on piping that is lined, clad, or where stress relieving
is required.
4.1.4 Hot Taps made upstream of equipment and/or in-line instrumentation that are not
adequately protected by filters and cannot be isolated, shall be carefully evaluated for
safety and operational risks that could arise from a coupon or metal shavings being left
behind in the piping system. A risk analysis shall be completed and added to the
Document Package if this paragraph is applicable.

4.1.5 Hot Tap and Stopple machinery shall be operated by authorized Contractor personnel
only. Procurement maintains a list of approved Contractors. Potential new Contractor
must go through the Sites procedure for qualifying new Vendors. It is the
responsibility of the Contractor to ensure such equipment is properly maintained and in
good working condition, and that their personnel are adequately trained.
4.1.6 When feasible, Hot Taps should be made on the top of the pipe vs. the bottom, in
horizontal pipe runs.

4.2 Design Considerations

4.2.1 All piping components used in a Hot Tap or Stopple installation shall be in accordance
with the relevant Beaumont Site Piping Standards, with the exception of weldments
which shall be in accordance with Table 1 of this procedure Any proposed piping
component deviation will require approval from the TES Manager or designee.
4.2.2 All welding on piping components used in a Hot Tap installation shall be in accordance
with approved welding procedures.
4.2.3 Full port ball or gate valves are required for Hot Tap and Stopple installations, the Hot
Tap Contractor will supply the cutter diameter to be used for the Hot Tap and Stopple.
BASF will confirm the cutter will fit through the valve without damaging the seat.
These valves shall comply with the appropriate Beaumont Site Piping Standard.
4.2.4 The preferred method for completion of a Hot Tap and Stopple is a full port valve with
a blind. If a completion plug is to be used in the case of a Stopple, the elastomer
components shall require review and approval by the TES Group or Process
Technology Group to ensure compatibility with the process.
4.2.5 The piping and supporting structure must have an engineering review of the stress
loading from the weight of the hot tap and stopple machine. This review can be simply
good engineering judgment, or if good engineering judgment dictates, a formal stress
analysis shall be completed and included in the Hot Tap/Stopple Document Package.
4.2.6 Table 1 has been attached as a guideline for selecting the appropriate weldment. If
this table is not used, the TES Group must review and approve.
4.2.7 The location of the Hot Tap should be more that 18 away from all flanges or threaded
connections, plus more than three inches from any existing weld seam. Deviations
from these requirements must have the approval of the TES Manager or designee.
4.2.8 The design of the hot tap will allow for adequate purging after the Hot Tap and Stopple
is complete.

4.3 Preparation

4.3.1 Operations should be appraised of any requests prior to proceeding with the
preparations for the work. It is recommended a minimum two weeks advanced notice
be provided in order for Operations to have adequate time to prepare a risk evaluation
and emergency plan associated with completing the J SA, while the Contractor
performs mechanical checks in the field.
4.3.2 The location of the Hot Tap shall allow for:
a) Adequate clearance for the machine
b) Adequate support for the machine
c) Availability of air or electric power for the machine
d) Easy and safe egress for personnel making the Hot Tap or Stopple, and easy
access for emergency personnel.
4.3.3 The Contractor shall perform measurements and calculations to verify that the cutter or
the pilot drill shall not penetrate through the opposite wall of the line being Hot Tapped.
Preferably the drill should not penetrate beyond the center of the pipe. For size-on-
size or one size smaller connections, where the drill tip will have to move further into
the pipe, measurements must ensure that the drill will not contact the inner surface of
the other side of the pipe. The Maintenance/Construction representative shall review
these measurements.
4.3.4 Thickness measurements shall be taken in the location of the Hot Tap, extending out
to either side, a minimum of 12 inches, or the diameter of the branch pipe, whichever
is greater. If any of the following conditions exist, a engineering evaluation shall be
performed by a TES engineer, to determine if a Hot Tap can be safely performed:
a) Actual thickness <3/16
b) Actual thickness >1
c) Actual thickness <Nominal thickness corrosion allowance
4.3.5 If stress cracking is possible in the service, shear wave examination of the surface of a
stainless steel pipe is required. If stress cracking exists, a qualified
engineer/technician shall determine the suitability of the existing pipe for the Hot Tap.
4.3.6 The attainable flow velocity in the line being Hot Tapped shall be verified. If the flow in
a line being hot tapped is within the following velocity ranges: Liquid: 1.5 15.0 feet
per second, Gas or vapor: 25.0 200.0 feet per second, then no engineering review is
required. For liquid or gas velocities outside these ranges, Site Engineering will review
the hot tap as per API Recommended Practice 2201 Procedures for Welding or Hot
Tapping on Equipment in Service, Latest Edition. The TES Group shall evaluate
required flow in vapor lines on a case-by-case basis.
