2.3 Feeds
The following is the feed to fire water system. Fresh water to fire water storage tank
(790-T-001) is fed from fresh water tank (710-T-003). Fresh water to fresh water tank
(710-T-003) is fed from local utility company.
Fire water system will normally require no flow. However, during an emergency, all fresh
water flow from local utility company will be fed to fire water system through fresh water tank
(710-T-003). The design flow to fire water system will be based on the maximum possible flow
rate from local utility company.

drum area any
(3) Four(4) hose streams from hydrants
Operation Complex The minimum fire water requirement shall be the sum of:
/Warehouse area (1) All water sprinkler system(s) requirement activated at once, if any
/Workshop area (2) Two(2) hose streams from indoor/outdoor hydrants near building
3. PROCESS DESCRIPTION
4.3 Fire water flow control to distribution network from fire water pump
Fire water flow to fire water distribution network from fire water pump shall be controlled using
recirculation line to fire water tank. Pressure at discharge line to fire water distribution network
is monitored and flow rate on recirculation line is controlled according to monitored flow or
pressure such that fire water discharges at appropriate pressure and flow. Recirculation line
shall be designed to have sufficient size to the rated capacity of two fire water pumps.
5. SPARING PHILOSOPHY
Fire water pumps electrical motor driven (790-P-002A/B/C) shall be provided with 50% spare
and fire water jockey pump (790-P-001A/B) shall be provided with 100% spare. (HOLD 8)

7. EQUIPMENT DESIGN
7.1 Tanks
- Fire water storage tank (790-T-001)
This tank is cone roof type, made of carbon steel and is internally lined with epoxy (due to
corrosiveness of Fresh Water which has negative Langelier Saturation Index). It is equipped
with open vent. Tank capacity shall be sized to store the maximum Firewater requirement as
described in para.3.1 of this documents and four days of service water requirement according
to para 10.2 of Ichthys Onshore LNG Facilities Basis of Design, L290-AG-BOD-0001.
7.2 Pumps
- Fire water pump (790-P-002A/B/C)
Fire water pump is of the centrifugal type with the casing and impeller made of Stainless Steel
(due to corrosiveness of Fresh Water which has a negative Langelier Saturation Index). The
pump is sized based on the maximum fire water requirement as described in para. 3.1 of this
document.
- Fire water jockey pump (790-P-001A/B)
Fire water jockey pump is a centrifugal type with the casing and impeller made of Stainless
Steel (due to corrosiveness of Fresh Water which has a negative Langelier Saturation Index).
The rated capacity of pump shall be approximately 57 m3/hr based on the capacity of one
hose stream.
- Sea water pumps (790-P-011A/B/C)
Sea water pump is of the centrifugal type with the casing and impeller made of the material for
sea water intake. The pump is sized based on the fire water requirement for condensate tank
fire as described in para. 3.1 of this document.
One of stand-by fire water pumps will start sequentially at interval set at 5 to 10 seconds if ring
main pressure remains below a set pressure. Another remaining pump shall be initiated
manually considering that emergency diesel generator has the capacity for 2 x 100% capacity
of fire water pumps and more than two (2) fire water pumps shall not be started during
electrical power supply by emergency diesel generator.
According to the requirements above, the firewater start-up sequence shall be defined as
below.
- 790-P-001A (Fire water jockey pump) : running continuously
- 790-P-002A (Fire water pump) : Initiate without any time delay below the set pressure
- 790-P-002B (Fire water pump) : Initiate at 5-10 seconds interval after 790-P-002A
initiated below the set pressure
- 790-P-002C (Fire water pump): Normally in manual position. Initiate by manual
operation after other pump failure and the condition of electrical power supply are
confirmed
All fire water pumps are independent of each other. If any fire water pump should fail to start,
the remaining pump shall be initiated by manual operation as above.
Fire water Jockey pumps are started/stopped manually at pump and remotely in CCR.
All fire water pumps are started manually at pump and remotely in CCR. However, fire water
pumps are only stopped at pumps locally and manually from the local pump control panel
upon personnel confirmation that fire fighting operation are already completed.
- Sea water back up
At the normal condition, the feed line of sea water intake is closed with remote-operated
motor-driven isolation valve.
At the emergency condition of fire water exhaustion in fire water storage tank and service
water storage tank, isolation valve will be opened manually and locally or remotely in CCR.
After isolation valve will be opened, each sea water pump will be actuated locally and
manually at pump or remotely in CCR.
Provision shall be made for future connections to the fire main system such that there is
minimal outage of the fire water system. For example, headers shall be terminated with bolted
flanges rather than welded ends. For future expansion of the plant, fire main piping shall
terminate with flanges at the possible expansion locations.
