Page 7 of 10 Chemical Analysis The chemical composition of the pipe material should be determined using an appropriate method to validate the pipe specification and grade, as well as, to determine its carbon equivalent (for weldability issues). Spectrochemical methods (i.e. optical emission) are usually employed to determine steel chemical compositions. Wet chemical methods may also be used. Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and either x-ray diffraction (XRD) or x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses may be used to determine elements and compounds present in surface deposits that were collected during the visual examination. .

Page 10 of 10 Table 2 – A testing methodology for generating Charpy V-notch Curves for line pipe steels Note: The following is an example test protocol to generate a Charpy V-notch (CVN) Curve and to determine the Ductile-to-Brittle Transition Temperature (DBTT) for API-X52 and lower grade line pipe. Prepare a minimum of 12 Charpy V-notch specimens (preferably 16 specimens) in the L-T (transverse) direction and perform CVN testing according to ASTM E23. Test 1 specimen at -20°F Test 1 specimen at 0°F If CVN values are less than 4 ft-lbs. (full scale), then consider this a part of the lower shelf temperatures Test 1 specimen at 70°F Test 1 specimen at 100°F If CVN values are greater than 20 ft-lbs. and are close together, then consider this part of the upper shelf temperatures. If the difference in CVN values is more than 5 ft-lbs., then: Test 1 specimen at 70°F Test 1 specimen at 50°F If CVN values are close together, then the DBTT is likely to be around 50°F, then: Test 1 specimen at 50°F Test 1 specimen at 40°F Test 1 specimen at 20°F If the difference in CVN values at 50°F and 70°F is greater than 5ft-lbs., then Test 1 specimen at 50°F Test 1 specimen at 60°F Test the remaining specimens at other temperatures, as appropriate, to ensure that data has been collected at temperatures that the testing has shown to be of importance. Draw the CVN Curve to a best-fit curve plotting Impact Energy (ft-lbs.) versus Temperature (°F). Determine the DBTT from the CVN Curve (in °F). Determine the Temperature (in °F) corresponding to 15 ft-lbs. absorbed impact energy. Determine the Fracture Appearance Transition Temperature (in °F) corresponding to 50% and/or 80% shear. Determine the Upper-Shelf Energy (in ft-lbs.). Determine the Lower-Shelf Energy (in ft-lbs) Metallurgical Laboratory Failure Examination Protocol 01/06/2004

Mutual Aid Partners EFG does not currently have formal mutual aid agreements in place. Previous attempts to enter into formal mutual aid agreements with other pipeline operators have been unsuccessful. It is anticipated that in an emergency other pipeline operators would offer assistance therefore the following table contains contact information for pipeline operators that could be contacted for assistance.

Engineers and Consultants Depending on the nature of the emergency additional expertise may be required to analyze the incident and to help develop a procedure that will safely mitigate the emergency condition on a temporary and/or permanent basis. The table below contains contact information for engineering firms that can be utilized when additional expertise is required.

Material Failure It shall be reported to Management whenever a piece of material fails to comply with the standards to which it was originally purchased under, or fails to perform the function for which it was intended. Management shall initiate the failure investigation. When an investigation is to be conducted, the failed material shall be removed with care being taken not to damage or distort the item. The item will then be examined to determine the cause of failure, and a report shall be filed on the results of the examination and possible ways of preventing a recurrence of the failure. The Custody Transfer Record shall be used to document the chain of custody of the material as it is transported to the appropriate testing facility. As appropriate the Metallurgical Examination Protocol can be used as a guide to determine the probable causes of failure. US Canada Materials Evaluation and Engineering Inc.
