1. GENERAL SCOPE
R3 The intent of this document is to outline the minimum requirement in developing the
specific RTIP material and equipment protection/preservation plan by the Contractor
and/or the Purchaser, and should be used in conjunction with Schedule G and Q requirements.
This includes the appropriate coordination with the principles such as the Owner’s team
and the supplier/vendor to support the applicable warranty and life expectancy.
The Plan (s) must cover Equipment and Material Protection from the time the item is
being prepared for shipping at the source (by the Manufacturer or at Vendor Shop),
through shipping, site delivery/storage, and installation and/or the warehousing. The
Contractor and/or the Purchaser shall remain responsible for the proper execution of the
Equipment and Material Protection and Preservation Plan (Plan) until the Owner’s formal
written acceptance of the installation and/or turnover of the facility. The Plan shall
conform to Engineering Design and manufacturer’s requirements for storage and
preservation.
1.1 Responsibilities
1.1.1 RTIP Site Material Control Manager may oversee implementation of the Material
and Equipment Protection and Preservation Plan, including the roles and responsibilities
as indicated in the Equipment and Materials Protection Plan Work Process, employing
the appropriate equipment, piping, and bulk materials maintenance and preservation
procedures defined in this Plan.
1.1.2 Procurement / buyers are responsible for conveying information to suppliers

relative to site climatic and other conditions affecting equipment storage and preservation
and ensuring that suppliers respond with appropriate preservation requirements.
1.1.3 Purchaser / buyer such as the contractor is responsible for the proper development
and execution of the Plan to support and provide the appropriate information for the Site
Material Handling/Storage as well as the Owner’s Maintenance and Warehousing
approach such as the data management software. The data management software shall
be able to deliver the data in a format for upload into the Owner’s Equipment
Maintenance System and Asset Management System.
1.1.4 Statutory Requirements: The Purchaser / Supplier shall mutually determine and
properly communicate the measures that must be taken to comply with all applicable
governmental codes, regulations, ordinances and rules which shall be applied as a first
precedence.
1.1.5 Purchaser’s equipment and/or material Work Group Leader (WGL) as the
Engineer of the record is responsible for requesting and reviewing equipment storage,
maintenance, and protection requirements provided by equipment suppliers. The
Equipment Preservation and Maintenance Log Summary (Appendix 2) or Supplier's
equivalent log shall be used by each WGL to document agreed requirements.
1.1.6 To avoid an unreasonable deferment of the requirements to the downstream

principles and shifting of the cost/responsibilities, the Purchaser must economically

Page 5 of 28
and/or technically justify the deferment of the engineering controls and shall obtain the
Owner’s concurrence. The Owner’s review and/or comment may also flag this upfront
design consideration and must be addressed appropriately.
1.1.7 Purchaser Site QA/QC Manager is responsible for reviewing the maintenance and
preservation procedures and performing the appropriate surveillances during the
implementation of this Material and Equipment Protection and Preservation Plan.
1.2 Statutory Requirements
The Purchaser and Supplier shall mutually determine the measures that must be taken to
comply with all applicable governmental codes, regulations, ordinances and rules which
shall be applied as the first precedence.
1.3 Industry Standards
The Contractor / Purchaser’s Plan must list the appropriate industry standards which may
apply to the equipment and material. As an example, the following document is
referenced herein and forms part of the standards. Current edition of the industry
standard shall apply unless otherwise indicated.
AMERICAN PETROLEUM INSTITUTE (API)

API 686, Recommended Practices for Machinery Installation and Installation Design,
Chapter 3 – Jobsite Receiving and Protection
2. EQUIPMENT PROTECTION DURING CONSTRUCTION AT JOBSITE
2.1 Scope
This section outlines the technical requirements for protection of equipment and
associated materials at the jobsite during the construction phase of the project. Jobsite
is defined as the temporary warehouse facilities (heated and unheated), lay down yard or
outside sheltered storage as well as the permanent equipment installation location.
The Contractor / Purchaser must include the other elements of the equipment and
material protection requirements in the Plan such as the requirements during the
shipping/transport.
2.2 General Requirements
2.2.1 These procedures are generally aligned with API 686 recommended practices, if
applicable, for jobsite protection and preservation for equipment, piping, and bulk
materials.
2.2.2 All maintenance/preservation activities have been abbreviated by means of a code

number that is used with Equipment Maintenance Log Sheets and Equipment
Preservation and Maintenance Log Summary. These codes may be found in
Appendix 1.

Page 6 of 28
2.2.3 Additional or special protection procedures will be utilized on an individual item

basis as deemed necessary jointly by Purchaser and the Client. Purchaser’s Site
Material Control Manager will notify Purchaser Engineering and the Client when
packaged equipment or complex equipment arrives on site. Purchaser Engineering and
the Client will jointly agree in advance on any special preservation requirements to be
followed for the equipment.
2.2.4 Equipment manufacturers recommended storage and preservation procedures

shall be reviewed by Engineering WGL’s and incorporated into this plan as they are
received from Suppliers. In general, equipment manufacturer recommendations take
precedence over specific preservation requirements contained in this plan. Any
deviations from equipment manufacturer’s recommendations must be approved by
Purchaser Site Material Control Manager and agreed in writing with the Supplier to
ensure equipment warranties are not invalidated.
2.2.5 Storage and lay down areas shall be designed so that they are well drained. All
bulks stored outside shall be elevated above the ground and above the maximum water
run-off.
2.2.6 Protective covers and tarps are used to prevent contamination from blowing sand
and debris and shall be used in a manner that allows free air circulation around the bulks.
Covers or tarps shall not be sealed against the ground. Ventilation is needed to allow
moisture evaporation. Plastic tarps shall be used when appropriate with care to avoid
trapping moisture within the tarp and thus causing corrosion. This is especially sensitive
with rotating equipment. Woven or fabric moisture resistant tarps with impregnated vapor
corrosion inhibitors (VCI) are preferred.
2.2.7 Fibrous and other materials that can absorb moisture (e.g., pressed board,
cardboard, softwood, etc.) shall not be used as supports, spacers, separators, or covers.
Fibrous materials used in shipping crates and containers shall be removed and replaced
with suitable materials or the materials removed and suitably stored.
2.2.8 Materials shall not be stored outdoors in non-drainable positions. Components,

such as ells and bends, shall be stored in a horizontal position so that moisture and
condensation does not collect on the inside.
2.2.9 Arrangement for appropriate utilities must be in place for safe keeping of the
equipment such as the purge gas, heater power, etc.
2.2.10 Material identification markings shall be maintained.
2.2.11 All damaged and/or corroded materials shall be stored separately from
undamaged materials until corrective action is applied.
2.3 Documentation
2.3.1 Basic preservation and storage location requirements for individual equipment
items are outlined in the Equipment Preservation and Maintenance Log Summary
(Appendix 2). Preservation and storage location of auxiliary equipment and

Page 7 of 28
instrumentation that is shipped loose shall follow the requirements contained in this plan,
depending upon how the auxiliaries are categorized.
R2 2.3.2 Evidence of the implementation of the Equipment Protection Plan shall be

documented using the “Construction Engineering Maintenance Log Sheets"
(Appendix 3). A log sheet shall be completed for each equipment item or package
requiring preservation and used to record preservation activities as they occur.
2.3.3 For each equipment item, the type of preservation performed, the date each
activity was performed and the individual performing the preservation activity shall be
recorded. The original documentation will be maintained by the Purchaser Site Material
Control Manager and ultimately turned over to the Client with the project quality records.
2.3.4 Special storage and preventive maintenance activities as required for maintaining
extended warranties, if required, shall be included on the Construction Engineering
Maintenance Log Sheet (Appendix 3). The items for which this is required are identified
in the notes column of the Equipment Preservation and Maintenance Log Summary
(Appendix 2).
2.4 Use and Application of Rust Preventives, Preservatives, and Desiccants
2.4.1 All interior and exterior surfaces shall be cleaned and dried as required before any
rust preventive materials are applied.
2.4.2 For interior surfaces of bearing housings, the preservative of choice is provided by
Cortec, who provides a vapor phase inhibitor product (VPI) with characteristics that will
maintain a lubricated and protected surface during cold weather conditions and for
extended periods. Most suppliers will agree to furnish their equipment with the
appropriate VPI product prior to leaving the shop if specified in the Purchase Order.
2.4.3 Mineral spirits such as Varsol or any Stoddard solvent, as applicable, shall be used
for cleaning exterior surfaces prior to application of any rust preventive compounds.
Kerosene or gasoline shall not be used as cleaning agents.
2.4.4 API Type D asphaltic preservatives should be avoided, as most asphaltic films are
very difficult to remove. Non-asphaltic inhibitors such as Cortec 368 provide excellent
long term storage protection.
2.4.5 The rust preventives to be used are defined below, based upon required usage.
Equivalent rust preventatives may be used with prior approval.

restraining the fan blades, or by restraining the driven sprocket. Motors and belts should
be left in the shipping packaging as long as possible, and stored in a dry place at
moderate temperatures. Gear drives should be filled with lubricant. If storage lasts more
than three months, fan and motor shafts should be manually rotated at least 15
revolutions once a month, and should have grease added once every six months
according to the following table:
NEMA Frame Size (IEC) Vol. (mL)
182 – 215 (112 - 132) 8

254 – 286 (160 – 180) 16
324 – 365 (200 – 225) 24
404 – 449 (250 – 280) 40
Fan Bearings 75
After manual rotation of motor shafts, packaging should be returned to original state, and
desiccant should be added. Fans should be re-secured, and any covering replaced.
2.17.6 Louvers should be in the closed position. Carbon steel tubes with extruded fins
should have the exposed ends sprayed with oil every three months and the tube bundle
should be covered with plastic or canvas. If the exposed tube ends are painted with
epoxy paint, spraying with oil is unnecessary. For carbon steel tubes with embedded
fins, the entire length of the tubes should be sprayed with light oil every three months,
and the bundles covered. Machined surfaces of sprockets should be coated with grease.
For bundles with a nitrogen purge, pressure should be monitored, and nitrogen replaced
as necessary.
2.17.7 When air coolers are put in service, grease lines should be disconnected from
bearing housings, and lines should be purged with new grease. Lines should then be
reconnected, and bearing grease chambers should be purged with new grease, with
