3 Introduction to GSA Founded in 1992, GSA celebrated 20 years of success in 2012 Our Unique Selling Point A Process Engineering-Led Consultancy Our Core Products: Feasibility Studies FEED Studies/Basic Engineering Packages Detailed Process Design Process Safety Consultancy Services Cofely Fabricom GDF SUEZ acquired GSA in 2010 and a successful period of integration, including several joint projects, is now complete. Combined projects include: Nippon Gohsei, Hull. Debottleneck Tata Research, Middlesbrough. New R&D Gasifier CPI, Wilton. Fermenter mods GSA s new engineering office in Stokesley, Teesside was opened in 2012 by MP Ian Swales. Due to be opened officially in 2013 is a new North West office in Liverpool.

4 Introduction to GSA Core Products Feasibility Studies Technology, Commercial, Hazard and Environmental studies to confirm feasibility or identify preferred options. Production of order of magnitude capital cost estimates to confirm commercial viability. Conceptual Engineering Establishment of Process Engineering concepts based on best available technology, improving cost and schedule estimate for financial assessments and approval. Basic Engineering (FEED) Development of process concept up to P&ID status, including heat and mass balances, equipment datasheets, HAZOP safety reviews, project QRA s, plot plans etc. to facilitate accurate cost and schedule estimates. Detailed Design Detailed design of the process plant, including procurement specifications for all equipment, construction drawings for all mechanical, piping, civils and buildings, plus electrical, instrumentation and control/safety systems. Process Safety Consultancy Multi-stage hazard studies, Hazard and Operability Review (HAZOP), Safety Integrity Level (SIL) Determination and Verification, Alarm Management, Hazardous Area Classification (ATEX), Hazardous Substance Assessment (DSEAR/COSHH), Major Accident Potential Assessment (COMAH), Occupied Building Assessments

5 Engineering Tools In-house Engineering Tools: AutoCAD for drawing SmartPlant by Intergraph for intelligent design (P&ID, Instrumentation, 3D pipework) Aspen for process simulation (HYSYS) and more including: Flare network modelling Heat Exchanger rating and design Capital cost estimation Reactor design Heat exchanger network modelling Many others Cirrus for dispersion and blast modelling ADMS for dispersion modelling AFT Fathom for piping network analysis PHA Pro for Hazop administration HAZOP Manager by Lihou for HAZOP administration Extensive library of books, standards and articles both hard copy and electronic

6 Introduction to SmartPlant Features GSA has recently invested in Intergraph s Smartplant P&ID, Smartplant Instrumentation and Smartplant 3D. These packages are a significant investment for company. Benefits to our clients include: Reduction in design hours due to data integration Clash free design Improved safety Accurate MTO Change & Impact Management Improved deliverables for construction Significant reduction in data handover time Data rich handover for plant operations Ability to workshare projects across offices Prove constructability and maintenance repair work Full integration with Laser scanning Reference in existing plant 3D Models The package also includes CAESAR II to conduct pipe stress analysis These reports are produced in an efficient manner, saving time, money and cost in regards to checking and approvals.

7 Features SmartPlant 3D can produce a good visual representation of designs. SmartPlant utilises industry standard tools for plant operators e.g. SmartPlant Instrumentation (INtools) and SmartPlant P&ID. There is a significant value to the owner to adopt these tools and take delivery of the GSA databases reducing handover costs and providing a rich data centric system to manage plant operations. Engineering represents only a small percentage of overall project costs, but it has a significant impact on construction & procurement costs. Ensuring accuracy at this key first stage could produce significant cost savings during construction & procurement.

8 Benefits SmartPlant addresses all identified engineering information requirements Provides a single source of accurate, complete and validated data Ensures that all drawings, equipment lists and reports contain consistent information Design Tools to enable efficient, automated generation of deliverables Consistency of data across disciplines Quality and completeness Supports the full lifecycle of a project
