Use of UOP Design Specifications

Each project listed on the first page of the Basic Engineering Design Data, UOP Project
Specification 102, will be represented by a book or books of UOP design specifications consisting of
project specifications, drawings, UOP Standard Drawings, and UOP Standard Specifications as
defined in the Engineering Agreement.
The project specifications and drawings define the specific equipment requirements of the project
and refer to the Standard Specifications and Standard Drawings for additional detail requirements. In
the event of conflicting requirements between project specifications and Standard Specifications or
Standard Drawings, the requirements of the project specifications shall govern.
When necessary, revisions of the project specifications will be made by issuing a Revision
Tabulation sheet and the revised sheets of the specification.
The full content of each book of UOP design specifications is defined in the Index, Project
Specification 101. This index is periodically revised to indicate the latest revision number of each
Revision Tabulation for Sections 100 through 900, the latest revision number of drawings, and the
revision number of each UOP Standard Drawing and each UOP Standard Specification.

2.

Standards, Codes and Practices

UOP design specifications are based on industry standards, general codes, and standard engineering
practices used in the United States. The detailed design and construction performed by the
Contractor(s) shall conform with the latest edition of the applicable sections of the US codes and
practices and with all other applicable governing national, state and local laws or codes, where more
stringent. When requested by the Owner, UOP will incorporate other codes or standards, which are
referenced in the project specifications.

3.

Utilization of UOP Design Specifications During Project Implementation

The accompanying project specifications incorporate UOP Standard Specifications and UOP
Standard Drawings. Other standard specifications have been considered only if referenced in the
project specifications. The detailed design, procurement, and construction performed by the
Contractor(s) shall also conform to all other standard specifications required by the Owner. In the
event of conflicting requirements between UOP design specifications and Owner's standard
specifications, the most stringent of each requirement shall govern.
The Contractor is responsible for detailed engineering, using UOP design specifications as the basis.
Typically, the Contractors responsibilities include:
1. Design of utility and off-site systems and/or verification of the adequacy of existing facilities.

2. Verification that equipment and piping design pressures are adequate for the shutoff pressure of
purchased pumps, relief valve settings, final plot layout, and piping arrangement.
3. Verification that the net positive suction head available (NPSHA) provided in the detailed design
is adequate for the NPSH requirements (NPSHR) of the purchased pumps.
4. Verify that suction and discharge pressures of purchased pumps and compressors are adequate
for the final plot layout, piping arrangement, and the pressure drop of purchased equipment.
5. Adjust, as necessary, or verify that the system hydraulics represented in the UOP Project
Specifications are adequate for the final plot layout, piping arrangement, and pressure drop of
purchased equipment.
6. Provide thermal expansion relief valves for trapped fluids where necessary due to fluid
expansion caused by process conditions, heat tracing, ambient conditions, etc.
7. Provide equipment foundation design based on a minimum of full water load in the supported
equipment.
8. Convert to other units of measurement from those used in the UOP Project Specifications, if
required.
9. Convert to the owner's equipment and instrument numbering systems, if required.
10. Provide utility header valving and instrumentation in accordance with the Owner's instructions.
11. Where relief valves discharge to a closed relief system verify that the relief system has proper
drainage, proper liquid knockout facilities, and sufficiently low back pressure to assure specified
relief valve capacities.
12. UOP is guided in the area of Noise Level Limitations by USA practices and the Occupational
Safety & Health Administration (OSHA). Verify that the overall plant design and purchased
equipment conform to regulatory or customer defined noise limitations.
4.

Supplier / Manufacturer Selection

In general, the Owner and the Contractor(s) are responsible for Supplier / Manufacturer selection
within the constraints imposed by UOP design specifications. UOP provides guidance to help assure
compliance with UOP design specifications and to help assure that purchased equipment and
services meet certain minimum quality standards. UOP uses the following terms where purchasing
guidance is deemed appropriate:

Mandatory Supplier/Manufacturer
Supplier/Manufacturer which has consistently provided a product that satisfies UOP's design,
performance and functional requirements. The product is critical to the operation of the unit
and UOP's performance guarantees. UOP has made a reasonable determination that there is no
acceptable alternative Supplier/Manufacturer for the product among Suppliers/Manufacturers
known to UOP. The Owner/Contractor must obtain the product from the specified
Supplier/Manufacturer, unless approved in writing by UOP. The use of unapproved products
may jeopardize process guarantees.

4.2

Recommended Supplier/Manufacturer
Supplier/Manufacturer which has consistently provided a product that satisfies UOP's design,
performance and functional requirements. The product typically includes design features
which enhance the operation of the units.
Additional attributes used to describe Recommended Suppliers/Manufacturers include but are
not limited to: enhances operation of the process units, demonstrated ability to provide global
service, supply spare parts, and a proven quality (performance, reliability, etc.) product. The
Supplier/Manufacturer may participate in a technical relationship with UOP.
This list is not exclusive, and the products from an Owner-preferred Supplier/Manufacturer
that can satisfy the design and functional requirements of a UOP design specification will be
acceptable. It is the joint responsibility of the Owner/Contractor to determine equivalency.
UOP Refining and Petrochemical Equipment Technology is the recommended
supplier for the MODULAR CCR SECTION. UOP has supplied over 25 Modular
CCR Sections worldwide. The UOP CCR Section has the vast UOP operations
experience built into each unit.

Supplier/Manufacturer or Equal
Supplier/Manufacturer which has provided product that has satisfied UOP's design,
performance and functional requirements.
This list is not exclusive, and the products from an Owner-preferred Supplier/Manufacturer
that can satisfy the design and functional requirements of a UOP design specification will be
acceptable. It is the joint responsibility of the Owner/Contractor to determine equivalency.
The Owner/Contractor may obtain the product from the specified Supplier/Manufacturer or
from an equivalent Supplier/Manufacturer.

Engineering Design Information (EDI)

UOP issues an Engineering Design Information (EDI) book to provide background process and
design basis information to the Owner and the Contractor. The EDI documents are not considered as
design specifications but they do provide functional design data for the equipment included in the
UOP design specifications. The EDI data is informational only and is intended to augment the data
provided in the design specifications. In all situations, design specifications take precedence over
information in the EDI book.
