INTRODUCTION
Purpose & Scope of this Document
This Specification defines the minimum technical requirements for the design; manufacture,
testing and commissioning of the Jacket Upend Control System (UCS) on the Eldfisk II 2/7S
Jacket structure and the supply of 4 No. ROV operated flood valves for the Bridge Support
Jacket structure
The 2/7S Jacket is an 8-leg structure with 2 No. Flotation Tanks. All jacket legs will be flooded
during installation to achieve upending and obtain on-bottom stability. The 4 main legs will be
subdivided into 3 compartments. The 4 internal legs will not be subdivided. Each of the
Flotation Tanks will be subdivided into 15 compartments. The structure is designed to be
barge launched.
The Bridge Support Jacket is a 4-leg structure, which is designed to be lift installed. All jacket
legs have single compartments and will be flooded during installation to assist on-bottom
stability.
Note: This document primarily specifies the technical requirements for the UCS on the 2/7S
Jacket structure
The technical requirements for 4 No. ROV operated flood valves and for the sling retainer /
release hydraulic mechanism for upper trunnion required for the Bridge Support Jacket
structure are detailed in Appendix 4 and Appendix 11 of this Specification.
Both jackets will be installed in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea; the approximate water
depth at the offshore installation site is -75.0m.
2.2
Eldfisk II Field Development
ConocoPhillips, on behalf of the PL018 license, plans to design, construct and install the
following new facilities at the Eldfisk Field:
x
A new wellhead, process and accommodation platform designated 2/7S

supported by a steel jacket,
A new bridge system linking the 2/7S platform to the existing 2/7E platform. The
bridge system comprises two bridges and an intermediate bridge support. The
bridge support comprises a jacket sub-structure and Topside with flare facilities,
Modifications necessary on the existing Eldfisk Complex installations, Eldfisk 2/7B

and Embla 2/7D to facilitate continued operations of exiting facilities and for the
integration of the new 2/7S platform,
New pipeline connections from 2/7S to the existing oil and gas export pipelines
downstream of 2/7B to Ekofisk Complex,
New subsea power and control cable between 2/7S and an external source.
The new 2/7S platform will be the new field control centre for Eldfisk Complex. The existing
platforms at the Eldfisk Complex will be converted to not normally manned facilities, to be
operated and controlled from the new 2/7S platform.
The illustration below gives an indication of the new facilities and the existing Eldfisk Field
facilities.

BASIC DESIGN INFORMATION

Design Life
The Supplier shall design the UCS to meet the Project requirements. The UCS supplied to the
requirements of this Specification shall be used to assist in the installation of the Jacket
structure detailed in section 2.1 of this Specification.
The DCC, UIP, HPU, PMC, Hydraulic Jacks, Umbilicals and Winches shall be designed and
manufactured for a minimum design life of 5 years and shall be removed from the Installation
Vessel or Jacket after Jacket installation on the seabed.
The remaining components of the UCS may or may not remain in situ. The Jacket leg
compartment Flood and Vent Valves shall not be removed and must therefore be designed to
have a minimum 40 year, in situ, service life. The Flood and Vent Valves shall remain in the
closed position to prevent long term egress of biocide from the leg compartments.
4.2
Environmental/Installation Data
At the Jacket fabrication site prior to loadout the Upend Control System will be exposed to a
severe sea/air environment for a period of up to 12 months.
During installation several components of the UCS (i.e. flood & vent valves, tube bundles,
electrical cables, pressure sensors, hydraulic jacks and umbilical interface panels) shall be
immersed in seawater and may remain in this situation for a number of days before use.
These components shall therefore be capable of withstanding a hydrostatic pressure of 0.98
MN/m2 (this value has been derived to account for the field water depth plus 100 year storm
wave crest elevation).
Climatic conditions at the fabrication site and offshore installation site are given below:

It should also be noted that equipment located on the outside of the Jacket structures might
also be subject to direct radiant heat from the sun, which could generate temperatures as high
as +80C (maximum). The Supplier should take particular note of this high temperature
requirement particularly when selecting materials and designing the UCS.

2/7S JACKET TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

General
After completion of the Jacket at the Jacket Fabrication site, the Jacket with Flotation Tanks
installed (each one located at opposite sides of the Jacket structure) shall be loaded out onto a
transportation / launch barge in preparation for transportation and offshore installation.
Prior to load-out the UCS shall be functionally tested and commissioned by the UCS Supplier
with the assistance of the Jacket Fabricator. After completion of the testing and
commissioning, each Jacket leg and Flotation Tank compartment shall be filled with
compressed air to a pressure of 0.05 MN/m2 by the Jacket Fabricator. The compartment
pressures shall be monitored by the UCS to confirm the integrity of each compartment. An
ongoing daily check* on the compartment pressures versus ambient temperatures shall be
carried out after jacket load-out, during transportation to the offshore site and prior to jacket
launch. Monitoring cables accessible from the deck of the barge shall be provided for this
purpose (cable specification shall be in accordance to Appendix 7 of this Specification).
Monitoring of the Jacket leg compartments shall also be carried out during jacket installation
onto the seabed. Note: the Supplier shall also provide an option for monitoring the Flotation
Tank compartment pressures during installation of the jacket onto the seabed i.e. prior to
removal of the Flotation Tanks from the Jacket structure when the tanks shall be underwater.
During any storage period on the transportation / launch barge and during transit to the
offshore site the hydraulic system maybe subject to thermal effects. The Supplier shall design
the UCS system such that these thermal effects cannot cause premature opening of the
Jacket and Flotation Tank flood valves.
* Any variations in the pressure measurements prior to offshore installation shall be discussed
with the site team / designer / installation contractor and remedial action agreed.
The UCS shall be designed to control a series of flood and vent valves on the Jacket legs and
nominated Flotation Tank compartments, allowing the flooding of buoyancy compartments in a
pre-planned sequence, such that the Jacket maintains integrity and stability throughout the
complete upending and setting down operation.
The Jacket is designed to be barge launched and the top of the Jacket (launch frame) will
submerge to approximately 55m water depth. After completion of the launch the Jacket will
float at approximately 11.7 to the horizontal and will then be towed to the Installation Vessel
(IV) to commence the upending and set down operation.
Once the main lifting slings are connected to the IV crane, the primary electro-hydraulic
Umbilical, which shall be located on the deck of the IV shall be reeled off its Storage Winch
and manoeuvred over to the Jacket structure where itwill be manually connected to the
Umbilical Interface Panels (UIP). The IV crane shall assist with handling the Umbilical onto the
Jacket structure. Buoyancy (floats) aids shall be supplied to assist with handling the Umbilical.
The floats shall be capable of being attached / detached as necessary during deployment and
recovery of the Umbilical.
The primary electro-hydraulic Umbilical shall also be connected to the DCC located adjacent
to the Umbilical Storage Winches on the deck of the IV. The purpose of the Umbilical / DCC /
HPU is to provide means of opening and closing the valves and to monitor Jacket and
Flotation Tank compartment pressures and valve position data.
The Jacket shall be installed using a combination of the IV crane and controlled flooding and
venting of Jacket leg and nominated Flotation Tank compartment valves from the DCC located
on the deck of the IV.

The UCS is required to achieve the final Jacket vertical position prior to installation on the
seabed. The set-down operation will be carried out using the IV crane. Limited ballasting may
be required during this operation for trimming the Jacket.
Any lights and cameras to be used during the set-down operation shall be provided by ROVs.
After the Jacket is on the seabed the UCS shall be used to complete the flooding of the Jacket
leg and nominated Flotation Tank compartments to assist with on-bottom stability prior to
piling. The primary electro-hydraulic Umbilical shall be disconnected and recovered to the
deck of the IV after the Jacket leg-flooding operation is completed and prior to removal of the
Flotation Tanks.
The flotation tanks shall be removed from the jacket one at a time using the IV crane after the
jacket has been set down on the seabed (before the piling operation). To assist with the
removal operation each tank shall be equipped with one hydraulic wedge release jack, which
shall be operated from top platform of the jacket (El +22.00m) using the UCS HPU or
Installation Contractor provided HPU. Once the flotation tanks are removed from the jacket,
they will have to be fully drained and back-loaded onto a transportation barge.
Any equipment that is left permanently installed on the Jacket after its installation shall be
rated for 100m water depth to allow for the 100 year wave condition.
5.2
Jacket Configuration
The Jacket structure is designed to be barge launched and installed in 75m water depth in the
Norwegian sector of the North Sea.
The general configuration of the Jacket and the UCS are shown on Project drawings. Specific
references to Jacket leg numbers and buoyancy compartment numbers quoted below can be
found on schematic drawing:
x
ELDS-DR-S-00099-001
Jacket Flooding Schematic
The estimated upper bound dry weight of the Jacket structure is 13,200 tonnes. Actual weight
will be confirmed on detailed weight reports issued for the Jacket structure.
Each Jacket corner leg (A1, A2, D1 & D2) has 3 buoyant floodable compartments. The inner
and outer launch truss legs (B1, B2, C1 & C2) have 1 buoyant floodable compartment each.
All Jacket pile sleeves shall be free flooding. Each Flotation Tank has 15 buoyant floodable
compartments. Three compartments on each tank (C5, C10 & C15) shall require controlled
flooding using flood and vent valves. The remaining tank compartments shall be flooded using
rip-out diaphragms, supplied by others.
The UCS shall incorporate a status monitoring system to ensure that the upending operation
team is aware of the integrity of the Jacket / Flotation Tank floodable compartments and the
open and closed positions of the flood and vent valves.
The data shall be transmitted from the pressure sensors and valve position indicators to the
UIP via pre-installed electrical cables and from the UIP to the DCC via the primary electrohydraulic Umbilicals.
From EL+0.00m (LAT) to the top of the Jacket is 24.50m (24.50m above MSL) after
installation, prior to cutting.

Flooding System
Operating Requirements
The flooding system for the Jacket legs and the nominated Flotation Tank compartments shall
be designed for operation from the DCC. The DCC shall be located on the deck of the IV near
the HPU and Umbilical Storage Winches. The DCC shall be operated manually via HMI after
the Jacket has been launched and positioned alongside the IV.
Primary hydraulic and electrical energy to the systems located on the Jacket shall be provided
by the primary electro-hydraulic Umbilical via the UIP located on top of the Jacket.
After the launch the Jacket will float horizontally in the range of 5.5 to 13.6 (intact condition),
After launch the Jacket will be towed and then connected to the IV crane prior to operation of
the DCC. The final setting down of the Jacket onto the seabed shall be achieved using the IV
crane in conjunction with the DCC by operating specified flood valves in Jacket legs (A1, A2,
B2, C2, D1 & D2) and Flotation Tank compartments (C5, C10 & C15). The primary electrohydraulic Umbilical shall be connected to the Jacket by the IV crane prior to commencement of
the upending operation. A back-up Umbilical, stored on a wooden reel shall also be provided
in the event of a primary Umbilical failure.
The Umbilicals, winches and HPU requirements are detailed in Appendix 5 of this
Specification.
5.3.2
Jacket Legs and Flotation Tanks
All actuated flood valves shall be located outside all Jacket leg and nominated Flotation Tank
floodable compartments and shall be operated from the DCC. All flood valves shall be high
integrity, leak proof, full-bore ball valves. The method of actuation shall be hydraulic. All valves
fitted with a spring return to the closed position shall be single acting hydraulic to open the
valve. Hydraulically actuated ball valves are detailed in Appendix 3 of this Specification.
ROV operated valves are located on the outside of all Jacket leg and the nominated Flotation
Tank floodable compartments. The ROV valves shall be secured in the closed position and
shall only be used in the event of malfunction of the hydraulically actuated flood valves (except
on the inner truss legs). All ROV valves that are opened during the Jacket installation shall be

Venting System
Jacket Legs and Flotation Tanks
As each Jacket leg and nominated Flotation Tank compartment is flooded with water it will
become necessary to vent off the air being compressed in the top of the buoyancy
compartments. This is to ensure dissipation of the energy (compressed air), which would
otherwise be stored under each watertight diaphragm. It also reduces the risk of backpressure across the open flood valve, and in the Jacket legs reduces oxygen levels that would
prevent biocide working efficiently. There is no biocide in any of the Flotation Tank
compartments.
The vent lines for the corner Jacket legs (A1, A2, D1 & D2) shall run inside the legs for added
protection up to the top of the legs and shall be fitted with spring return to the closed position,
single acting hydraulic to open the valve.

APPENDIX 6 PRESSURE & VALVE POSITION MONITORING SYSTEM /

HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE MEASURING INSTRUMENTATION
1.0 INTRODUCTION
This Appendix defines the requirements for the supply of the system for monitoring the integrity of the
Jacket leg and Flotation Tank compartments and the position of the Jacket hydraulically actuated
flood/vent valves prior to Jacket load-out at the fabrication site, during transportation to the offshore
site and after launch at the offshore site. All transducer and valve positioning data shall be transmitted
and displayed using SCADA technology.
The monitoring of the Jacket legs and Flotation Tank compartments pressures and flood/vent valve
position shall be carried out, as follows:
x
Prior and Post Jacket load-out, monitoring shall be carried out from the fabrication sites quay
side or on the transportation barge using the PMC via the monitoring cable(s),
Prior to launch / installation at the installation site, monitoring shall be carried out from the
deck of the transportation barge using the PMC via the monitoring cable(s),
Post Launch, monitoring shall be carried out using the DCC via the primary electrical umbilical.
Knowledge of the air pressure contained in all of the Flotation Tank compartments and the floodable
Jacket legs compartments is required. Each compartment will be pressurised using compressed air to
0.05 MN/m2 (7.25 psi). Variations in this pressure may occur due to environmental temperature
changes.
Pressure transducers detailed in this Appendix shall be used in the Jacket legs (installed near the
bottom) and Flotation Tanks and shall be installed such that they penetrate through the wall of each
compartment and are secured on a flange mounting assembly. A probe type transmitter shall be used
for this application.
The pressure transducers described in this Appendix are intended for underwater service. The
transducers will be used to measure the hydrostatic pressure of seawater, and also the head of
seawater plus the static pressure of entrapped air inside the Jacket leg and Flotation Tank
compartments. These measurements will be used to calculate the depth of water level inside the
Jacket leg buoyancy compartments during upending and flooding. The same transducers shall also be
used to monitor the internal air pressure inside each Jacket leg and Flotation Tank compartment prior
to load-out, during transportation and offshore installation.
Since the application for this system is critical, the Supplier shall ensure that only equipment with a
proven track record for this application is used.
2.0 SYSTEM PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION

Transducers shall be immersed in seawater at various depths up to 75m and must be capable of
faultless operation without maintenance.

energising transducers. This equipment shall incorporate span and zero adjustments for all measuring
channels. Since control panel space is at a premium, indicators and controls shall be as small as
possible consistent with ease of operation. Power supplies/amplifiers shall be separate from
indicators/controls, if this reduces the space behind the control panel facia.
The display shall be intelligible under varying ambient light conditions, including strong sunlight, at a
distance up to 1m.
5.0 INSPECTION AND TESTING

The Supplier shall perform a type test to demonstrate that the materials, manufacture and
performance of the equipment meets the Suppliers own performance specifications.
The Supplier shall demonstrate that the complete transducer assembly (transducer case, pressure
connection and connector cable or gland and cable assembly) is impervious to ingress of water when
immersed at a static pressure of 1.5 MN/m2. The duration of the test shall be 24 hours (minimum) and
the transducer shall remain energised during this time. Calibration checks shall be carried out
immediately prior to, during and following the pressure test. A visual inspection shall also be carried
out.
After final calibration, system accuracy or combined error of transducer and electronics, shall not
exceed +/- 5% of span, and shall be maintained without temperature compensation for the operating
temperature range. A calibration curve or record shall be submitted for the transducer, associated
electronics and readout devices.
The completed installation shall be capable of being tested at the fabrication site over its full head or
pressure measuring range. Therefore, each transducer shall have an appropriate rated pressure
connection. Transducer test pressure shall be up to the over-range protection pressure of each
instrument.
