criteria for the installation operation. The definition of allowable environmental criteria is mandatory
for all Lifting Operations. The criteria for each phase shall specify the maximum allowable
significant swell and local sea wave heights and range of zero crossing periods for head, quartering,
and beam seas. The limiting wind, current, and critical tide range shall also be specified. Where
limiting environmental criteria for the lift has been established by dynamic analysis, Contractor is
required to deploy a wave buoy or similar device on site to allow accurate determination of the
existing Sea State.

3.1.4. Reserves and Contingencies


1) Contractor shall state, prior to the acceptance of the installation scheme by Company, the Not to
Exceed (NTE) lift weight for the item to be lifted. The NTE lift weight shall include all
appropriate weight margin factors and reserves as specified in the relevant Engineering MPDSs.

Code Description
* Assigned to paragraphs that require the Company's Representative to provide additional
information or make a decision.
A Assigned to paragraphs that require approval from the Company's Representative before the
work may proceed or the design is finalized.
C Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is reduced costs.
Reduced cost in this context refers to initial investment cost and does not include Life-Cycle
cost considerations. Life-Cycle cost considerations are captured under reliability,
maintainability, or operability purpose codes.
E Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is driven by
environmental considerations. Environmental considerations typically include specifications
intended to protect against emissions/leakage to the air, water, and/or soil. Deviations from the
specifications contained in such paragraphs require formal review and approval according to
local environmental policy.
I Assigned to paragraphs that provide only clarifying information such as Scope statements,
definitions of terms, etc.
M Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is to provide for
maintainability of equipment or systems. Maintainability provisions are those that facilitate the
performance of maintenance on equipment/systems either during downtimes or during on-
stream operations.
O Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is to assure
operability of equipment or systems. Operability is the ability of the equipment/system to
perform satisfactorily even though conditions are off-design, such as during startups, process
swings, subcomponent malfunction, etc.
R Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is to improve or
assure the reliability of equipment or systems. Reliability is a measure of the ability of
equipment/systems to operate without malfunction or failure between planned maintenance
interventions.
S Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is avoidance of
personnel or operational safety incidents. Any deviation from the specifications contained in
such designated paragraphs requires formal review and approval according to local safety
policy.
Personnel Safety: Refers to the avoidance of recordable personnel injuries; i.e., burns, cuts,
abrasions, inhalation, or exposure to dangerous substances, etc., that
could result in medical treatment, restricted work, lost-time incidents, or
fatalities.
Operational Refers to the prevention and control of process releases, fires, explosions,
Safety: etc.

The deleted paragraphs and requirements therein were not applicable to the MPDS at the time
of MPDS development. Subsequent revisions of the GP shall be compared against this MPDS
to ensure that GP updates are properly incorporated into the next revision of the MPDS,
including a review of deleted paragraphs to ensure the deletion is still valid.
Y Assigned to paragraphs that have been modified from the GP base-document when developing
the MPDS. These modifications may include partial deletion of text from a specific
requirement. The changes identified are of a technical nature, affecting the clause of the

with "MPDS" or "Company" with "EMEPMI" are not identified.
The GP base-document and revision are listed on the front page of this MPDS as well as all
page footers.
Specific project requirements have been written into the GP base-document paragraph.
Subsequent revisions of the GP shall be compared against this MPDS to ensure that GP
updates are properly incorporated into the next revision of the MPDS. The specific project
requirements embedded in the GP base-document paragraphs shall be retained in subsequent
revisions of the MPDS unless otherwise superseded by requirements in the GP. Alternately,
they may be removed via the appropriate deviation process.
Z Assigned to paragraphs that have been added to the GP base-document.
The GP base-document and revision are listed on the front page of this MPDS as well as all
page footers.
The paragraph numbers assigned shall add onto the GP base-document structure. Therefore,
