2. Background [I] The ExxonMobil Engineering Practices System (EMEPS) serves as a central repository for the most current engineering standards and practices across Upstream and Refining/Chemicals organizations, or business sectors. The GPs that make up the EMEPS library are a compilation of the best practices from these organizations. GPs that specifically apply to the Refining/Chemicals organizations have been identified and are listed in the Refining/Chemicals Business Sector directory on the EMEPS web site. The GPs on this list are owned and/or endorsed for use by the Refining/Chemicals organizations.
3. Applicability 1) [I] The GPs define minimum acceptable criteria for the design, fabrication, procurement, erection, inspection, testing, and operation of plants and equipment. They shall be applied to new facilities and new components of existing facilities. Because these practices are always evolving, existing facilities may not meet the requirements of current GPs. Unless otherwise noted, the GPs are not retroactive and there is no intention for the GPs to require modification of existing facilities. Also, unless otherwise noted, the decision to modify existing facilities can be made only on a case-by-case basis within the OIMS and EMCAPS framework. The clear exceptions to these two statements are GPs tagged as Tier 1 and Tier 2 Best Practice requirements. An example of case-by-case decisions is during knowledge-based HAZOPs for existing facilities, a risk assessment is performed to assess any deviation from the GPs to determine the need for the associated safeguard. 2) [I] The intent of the GPs is to meet or exceed applicable regulatory requirements and embody responsible requirements when regulations do not exist. 3) [I] The following list of documents is used in descending order of precedence in establishing applicable requirements if and when a conflict of specification arises: a) Local, state, and federal laws, rules, and regulations b) Contract or purchase order c) Letters of instructions d) Coordination procedures e) Design specifications and drawings f) Project-specific Practices, taking into laws, rules, and regulations applicable to the geographic locale of the Job (see Item (7 below on Regional Practices) g) Global Practices 4) [I] The GPs are developed, modified, or reaffirmed based on sound engineering concepts consistent with recognized industry codes and standards. The latest findings from current industry practices, as well as Company field experience and lessons learned (including safety, operational/maintenance, and economic considerations), should be taken into . 5) [I] Physical security and environmental aspect implications are incorporated into the development of each GP. They are also included in Job-specific Specifications based on local and governmental regulations.

6) [I] Detailed Human Factors are discussed in GP 17-05-01. Appropriate human factors content is also incorporated into individual GPs. 7) [I] Nothing in this material is intended to override the corporate separateness of local entities. Working relationships discussed in this material do not necessarily represent a reporting connection, but may reflect a functional guidance, stewardship, or service relationship. Where shareholder consideration of a local entity matter is contemplated by this material, responsibility for action remains with the local entity. The corporation, company, , ExxonMobil, Exxon, Mobil, Esso, our, we, and its, as used in this material, may refer to ExxonMobil Corporation, to one of its divisions, or to the companies d with ExxonMobil Corporation, or to any one or more of the foregoing. The shorter are used merely for convenience and simplicity.
4. Additional Requirements 1) [I] GP requirements covered by Tier 1, 2 (T1, 2) Best Practices are listed below. a) GP content covered by Tier 1, 2 Best Practices is identified in respective paragraphs and listed in Table titled "GP Requirements Covered by Tier 1, 2 Best Practices." b) [A] Any deviation from the requirements contained in GP paragraphs with Tier 1, 2 content requires formal review and endorsement according to the process established by the Global Manufacturing Leadership Council (GMLC). This is in addition to the GP Purpose Code review/endorsement process. 2) [I] The codes, standards, specifications, and publications upon which a GP is based are listed in that GP with electronic links, if available. The total content of these referenced documents and their ing referenced documents are considered applicable, unless specifically modified by the GP. If a job is contracted, the latest edition of these references in publication on the initial date of issue of the Practice portion of the Job Specification shall be used unless otherwise specified. For individual equipment purchases for other than project work, the latest edition of these references in publication on the date of the Purchase Order shall be used, unless otherwise specified. It is the Purchaser's responsibility to specify the edition to be used. 3) [I] Local rules and regulations of countries may not be covered by a GP. It is recognized that these may be more stringent than, or different from, the requirements of the GPs or the Job Specification. Vendors of equipment, materials, and services must comply with all applicable local rules or regulations. Contractors are advised to consult the Job Specification or the Owner's Engineer concerning local rules and regulations. 4) [A] [I] Deviations from these GPs dictated by local/operating conditions are acceptable only when approved in writing by the Owner's Engineer; the Owner's Engineer is responsible for establishing a procedure for approving and recording all deviations.

2. Background [I] The ExxonMobil Engineering Practices System (EMEPS) serves as a central repository for the most current engineering standards and practices across Upstream and Refining/Chemicals organizations, or business sectors. The GPs that make up the EMEPS library are a compilation of the best practices from these organizations. GPs that specifically apply to the Refining/Chemicals organizations have been identified and are listed in the Refining/Chemicals Business Sector directory on the EMEPS web site. The GPs on this list are owned and/or endorsed for use by the Refining/Chemicals organizations.
3. Applicability 1) [I] The GPs define minimum acceptable criteria for the design, fabrication, procurement, erection, inspection, testing, and operation of plants and equipment. They shall be applied to new facilities and new components of existing facilities. Because these practices are always evolving, existing facilities may not meet the requirements of current GPs. Unless otherwise noted, the GPs are not retroactive and there is no intention for the GPs to require modification of existing facilities. Also, unless otherwise noted, the decision to modify existing facilities can be made only on a case-by-case basis within the OIMS and EMCAPS framework. The clear exceptions to these two statements are GPs tagged as Tier 1 and Tier 2 Best Practice requirements. An example of case-by-case decisions is during knowledge-based HAZOPs for existing facilities, a risk assessment is performed to assess any deviation from the GPs to determine the need for the associated safeguard. 2) [I] The intent of the GPs is to meet or exceed applicable regulatory requirements and embody responsible requirements when regulations do not exist. 3) [I] The following list of documents is used in descending order of precedence in establishing applicable requirements if and when a conflict of specification arises: a) Local, state, and federal laws, rules, and regulations b) Contract or purchase order c) Letters of instructions d) Coordination procedures e) Design specifications and drawings f) Project-specific Practices, taking into laws, rules, and regulations applicable to the geographic locale of the Job (see Item (7 below on Regional Practices) g) Global Practices 4) [I] The GPs are developed, modified, or reaffirmed based on sound engineering concepts consistent with recognized industry codes and standards. The latest findings from current industry practices, as well as Company field experience and lessons learned (including safety, operational/maintenance, and economic considerations), should be taken into . 5) [I] Physical security and environmental aspect implications are incorporated into the development of each GP. They are also included in Job-specific Specifications based on local and governmental regulations.

6) [I] Detailed Human Factors are discussed in GP 17-05-01. Appropriate human factors content is also incorporated into individual GPs. 7) [I] Nothing in this material is intended to override the corporate separateness of local entities. Working relationships discussed in this material do not necessarily represent a reporting connection, but may reflect a functional guidance, stewardship, or service relationship. Where shareholder consideration of a local entity matter is contemplated by this material, responsibility for action remains with the local entity. The corporation, company, , ExxonMobil, Exxon, Mobil, Esso, our, we, and its, as used in this material, may refer to ExxonMobil Corporation, to one of its divisions, or to the companies d with ExxonMobil Corporation, or to any one or more of the foregoing. The shorter are used merely for convenience and simplicity.
4. Additional Requirements 1) [I] GP requirements covered by Tier 1, 2 (T1, 2) Best Practices are listed below. a) GP content covered by Tier 1, 2 Best Practices is identified in respective paragraphs and listed in Table titled "GP Requirements Covered by Tier 1, 2 Best Practices." b) [A] Any deviation from the requirements contained in GP paragraphs with Tier 1, 2 content requires formal review and endorsement according to the process established by the Global Manufacturing Leadership Council (GMLC). This is in addition to the GP Purpose Code review/endorsement process. 2) [I] The codes, standards, specifications, and publications upon which a GP is based are listed in that GP with electronic links, if available. The total content of these referenced documents and their ing referenced documents are considered applicable, unless specifically modified by the GP. If a job is contracted, the latest edition of these references in publication on the initial date of issue of the Practice portion of the Job Specification shall be used unless otherwise specified. For individual equipment purchases for other than project work, the latest edition of these references in publication on the date of the Purchase Order shall be used, unless otherwise specified. It is the Purchaser's responsibility to specify the edition to be used. 3) [I] Local rules and regulations of countries may not be covered by a GP. It is recognized that these may be more stringent than, or different from, the requirements of the GPs or the Job Specification. Vendors of equipment, materials, and services must comply with all applicable local rules or regulations. Contractors are advised to consult the Job Specification or the Owner's Engineer concerning local rules and regulations. 4) [A] [I] Deviations from these GPs dictated by local/operating conditions are acceptable only when approved in writing by the Owner's Engineer; the Owner's Engineer is responsible for establishing a procedure for approving and recording all deviations.

A
Assigned to paragraphs that require approval from the Owner's Engineer before the work may proceed or the design is finalized.
C
Assigned to paragraphs whose primary purpose is reduced costs. Reduced cost in this context refers to initial investment cost and does not include life cycle cost considerations. Life cycle cost considerations are captured under reliability, maintainability, or operability purpose codes.
E
Assigned to paragraphs whose primary purpose is driven by environmental considerations. Environmental considerations typically include specifications intended to protect against emissions/leakage to the air, water, and/or soil. Deviations from the specifications contained in such paragraphs require formal review and approval according to local environmental policy.
