LOAD - OUT PLAN/PROCEDURE

1.0 INTRODUCTIONCLIENT), acting on its behalf as Technical Partner and on behalf of its partners CONTRACTOR A, andCONTRACTOR B, intend to develop the Akepo Field at OML-90.

The existing Akepo- 1 well is located at Lat N 05 deg 15 18.837 Long E 05 deg 16 34.894. Thisexploratory well has recently been re-entered, tested and completed. At the present level ofcompletion, the well has been installed with a free standing 30-inch conductor, with a Christmastree at the top end. There is no other structure at the well location presently.

CONTRACTOR with its partner CONTRACTOR C has been awarded a contract to undertake

Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) for the design, materials procurement,fabrication / construction, and installation of the Akepo wellhead deck structure, process pipingand its pipelines to tie-in at the Crude Processing Facility (CPF) installed within NAOC BeneboyeFlowstation perimeter.

The Plan in conjunction with CONTRACTORs HSE Plan shall ensure that Loss Prevention ismaximized during the Load-Out phase of the project.

The Load-Out activities shall be performed from Onne CONTRACTOR Cs pipe storage toCONTRACTORs Worji Base Yard, where all materials and equipment shall be assembled and

subsequently loaded out from to project sites via the jetty to the Work/Lay Barge at the openCalabar River using the Utility barges and Trucks.

Particular emphasis has been made to ensure harmonious Security network within, around, theload-out jetty, Mid River, and en-route Worji, Warri and Offshore.

2.0 SCOPE2.1 This procedure defines the minimum requirement, methods to be applied and

equipment to be used during the Load-Out and Sea-Fastening of the Equipment,Facilities, and Pre-fabrication on transportation Truck, Vessel/Craft using Cranes.

2.2 CONTRACTOR shall use Cranes, Trucks, and Flat top barges to Load-Out all fabricatedstructures.

3.0 DEFINITIONS3.1 Load-outLoad-out is the process of moving and materials and/or structures from Onne CONTRACTORCs pipe storage to CONTRACTORs Worji Base Yard, Warri and Offshore3.2 Sea-FasteningSea-Fastening is the process of installation of tie-down braces in such a way as to minimizedamage to the Linepipes, Equipment or Structure on the vehicle or water craft to provide a

safe tie-down system during Load-out.
