Statement of Work – Addendum 1
Location and Scope of Work
This Project is located within the Don Young Port of Alaska (POA).
The Scope of Work for this project includes providing all labor, equipment, and materials
necessary to perform annual and periodic hydrostatic testing of petroleum lines from the
Petroleum Cement Terminal (PCT) and Petroleum Oil and Lubricant (POL) No. 2 to the
Port of Alaska Valve Yard (POAVY). The piping to be tested is summarized below.
PCT Dock - 6 Lines
• B5, B7, and B10 - Distillate
• B6 and B11 - Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD))
• B8 - Aromatic
POL No. 2 Dock – 4 lines
• B1 and B3 - Distillate
• B2 - Aromatic
• B9 - ULSD
The above results in a total of ten (10) 12” Petroleum Dock supply lines:
• 5 each Distillate
• 2 each Aromatic
• 3 each ULSD
And three (3) 12” Inter-User transfer lines:
• 1 Distillate
• 1 Aromatic
• 1 ULSD
The Contractor must have a minimum of two (2) years of experience providing Hydrostatic
Testing for petroleum lines in accordance with 33 CFR 156.170.
Drawings and other documents related to the POAVY, PCT, and POL No. 2, including
POAVY Operations Maintenance Manual, are considered Sensitive Security
Information controlled under 49 CFR parts 15 and 1520 and are therefore not provided
as part of the Bidding Documents.

Contractor Test Plan
Prior to commencement of the Work, the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer for
review and approval a Test plan describing the process for execution of hydrostatic
testing activities. At a minimum this plan should include:
• Testing sequence
• Isolation procedures
• Fill and vent procedures
• Pressure ramp-up
• Hold period
• Gauge locations
• Safety procedures
• Emergency shutdown
• Communications
• Spill response
• Restoration procedures
Contractor Schedule
Prior to commencement of the Work, the Contractor shall submit to the Engineer a
Schedule in the form of a time-scaled bar chart. The Schedule shall coincide with the Test
Plan and include timing for procurement of materials, phasing of line testing, provisions

the Work.
Attachment A, Port Operations and Security Information, provides primary shipping
operations that will require Work to be coordinated around. There are also several active
construction projects listed in Attachment A that are within proximity to this project and
may require coordination.
In addition to the testing Schedule, the Contractor shall prepare and provide to the
Engineer a 3-week forecast schedule to describe when work will be performed within the
3-week window. This information will be incorporated into a construction projects
presentation that will be updated by others and presented each week to assist with

be responsible for administering the test, and removal of the test fluid from the line.
2. Contractor shall coordinate with Port Users and POA on a delivery date for test
fluid. The test fluid shall be a hydrocarbon fluid compatible with the service of the
line (distillate or aromatic) in case of ULSD, the hydrocarbon fluid shall be ULSD
for steel piping.
3. All piping shall be hydrostatically tested by the Contractor at 1.5 times the
Maximum Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP). The piping system shall be
brought up to the required test pressure in four equal stages, with visual
inspections for leaks at each stage. The maximum test pressure shall be
maintained for 1 hour for all piping. Hoses shall be pressure tested in accordance
with applicable requirements, with pressure maintained for a minimum of 10
minutes. Testing shall be conducted in accordance with applicable regulatory
requirements and the POAVY Operations Maintenance Manual.
4. Test Pressures for Hydrostatic testing shall be measured in pounds per square
inch gauge (psig) as follows:
a. ANSI Class 150# - Maximum allowable working pressure - 285 psig; test
pressure - 427 psig.
b. ANSI Class 300# - Maximum allowable working pressure - 740 psig; test
pressure 1110 psig.
c. ANSI Class 600# - Maximum allowable working pressure - 1480 psig; test
pressure 2200 psig.
5. Hydrostatic Test Records shall be made for each pipe. All the test records shall be
retained by the Contractor with the job records. The job records and test results
shall be turned over to the Engineer prior to final completion. Records shall include:
