Every recipient will be fitted with a hermetically-sealed lid with an opening that is
sufficiently large to allow the contents to be stirred: the outside and inside are protected
against oxidation, and, the lid, are marked with a strip of color identical to the contents.

4.0 COMPOSITION OF THE PAINT PRODUCTS USED

a) Quality

The composition and quality of the products may not differ from batch to batch. A
batch is all of the products of a specified manufacture. If the analyses of products
bring to light that the composition does not conform to the specifications of the
paint manufacturer, the OWNER may refuse to use this batch of products. The
paint products must comply with the following conditions

 They must have the viscosity necessary for the described use and the
established condition: use of the brush - paint roller (spray gun only for special

7.0 PREPARATION OF THE SURFACES

7.1 General Specifications

The cases that occur in practice on building sites, with regard to painted surfaces, can be
broken down as follows:

 Material of which the oxide content disappears by natural oxidation.

 Material that has already been covered with a layer of paint in the workshop.
 Material that is covered with old paint layers that show different degrees of
weathering.

Good preparation oldie surface is the best guarantee for good anti-corrosion protection.

Paintwork may never begin until the surface to be treated is dry and is independent of the
base coat and cleared of dirt, dust, rust, scale, grease, salt attack, cement powder,
cement mud-scale, sand, oil, etc.

Based on the environmental conditions of coastal and saline nature, the Painting
specification for station pipes defines the complete requirements like:

 Surface preparation standards like NACE etc.

 Sand blasting process
 Color Codes for piping
 Paint materials types and their DFT measurement.
 Selection and application of paints on external surfaces.

The pipeline passes through the coastal and marine environment, the Table-4 of this
specification to be followed for the painting works.

The method of preparation of the surface will be implemented in accordance with the
preparation methods described below:

 Cleaning (bright blast-cleaning);

 Mechanical cleaning;
 Manual derusting.

The Contractor should have the required material at his disposal to clean the surfaces to
be coated thoroughly in accordance with the preparation methods regardless of the form
or the condition of such surfaces. The cleaning devices that might be damaged during the
surface preparation shall be screened off by the Contractor.

7.2 Sandblasting

Before beginning cleaning by blasting, the person carrying out the work will take the
following measures:

 Clear the steel surface of oil and/or grease;

 Ensure that each flange collar (section where the sealing is applied) is properly
screened off against the blasting and the subsequent works;
 Check that no blasting grains can act into the pipes during this process. Any
openings not sealed off must be screened off;
 Where there are valves, regulators and other devices, the manufacturer's
identification plate will be dismantled so that all surfaces can be treated. The plate
will then be put back again.
 Screen off all non-metal structures such as rubber where there is a filter;
 With valves, operators and other devices, care should be taken to ensure that no
metal filings or paint get into the apparatus:

 STANDARD SPECIFICATION DOCNO: VPC-SS-PI-0008
FOR PAINTING Rev No : 00

 The OWNER reserves the right to carry out part or all of these works himself.

To prevent rust forming quickly as the result of humidity on the blasted surface, cleaning
by blasting may only be carried out when the temperature of the steel surface is at least
3°C higher than the dew-point of the ambient air.

Blasting may not be carried out if the relative degree of humidity exceeds 80%. The
choice of the type of blasting medium used depends on local circumstances such as the
possible presence of gas and the material to be blasted.

The abrasive to be used must conform to the local low i.e. it may contain no carbon and
less than 1% free silicon dioxide. The Sa 3 will always be requested and must at least
reach Sa 2½ during the initial stage of the paintwork. For blasting followed by
metallization, the surface preparation degree to be achieved is always Sa 3. The degree
of cleanliness to be obtained will be inspected in accordance with the Swedish standard
SVENSK STANDARD ISO 8501-1-1988 SS 05.5900.

 Sa 3: surface blasted down to the bare metal; when the surface is inspected with
a magnifying glass, scale, rust and foreign bodies must be completely removed
and it should be possible to raise a metallic -shine on the treated surface.

 Sa 2 1/2: blasted very carefully. Scale, rust and foreign bodies must be removed
in such a way that anything left behind will only be visible as nuances (shading) or
strips.

The blast-cleaning will be carried out by means of compressed air free of water and oil.

After the blasting and before painting, the surface should be completely cleaned of
blasting material and so forth with a soft brush, a dry cloth or dry compressed air.

7.3 Mechanical cleaning

If sandblasting is not permitted or if the metal structures are not easily accessible for
blasting or blasting for one reason or another is technically unfeasible, mechanical
derusting can be used instead. With mechanical cleaning by means of chipping, rotating
steel brushes and sanding discs, a degree of cleanliness St. 3 should be reached.

St 3 : removal of the old paint layers of which the adhesion leaves something to be
desired and/or of which the paint layer no longer fulfills the requirements.

If parts are present that are so corroded that St 3 is difficult to achieve, this should be
notified to the OWNER representative prior to the start of the works.

N.B:
St. 3 : means removal of every old paint layer. Retouching means local polishing with St.
3 or Sa 3 followed by application of the desired painting system.

After mechanical cleaning, the surface should be made dust-flee with a cloth or a so
brush, washed with an organic solvent and thoroughly dried off with a dry cloth (e.g. with
1.1.1. Trichoroethane such as Solvethane, Chloroethene).

7.4 Manual Derusting

Manual derusting with the aid of scrapers. steel brushes, sandpaper etc. shall only be
permitted in exceptional cases for local repairs. Any deviation there from must be
requested from the OWNER/ OWNER 's Representative.

FORMAT NO. VPC-SS-PI-0008 R0 Copyright VCS Project – All rights reserved Page 8 of 28
 STANDARD SPECIFICATION DOCNO: VPC-SS-PI-0008
FOR PAINTING Rev No : 00

With manual derusting, a surface preparation degree St 3 must be obtained. The length
of the handles of the equipment used may not exceed 50 cm.

7.5 Preparation of a surface covered with a layer of paint in the workshop.

This layer is in general applied by the manufacturer, for example, on valves, regulators
etc. Layers of this kind will be checked for their proper adhesion in accordance with ASTM
D 3359, method A (Standard Test Method for measuring adhesion by tape test). The
adhesion should be at least.

If the paint layer shows less adhesion or is incompatible with the rest of the system it
should be completely removed. If the paint layer is not removed, the Contractor accepts
it in the state in which the coating is found and the guarantee remains in force. The
adhesion does not have to be examined if system 63 has already been applied in the
workshop on behalf of the OWNER.

The Contractor, who must provide for the protection on the construction site, must
therefore obtain the information regarding the treatment of the surface and the quality of
the paint that was used and must, moreover, examine the adhesion of the layer on the
construction site, the percentage of damage and weathering as well as the value of the
preparation of the surface in the workshop together with the thickness thereof that must
be supplemented if necessary.

a) Galvanized surface

Galvanized surfaces, both old and new will be carefully roughened up. Every
foreign body (concrete splatters, chalk marks, grease and oil stains, etc.) will be
removed. Thereafter, rub the surfaces with abundant water and, if necessary, with
cleaning products.

To this end, nylon brushes will be used for every kind of dirt as well as for
removing zinc salt residue. Thereafter, the surfaces will be treated in accordance
with system 21. Where the zinc layer is lacking, it will be derusted manually to a
degree of cleanliness St 3, after which a primer coat will be applied in accordance
with system 22.

b) Metallized surfaces treated with an impregnation layer

 degrease with the desired degreasing product:

 Clean under high pressure or with a product prescribed by the paint supplier.
If the paint layer adheres well and is applied on a clean base, the painting system
described may be continued. If the percentage of damage and weathering does not
exceed 5 % m. retouching may be considered. These partial repairs will be carried out.

If on the other hand, the percentage of damage does exceed 5 %/m or if the layer
applied in the workshop comes loose the Contractor must draw the attention of the
OWNER to this and carry out the complete application system.

7.6 Preparation of surfaces covered with earlier paint layers that show different
degrees of weathering.

If the surfaces do not show deep weathering limited to the spread of rust by small pitted
areas or non-penetrative rust in spots, it will very often be sufficient to clean the surfaces
with abrasives or with an abrasive disc, then to rub them down with steel wool, remove
the dust and wash off. If thick rust appears, in spots, scale rust and active rust canker,
this should be removed with needle hammers or stripped away directly by blasting,
removing the dust and washing oft.

 STANDARD SPECIFICATION DOCNO: VPC-SS-PI-0008
FOR PAINTING Rev No : 00

7.7 Preparation of concrete or cement plaster surfaces

Remove unsound paint layers and loose components with scrapers, blades or rotating
steel brushes. Thoroughly clean the entire surface with water containing ammonia.
Thoroughly remove moss, algae and fungal growths. Where these growths have been
removed, treat the area with a fungicide in accordance with the instructions for use.

Once the entire area is completely dry, brush off the dead residue of moss, algae and
fungus with a hard brush. In the case of reinforcement steel that has been laid bare,
remove as rust, dust and grease as possible and treat with a printer coat. When painting
concrete surfaces, they must first be checked for cracks. Cracks larger than 0.3 mm must
be repaired with an appropriate system in accordance with the type and extent of the
repairs (e.g. injection with epoxy mortar). Repair damage such as cracks and bursts to
concrete parts with a two-component mortar or preferably with micro-mortars. Finally
check the alkalinity of the surface with the aid of litmus paper and neutralize it if
necessary.

7.8 Use of solvents

It is sometimes necessary to use solvents when the surfaces to be painted are streaked
with grease or oil. In this case a suitable organic solvent should be applied. The operation
should be carried out with the aid of clean brushes or rags and clean solvent.

All the legal specifications in connection with solvents etc. must be adhered to. The
OWNER/OWNER's Representative will be informed in advance of any toxicity or
flammability. All measures must be taken to prevent any risk of fire and to nick out any
possibility of poisoning (ventilation). The Contractor will provide drip collectors to keep
the environment free of pollution.

7.9 Condition of the metal after stripping

The Contractor must call in a representative of the OWNER/OWNER's representative or of

the Approved supervisory Body responsible for checking the condition of the metal during
stripping and informing the OWNER/OWNER's representative immediately of any damage
that he might have noticed.

 Deep corrosion of the plates - rivets - bolts

 Faulty welding
 Fittings that appear to be dangerous because of their age.

7.10 Removing coating from surface pipelines

The Contractor must have the equipment necessary for the removal of asphalt from the
pipe without damaging the latter (scratching, impact, etc,). The Contractor undertakes to
carry out the work in accordance with an approved procedure.

8.0 METALLISATION

8.1 Applying the metallization

Metallization must be carried out in accordance with ISO 2063,

Metallization is carried out as rapidly as possible after blasting in order to limit corrosion
of the pipes (max. 3 hours later). With metallization, a surface preparation degree Sa 3 is
compulsory. The roughness of the blasted surfaces should be from 25 to 50µ R Max.

 The metallizing is always carried out on dry parts in good weather conditions
(maximum

FORMAT NO. VPC-SS-PI-0008 R0 Copyright VCS Project – All rights reserved Page 10 of 28
 STANDARD SPECIFICATION DOCNO: VPC-SS-PI-0008
FOR PAINTING Rev No : 00

relative humidity 80 %);

 For metallization, a wire composed of 85 % zinc and 15 % aluminum with a minimum

guaranteed degree of purity of 99.5 % is used (subject to other specifications). The
application thereof is always carried out in accordance with the conditions of the
manufacturer and may at all times be submitted to the OWNER’s representative.

 The sealant should be applied maximum 3 hours alter metallization.

 The sealant must be thinned and applied as per the present specifications. A visual
inspection whereby the sealant completely covers the metallization will suffice here.

 When evaluating the metallization, a negative deviation from the minimum coating
thickness, to 80 µ for 20% of the measurements will be permitted.

9.0 CARRYING OUT THE PAINTWORK

9.1 Conditions for carrying out paintwork

Painting may not be carried out in unsuitable conditions.

All preparatory work and painting may only he carried out in dry weather and at a
minimum temperature of 10C, except for special eases requested by the OWNER's
Representative.

Unless otherwise stipulated in the specifications of the paint supplier, application of the
paint is forbidden if it is forecast that the temperature will fall to below 0C before the
paint is dry. The temperature of-the surface to be painted must be at least 3°C higher
than the dew point of the ambient air. Application of the paint is also not permitted if
there is a danger that the coat of paint will not be dry before dew or condensation sets in.

The work must be stopped:

 If the temperature of the surface to be painted is higher than that described by the
supplier.

 In rain, snow, mist or fog or when the relative humidity is higher than 80 %.

Coats that have not yet dried and have been exposed to frost, mist, snow or rain and
might thereby be damaged must be removed after drying and the surfaces must be
repainted at the expense of the Contractor.

Working in direct sunlight or in hot weather must be avoided,

The first coat of paint must be applied maximum 3 hours after the preparation of the
surface of the relative humidity of the air is between 50% and 80%. This time span may
be increased to 6 hours if the relative humidity is less than 50%. In all cases, the
preparation of the surface must exhibit degree Sa 3 and at the very least the appearance
of degree Sa 2 ½ at the time of painting.

The coats of paint may only be applied on carefully cleaned surfaces that must be dry and
free of grease and dust.

9.2 Special conditions

Painting may be carried out when the Contractor can be sure that the instructions of the
paint supplier have been scrupulously followed with regard to the parameters in the
following (non-exhaustive) list:

 Ambient temperature.

 Surface temperature.

 Relative humidity.

 Dew point.

 Drying times.

The Contractor must in this respect be able to produce the instructions for the paint on
the site. The OWNER/CONSULTANT will guarantee 100% supervision in this regard during
the execution of the work.

In addition, the paintwork may only be carried out to a minimum ambient temperature of
5°C and/or to a maximum relative degree of humidity of 85 %. Application of the paint is

1.9.4 Precautions to be taken

Neither the environment of the site nor the marking labels of devices may be covered
with paint and they must be kept free of paint splashes. To this end, it is advisable to use
removable masking tape.

Paint splashes, leaks, etc. on any adjacent installations such as measuring apparatus,
valves, pipes. Sources of light, insulation, heat insulators, walls, concrete, etc, must
immediately be wiped up and the damage repaired before the paint is dry.

Otherwise, the OWNER will be obliged to have the cleaning carried out at the expense of
the Contractor. The paint recipient will only be opened at the time of use (unless
otherwise specified by the manufacturer).

The product will be mixed in the recipient with the aid of suitable tools and thus
homogenized.

1.9.5 Method of application

Normally, three methods of application will be used on the construction site for the paint
products. i.e. with a brush, with a roller or with a spray gun.

 The brush method makes it possible to obtain good penetration of the paint over
irregularities in the metal.

 Only this method will be used for application of the base coats, for retouching and for
protrusions, welded areas, riveted joints or bolted joints:

 The roller method may be used on large flat surfaces for the intermediate and topcoats.

 The spray gun method must be used in accordance with the instructions of the
manufacturer and carried out by qualified personnel.

The Contractor must guarantee that all safety measures have been taken for such work.
The spray gun method may only he used on site for places that arc difficult to reach with
the brush. In this case, a request must be made to the OWNER/ OWNER's Representative
for a deviation.

All paintwork will be carried out with good brushes or rollers that are suitable for the type
of paint being used and for the form of the material to be painted and fitted with short
handles. The maximum length of the brush and roller handles will be 50 cm; longer
handles may only be used for places that are absolutely inaccessible. The maximum width
of a brush will be 13 cm.

1.9.6 Application of the coating

Application of the paint will be carried out in accordance with best practice in order to
obtain a homogeneous and continuous layer. The OWNER or the Approved Supervisory
body demands that painting of a layer will only be started after acceptance by them of
the surface preparation or of the previous layer of paint.

The layers of paint must have a uniform thickness. They must he spread in such a way
that all concave parts are dried out and that the surface is completely covered and has a
glossy appearance without leaving brush marks and without exhibiting bubbles, foam,
wrinkles, drips, craters, skins or gums that arise from weathered paint,

Each layer must have the color stipulated in the tables of the present specifications, which
clearly differs from the previous layer, taking account of the Color of the top layer, all of

FORMAT NO. VPC-SS-PI-0008 R0 Copyright VCS Project – All rights reserved Page 25 of 28
 STANDARD SPECIFICATION DOCNO: VPC-SS-PI-0008
FOR PAINTING Rev No : 00

which for the purpose of being able to identify the number of coats and their order of
sequence. If the color of the coats is not mentioned in the tables the color difference in
consecutive coats must, if possible, he at least 100 RAL. The color of the top layer is
given in the table.

The coating power should be such that the underlying layer is not visible. Only 1 layer per
day may be applied, unless otherwise specified by the OWNER or the Approved
Supervisory Body.

The drying times prescribed by the paint manufacturer must be strictly observed in
relation to the environmental conditions before proceeding with the application of the
next layer.

The dry coating thickness indicated in the description of the paint systems are minimum
thickness. In this connection, the Contractor is obliged to contact the paint manufacturer
and conform to his guidelines. The Contractor must respect the thickness specified by the
supplier.

1.9.7 Transporting treated items

In the case of works being carried out in a workshop, the metal structures will be
surrounded by ventilated contraction film that prevents damage during transportation.
This film may only be applied after complete polymerization of the paint.

1.10 GROUND-LEVEL TRANSITION POINT

1.11 Polyester protection system

The Contractor will provide system 02 over the entire length of the pipes above ground
and below ground and up to a height of 20 cm and a depth of 40 cm. perpendicular to the
ground level mark. In each case, he must ensure that the jointing below the asphalt is in
good condition and assures' faultless adhesion. He will apply the following products over
the entire surface area, prepared in accordance with is Sa 3:

1) The primer of system 01.

2) Reinforced polyester ± 20 cm above the ground level marker and ± 5 cm on the

asphalt cleaned beforehand (application of reinforced polyester is carried out in
accordance with the work method prescribed by the manufacturer). Moreover, in
the case of PE, in contrast to asphalt, he will apply a polygon primer to PE
immediately before applying the reinforced polyester.

3) He will then apply the other coats of system 01a to the surface section and thus
cover the reinforced polyester with about 5 cm.

4) For new constructions, the polygon primer will be applied to PE and then
subsequently processed as described under point 2.

1.11.1 USE OF SCAFFOLDING

Mounting, maintenance and dismantling of scaffolding for carrying out adaptation and/or
paintwork to surface gas pipes or gas transport installations in use;

 The Contractor will specify the cost of scaffolding in the price list.

 The supplementary rental price for delays attributable to the Contractor will be
charged to him:

FORMAT NO. VPC-SS-PI-0008 R0 Copyright VCS Project – All rights reserved Page 26 of 28
 STANDARD SPECIFICATION DOCNO: VPC-SS-PI-0008
FOR PAINTING Rev No : 00

 In his price quotation the Contractor should present the OWNER with diagrams of the
scaffolding that he intends to install for carrying out the works of the OWNER.

1.12 QUALITY CONTROLS AND GUARANTEE

1.12.1 The Contractor is responsible for checking the weather conditions to ascertain whether
the paintwork can be carried out within the standard specifications.

The Contractor should have the required calibrated monitoring apparatus for this purpose
on site (with calibration certificates). The personnel who will have to use this apparatus
should have the training for this purpose.

The OWNER or his representative and possibly the approved supervisory body indicated
by the OWNER will maintain supervision during the works and inspect the works with
random checks. A daily report will be drawn up in relation to the department that
maintains supervision of these works.

The supplementary inspection and the supervision by the OWNER or the approved
supervisory body do not diminish in any way the liability of the Contractor. The proper
execution of the work and the materials used may be checked at any time.

1.12.2 Reference Surfaces

At the start of the works. The OWNER or the approved supervisory body will indicate a
few surfaces that the Contractor will prepare and cover in accordance with the recognized
method of operation under the inspection and to the satisfaction of all parties; the
OWNER or his representative, the approved supervisory body, the contractor and possibly
the paint manufacturer. These reference surfaces will serve as a point of comparison for
the good adhesion of the paint on the installations as a whole. The parties will together
work out a system for the identification of these surfaces in order to be able to monitor
the conditions of the coatings over time. If the paintwork on a section of the installations
is in a worse condition than the reference surfaces, the Contractor may be obliged to
treat these parts again.

1.12.3 Measures to be taken in the event of a dispute

If on delivery of the works no agreement can be reached between the Contractor and the
OWNER regarding the conformity of the works to the requirements of these specifications,
an Approved Supervisory Body will he Called in. The Approved Supervisory Body will then
carry out inspections' on site whereby the following assessment criteria wilt be used:

 The Swedish standards ISO 8501-1 1988 SS 05.5900 concerning the degree of
cleanliness of the areas derusted by blasting, by machine or by hand.

 The wet film thickness of the paint will be measured in accordance with ISO 2808 or
ASTM DI 212;

 The dry layer thickness of the film will be measured electronically, will complete
statistical information. in accordance will, ISO 2808 or ASTM D 1186.

 The thickness of each layer will be measured in accordance with ISO 2808. ASTM 4138
or DIN 50986.

 Adhesion tests will be carried out in accordance with ISO 2409. ASTM 3359 or DIN
53151.
