The key objective of PTS is to ensure standard technical practice across the PETRONAS group. Compliance to PTS is compulsory for PETRONAS-operated facilities and Joint Ventures (JVs) where PETRONAS has more than fifty percent (50%) shareholding and/or operational control, and includes all phases of work activities. Contractors/manufacturers/suppliers who use PTS are solely responsible in ensuring the quality of work, goods and services meet the required design and engineering standards. In the case where specific requirements are not covered in the PTS, it is the responsibility of the Contractors/manufacturers/suppliers to propose other proven or internationally established standards or practices of the same level of quality and integrity as reflected in the PTS. In issuing and making the PTS available, PETRONAS is not making any warranty on the accuracy or completeness of the information contained in PTS. The Contractors/manufacturers/suppliers. shall censure accuracy and completeness of the PTS used for the intended design and engineering requirement and shall inform the Owner for any conflicting requirement with other international codes and technical standards before start of any work, PETRONAS is the sole copyright holder of PTS.

The CP current shall be supplied from a distributed sacrificial anode system. The CP system shall be designed for the full design life of the structure as a minimum, Prolonged field life may require extended structure life and should be given due consideration in CP design. ICCP systems shall not be used for new fixed offshore steel structures. However, ICCP system may be considered if the following conditions are met; i, An offshore structure is required to operate beyond its original design life, and li, The sacrificial anodes are depleted. In most cases, subsea corrosion of offshore structures is controlled solely by SACP. However, the use of SACP alone may not be effective when very high current demand or anode weights is required due to extreme seawater condition. Other corrosion protection methods e.g. protective coating should be considered to supplement the SACP system when such condition exist6 ‘CATHODIC PROTECTION FOR NEW FIXED rs 15.20.11 ‘OFFSHORE STEEL STRUCTURES.

Quality control during production of sacrificial anodes are provided in Annex B of the DNV RP 401. ‘The objective of the PAT is to ascertain the compliance of the anode material's electrochemical ‘capacity and closed circuit potential with the design data submitted by the Manufacturer. ‘The PAT shall be carried out by an independent test laboratory approved by Owner. Each test shall be carried out on two samples from different heat. The final product inspection of the ‘samples shall be witnessed by Owner or appointed representative. Results of both samples shall be acceptable for the material to be qualified. ‘The test samples shall be sectioned and examined for internal defects in accordance with ISO 15589-2 Owner may require RT to verify internal anode soundness and positioning of the anode A written test procedure shall be produced and approved by Owner. The procedure shall described the specific test set-up, method of making the required measurements, and sample cleaning methods, ‘2, ANODE DESIGN DATA The anode manufacturer shall submit the following data + the name of the manufacturer, the type and/or trade name of the anode material # the specification of the anode material; + the anode material's nominal chemical composition ranges; + afull chemical analysis ofthe test samples; + the manufacturing date and heat number ofthe test samples; + the anode material's nominal free corroding potential in mV versus SCE or Ag/AgC!; the anode material's maximum and minimum design current density in mA/cm?; + the anode material's nominal design current capacity in Ah/k. 3, TEST ENVIRONMENT The tests shall be performed using artificial seawater in accordance with ASTM D 1141 Sufficient volume of seawater shall be made available to avoid contamination with corrosion products produced during the test and to avoid changes in concentration due to evaporation.‘AG, TEST TEMPERATURE ‘The test temperature shall be determined as follows; ‘Type of Seawater Test Temperature Cold (Minimum temperature of < 5°C) sc Other seawater conditions 20°C Table Al: Seawater Test Temperature ‘The test solution temperature shall be thermostatically controlled. ‘AS. SAMPLE IDENTIFICATION A unique identification shall be provided for each sample with code e.g, by engraving on each sample. AG. CLOSED CIRCUIT POTENTIAL TESTS. The closed circuit potential tests shall be performed in accordance with ISO 15589-2 Annex € or NACE TMo190. The closed circuit potential criteria in accordance with Table 8 of !SO 15589-2 shall be met. Where testing is performed following the methods specified in NACE TMO190, the “2nd through last” criteria set forth in table A2 shall be met. The remaining criteria shall apply for tests at 5°C Period (Days) Potential Criteria 2nd through last | Mean value of readings equal to or more negative than -1070 mv” 3rd through last | Daily average equal to or more negative than ~1030 mv Oth through last | Positive shift less than 5 mV/day. Average potential < 15 mV more positive than average potential value of 6th thru 11th days Table A2: Acceptance Criteria for Al-Zn-In Anodes for Deep water Applications Note * Potential measured vs. SCE maintained at 24°C 4 3°C ‘AG.1 CURRENT CAPACITIY TESTThe current capacity tests shall be performed in accordance with ISO 15589-2 Annex E or NACE TM0190. The © For el acceptance criteria shall be as follows; lectrochemical testing in accordance with ISO 15589-2, Annex E, the current capacity shall be greater than the criteria set forth in Table 8 of ISO 15589-2. © Forel apply lectrochemical testing in accordance with NACE TM0190, the criteria in Table A3 shall Type Current Capacity ALZndn > 2425 Ach /kg (1100 Ahr /Ib) Zn 2 760 Ahr/kg (345 Achr/Ib) | Table A3: Acceptance Criteria for electrochemical testing in accordance with NACE TM0190 AT, TEST REPORT Test report shall be produced in two (2) copies which shall contain the following information as all design data as per Section A2 of this Appendix; the test procedures; the date and address of sample manufacturing; a description of sample preparation; the name and address of the test facilities; the name of the person responsible for the testing; the name of the Owner's representative who witnessed the test; 2 description and (if applicable) brand names and types of the test apparatus and ‘equipment used; all measured and calculated current density, potential and weight values; copies of relevant recorder charts or graphs (if applicable); the current density vs. potential graphs, the current density vs. time graphs and the potential vs. time graphs as described in the test procedures; ‘any other observations to support the conclusion; Conclusion from the test results in relation with the acceptance criteria as described above, The test report shall be signed by person responsible for the testing and, if applicable, by the Owner or appointed representative(s) who witnessed the test.
