Chevron's JSM Deepwater Pipeline Repair System (PRS) project was initiated in 2010. The scope of the project is to procure a deepwater PRS, similar to the one procured for Petronius and Tahiti from 2007 to 2010, dedicated to the JSM oil export pipeline.

The JSM PRS will be capable of repairing up to 200-foot sections of damaged 24" pipeline in water depths up to 10,000 feet. The system equipment consists primarily of pipeline lifting, indexing and alignment equipment, diverless pipeline sleeve connectors, a cut/bevel/FBE removal multi-purpose combination tool and a repair section of pipe. This equipment can be utilized to perform a repair in which the damaged section of pipeline is cut and removed, a repair spool is lowered and aligned with the pipeline and, after connecting the repair spool to the pipeline, the pipeline is lowered to the seabed. Additionally, a diverless split sleeve type repair clamp will be procured for the repair of smaller, localized pipeline damage.

CTI personnel shall be integrated into the Chevron Project Team to provide project management support, engineering support, and general technical support throughout the entire project. Specific responsibilities for CTI personnel working on the project includes the following:

• Create technical RFQ package documentation
• Evaluate the technical bids to recommend a vendor
• Manage the chosen vendor to ensure schedule and budget compliance
• Provide technical assistance during the bidding process, procurement process, engineering, fabrication/manufacturing, SIT, DQT
• Provide all drafting and document control support required by the project team
