A. This Job Specification covers the minimum requirements for
pressure lubrication and control/hydraulic oil systems for
mechanical equipment for general refinery, process plant and
electric power plant services. The intent is to permit use of
vendor-standard designs to the fullest degree consistent with the
Purchaser=s minimum requirements for such services.

B. Compliance with this Job Specification shall not relieve the
Vendor of responsibility for furnishing equipment of proper
design, construction and scope of supply, fully suitable for all
specified operating conditions.

C. All exceptions, comments and clarifications to this Job
Specification shall be addressed in the proposal, by specific
reference to the applicable article.

D. Should conflicts exist between other documents and this
specification the following order of precedence shall govern,
shown in declining order of authority:

a - Purchase Order
b - Material Requisition (including Data Sheets)
c - This Job Specification and other Job Specifications stated
in the Material Requisition or Purchaser Order documents
d - Venezuelan standards (including by this term codes,
regulations, decrees and the like) referenced in the above
documents
e - IEC and other industrial and non-Venezuelan national
standards referenced in the above documents
f - Vendor=s proposal

The Vendor shall promptly give written notice to the Purchaser of
all apparent such contradictions at the time of their discovery,
and material purchasing and manufacturing action shall
subsequently not proceed until the Purchaser=s decision has been
received. The more-stringent requirement shall apply in the event
of conflicts between equal-grade documents. Silence on the part
of superior documents shall not affect the applicability of
subordinate documents.

II. TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

A. General

1. The equipment shall be complete within the scope of supply
boundaries specified, including all components, systems and
features required for the specified service(s) and for the
characteristics of the Vendor=s design, whether or not such
items are individually cited in the technical specifications
or the Purchase Order and whether or not the terms
"standard" or "Vendor standard" are used.

JOB SPEC 4478-39A5
GENERAL PURPOSE PAGE 3

DATE May 14, 1997


The system shall be designed to meet all the operating
requirements of the equipment served, and shall be suitable
for unsheltered outdoor operation when exposed to coastal
salt spray and heavy rain.

2. The lubrication system shall be entirely skid-mounted,
unless mounting directly on the baseplate of the equipment
served is accepted in the Material Requisition.

3. The experience list included in the proposal for the
equipment shall include at least two (2) examples of each of
the types/models proposed, equal to or greater than the
proposed equipment as regards to the principal operational
parameters (e.g. flow rate, pressure) and manufactured at
the same factory as applies to the equipment proposed. Both
of such units shall have accumulated a minimum of two years
of successful field operation. No new design or unproven
(per the above criteria) equipment components shall be
provided, except as a proposal-stated exception agreed to by
the Purchaser in the Purchase Order. Alternative designs
may be quoted to utilize Vendor-standard equipment and
assist in meeting this experience requirement, subject to
the same exception and approval process.

4. Unit responsibility refers to technical responsibility for
all characteristics and components of the equipment, whether
considered individually or in terms of interactions (e.g.
driver and driven equipment arrangement, power requirements,
speed, direction of rotation), including finishes, testing,
preparation for shipment and documentation, irrespective of
whether or not the vendor having unit responsibility is the
manufacturer of the covered components. The vendor
providing the rotating equipment served by the lube oil
system shall have unit responsibility, unless stated
otherwise in the Material Requisition.

5. Components shall be mounted with clearances adequate to
permit easy access during operation. Valved vent, drain,
and bypass piping shall be furnished to permit replacing,
draining, cleaning and refilling of idle cooler and filter
components while the system is in operation.

6. The following definitions apply:

Purchaser: a person or entity that purchases the equipment.
The Purchaser may be the final Client, the Engineering
Company or the General Contractor.

General Contractor: person or entity that is responsible for
the design and construction of a complex plant in accordance
with contractual clauses and local regulations.

JOB SPEC 4478-39A5
GENERAL PURPOSE PAGE 4
LUBE OIL SYSTEMS REV 2
DATE May 14, 1997


Engineering Company: person or entity that is responsible
for the study, the definition and the follow-up of the
equipment supply. The Engineering Company may be the final
Client, or the General Contractor.

7. All equipment shall be suitable for continuous duty in an
outdoor installation in a coastal salt spray environments
with frequent heavy rains. No roof is provided. Ambient
condition ranges are stated in the Material Requisition.

(2) 8. In order to comply with Venezuelan requirements concerning
exposure of plant personnel to noise, individual noise
sources shall be limited, where possible, to the following
sound pressure levels:

a. 85 dBA at 1 meter from the source of the noise, unless
approved by Owner. The Vendor shall achieve this
condition as a contractual requirement for the
equipment in its basic state (i.e. with no special
sound treatment provisions). If meeting this criteria
will result in excessive costs, then the Vendor is
requested to do both of the following:

- State in the proposal an exception to the
specification in this respect.
- Quote an option for the achieving of this
condition, based on descending cost associated
with noise levels identified in Item b, below.

b. It should be noted that "8 hr. time weighted average"
exposure to sound pressure levels in excess of 85 dBA
may require audiometric testing or personnel use of
individual "hearing protective devices". Therefore,
in-plant noise shall be limited to 85 dBA, unless
approved by the Owner. [Note that noise levels of up
to 88 and 91 dBA are considered acceptable where
exposure levels are less than 4 and 2 hours,
respectively per Covenin 1565:1995].

The equipment will thereafter be acceptable only with the
Purchaser=s approval in its basic state or (as decided by
the Purchaser) with purchase of the noise abatement option
quoted. All noise abatement measures involving lagging or
enclosures shall be in conformance with Job Specification
4478-39A11.

The maximum free-field noise level shall also in no case
exceed 120 dB(A), for the measurement locations cited above,
for noise from infrequently encountered and emergency events
such as the opening of relief, vent and blowoff valves.
Noise abatement measures shall, in all cases, be included in
the base bid if and when needed to comply with this
criterion.
JOB SPEC 4478-39A5
GENERAL PURPOSE PAGE 5

DATE May 14, 1997



The Vendor shall be responsible for designing and
implementing any modifications required to reduce the noise
to a level authorized by local regulations at the place of
use if the above-described 85 dB(A) basic-state commitment
is made in the proposal but not achieved onsite, or if the
quoted option is purchased but fails to produce the required
effect, or if the aforementioned 120 dB(A) requirement is
not achieved onsite.

9. This specification requires compliance with Venezuelan
codes, standards and regulations which may be applicable.
This includes the Venezuelan ASafety and Health Law for Work
Environment@ of July 1986, as well as the AIndustrial
Safety and Health Programs, Covenin 2260-88" of 1988.
Regarding Coven in 200 see article II.A.10 below.

10. Motors, electrical components and electrical systems shall
be in compliance with Covenin 200, which is the national
electric code of Venezuela. This standard is largely the
same as the 1990 edition of standard 70 of the National Fire
Prevention Association (NFPA) at the time of this writing,
including recognizing only Division-based hazardous area
classifications. It is anticipated however that, at the
time of equipment purchase, Covenin 200 will have been
revised to also recognize the Zone-based hazardous
atmosphere classifications of the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) in accordance with the
1996 edition of NFPA 70. The Zone-based approach used for
all hazardous atmosphere classifications specified in
Material Requisitions shall therefore not be interpreted as
superseding Covenin 200 in any way. That is, the equipment
shall retain compliance with Covenin 200 while, when a
hazardous area classification is specified in the Material
Requisition, also being suitable, tested and approved for
the IEC-based designation used.

All electrical appurtenances (e.g. heaters, switches,
transmitters, pushbuttons) and motors shall be approved for
the specified area classification by an internationally
recognized testing laboratory, and such approval documents
shall be among the contract data provided to the Purchaser.
Such items shall also have a permanently-attached
nameplate, identifying the classification and temperature
category specified as well as bearing a mark signifying
approval by the aforementioned internationally recognized
testing authority.

Electric motors shall be in compliance with Job
Specification 4478-38A13 for induction motors, and with
4478-38A13 as supplemented by 4478-38A12 for synchronous
motors. All electrical equipment, whether associated with a
motor or not, shall also be as specified in Job Spec 4478-
JOB SPEC 4478-39A5

LUBE OIL SYSTEMS REV 2
DATE May 14, 1997


38A13 regarding utilization voltages (ref. article IV.C.3),
enclosures= degree of protection (ref. articles V.B.1-3)
and supplemental hazardous atmosphere compliance
requirements (ref. Part 2). Note that this last item
includes the requirement (ref. article XIII.C 2 of Job Spec
4478-38A13) that all electrical instrumentation located in a
hazardous-classified area be intrinsically safe with the use
of barriers or have the alternative means of protection
specified.


11. The most recent editions of referenced standards that have
been published at the time of purchase order execution shall
apply in all cases.

12. All components classifiable as pressure vessels under
Section VIII of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code
shall bear an ASME stamp certifying compliance with this
code or a stamp certifying compliance with a Purchaser-
approved foreign code.

13. Corrosion allowances shall be a minimum of 1.6m for piping
and 3.2mm for other pressurized components, unless stated
differently in the Material Requisition.

B. Oil Reservoir

1. The oil reservoir shall be sealed to prevent entrance of
dirt and water. Top surface openings shall be raised at
least one inch, and shall be gasketed. A vent shall be
provided, which shall include a breather or separation
system to prevent the discharge of liquid oil and visible
oil mist. This feature shall include a blower, if required
to prevent excessive oil backpressure from being
experienced.

2. To ensure complete drainage, the reservoir bottom shall
slope to a low-point drain connection. A manway or
sufficient quantity of 6-inch minimum size handhole openings
shall be provided, to permit inspection and cleaning of all
interior compartments. Pump-suction connections shall be
located near the high end of the reservoir bottom. All oil
return lines shall enter the reservoir above the maximum
operating level and away from the pumps= suction
connections. Each relief valve return shall be piped
separately back to the reservoir.

3. An oil level gauge or dipstick shall be provided, and shall
be positioned and marked to indicate the normal, minimum and
maximum operating levels.

4. The minimum retention time shall be four minutes, based upon
normal oil flow and total reservoir volume below the minimum
JOB SPEC 4478-39A5
GENERAL PURPOSE PAGE 7
LUBE OIL SYSTEMS REV 2
DATE May 14, 1997


operating level and at the level at which the pump begins to
lose suction. This figure shall be defined in the proposal.

5. The reservoir shall be sized to provide rundown capacity at
least 10% larger than the amount of oil contained in all
components, bearing housings and Vendor-furnished piping
that drain back to the reservoir.

6. The interior of the reservoir shall be descaled and rust-
protected by the Vendor=s standard procedure, provided that
is suitable for the transportation method, jobsite climatic
conditions, and idle time on-site specified.

7. A removable, stainless steel, steam-heating element external
to the oil reservoir or a thermostatically-controlled,
stainless steel-sheathed, electrical immersion heater, as
specified in the Material Requisition, shall be provided if
needed for heating the charge capacity of oil prior to
start-up at the minimum ambient air temperature specified in
the Material Requisition. The heating device shall have
sufficient capacity to heat the oil in the reservoir from
the specified minimum site ambient to the rotating
equipment=s required start-up temperature within 12 hours.

Electrical immersion heaters shall have a maximum power
density of 15 watts per square inch. Steam heating coils
shall be furnished with a manual steam inlet stop valve and
an automatic condensate trap, with the outlet piped to the
edge of the baseplate; and they shall be immersed in a
separate heat transfer oil beneath the lube oil chamber.
The heat transfer oil, in the latter case, shall be
resistant to coking at the chamber provisions accommodating
the thermal expansion without structural damage.

Equivalent heating provisions for maintaining proper rundown
tank temperature during operation shall also be provided, if
such a tank is present.

8. A grounding clip shall be welded to the reservoir, prior to
final cleaning of the reservoir interior.

9. A centrifuge-type slipstream oil conditioner shall be quoted
as an optional extra, when the main equipment train being
served is steam turbine-driven. The centrifuge package
shall be mounted integrally with the console.

C. Pumps

1. The oil system shall include a main oil pump and a standby
oil pump of equal performance, for each service (e.g. lube
oil versus hydraulic oil). Each pump=s capacity shall be
based on maximum system usage plus a minimum of 10 percent.
Maximum system usage shall include transient conditions.
JOB SPEC 4478-39A5
GENERAL PURPOSE PAGE 8
LUBE OIL SYSTEMS REV 2

periods. A Y-type strainer shall be provided in the suction
of positive displacement pumps.

4. A direct-acting pressure control valve with manual bypass
shall be provided, and shall be sized to maintain system
pressure even when both pumps are operating. The use of
safety pressure relief valve to continuously control oil
pressure is not acceptable.

The relief valve, if such is present, may open when starting
the standby pump with the main pump operating; but there
shall be no troublesome pressure dips, and it shall
immediately reclose without any operator intervention being
required.

5. Provisions for safe and damage-free power blackout shutdown
shall be included; and they are exclusively the
responsibility of the vendor having the unit responsibility.
Such provisions shall consist of a DC motor-driven
emergency lube oil pump whenever the equipment requires
post-shutdown turning to prevent bearing damage or rotor
bowing. The Vendor shall identify in the proposal the oil
rundown period and rotating machinery coast-down period if a
rundown tank system is used.

D. Oil Coolers

1. Twin coolers shall be provided, and shall be piped in a
parallel arrangement utilizing a continuous-flow transfer
valve. An exception is that, if oil-to-air cooling is
specified in the Material Requisition, a single cooler may
be used with the Purchaser=s approval. Each cooler shall
be sized to accommodate worst-case cooling load and water
supply temperature, while delivering oil no warmer than the
normal lube oil operating temperature of the machinery
served.

JOB SPEC 4478-39A5
GENERAL PURPOSE PAGE 9
LUBE OIL SYSTEMS REV 2
DATE May 14, 1997


2. Water-cooled coolers shall be of shell-and-tube
construction, with water on the tube side. The oil-side
operating pressure shall be higher than the water-side
operating pressure.

3. An automatic bypass shall be provided on the oil side of the
cooler, to achieve adequate temperature control. The Vendor
shall furnish the necessary control valve and piping, with
any instrumentation required.

4. Any project-specific material requirements will be stated in

coolers= fan systems shall be in compliance with Job
Specification 4478-32A5.

5. The minimum design pressure for coolers shall not be less
than the maximum operating pressure of the system, nor less
than the relief valve setting for positive displacement oil
pumps. The water side design pressure shall be suitable for
the specified cooling water pressure, but shall not be less
than 517 kPa (g). Coolers shall also be suitable for 150C
steam-out.

6. Design conditions shall, unless superseded in the Material
Requisition, be 1.5-2.4 mls velocity in tubes, 103 kPa
maximum pressure drop, and 10-17C temperature rise. The
fouling factor shall be as stated in the Material
Requisition, or shall be .00035 m
2
K/W water-side if no
value is specified in the Material Requisition.

E. Oil Filters

1. Twin 100 percent-sized full-flow oil filters shall be
furnished downstream of the cooler, and shall be piped in a
parallel arrangement utilizing a continuous-flow transfer
valve. Filter elements shall be easily replaced with filter
cases in place; and built-in lifters shall be included if
covers weigh more than 16 kg.

2. Filtration shall be no coarser than 10 microns nominal (i.e.
at least 90 percent efficiency for the life of the element,
for particles 10 microns in diameter or larger).

3. The pressure drop for clean filters shall not exceed 34 kPa
for normal flow at operating temperature. Cartridges shall
have a minimum collapsing differential pressure of 276 kPa.
Bypass relief valves are prohibited.

4. The minimum design pressure for filters shall not be less
than the maximum operating pressure of the system, nor less
JOB SPEC 4478-39A5

pressure alarm shall be furnished.

6. The transfer valve plug, if such a plug is present, shall be
of stainless steel material.

7. Filters for high-pressure control/hydraulic service shall be
provided separate from and with a finer degree of filtration
than those provided for lube oil service, if and as required
to prevent system malfunctioning. The Vendor shall provide,
for subsystems using finer filtration than is used for the
main lube oil filters, a quantity of spare elements
sufficient for the replacements that may be needed during
the first month of onsite operation, as the newly-
commissioned system becomes gradually purified. Twin
hydraulic oil filters are excused from the requirement for a
continuous-flow transfer valve, if the high pressure rating
causes such a device to not be commercially available. They
shall have in such cases, however, valving suitable for on-
line crossover and servicing.

F. Piping

5. The Vendor shall assume for all water services other than
demineralized water that the chlorides concentration is high
enough to preclude the use of materials subject to chloride
stress corrosion cracking.

III. INSPECTION AND TESTS

A. Inspection requirements will be stated in the Purchase Order and
Material Requisition, except for those cited below.

The Vendor shall provide at least five working days advance notice
for performance and, if applicable, NPSH testing, both of which
shall be witnessable by the Purchaser at no added charge.

B. Each pressure component and subassembly shall be hydrostatically
tested at 1 2 times its maximum allowable working pressure for at
least 30 minutes, to permit complete examination of parts under
pressure. Tests shall be repeated as necessary following any
repairs to correct leaks. These tests will be observed by the
Purchaser, if the Purchaser so elects after order, for which there
shall be no price adder.

Note, however that:

Pump pressure parts shall be hydrostatically tested with water at
ambient temperature, and at not less than 150% of the casing
design pressure but not less than 800 kPa(g).

Cooling jackets and piping shall be hydrostatically tested at 150%
of their design pressure but not less than 800 kPa(g).

C. The lube oil system shall be shop-run to test operation and to
achieve suitable-for-operation cleanliness. This test shall
involve the complete system, except that large oil-to-air coolers,
