1 Introduction

This document defines the design requirements to be applied to the mechanical plant and
equipment packages for the San Gabriel Project.

The requirements of the document are mandatory, and any departures will need to be
approved by the Engineer. In the context of this document, the term “Engineer” refers to the
“Purchaser”.

All design, supply and fabrication work for the equipment shall comply with the Codes,
Standards and Regulations applicable for the San Gabriel Project, located in the Moquegua
department of Perú, South America.

2 Health, Safety and Environment

The San Gabriel Project team regards the health and safety of its employees, contractors and
clients along with the care for the environment as utmost priority. The mechanical design
shall be conducted so as to:

• Prevent injury or illness to employees, contractors, clients and the public.

• Deliver a plant design to enable an outstanding level of HSE performance during
construction, commissioning and operation.
• Identify and control any environmental hazards.
• Identify and control any safety hazards.

3 Units of Measurement

The International System of Units (SI) will be adopted for the project.

4 Standards of Design

As a minimum, mechanical equipment and designs shall meet the requirements of the latest
edition of the standards produced by the following organisations:

AGMA American Gear Manufacturers Association

ANSI American National Standards Institute

ASME American Society of Mechanical Engineers

NACE National Association of Corrosion Engineers

5 Key Reference Project Documents

See all documents referenced in the Scope of Work (SOW) for particular equipment packages.

6 Site Climatic Conditions

For site climatic conditions, refer to 104688-01-0000-GX-DC-001 Site Conditions Design

Criteria.

7 Plant Operating Duty

The equipment should be suitable for continuous operation, all year round, under the following
conditions, without excessive noise, vibration, wear, overheating, stress or deflection. The
equipment shall be the Supplier’s standard heavy duty design suitable for the following
conditions:

• Continuous operation at the performance levels specified in the technical

specifications and data sheets.
• Continuous operation at the extremes of ambient temperature and elevation as
specified in 104688-01-0000-GX-DC-001 Site Conditions Design Criteria.
• Continuous operation in an environment containing high levels of fine abrasive dust.
• Continuous operation in a dirty, wet, corrosive environment.
• Continuous operation fully exposed to the elements.
• Periodic clean up by means of high pressure water hose.

The equipment should be designed to have a minimum operating life of 15 years. This
assumes that, even with the on-set of corrosion, the equipment will remain in a safe and
operable condition after 15 years of service. However, any parts subject to wear and regular
replacement, such as pump impellers, are excluded from this requirement. Careful
consideration should be given to the selection of materials, where components are subjected
to abrasion / corrosion, to minimize component wear rate and maintenance down-time.

Equipment shall be designed and selected to prevent undue stressed being produced by
expansion due to temperature change.

The rated capacity of an item of equipment should be stated for the most adverse demand of
the equipment, plus a suitable (design) margin to account for equipment wear. This should
apply to equipment capacity and motor power.

8 General Design Requirements
