PURPOSE AND SCOPE

The object of this document is to describe CONTRACTOR´s minimum quality requirements

for SUBCONTRACTOR´s Quality System, which shall be implemented and fulfilled during

fabrication, construction, pre-commissioning activities and services by the scope of work

defined in the Subcontract of RIYAS NGL FRACTIONATION FACILITIES PKG. 1 & PKG. 2.

Compliance with the requirements stated in this procedure does not exclude the

SUBCONTRACTOR’s compliance with the COMPANY Standards applicable to the WORK,

and with the rest of the requirements contained in the Subcontract or in some of its annexes

or attachments.

If a conflict arises between or within any of:

•

this procedure, or any CONTRACTOR Procedures or Plans;

• COMPANY Standards applicable to the WORK;

•

the Subcontract, or in some of its annexes or attachments,

The SUBCONTRACTOR shall promptly notify and

request

the CONTRACTOR

Representative in writing for resolution within thirty (30) days from the Subcontract effective

date.

In respect of any conflict discovered and notified by SUBCONTRACTOR more than thirty

(30) days after the Subcontract effective date, the CONTRACTOR Representative shall be

entitled to issue an instruction to SUBCONTRACTOR to implement a resolution to the

conflict. SUBCONTRACTOR shall comply with all instructions given by the CONTRACTOR

Representative without by reason of such instruction, becoming entitled to any extension of

time, any Change, any additional payment or any other relief.

The SUBCONTRACTOR will compile all conflicts sent in a log, each conflict will have a

unique number, and the log must reflect the individual conflict status (Unique number,

description, date sent, replied, status, comments…etc.) and also the general conflict status

as % and number clarified against % and number pending to clarify. The log form has to be

prepared by SUBCONTRACTOR and send in advance for approval to the CONTRACTOR

before to start or use it.

This Q.R.F.S. document neither abrogates nor modifies the contractual agreements between

the parties but provides the mechanism for carrying out the normal working relationship

between the parties during the Project execution.

In accordance with 4.1.3 in this document, if a dedicated software is provided by

CONTRACTOR the processes here described may vary and in case of discrepancy, the

processes required as per the dedicated software will prevail.

In case CONTRACTOR does not provide the RFI form, SUBCONTRACTOR will present for

CONTRACTOR approval an inspection communication protocol to be applied during

WORKS (Request for Inspection, RFI). Hard/soft copy of RFI will be forwarded as notification

to all parties involved and necessary documents will be made available at the location of

Inspection by SUBCONTRACTOR/CONTRACTOR QC personnel. In case SQMS is

implemented in the Project, SUBCONTRACTOR shall issue all RFIs using the Software.

Based on the RFI all parties will inspect the completed WORK for its compliance with Project

standards, SAES, SAEPs, and specifications and accept the WORK. All parties will sign the

checklist / inspection report on completion of inspection. In case SQMS is implemented in

the Project, SUBCONTRACTOR shall scan RFIs Dossiers (after QC forms signatures) and

shall upload them in SQMS. SUBCONTRACTOR will file these completed hard copies RFI

Dossiers in safe custody. RFI and Inspection Logbook may be combined in a database with

access for CONTRACTOR.The Request for Inspection system proposed need to have an

operative philosophy orientate to avoid notification delay and non-necessary (duplicated)

signs.

Prior the beginning of work all parties concerned shall agree the details and coordination of

inspection, examination and testing activities to be carried out in accordance with the

approved ITP. RFI to CONTRACTOR shall be issued when the inspection type is indicated

in the ITP either W or H.

An example of Electronic Request for Inspection template is shown as template 02 of this

document.

Unless otherwise agree, SUBCONTRACTOR shall issue the notification for inspection to

CONTRACTOR a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours advance for Inspection staffed Job

Sites, forty-eight (48) hours advance for unstaffed onshore Job Sites, and one (1) calendar

week advance for unstaffed offshore Job Sites and remote area locations. However, normal

working days

inspection notification

time should be agreed at site between

SUBCONTRACTOR and CONTRACTOR quality representative, to avoid delays during

construction process.

The following workflow describes how SUBCONTRACTOR shall issue RFI and coordinate

with CONTRACTOR the surveillance on inspections, examinations and tests as well as the

issuing and the distribution of relevant reports:
