SECTION 4 - SYSTEM PLANNINGAPPROACH

4.1. Principle for Application of Systems Planning

The general principles associated with application of the systems planning approach
arc outlined below:
a. Each area is broken down into a number of systems (see Attachment 1).
b. Each system comprising equipment and piping is defined on flow sheets and
numbered.
c. Each system comprises a variety of mechanical equipment items, e.g. vessels,
pumps, etc., and piping. In systems definition, account is to be taken of electrical
and control systems facilities.
d. For large systems, the system should be broken down into process sub-
systems, each sub-system forming a small process of its own (see Attachment
1). Similarly, where parts of a system have different RFC dates, the parts should
be defined as process sub-systems.
e. A tank farm can be broken down into sub-systems comprising blocks of tanks
(tanks in similar service; or tanks with the same chemical plus associated
piping; or tanks with similar need dates for operational use). Tanks will be
handled as equipment items within those systems which contain tanks.
f. Factory interconnecting piping is addressed in Part 3.
g. System hand over will be prioritized by Operations in order of
Commissioning priority.
h. A system as defined is capable of having useful commissioning work carried out
on it. Once a system is accepted by Operations, commissioning activities can
be immediately commenced, unless such activities are not compatible with
concurrent construction activities on adjoining systems, sub-systems and areas.
i. Utility services and process piping crossing battery limits will be defined as
separate systems per service.
j. For each system, a list is prepared of all equipment items which form part of it.
k. A standard checklist for each type of equipment will be utilized to check out
each item of equipment and the piping within a system. Equipment checkout
may precede system checkout.

SECTION 4 - SYSTEM PLANNINGAPPROACH

1. Each system will be declared mechanically complete following inspection and

checkout, and correction of Category 1 punch items. Acceptance will be
signified by Operations signing a "mechanical completion" certificate for that
system.
m. Operations become responsible for the safety of all personnel working on each
accepted system and all further work on an accepted system will be carried out
under permit, and subject to GPOS safety procedures.
n. Operations will progressively accept the whole area or process subsection,
system by system (see Attachment 2).
o. When the last system of area or process system has been accepted as
mechanically complete and all Category 2 punch items have been corrected,
the area or process system as a whole is declared as "Completion of MEI
Erection" by signing a "Completion of MEI Erection" certificate, by which
time all electrical facilities and control systems facilities will also have been
completed. The completion of electrical facilities and control systems facilities
are confirmed by the signing of separate completion certificates for the
respective facilities. The whole area or process system is then under the
control of Operations.
p. Where a "common facility" is divided into systems (e.g. within the Fiber line
area) it is implicit that these systems will have the same RFC date, and that the
control systems facilities and the electrical facilities will be completed by this
RFC date for the group of systems as a whole.
q. The accepted systems package is submitted by the commissioning manager
(CM) to the Project Group Manager (PM) who will transmit the package to
the respective area coordinator for review.
r. The PM will obtain Project agreement to the systems package, comprising
systems definition; priorities; required mechanical completion dates, which
may require changes to allow for construction constraints.
The PM will formally advise the CM of any required changes to the systems
package. The CM will advise Operations of the required changes to the
systems package which will be revised by Operations and re-submitted by the
CM to the PM

SECTION 4 - SYSTEM PLANNINGAPPROACH

s. Based on the finally approved systems definition, priorities and required

mechanical completion dates, the systems package will be fed into
Construction Planning via Projects, and into Operations Planning by the CM
t. When construction of a unit, or sub-section with its own RFC date, is
approximately 70% complete, construction progress and it's reporting will switch
from an area basis to a system basis, utilizing the agreed and approved systems
definition.
u. Projects will report progress by systems, for mechanical equipment and piping,
actual versus plan, and will provide feedback to Operations.
v. Area and process system RFC dates will be updated to reflect construction
progress.
w. The factory startup logic will be updated as required, by Operations.

4.2. Systems Approach for Factory Interconnecting Piping

a. Each "Out of Battery" interconnecting piping service will be defined as a sub-
system, and will comprise all OOB piping in that service which interconnects
two or more systems up to the flange on the side of the on site area battery limit
valve. Each service will thus be numbered.
b. Each OOB interconnecting piping sub-system will normally be regarded as
comprising one system, with the aim of achieving hand over and acceptance of
the complete system per service on one target date. The Area Coordinator
assigned to "Pipe Bridges" will coordinate these sections with the Area
Coordinators and the Area Superintendents.
c. If, for a particular interconnecting piping service, it is not practical because of
construction constraints, to achieve construction completion on one date, the
piping network for that service may be split into one or more parts, each part
having a different target date for hand over and acceptance. Each part will be
regarded as a subsystem comprising of one system. For a piping service to be
split in this way, isolating header valves and / or flanges able to incorporate a
blind have to exist, or will have to be installed, to enable staged
commissioning and livening of each part (sub-section).
d. Since initial planning is based on the hand over and acceptance of a complete

SECTION 4 - SYSTEM PLANNINGAPPROACH

interconnecting piping service as one sub-system, then to accommodate the

possible later splitting of the service into one or more parts as separate sub-
sections refer to ……. for the proper numbering system.
e. For each sub-system, and therefore the system, within the interconnecting
piping unit, a target date will be set for acceptance of the C.O.M.E of the
system. Prior to C.O.M.E and immediately following flushing, Operations
will commence hydro testing activities on the piping within the system. Once
Hushing is complete, the Contractor will re-instate the pipelines, on
completion of which C.O.M.E can be declared. Subsequent to C.O.M.E,
Operations can commence blowing, purging / loading up of the network
within the system.

4.3. The Numbering System

Used at Global Power Services for identifying systems and sub-systems for
commissioning purposes are as follows:
1. The first three (3) numbers identify the area. These are the actual mill code
numbers assigned to each area.
Example: 411 - Digester Plant
421 - Washing, Screening and Oxygen Delignification Plant, etc.
2. The next three digits represent the system being identified as a
Commissioning Loop. The first digit of these three is an "S". The "S"
stands for "System". The next two digits are numbers. Every department
should break their departments down into systems starting at the beginning
of their process flow sheet with the lowest number being the first system in
that department.
Example: The bottom of the Brown High Density Tower to the bottom of
the First Reaction Tower is the first system in the Bleach Plant and will be
numbered 431-SOI.
3. The last digit in the numbering system is a letter which is used to identify a
sub-system within a system. Each system is to be broken down into small
units that can be commissioned easier than complete systems.
Example: A sub-system of 431-SOI will be the Filtrate Flow from the Pre-

SECTION 4 - SYSTEM PLANNINGAPPROACH

bleach Washer Filtrate Tank to the Brown High Density Tower Dilution
system. This sub-system is then identified as 431-S01-A.
Each system will be covered by one file broken into sub-systems by dividers.

All documentation pertaining to each sub-system will be filed and kept for
future reference as well as specified documents being filed with the
Commissioning Coordinator.
