This document is the property of the Company who will safeguard its rights according to the civil and penal provisions of the law.
The purpose of this document is to clarify the split of work between Process and Instrumentation
Departments during basic and/or detailed engineering projects.
The intent of this document is not to create a segregation of responsibilities between the two entities but
to bring a better mutual understanding between disciplines. Consequently, interfaces optimization shall
result in workflow optimization, planning and man-hours savings and ultimately competitiveness
improvement.
This document is established under the responsibility of both Head of Process Department and Head of
Instrumentation Department and subsequent revisions are subject to their approval.

Instrument n°
For each drum, the level information can be
Level 12 TIP 120 found on the process vessel data sheet through
convenient sketches and nozzles list.
PCS produces a duty specification and is
responsible for definition of:
- Flow rate range of measurement
- Operating and design conditions
- Product properties
- Measurement accuracy requirement
- Maximum pressure drop
- Sparing philosophy
Metering packages 20/23 -
INS is responsible for the package technical
management and will take care with the
vendor(s) of:
- The exact scope of supply
- Number of meter runs
- Meter run configuration and diameter
- Calibration constraints
- Detailed representation on P&IDs.
Remarks:
• No specific process data will be provided to INS for transmitters and gauges (PI, TI).
The requested data can be found in the following documents:
− in the piping line list
− in other process data sheets (equipment, instruments).
INS will be responsible for the collection of these data and the preparation of the
instrument data sheet, without any PCS checking. PCS remains available for
clarification in cases where the various information could be misleading.
• To indicate control set points, alarms and trips settings, a specific process document:
”alarm/trip set points list” will be issued (case of detailed engineering). This document
allows transmitting the information to the Data Control System (DCS) manufacturer.
The issue shall be in accordance with the project schedule (typically 2 months before
FAT). In any case, these data shall be indicated in the process guidelines for
operating manual issued on the last step of the project.
No specific checking of the final instrument database will be performed by PCS.

4.1.3 Process Flows Diagrams (PFDs) and Piping and Instrument Diagrams (P&IDs)
The Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs) allow a good understanding of the process scheme.
For that purpose, besides heat and material balance information, they include as a
minimum:
• All itemized process equipment,
• Definition of the main control principles by means of a simplified symbolization of the
main control loops.
The Piping and Instrument Diagrams (P&IDs) provide all the information for installation of
process systems. The main responsibilities are shared as follows between PCS and INS
(refer also to Work Instruction “P&ID Preparation structure” (WI-SSA-ENG-001-E)):
• Under PCS’ responsibility:
− Representation of all itemized process equipment (including stand-by)
− Process/utility lines, sizes and recommended material, line insulation, tracing and
heating requirement,
− Process requirements regarding layout (elevation, slopes, min/max length to be
considered…)
− Valves and fittings,
− Indication of all requested process instrumentation, control and safety functions…
• Under INS’ responsibility:
− Complete representation of instrumentation, control loops and safety functions,
− Numbering for instrumentation, control loops, safety interlocks…
− Safety valves type, sizes and number,
− Control valves sizes and number...
After the IFC revision of P&IDs, INS is responsible for the issue of any DCN (Design
Change Note) based on instrumentation modifications only (e.g.: control loop
representation…).
This document is the property of the Company who will safeguard its rights according to the civil and penal provisions of the law.
The reliability aspect of the overpressure protection system has to be defined during a
SIL review meeting together with the client (meeting organization by SAF similar to
HAZOP meeting). Once the SIL classification of the instrumented safety system has been
defined, a reliability study may or may not (depending on the system complexity) be
necessary to prove the adequacy of the proposed overpressure protection system (see
note). Should a reliability study be undertaken, then, this study will have to be supervised
by both PCS and INS.
