SPECIFICATIONS

Design and Construction

The offshore pipeline must be designed and constructed in accordance with Offshore Standard DNV-OS-F101 – Submarine Pipeline Systems (Offshore Pipeline) as amended from time to time, which is incorporated in its entirety in Australian Standard AS2885.4 – Pipelines, Gas and Liquid Petroleum (Part 4: Submarine Pipelines) (as amended from time to time). Specifically, the design and construction phase of the pipeline must comply with DNV-OS-F101.

Basis of Design

The pipeline design is based on the following parameters:

Item	Item Description	Details
1	Outside diameter of pipe	12” rigid pipeline: 305 mm
2	Wall thickness of pipe	12” rigid pipeline: 17–19.4 mm
3	Length	57.96 km (approximate)
4	Design life	15 years (approximate)
5	Pipeline Material	Carbon Steel
6	Pipeline Steel Grade	DNV-OS-F101 Grade 450
7	Pipeline Specification	DNV-OS-F101 Seamless
8	Minimum yield strength of pipe steel	450 MPa
9	Maximum Allowable Operating Pressure	12” rigid pipeline: 13.2 MPa 6” tie-in spools: 13.2 MPa
10	Maximum Design Capacity	Gas flow: 81 MMscf/d
11	Maximum Operating Temperature	12” rigid pipeline: 40°C 6” tie-in spools: 40°C
12	Maximum Design Temperature	12” rigid pipeline: 50°C 6” tie-in spools: 50°C
13	Minimum Design Temperature	12” rigid pipeline: 0°C 6” tie-in spools: -10°C
14	Characteristics of substance proposed to be conveyed	Gas and condensate.
15	General plans and descriptions of pump stations, tank stations or valve stations and their equipment	N/A
16	General plans and description of pigging facilities	Temporary pig launchers and receivers will be installed at the PLEM.
17	Cathodic Protection	External corrosion management shall be via a low profile sacrificial cathodic anode system. Bracelet anodes, positioned approximately every 24 joints, will be connected via doubler plates welded to the pipeline. The system is designed to be maintenance free and monitored via ROV inspection and measurement where required as part of regulatory surveys. Anode design and supply will be in accordance with DNV-RP-F103.
