TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION NICKEL ALLOY FORGINGS (AMENDMENTS/SUPPLEMENTS TO ASTM B564) MESC SPE 76/213 February 2020 MESC SPECIFICATION DOCUMENT This document is restricted. Neither the whole nor any part of this document may be disclosed to any third party without the prior written consent of Shell Global Solutions International B.V., The Netherlands. The copyright of this document is vested in this company. All rights reserved.

MESC SPE 76/213 February 2020 Page 2 PREFACE MESC (Materials and Equipment Standards and Code) SPE documents reflect the views, at the time of publication, of: Shell Global Solutions International B.V. (Shell GSI) and/or Shell International Exploration and Production B.V. (SIEP) and/or other Shell Service Companies. They are based on the experience acquired during their involvement with the design, construction, operation and maintenance of processing units and facilities, and they are supplemented with the experience of Shell Operating Units. Where appropriate they are based on, or reference is made to, international, regional, national and industry standards. The objective is to set the recommended standard for good design and engineering practice applied by Shell companies operating an oil refinery, gas handling installation, chemical plant, oil and gas production facility, or any other such facility, and thereby to achieve maximum technical and economic benefit from standardization. The information set forth in these publications is provided to Shell companies for their consideration and decision to implement. This is of particular importance where MESC SPEs may not cover every requirement or diversity of condition at each locality. The system of MESC SPEs is expected to be sufficiently flexible to allow individual Operating Units to adapt the information set forth in MESC SPEs to their own environment and requirements. When Contractors or Manufacturers/Suppliers use MESC SPEs they shall be solely responsible for the quality of work and the attainment of the required design and engineering standards. In particular, for those requirements not specifically covered, the Principal will expect them to follow those practices, which will achieve the same level of integrity as reflected in the MESC SPEs. If in doubt, the Contractor or Manufacturer/Supplier shall, without detracting from his own responsibility, consult the Principal or its technical advisor. The right to use MESC SPEs is granted by Shell GSI, in most cases under Service Agreements primarily with Shell companies and other companies receiving technical advice and services from Shell GSI or another Shell Service Company. Consequently, three categories of users of MESC SPEs can be distinguished: 1) Operating Units having a Service Agreement with Shell GSI or other Shell Service Company. The use of MESC SPEs by these Operating Units is subject in all respects to the terms and conditions of the relevant Service Agreement. 2) Other parties who are authorized to use MESC SPEs subject to appropriate contractual arrangements (whether as part of a Service Agreement or otherwise). 3) Contractors/subcontractors and Manufacturers/Suppliers under a contract with users referred to under 1) or 2) which requires that tenders for projects, materials supplied or - generally - work performed on behalf of the said users comply with the relevant standards. Subject to any particular terms and conditions as may be set forth in specific agreements with users, Shell GSI disclaims any liability of whatsoever nature for any damage (including injury or death) suffered by any company or person whomsoever as a result of or in connection with the use, application or implementation of any MESC SPE, combination of MESC SPEs or any part thereof, even if it is wholly or partly caused by negligence on the part of Shell GSI or other Shell Service Company. The benefit of this disclaimer shall inure in all respects to Shell GSI and/or any Shell Service Company, or companies affiliated to these companies, that may issue MESC SPEs or require the use of MESC SPEs. Without prejudice to any specific terms in respect of confidentiality under relevant contractual arrangements, MESC SPEs shall not, without the prior written consent of Shell GSI, be disclosed by users to any company or person whomsoever and the MESC SPEs shall be used exclusively for the purpose for which they have been provided to the user. They shall be returned after use, including any copies, which shall only be made by users with the express prior written consent of Shell GSI. The copyright of MESC SPEs vests in Shell GSI. Users shall arrange for MESC SPEs to be held in safe custody and Shell GSI may at any time require information satisfactory to them in order to ascertain how users implement this requirement. All administrative queries should be directed to the MESC SPE Administrator in Shell GSI.
