Temporary hydrostatic test header will be installed at Bojonegara and Cikande Station. Aat
Bojonegara Station, the header contains of 2 (two) bi-directional pigs. Second bi-di pig at the
back and first bi-di pig mounted with gauging plate at the front. The assembly of the pigs
including the position of gauging plate, guide disc, sealing disc and spacer shall refer to
Attachment no. 1. (Please revise it!)
Necessary connection with the filling pump, water tank, pressure gauges, and flushing hoses shall be
made in the launching and receiving ends.
As a minimum one pressure gauge capable of showing a reading of up to 15002000 psig and
temperature shall be installed at both test headers.
The cleaning, gauging and water filling operation shall begin with pumping of water (approximately 20 m3)
in the test section in front of the first pig for cleaning.
Launch the first pig by pumping 20-30 m3 of water behind the first pig (water filling). Air entrapped behind
of the pig inside Launcher shall be vented out through 2” valve by injecting with water.
Piipeline is to be cleaned using a combination of Bi-Di Pig (partial cleaning). Once the line has
been cleaned it will be gauged using an 558,14mm aluminiumaluminum plate installed on a Bi-
Dithe first pig, refer to 96% of Hot Bend inside diameter. (PTG to revise wording due to gauging
together with water filling) ??????
The first pig is a Bi-Di supported gauge plate pig. Extracted gauging pig should be carefully
inspected for line-induced damage and excess debris. Further line cleaning, repair, or gauging
pig runs may be required. Making necessary adjustments will enhance the probability of a
successful survey.
The Water Filling and Gauging Pigs shall be propelled at nominal speed of 1.6 up to 5.5 Km/hr.
The result of Cleaning and Gauginge Pig run shall be analyzed by the Employer/Engineer
together with Test Engineer after completing the hydrostatic test to evaluate the internal status of
the pipeline. After acceptance of the Gauging operation by the Employer/Engineer, Gauging
Plate shall be signed and a photograph of the plate shall be taken and attached to the Gauging
Report.
IN ASSOCIATION
WITH
A deformed, bend or damaged gauging plate shall be evidenced with a Caliper Pig run for further
accurate assessment.
“A deformed, bent or damaged pig shall be evidence of gauging pig run failure and the same
shall not be acceptable”. If dent is found after caliper pig examination, dent pipe shall be
replaced with pre-hydrostatic tested spool, Treatment for this joint is golden joint. Procedure shall
be refer to Tie-in Procedure and also
IifShould Bi-Di Pig become stuck in the line, a we will purpose another procedure. Contingency
Plan shall be conducted as per Employer/Engineer’s assessment together with Contractor.
Contingency Plan will be in details on separate sheets.
PTG shall describe how to fix if Bi-Di pig stuck in the pipeline????????????
Water Filling
The temporary test headers used end cap shall be loaded with two bidirectional pig. Refer to Attachment-
2 "Arrangement for Flushing and Water Filling".
The bi-directional pig will be an assembly of 2 guide discs and 4 sealing discs with total 6 spacers in
between the discs, 1st Pig is Bi-Di Pig combine with Gauging Plate.
Necessary connection with the filling pump, water tank, pressure gauges, and flushing hoses shall be
made in the launching and receiving ends.
As a minimum one pressure gauge capable of showing a reading of up to 1500 psig and temperature
shall be installed at both test headers.
The filling operation shall begin with pumping of water (approximately 20 m3) in the test section in front of
the pig for flushing.
Launch pig by pumping 20-30 m 3 of water behind the first pig. Air entrapped behind of the pig inside
Launcher shall be vented out through 2” valve by injecting with water.
Frequent venting shall be carried out at the launcher header at regular intervals to remove any air, which
may accumulate during filling.
Suitable backpressure (20-25 psi) shall be maintained at the receiver header by throttling the
valve on the header depending on the pipeline elevation.
Plug valves at down streamdownstream side of every Sectional Valves by pass line shall be
closed maintain back pressure (refer to Attachment 8). The columns of water ahead of the pig
shall be flushed out from the receiving end.
During the whole filling operation the valves at the receiving end test headers shall be throttled
suitably to maintain adequate backpressure and for controlled pig movement.
Open the 3/4” gate valve and the 6” downstream plug valve at by pass line to release air trap at
by pass line once the pig has traversed each Sectional Valves then close the 3/4” gate valve after
no air trap is confirmed to maintain the back pressure and also add temporary end cap 3/4”
(NPT) but make sure 3/4” valve gate isn’t block while pressure test..
Once the test section has been completely filled and a minimum pressure of 15 psig has been
achieved at the highest point, all valves in the receiver end shall be closed and the section will be
prepared for pressurization.
Note: Contractor shall commence a Water Sampling before and after Hydrostatic Test.
Thermal Stabilization
Once the test section has been completely filled and a minimum pressure 15 psi has been
achieved, thermal stabilization period shall be started. Using Pressure Gauge installed as well as
by Dead Weight Tester PTG to submit certificate !! shall check achieved pressure at the highest
point. Temperature probe shall be installed at 433 locations (KP 0, KP16 and KP32) to measure
the pipe and soil temperature at each pipe end of launching and receiving site, and in the middle

The probe measuring pipe temperature shall be installed by cutting a small portion (a little bigger
than the probe tip) of the coating from the pipe, polishing the exposed portion and fixing the
probe to the pipe with quick setting epoxy ensuring firm contact between the probe and the pipe.
The soil probe shall be poked into the earth junction to the pipe.

shall be adhered to at all times:
• The pig traps must never be opened without checking the trap valve positions and ensuring no
pressure is present by checking the pressure gauge and opening trap vents.
• The traps and their piping systems are to be supported and restrained to prevent any
movement during pigging.
• All flexible hoses are to be restrained to prevent movement, with whip lash protection installed
on each joint.
• All hoses and equipment are to be inspected and be in good condition prior to applying
pressure.
• Always checked that no low pressure or unauthorized fittings/instruments have been used in
the rig up or system.
• All items of equipment containing pressure are to be clearly marked and the areas barrier to
prevent unauthorized access.
IN ASSOCIATION
WITH
• Piping and connections must never be opened without checking the system valve positions
