1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 General This report details the findings of a HAZOP study of the basic engineering design of the Kazakhstan-China Pipeline, stations 8, 10 and 11 on behalf of MKS LLP. The HAZOP was performed during 6th December to 21st December 2012 at the Project Office in Kyzylorda, Kazakhstan.
1.2 Background The Kazakhstan-China Pipeline will carry crude oil in a pipeline from Atasu in Kazakhstan to Alashankou in China, a distance 962,2 km. The project includes the design and construction of the pipeline; pumping facilities at the existing Atasu station; mainline block valves; intermediate pump station; pig trap stations for future pump stations and a metering station at Alashankou. The pipeline will be controlled using a computer operated SCADA system complete with dedicated data and voice communications. In addition the necessary ancillary control and maintenance buildings, emergency response and other supplementary facilities will be provided.
1.3 HAZOP Team The team was led by a highly experienced independent chairman who is also a process engineer. The HAZOP team consisted of an independent pipeline engineer, a process engineer as secretary and engineering personnel from MKS LLP. An interpreter was present for translation of English and Russian.
The main objective of this HAZOP study was to systematically identify as many foreseeable hazards and operational concerns as possible that were associated with the design of the pipeline and Stations 8,10 and 11. At the start of the HAZOP study, the chairman briefed the HAZOP team on the HAZOP process and identified the guidewords to be used. HAZOP was reported in full using Microsoft Word software and the current worksheet was visually projected so that all team members could see the progress of the discussions as they were being recorded.

2.0 SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of work was to conduct a HAZOP on the basic design of the Kazakhstan to China pipeline and stations 8, 10 and 11 owned by KCP to identify the areas where changes could be made to reduce any hazard associated with the operation of the pipeline and improve its operability.
The HAZOP process was applied to each station (8,10,11) and section of the pipeline and associated piping and equipment. The extent of the study was from immediately upstream of the Kumkol and West Siberia pig receivers at Atasu to immediately downstream of the metering runs at Alashankou using the PEtlD's provided. The electrical, communications, buildings and other portions of the project which are ancillary to the basic process and not shown on the P&ID's were excluded from the HAZOP.
3.0 SUMMARY
The HAZOP addressed the basic engineering design of the stations 8, 10, 11 and Kazakhstan-China Pipeline and associated facilities. There were no hazards identified that were considered to be of sufficiently high level of risk to result in a substantial delay to project completion.
3.1 High Risk Actions Hazards identified where the Pipeline Operation and stations 8, 10, 11 considered to be exposed to major risks are:
• Operation, Maintenance and Control Philosophy Document
There is a requirement for an approved Process Control, Shutdown, Emergency Shutdown and Start-up Philosophy to be in place before proceeding to detailed engineering. The risks associated-with not having an approved Philosophy in place are high because there could be a loss of integrity in the detailed design leading to hazardous situations, loss of production, and which could have an impact on the reputation of the Operating Company.
• Meter Precision The precision of the Atasu and Alashankou meters will be compromised because of leakage paths to or from the meter prover circuit during meter proving. Also, oil could leak through the meter run discharge valve while meter proving. These will result in errors in the metered volumes.
• Pipeline Plugging The problem of pipeline plugging must be studied and recommendations made to minimize it and clear the plugged line. The temperature of the oil could fall below the pour point resulting in wax formation with the possibility of complete line blockage. If the line becomes blocked then there will be a significant loss of production.
HAZOP REPORT

• Drainage of Impressed Current of the Pipeline Cathodic Protection System
There is a potential for the cathodic protection impressed current to drain through the valve stem and motor operator of the pipeline block valves. If this occurs then the corrosion rate along the pipeline will be increased resulting in eventual pipeline failure, loss of containment of crude oil and loss of production.
• Internal Corrosion The anticipated internal rate of corrosion should be established to determine the design pipeline corrosion allowance to ensure that the wall thickness at the end of the life of the pipeline meets code requirements. Failure to establish the internal rate of corrosion could result in pipeline failure with the consequent loss of crude oil containment and loss of production.
• Overpressure of Piping and Valves
At Pump Stations 8, 10, 11 and Alashankou there are sections of piping that are not designed to withstand the pressures that could be generated by the system. Also at these Pump Stations there are two valves upstream of the surge relief valves that are underrated. These sections of piping and the valves must be uprated or protected against overpressure because the risk of overpressure is high and the potential consequences resulting from a valve failure or piping rupture are unacceptable.
System of smoothing waves of pressure
In the operation process of pipeline there are risks related with emergence of pressure waves which can lead to a rupture of pipes in certain places. Such risks are avoided generally by use of systems of smoothing pressure waves and valves which are independent of electricity consumption.
3.2 Other Actions A complete listing of all identified hazards is given in Appendix II. This listing includes recommendations to address the identified hazards.
4.0 HAZOP STUDY PROCEDURE
4.1 HAZOP Process The aim of the HAZOP process is to identify potential deviations in process and control parameters that may lead to possible hazardous situations or operability problems. A systematic analysis is used for challenging the design by applying guidewords rigorously to each part of the process system identified on the P&IDs. The process systems are divided into nodes which provide manageable sections of plant for analysis. The purpose of the HAZOP process is to assist the design engineer by identifying hazards so that the design engineer can assess them and mitigate the hazards as appropriate.
HAZOP REPORT
Page 8 of 91
The identified hazards relate to protection of people, protection of equipment, protection of production, protection of the environment; and the engineering design must address ways of mitigating, these hazards. Eliminating these hazards through design increases the integrity of the design, minimises loss of production and protects the reputation of the Operating Company.
Hazards or operability problems were identified during the analysis. The hazards or problems were then discussed and recorded, taking into account design safeguards and mitigating measures. If the system arrangements were considered inadequate or deemed to require further review then an action was recorded.

5.0 FINDINGS
The HAZOP addressed the basic engineering design of the Pump Stations 8, 10, 11 and Kazakhstan-China Pipeline as well as associated facilities. The results of the HAZOP are detailed in the HAZOP worksheets detailed in Appendix II, which contain a complete list of recommendations. Some of the recommendations contain solutions that were discussed by the HAZOP team members. However, these solutions are included for information only - there may be other solutions that will adequately address the recommendations. Based on the HAZOP team discussions and experience, the SCS team members made a qualitative assessment of the level of risk to the Pipeline Operation for each of the identified hazards. Three levels of risk were used: high risk where there could be a major adverse impact on Pipeline Operation, medium risk where there could be a significant impact on Pipeline Operation and low risk where the impact on Pipeline Operation was not considered to be of major significant due to the small likelihood of the situation occurring and the consequences not being substantial
The hazards listed in this report are not in order of priority.
There were no hazards identified that were considered to be of sufficiently high level of risk to result in substantial delay to project completion.
5.1 High Risk Actions The following items are considered to have a high risk with a high possibility of them occurring and having severe consequences. These items should be addressed and actions implemented to minimise the risk associated with the hazard.
• Operation, Maintenance and Control Philosophy Document
Currently there is not an approved Process Control, Shutdown, ESD, Start-up or Restart Philosophy. There is a requirement for these philosophies to be written to provide a basis of design for detailed engineering to proceed. The Philosophies must incorporate all aspects of Operation including loss of services such as Communications. The risks associated with not having an approved Philosophy in place are high because there could be a loss of integrity in the detailed design. The design must follow a set of requirements that is agreed and approved and must address the protection of people, equipment, production and the environment. If any of these is compromised then a hazardous situation could result, there could loss of production and there could be an impact on the reputation of the Operating Company.
• Meter Precision
It is critical for custody transfer meter and prover systems as present at Pump Stations 8,10, 11, Atasu and Alashankou, that there are no possible leak paths between the meter and the prover outlet so that all oil passing through the meter also passes through the meter and through the prover will lead to an invalid meter factor. As result of this, the subsequent metered volumes will be incorrect by possibly a relatively large amount.
HAZOP REPORT
Page 12 of 91
On the basic design P&IDs there are a number of potential leak paths that need to be eliminated or designed such that any leak can be easily detected. Possible means of detecting a leak could be by the use of tundishes, or by using double block and bleed valves. The leak paths identified include lines to the closed drain system, the prover RV discharge line, lines to and from the calibration and flushing connections and the valve in the main oil flow line downstream of the meter.
• Pipeline Plugging
The problem of pipeline plugging must be studied and recommendations made to minimise it and a method to clear a plugged line developed. The temperature of the oil could fall below the pour point resulting in wax formation with the possibility of complete line blockage. If the line becomes blocked then there will be a significant loss of production. It is probable that plugging of the pipeline will occur and a method of clearing the blockage should be designed to minimise the time that the plug exists. A method of clearing a plugged line that is commonly used is to have standpipes either side of the pipeline block valves to permit the clearing of a short section using a portable high pressure piston pump.
• Drainage of Impressed Current of the Pipeline Cathodic Protection System
There is a potential for the CP impressed current to drain through the valve stem and motor operator of the pipeline block valves. If this occurs then the corrosion rate along the pipeline will be increased resulting in possible pipeline failure, loss of containment of crude oil and loss of production. The valve extension, the valve shaft and the instrumentation adjacent to the valve must be electrically isolated from the pipeline at every pipeline block valve and an isolating joint should be installed immediately downstream of the barred tee at Atasu.
• Internal Corrosion
The anticipated internal rate of corrosion should be established to determine the design pipeline corrosion allowance to ensure that the wall thickness at the end of the life of the pipeline meets code requirements. Failure to establish the internal rate of corrosion could result in pipeline failure with the consequent loss of crude oil containment and loss of production over an extended period.
• Overpressure of piping and valves
At Pump Station 8, 10, 11 and Alashankou there are sections of piping that are not designed to withstand the pressures that could be generated by the system. Also at Pump Station 8, 10 and 11 there are two valves, XV09114 and XV09117, upstream of the surge relief valves that are underrated. These sections of piping and valves must be identified and uprated or protected against overpressure. The risk of overpressure is high and the potential consequences resulting from a valve failure or pipe rupture are unacceptable.
HAZOP REPORT
Page 13 of 91
• System of smoothing pressure waves During the operation process of pipeline there can be an unauthorized shutdown of pumps, additionally they are stopped and start dueto change of an operating mode of the pipeline. In such cases there is a sharp change of speed of oil that leads to pressure increase in the pipeline. In this cases the wave of a high pressure reaches sound speed. The hydroblow from such wave is capable to lead to destruction of shutoff valves and the pipeline and the most weak spots, for example at Pump Station exit where working pressure sometimes reaches a limit of a bearing capability. In order to avoid such risks it is necessary to provide system of smoothing pressure waves as well as to supply with nitric drives not only SSVD valves but also all valves of the pipeline which will provide stable pressure in case of planned or unauthorized shutdown of pumps.
5.2 Medium risk Actions The following items are considered to have a medium risk with a high possibility of occurring or having severe consequences should they occur. A means of mitigating the risks should be implemented where possible.
• Stored Energy in traps
During normal operation of the pipeline the pig traps would normally be depressured, drained and shut in when not being used for pigging. However, there are leakage paths for crude oil to enter the traps either by passing through the closed main line valve or through the kicker or bridle line valves. If the drain or vent on the trap is blocked with wax then there is a possibility that the trap pressure could rise because of leakage and not be detected. Opening of the closure under these circumstances would cause a release of the stored energy with potentially catastrophic results. Some industry standards require double block and bleed valve arrangement on the main inlet and outlet trap lines because fatalities have occurred. The design of the traps should have either a double block and bleed valve arrangement or they should be designed with alternative protection against accidental release of stored energy. The alternative protection must have an equivalent level of integrity as a double block and bleed valve arrangement.
• Tank vents
No vents are shown on the surge relief tanks at Pump Station 9 and Alashankou. These tanks are critical to the surge relief path and Project must ensure that the tanks are correctly vented to prevent rupture or collapse.
• Crude oil entering thermal oil heater
There is a possibility of crude oil entering the thermal oil circuit should there be a tube rupture within any of the crude oil/thermal oil shell and tube heat exchangers. In this circumstance thermal degradation of the crude oil in the heater could occur leading to failure of the heater and subsequent loss of production. The design should minimise the risk of this occurrence.
HAZOP REPORT
Page 14 of 91
• ESDVs
During an emergency shutdown there is the possibility of continued flow through Atasu, Pump Station 9 and Alashankou. ESDVs are required to be fitted at these sites to provide tight shut off. The ESDVs should not be able to be bypassed and should not be motor operated.
• Pipeline transients
The main line block valve closure times should be reviewed to ensure that transients are not generated by the closure of one of these valves resulting in potential damage to the pipeline.
• Piping Overpressure
The protection against overpressure of the piping downstream of the pumps at Pump Stations 8, 10 and 11 is dependant upon the third pump not starting when two pumps are in operation. The Project should ensure that SCADA inhibits the starting of the third pump.
• SCADA interlocks
SCADA interlocks are required on the pig traps so that misoperation of the trap valves cannot take place allowing the trap closure to be opened with mainline, kicker or bridle valves opened or a valve to be accidentally opened while the trap closure is open.
• Insulating joint
An insulating joint between Atasu and the outgoing pipeline is required to electrically isolate the CP pipeline from the station piping and prevent drainage of impressed current. Failure to do this could result in increased corrosion rates on the pipeline which could lead to pipeline failure and subsequent loss of production.
• Back Pressure Control for Meter Runs
Back pressure control of the Atasu and Alashankou meter runs is required to ensure that the flow is above the minimum flow and that the pressure is sufficient to prevent bubble formation. Both of these events will lead to inaccurate meter readings.
• Buried piping Corrosion Protection
There is no means of protecting station buried piping from external corrosion. Buried piping needs to be protected from corrosion by applying an adequate coating material and installing a sacrificial or impressed current CP system to mitigate corrosion.
• Alashankou Additional filter
An additional filter at Alashankou is recommended so that a blocked or failed filter does not result in a pipeline shutdown.
• Pipeline Maximum Allowable Operating Pressure
Confirmation is required that the MAOP of the Pipeline is sufficient to withstand pressures resulting from the highest possible pressure at Atasu and
HAZOP REPORT
Page 15 of 91
pump stations 8, 10 and 11 with all pumps operating (including standby pumps). If the MAOP is exceeded then operation would be outside the SNiP design code.
NTD of welded seams
After accomplishment of welded connections it is necessary to execute NDT of welded seams by methods of a X-ray, ultrasound and magnetic powder for the purpose of prevention of gaps and leakages in the pipeline, drainage reservoirs, reservoirs, etc.
• Reconstruction of existing Pump Stations
The pipeline construction establishes increase in capacity in 20 million tons per year. Initial designing was conducted taking into account in 10 million tons per year, therefore it is necessary to review handling capacity of all earlier constructed Pump Stations, nodes and locking fittings about handling capacity.
5.3 Low risk Actions A complete listing of all identified hazards, including those considered to have a low risk to the Pipeline Operation, is given in the HAZOP worksheets in Appendix II.
Operating Procedure Documents must be written to cover all possible operations for the Atasu to Alashankou Pipeline for each mode operation, viz. normal operation, start-up, re-start, normal shutdown and emergency shutdowns. The procedures should be written when the detailed engineering design has been completed. In addition,
Maintenance Procedures should be written. Actions in the HAZOP worksheets referring to Operating Procedures are for the specific operations raised by the HAZOP team members. The actions are not a comprehensive list of all the possible operations that could take place for the Pipeline Operation. The actions are for specific operations that the HAZOP team members identified as being necessary for inclusion in the Operating Procedure Documents.
Other low risk actions which were identified include requirements for thermal relief of blocked-in above ground piping; leak detection at drains tanks and drawing drafting errors which already have been addressed in the detailed design but the detail design should be checked to ensure that these items have been incorporated where appropriate.
The PEtlDs for Atasu were found to be confusing to follow. It is recommended that the Atasu P&IDs are re-drawn to give clarity and precision. There is a possibility that mistakes could be made when using the existing set of Atasu P&IDs.

CONCLUSION This expert analysis of operational risk Hazop on the project "The second queue of the second phase of the Kazakhstan-China oil pipeline project. Atasu – Alashankou section. Construction and reconstruction of PS-11, PS-9 and Alashankou oil metering station" contains all necessary information characterizing reliability of safe functioning and operation, ensuring control of technical parameters and observance of security measures and environment. In summary it should be noted that the project doesn't worsen safety of operation Atasu – Alashankou section of the Kazakhstan-China oil pipeline. However, for decrease an influence of a human factor on safety operation of the pipeline it is recommended to develop and implement the regulating document regarding philosophy of safe operation of this oil pipeline.
