WELCOME
AEn provides the attendees the agenda topics. These general topics
will be discussed during the project meetings required for this project.
At the start of the meeting the discussion points will be settled by the
attendees. In this meeting we decided to discuss mainly about the
question list which was been sent by ABl on February 26 th 2013 with
respect to the scope of supply document.
APPROVAL PREVIOUS MINUTES OF MEETING
This is not applicable because of the fact that this concerns the first
official project meeting.
HEALTH SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT
Note March 5 th 2013: Within our project team we asked our HSE
coordinator to draw up a HSE document which will be used during the
detailed engineering phase. In this document we will describe the HSE
aspects concerning the early production unit.
DETAIL ENGINEERING
Electrical and Instrumentation
In the morning on March 4 th 2013 MPa and GWi discussed with GDF
team members about the Electrical and Instrumentation part of this
project. For this meeting we will draw up separate minutes. MPa
mentioned briefly the highlights of this E&I meeting. The project
location is changed from Römerberg in Börger 7a. The new location
differs from the location in the South part of Germany, namely:
there is an additional pump in the well required for getting out the
crude oil
the crude oil requires heating instead of cooling
well pressure is considerably lower
it is expected that the parameters of both wells show large
differences.
4-2 Question list ABl regarding the scope of supply document
Paragraph 2.2.1 Meteorology and Environment: GDF request a socalled
presence button when the truck is loading. The operator should
every minute press the mentioned button for not interrupting the
loading process. This change should be included during the detail
engineering phase.
4-3 Paragraph 2.2.2 Process data:
The design temperature of the unit of 90 °C is correct stated in the
document. The maximum well head temperature for the location
Börger is however 35 °C.
4-4 Paragraph 8.2 Choke and shutdown valves:
If possible the choke valve should be implemented with a hand wheel
for manual operation (if possible). This adjustment should after
approval be included during the detail engineering phase.
Contact valve supplier about the possibilities and potential additional
cost.
4-5 GDF will provide a template for a datasheet with respect to the choke

valve.
MOM-5 4-6 The choke and shut down valve are nitrogen or instrument dry air
4-3-13
operated. Cofely recommends GDF to do the regular operation of these
valves with the existing hydraulic unit (HWCU). ABl will investigate the
possibilities and will inform Cofely about GDF’s point of view regarding this
topic.
MOM-5 4-7 Paragraph 8.3 Heat Exchanger

4-3-13 For the location Börger are instead of cooling down the oil heating
facilities required, as mentioned before the crude oil has now of
temperature of 35 °C. Cofely will investigate heating and cooling
facilities combined on one skid. With this approach the EPU will be
suitable for a wider variety of wells. This change should after approval

be included during the detail engineering phase.
4-8 Paragraph 8.4 Seperator
GDF requires a so-called sight glass for phase visibility. This sight glass
gives an operator immediately information about the separation
process in the tank. The glass should be installed with double flanges.
This change should after approval be included during the detail
engineering phase.
4-9 GDF wants to equip the seperator with sample points for oil, gas and
water. This change should after approval be included during the detail
engineering phase.
4-10 The seperator should be prepared for roof extension. This change
should after approval be included during the detail engineering phase.
4-11 Cofely request ABl to provide GDF’s specifications about protective
coating. Our scope of supply includes to accommodate several
mechanical parts of the EPU with a protective coating. Stainless steel
parts will of course not be painted. Galvanizing elements is not
included in our scope.
4-12 Paragraph 8.5 Knock out drum: The High/high and Low/low alarms
are not shown in the P&ID. During the meeting we concluded together
that these signals are not required.
4-13 Paragraph 8.6 Storage tanks: GDF wants to know the specifications of
internal coating in the square storage tanks.
Cofely will provide on short notice the specifications of this storage
tank. Furthermore we mention that the datasheets will also contain
the required information. GDF normally uses a coating called
Permatex. What are the possibilities if GDF demands this coating in
the storage tanks?
4-14 GDF mentioned during the meeting that with respect to the storage
tanks we need to keep in our mind the pour point. The pour point of
crude oil is in fact the lowest temperature at which it becomes semi
solid and loses its flow characteristics. During the meeting we
concluded that we need to measure the temperature in the tanks and
also it was suggested to measure the temperature of the water from
the gasoline fuel heated boiler. In the detail engineering phase Cofely
will give this item the necessary attention.
4-15 Low and high pressure protection storage tanks. The storage tanks are
atmospheric. High pressure in the tank will be controlled by the flame
arrestor. For the location Börger is it not allowed to let the gas escape
into the atmosphere. This gas should for instance be lead back to the
knock out drum. This change should after approval be included during
the detail engineering phase.
4-16 Paragraph 8.7 Closed Gas Flare: Cofely confirms that until the flare
the process piping is accommodate with trace heating and insulation.
GDF request a closed gas flare with a so-called optimized burner head.
This item will be processed in the datasheet of the closed gas flare.
4-17 The flare drum should be equipped with a high level indication for the
water in this tank. In other words a water lock will stop the gas from
flowing to the gas flare which is not a desirable situation. This change

4-18 8.8 Spoolpieces interconnecting pipelines. The connections of the
pipelines should be flanged with compensators. The compensators will
take care of the possible height differences which could occur during
the site erection. During the detail engineering one and another will be
embedded.
4-19 8.8 HG Adsorber: Cofely confirms that the HG filter is equipped with a
with active coal adsorption.
8.9 Sand Cather: Cofely confirms that for filtering sand out of the oil a
double sand catcher will be installed.
4-20 8.10 Evacuation pumping system:
4-21 GDF request to install on the suction side of the pumps a so-called run
drain dry safety. Furthermore a so-called presence button when the
truck is loading is required. The operator should every minute press
the button for not interrupting the loading process.
4-22 Truck loading. Only on truck can be loaded in the same time.

4-23 Connection. The connection on the loading truck is 3” or 4”. ABl will
provide Cofely with the details of this connection.
ABl Week 11
4-24 The loading capacity of one truck is 30m 3 . The loading rate of 90 m3/h Detail
gives a flow velocities of 5 m/sec. This flow velocity is to high and
should be kept, if possible below, 2,5m/sec. For double walled loading
hoses, DN80 inner hose, the flow velocity shall not exceed 4 m/s. Flow
rate: The design flow rate must not exceed 4m/s.
ENG.
4-25 The loading truck has also pump facilities. We discussed to implement
a by-pass connection for having the ability to load the truck without
the use of the unloading skid. During the detail engineering one and Detail
another will be embedded.

4-26 GDF request Cofely to give more information of the pumps which are
selected during the tender phase.
MPa 3-11-13
4-27 Loading arm. Loading arms are chosen as connection between the Detail
pumps and loading truck. We have to clarify with TÜV if we need an
impermeable surface for the loading facility. Otherwise it is perhaps
better and cheaper to go for double walled hoses with leak detection.
ENG.
4-28 The unloading skid the should be provided with a drip pan and leak Detail
detection. This change should after approval be included during the
detail engineering phase.

required oil circulation is achieved.

4-32 GDF request for more information regarding the fuel heated boiler. MPa 3-11-13
