1. INTRODUCTION:
1.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Eni Tunisia BV intends to construct an onshore gas-processing facility plant as part of Maamoura & BARAKA
offshore fields development Project.
Hydrocarbon gas and liquids brought onshore via two subsea pipelines will be treated at an onshore gas-
processing facility at MAAMOURA Point. Liquids (condensate and LPG) will be separated, processed and
stored. The produced sales gas and after treatment (acid gas removal, dehydration, wobbe index control) will be
transported via pipeline to a tie-in point to an existing 10” pipeline north west of Hammamet, owned by STEG,
the National Electricity and Gas Company.
The onshore gas-processing facility will be designed for a nominal design life of 20 years, with an approximate
processing capacity of 0.85 MMSm3/day gas and associated liquids around 2000 m3/day, obtained through the
installation of one single train. The CPF will serve the following purposes:
- Associated wet gas will be sweated by gas acid removal, dehydrated, and stripped of heavy
hydrocarbons to sales quality specifications and compressed prior to be exported;
- Condensate and LPG will be recovered and stored prior to be sold and transferred by trucking.
- The produced water and the water used for oil washing is collected and treated in a suitable
waste water treatment plant before to be transported by truck for injection in Belli Water
disposal well.
- Utilities and buildings will be constructed to support base operations.
This specification covers the general criteria regarding site preparation, earthwork, fill materials and subgrade
materials.

3. ROADS:
3.1 CONSISTENCY AND DESCRIPTION OF WORK:
Where required by frequent pedestrian access, the roads shall also include curbs and sidewalks. Roadside 1 m
wide shall be provided each side.
The maximum longitudinal slope shall be 5% maximum, while transversal slope shall be 2%.
The various layers of roadways will be defined in the plans of the transversely standard profiles, the structure to
be adopted will be:
- Sub-grade,
- Sub-base minimum 150 mm thickness,
- Base course minimum 150 mm thickness,
- Application of cutback asphalt 1.2 l/m2,
- A binder course 40 mm thickness out of Asphaltic concrete,
- Application of cutback asphalt 0.35 l/m2,
- Wearing course: final hot rolled asphalt 30 mm thickness.
This term indicates the existing ground level or embankment or cut prepared ready to receive the road sub-base.
3.2.2 Sub-base
The sub-base consists of granular, free draining material such as sand, clinker, gravel, or quarry materials. The
material shall be free from vegetable matter and other unsuitable material in accordance with ASTM D1241. The
gradation of the material shall be such that it can be compacted readily under watering and rolling to a firm,
stable base. The maximum size of material shall not be greater than 25mm. In addition, not more than 25% of
the material by weight shall pass a No.200 sieve. Material shall be uniformly compacted to at least 95% of its
proctor maximum dry density in accordance with ASTM D1557.

The base course material shall be crushed aggregate or crushed slag in accordance with ASTM D1241 and
uniformly compacted to at least 95% of its proctor maximum dry density in accordance with ASTM D 1557.
The type of base-course which shall be adopted is Crushed stone (semi-open base):
• The crushed stone shall consist of clean, though, durable fragments free from an excess of flat,
elongated, soft or disintegrated places. The material must have sharp edges and show form sizes in the
different directions; when it is made by crushing gravel, the elements must prevailingly show surfaces
obtained by crushing, rather than rounded surfaces, and their shape shall not be too elongated or flat.
• The material shall be spread in regular and form layers; the height of the layer to be rolled in one time
must not exceed 15 cm of loose material. The rolling operation shall be continued until the surface is
properly compacted and closed, and the single elements are steady and approached one to the other, and
no sag or motion appear when the road roller is travelling on the surface.
When the rolling operation is over, road bed must have the shape and gradients show in the construction
drawing. The allowable tolerance for unevenness shall not exceed 1.5 cm measured by a 3 meter straight edge.
- The asphalt concrete shall be prepared in accordance with ASTM specification D3515 and shall comprise a
binder course on which is laid a wearing course.
- The material and the mixtures shall be as follows:
a. Asphaltic cement shall be as per table 1 of ASTM D946 with a penetration grade of 60-70 unless otherwise
specified on the construction drawings.
The quantity of asphaltic cement shall not be less than 4% in weight of total mixture but in any case according to
table 3 of ASTM D3515 depending on design mixture.
b. Aggregates shall be of approved crushed stone, crushed slag or crushed gravel according to ASTM D692
(Coarse aggregate) and ASTM D1073 (fine aggregate).
c. Mineral Filler

Mineral filler shall consist of lime stone or other stone dust, portland cement, hydrated lime or other insert
nonplastic mineral matter from approved source.
Mineral fillers shall be thoroughly dry and free from lumps or aggregates of fine particles it shall conform to the
grading requirements in the followings table:
The plasticity index as determined by AASHTO T90 shall be a maximum of 2. The amount of filler to be added
shall be only that amount which is necessary to the grading requirements for the completed mixture prescribed.

0. 60 (No.30) 100
The bituminous mixtures for both binder course and wearing course shall be composed basically of coarse
aggregate, fine aggregate mineral filler, and bituminous material (asphaltic cement). The several mineral
constituents shall be sized, uniformly graded and combined in such proportions that the resulting blend meets
the grading requirements for the specific type under contract. To such composite blended aggregate (considered
as 100% by weight) shall be added asphalt cement within the percentage limits set in the specification for the
specific type.
The requirements for the bituminous mixtures shall conform to gradings shown in table (1) below:

No bituminous material shall be manufactured until a job-mix formula has been submitted by the Contractor and
approved by the Engineer. The formula shall indicate the exact percentage of each sieve fraction and the exact
percentage of bitumen to be used in the mixture and the mix temperature. The Contractor will be allowed the
