A bleed line is provided from drill water pump discharge to drill water pontoon tank, to prevent the pump
from overheating under zero flow condition.

A branch from the drill water header with flow meter installed is provided to mud pits via mud charging
pump suction. Other users of drill water are mud pump liner tanks, fresh water cooling expansion tanks,
drill floor cooling expansion tank, BOP & diverter control system, cement unit area, tween deck water mist
and service outlets on the lower deck, main deck, and drill floor areas.

STARTING AIR SYSTEM

The starting air system provides starting air with sufficient redundancy to the main engines. The starting air
system is in full compliance with Classification (ABS) and Regulatory (IMO MODU Code and DMA)
requirements.

System description:

Two electrically driven start air compressors provide air to start air receivers. One start air compressor is
located in Aft/Port Compressor Room #1 and other is located in Aft/Stbd Compressor Room #2. Two start
air receivers are located in Aft/Port Compressor Room #1 and other two are located in Aft/Stbd
Compressor Room #2.
Cross-over line with normally open valve is provided between the two start air compressor discharge lines.
Therefore the two start air compressors fill any of the start air receivers.

Operating pressure in the starting air receivers is maintained between 22-30 bar by stop/start of the start air
compressors based on low/high pressure of the start air receivers.

Aft/Port start air receivers outlet provides air to the start air system and rig saver system of the 4 Aft/Port
main generators. Same is the case for the Stbd side. A cross-over line with normally closed valve provides
the flexibility to use the Port side start air receivers for Stbd side generators and vice versa.

Start air compressors and start air receivers are sized to meet the Class requirements. Start air receivers
(4x50%) are sized at 2m3 each; this provides sufficient air for 12 generator starts without replenishment.
Start air compressors(2x100%) are sized at 66Nm3/h each; this is sufficient to fill two start air receivers
from atmospheric pressure to 30 bar in 1 hour.

BULK AIR SYSTEM

Objective of the system is to provide service air and bulk air to various utilities on the rig. The system is
also in full compliance with the applicable Classification (ABS) and Regulatory (IMO MODU Code and
DMA) requirements.

System description:

Two service air compressors located in Aft/Port Compressor Room #1 provide service air to the service air
receiver at a pressure of 10 barg. Air from the service air receiver is routed to two service air dryers also
located in Aft/Port Compressor Room #1 where the air is filtered and dried to a dew point of 30C at
operating pressure. The dried air is routed to the service air ring header.

Identical configuration of two service air compressors, one service air receiver and two service air dryers is
located in Aft/Stbd Compressor Room #2. The dried air from the Aft/Stbd Compressor Room #2 dryers is
also routed to the service air ring header.

A cross-over line between the compressor discharge headers in the Aft/Port and Aft/Stbd Compressor
rooms provides the flexibility to align the Aft/Port compressors to the Aft/Stbd air receivers and air dryers
or vice versa.

Individual users take service air from the service air ring header.

Main users of service air are air bilge pump, ballast pumps primer, bilge pumps primer, potable water
pumps primer, tank gauging panels, thruster pressurised header tank control panel, thruster holding brake
pneumatic panel, seachest for blow, oily water separator, remote control valve cabinets, deck drain unit,
main generator lube oil transfer pumps, pneumatic mud drain pump, waster lube oil transfer pump, mud
pump lube oil transfer pump, portable pump lube oil drum, sand trap tank pneumatic pumps, portable barrel
pump for mud pump lube oil drum, tank washing system, cement unit air receiver, portable lube oil pump
for emergency generator lube oil drum, helifuel pump, derrick equipment, drill floor equipment and service
air outlets all over the rig.

The service air ring header also supplies air to the bulk air system through the bulk air receiver through. A
backpressure regulator in the inlet line to the bulk air receiver ensures that abnormal demand in bulk air
system does not reduce the pressure of the service air header. Air from the bulk air receiver is routed to a
pressure reducing station that lowers the pressure to 4.5-6 barg and supplies air to the bulk air system.

The service air ring header also supplies air to the pneumatic cutting transfer system through the cutting
blower air receiver. A backpressure regulator in the inlet line to the cutting blower air receiver ensures that
abnormal demand in bulk air system does not reduce the pressure of the service air header.

The service air ring header also supplies air to the drill floor air receiver. The drill floor air receiver
supplies service air to all the derrick and drill floor equipment.
