INTRODUCTION PURPOSE OF THIS DOCUMENT This general specification covers the minimum requirements for the design, supply, configuration, programming et tests of the Distributed Control System to be installed for the FUJIAN LNG TERMINAL project.

1.2

GENERAL PROCESS DESCRIPTION The Fujian LNG Terminal is an onshore import terminal with LNG carriers unloading facilities, LNG storage with vaporising facilities and gas export capability. The LNG terminal will be located at Xiuyu Harbor north shore development zone of PUTIAN city, Fujian province. Approximate latitude and longitude are North 25 12, East 110 59. The process of the Terminal can be described into three main functional sections: LNG unloading LNG carriers are berthed along terminal jetty. LNG is pumped out from ship using ship pumps and sent to storage tanks through 3 unloading arms and an unloading collector routed to shore on an aerial trestle. Part of the vapour displaced during tank filling operation is sent back to carrier via a vapour return line connected to ship by means of a gas return arm. LNG storage LNG is stored in tanks at pressure close to atmosphere (two identical tanks are installed for phase I). Tanks pressure is mainly controlled by withdrawal of boil-off gas by reciprocating compressors (2 installed). In case of abnormal pressure increase in tank, boil-off gas in excess is sent to flare. LNG / NG send out LNG is withdrawn from tank by cryogenic pumps (two per tanks). Simultaneous operation of three in-tank pumps is required to provide peak flow. Part of the pumped flow can be sent to an LNG trucks loading station. Main flow is sent to the HP send-out pumps and to the vaporisers. Upstream HP send-out pumps, the LNG flow is split in two streams. One stream is routed to a recondenser where it is put in contact with compressed boil-off gas to make it condense. The rest of the flow bypasses the recondenser. Downstream recondenser, low pressure LNG is pressurised by cryogenic pumps and sent to vaporisers. There are two different vaporisation lines:

a high pressure line (HP system) that supplies the trunklines to Wenzhou and to Zhangzhou, a medium pressure line (MP system) dedicated to Putian power plant.

Three identical HP pumps and three identical MP pumps are installed for phase I. Parallel operation of two pumps is required to provide peak flow. Under normal operating conditions LNG is vaporised by Open Rack Vaporisers (HP ORV and MP ORV) using seawater as warm fluid. For each pressure level (HP and MP), three ORV are installed during phase I with one spare. At terminal boundary, gas is delivered to two distribution pipelines. One metering station is provided on each export line, upstream Terminal battery limit. 1.3 REFERENCES, CODES AND STANDARDS All equipment constituting the Distributed Control System shall be designed and manufactured in accordance with the last issues of regulations, codes, norms and standards listed in the specification Applicable Codes and Standards N RC443.LL.000.B100.001.

It handles and allows the following functions: Indication of all analogue or digital process variables, open or closed loops and all related parameters Manipulation of control loops, including: set-point change, operating mode, output, tuning, computation constants Alarm announcing Display of lived process graphics Logging and possibility of both historical and trend recording Display of sequence of events. Display of self-diagnostics messages. Still at Level 2, but through separate and independent equipment, the following functions are handled in addition to the above mentioned ones: Changes, additions, canceling to the configuration of Level 2 (user software) or of the lower levels. 3.2.3 DCS Communication System The equipment components forming the various levels are interconnected through a communication system allowing the functions described in the following paragraphs. The communication system shall be based on an open architecture using TCP/IP protocol or equivalent in a client/server environment. Also the communication medium shall be of standard manufacturers (Ethernet or equivalent). Proprietary communication systems are also acceptable; but they shall be submitted to review and approval.

degraded under any conditions (such as, for instance, alarm overload) taking into account that this is a relatively fast-responding process. Multiple local area networks are allowed provided that the overall functionality is satisfied. 3.3.2 Reliability and Availability The system shall be implemented by holding reliability in the utmost consideration and in particular the selection of the electronic components and the individual entities forming the system is carried out on the basis of a continuous operating time of 2 years. Availability The System shall be highly reliable and available. The availability shall be better than 99.9 % with a MTTR of 12 hours for all functions. The Probability of Failure on -2 Demand (PFD) shall be strictly lower than 10 . No error propagation: The malfunction of a unit of the System, at any level, shall not propagate to other apparatuses of other levels. 3.3.3 Modularity The system shall be of a modular construction and easily expansible. The module typology holds in due consideration the requirements of interchangeability and reduction of storage costs. 3.3.4 Redundancy High reliability is important if we take into account that the loss of critical process units would result in major upsets and costly restart time. The DCS should have ability to continue operation, without upsets, even in case of one critical equipment failure. Consequently, the System shall be configured in such a way that some equipment could be redundant. Particularly, all the following parts/functions of the System shall be completely redounded: all CPUs all communication buses all communication modules all power supply modules all parts dedicated to continuous control including I/O cards

all parts dedicated to interlock or sequential logic control All boards or equipment shall be equipped with redounded supply system connected to separate supply systems. The redundancy layouts shall be implemented in such a way that the transfer from each element to its back-up in redundancy and return to normal situation is immediate, automatic and such as not to affect the process, the operator stations, the computation or other functions. The transfer from a unit to the back up one shall be in any case alarmed. The System is fitted with a redunded memory comparing automatic device, which generates an alarm signal in the event that the result of comparison is negative. In the event of a discrepancy between the contents of the memories, it shall be possible to eliminate such difference keeping the System running. The System will be implemented in such a way that it is possible to replace the unit in redundancy of the main one without affecting the operation of the System itself. 3.3.5 Security A DCS, by nature, is relatively easy to reconfigure. The system should provide various levels of password and/or key protection to allow for different levels of authorisation when maintenance is being performed. 3.3.6 Memories Memories of non-volatile type shall be provided for the configuration data. It shall not be necessary to reload other "offline" devices in case of System restarting. In the event that RAM are used with buffer batteries, these shall be suitable to maintain the memories for 30 days. The battery charge state shall be continuously monitored. A special alarm shall be generated when the required maintenance times cannot be ensured. All batteries shall be replaceable without needing to interrupt the functionality of the associated memories. The System is fitted with memory sufficient to carry out all the required control, protection and automation functions. The System configuration shall be such as to leave at least 30% of memory space available for future changes. It is preferred that all memory modules are expansible with no need of hardware or software changes.

3.3.7

Synchronisation All System apparatuses at any level shall maintain an internal clock having a resolution of 1 millisecond. Such clock shall be resettable from the operator station or from the configuration station. All system clocks shall be synchronised within 1 millisecond one from the other. Within the System there are more Master stations in such a way that the malfunction of an individual apparatus cannot affect the operation or the synchronisation of the others. Each Level 1 apparatus of the System shall be suitable to generate such synchronisation signal.

3.3.8

Data Base All Input/Output signals to the System shall be identified with the same identifying tag name, generally that one of the field instrument. The System allows the input, output signals or internal variable to be identified with a name of 12 digits at least. For each input, output or internal variable, this name will be unique and can be used in any level of the DCS and for any function (acquisition, control, supervision, configuration and programming, visualisation, logging, etc..)

3.3.9

Basic control. DCS shall allow implementation of standard control functions (PID, ratio, cascades, etc.).

3.3.10

Extended control The DCS should provide ways to implement user functions including modifying standard algorithms or defining new ones. This functionality should be available by use of a high-level programming language from an industry standard. The ability to include logic functions (e.g. interlocks) may be necessary for implementing certain advanced control functions.

3.3.11

Multivariable control A highly desirable feature of the DCS is that multivariable predictive control (MPC) can be performed directly rather than in process control computer interfaced. This will allow high speed, high reliability and state-of-the-art advanced control within the basic instrumentation system. It also allows, for the operator interface, to be consistent with standard control functions display for all advanced process control applications.

Multivariable control should be able to run as fast as every 15 seconds, even if, typically, run once per minute is enough. 3.3.12 Loop processing Some functions need to be processed rapidly, at least twice per second (4 to 10 times per second desired). Others can be done much less frequently (once per minute to 4 times per minute typically for multivariable controls). The DCS must provide a mechanism to distribute the processing load so that this wide range of loop execution frequency can be accommodated. The load distribution shall not affect any functionality. 3.3.13 Communications with third party systems The DCS must offer possibility of interface with third party systems. Three types of communication may be considered: For major CCS systems such as safety systems (ESD and Fire and Gas systems, etc). In this case, the preferred DCS interface shall be via the DCS's own internal communication system where the CCS subsystems appear as nodes on the system and have established and integrated software. For external control systems such as machinery and package control systems, tank gauging systems, metering system, motorised valves management system, power management system, HVAC control system etc In that case, standard serial link (RS 232, 485, etc..) redundant or not according to application with proven protocol (such as MODBUS) shall be used. High level of communication can be also considered after review and approval. For management and associated systems such as Management information system, Asset management system, operator training system, advanced control system etc.. In that case, DCS shall be able to carry on a dialog through appropriate interface module and communications standard network (Ethernet or equivalent). 3.3.14 Installation of the system The system will be installed in a non-classified area (control room, technical room) - ISA S71.04 & S71.01 G1AX The System shall be suitable to operate in a room with the following ambient parameters: Maximum: T = 40C

The system shall be suitable to be stored in a warehouse with the following limit ambient parameters: T from 0 to + 50C Relative Humidity from 20% to 95% DCS equipment shall be in accordance with IEC 6100 norms regarding EMC interference. Earth shake protection Shock of 15G, 10 millisecond duration or steady state vibration of 2.5G, 5-500 Hz shall not result in any damage or malfunction. 3.3.15 System Electric Supply The system shall be supplied at 220 V - 50 Hz from a UPS supply with the following tolerances: Voltage Frequencies 220 V + 10%, 220 V - 10% 50 Hz + 3%, 50 Hz - 4%

The system is to supply all external loops except those identified as "externally supplied". All supply units shall be redundant and implemented in such a way as to prevent that the malfunction of a unit may extend to the other units as well. The transfer of supply from the unit under failure to the back up one is instantaneous and without interruptions in the normal operation of the System. The outputs of all supply units shall be monitored by the System and any malfunctions shall be immediately identified and alarmed. In case of interruption then coming back of the power, the system shall automatically start with no need of a manual data reloading from disks, tapes or else. The starting and reset of each System component shall not require the performance of complex procedures.

The selection of the scanning time is carried out by taking in due consideration the speed with which each signal changes from its normal operating state to the abnormal one. The scanning time of some I/O signals may be automatically modified by program. This will allow that points with normally slow dynamics could be sampled at greater frequencies during some particular transients (starting). 4.1.1.9 Checking of loop integrity The system constantly shall check all the analogue I/O to verify that they are within the fixed ranges and activate an alarm signal in case of malfunction.

Adequate modules of third party systems shall be delivered to the FAT area and complete connection of intercommunication modules shall be realised. The following shall be tested: Correct functioning of the link Correct functioning of the protocol. Correct configuration and programming of data base table on each side The test shall be performed in accordance with an agreed test procedure and shall be carried out in parallel with the DCS software test (parallel test is mandatory as the DCS need to be physically connected to the external equipment to demonstrate the full hardware and software functionality). 9.3 9.3.1 SITE ACCEPTANCE TEST(SAT) System power up After the installation of the system on the field, the system will be powered on under control of vendor representative. Good functioning of equipment shall be, again, tested by repeating tests done during FAT. During the Site acceptance test, particular care shall be taken to check the power supply system and the grounding network 9.3.2 Loop tests A dynamic complete test of all the loops shall be performed. This test will allow the checking, from the local sensors up to the operator console, of the good functioning of: Sensor Wiring up to Input card Corresponding data base Control function (including alarms, associated calculations, etc.) Display on adequate views (group, graphic, alarm, etc.)
