Vessel speed to be reduced to avoid draft increase due to SQUAT effect. b. All vessels navigating within the shallow area must have a large scale of latest edition of drawing ADNOC Offshore A1-299-V-0002 1 & ADNOC Offshore AD102-27-BAT-602 (SCALE 1:25000). c. Vessel Route to be drawn on Field Chart (ADNOC Offshore A1-299-V-0002 1 & ADNOC Offshore AD102-27-BAT-60237 1) SCALE 1:25000 To ensure safe passage around Isolated Danger Buoys in the areas and Pipeline crossings. d. Masters and Mates to pay special attention to the Isolated danger Buoys location and their proximity to pipeline crossing. Several are not placed directly over the isolated danger. They may be offset by a distance and some of them are used as perimeter buoys. e. Zakum field draft and shallow water check list to be obtained from MCC and filled in and resubmitted to MCC. f. MCC permission must be obtained prior to entry. 7.6.4 Moorings, Das & Zirku Islands and Fields. Water depths are less than charted by about 1.5 m (4.9ft), which is the height of the average gravity anchor, within a radius of 30 m (98.4ft) of most mooring buoys. Masters shall take this into account when navigating in shallow water areas. 7.6.5 Sounding Reduction, near Zakum Central Water depths are less than charted by 2.7 m (8.9ft) from Chart Datum at the jump-over point of the 30” flare line. An isolated danger buoy is located close southeast of the jump- over and marks this obstruction. Masters shall keep away from this area at all times. 7.6.6 Southeast of Zakum Central is an area of draft restriction through which Masters should not transit unless absolutely necessary. Vessels required to enter the above area for operational reasons are restricted to a maximum operational draft of 3.7 m (12ft). All rig moves will be subject to limitations imposed by the tidal conditions expected at the time, the route available and the ADNOC Offshore Rig Mover. The area is enclosed by the following boundary: From ZCSC, ZS-25, ZS-62, ZK-3, ZK-109, PS-77, ZK-84, ZK-95, ZS-5, ZK-11, Al Ghallan island, ZK-237, To ZCSC.

The area is enclosed by two borders: a1. South border From Asseifiya Island, ZK-38, IDB-R, ISD S, and Al Ghallan Island. a2. North border From Asseifiya Island, IDB-C, IDB-O, IDB-N, IDB-F, IDB-M, IDB-L, IDB-K and Al Ghallan Island. b. It is strictly prohibited for vessels to cross the above restricted area (pipelines corridor). Only special dedicated marine units are allowed to operate in such restricted zone subject to risk assessment and valid dispensation / permission from ADNOC Offshore marine authority and with clear communication and coordination with MCC at site. c. Rig and barge move marine spread, projects vessels, special purpose survey vessels and dive support anchor handling vessels with critical draft, size and function must operate based on risk assessment with all necessary safe routes, plans and approaches carefully reviewed and approved by the concerned ADNOC Offshore marine authority. Isolated danger buoy placed in the south east shallow water area are placed in close proximity to the pipeline crossings and therefore mariners are instructed to refer to the latest edition of the filed drawing. (ADNOC Offshore A1-299-V-0002 1 & ADNOC Offshore AD102-27-BAT-60237 1) SCALE 1:25000 when navigating in close proximity. Further IDB markers are also used as perimeter marker of the No navigation area. Strict adherence to these rules is expected from all vessels. 7.6.7 Vessel speed to be reduced to avoid draft increase due to squat especially in shallow water. Masters must follow the shallow water checklist for any navigation within the shallow water area. All Vessels shall navigate with extreme caution and to utilize all available means to make their safe route within the field with optimum speed and underwater keel clearance in relation to the reduced water depth impacted by subsea installation including tidal and sea wave’s conditions particularly in close vicinity of pipelines crossings. 7.6.8 Other open water areas, under ADNOC control and operated by the ADNOC Offshore, have mud line suspensions reducing water depths by up to 5.8 m (19ft). The International Cardinal Buoy System marks these areas and is listed as follows: a. Ish Well Nr.1 in position Lat. 24o 14.6’ N., Long. 52o 47.3’ E. b. Umm Lulu Well Nr.5 in position Lat. 24o 31.6’ N., Long. 54o 04.8’ E. c. Bu Hasser Well No. 1 in position Lat. 24o 59.1’ N., Long. 52o 57.0’ E d. Bu Hasser Well No. 2 in position Lat. 25o 03.5’ N., Long. 52o 57.0’ E 7.7 Flares Flare towers are installed in the Designated Areas. Some flares are automatic or semi- automatic and unlit flares may light automatically, or are lit, without warning. Vessels and work boats should keep a minimum of 300 m away from all flare structures at all times. In addition to the flares listed below, flaring may also take place from drill rigs and production test vessels. 7.7.1 Das Island Flares Issue Date: September-2018 Page 27 of 205 Copyright © 2018 Abu Dhabi Company for Offshore Petroleum Operations Ltd– ADNOC Offshore. All rights reserved ADNOC Offshore Standing Instructions for Marine Operations (SIMO) MSMS-06-SIMO (Rev.4) Five near-shore flares are located in an arc approximately 0.7 miles north of Das Island. An additional flare is located close to shore and due south of the flares mentioned above. All of the flares as referred to above are within the Das Island ‘Restricted Area No.1,’ which is detailed below in clause 7.8.2.1. Numerous flares are situated onshore near the northern coast of Das Island. 7.7.2 Satah Field Flare Satah flare is located about 0.65 miles southwest of Zirku Island. 7.7.3 Umm Al Dalkh Field Flare Umm Al Dalkh flare is located close southeast of the UAD Complex. 7.7.4 Umm Shaif Field Flares Umm Shaif Field has six flares, three located close together about 0.5 miles South-South- West of USSC. Two flares are located about 1.0 mile S of USSC and the sixth is located about 0.5 miles ESE of CP-1 platform. 7.7.5 Zakum Field Flares Flares on Zakum Field are located as follows: a. 1 flare close northwest of Zakum West Satellite (ZWS), b. 4 flares in an arc about 0.5 miles East of Zakum Western Super Complex (ZWSC), c. 2 flares about 0.5 miles Southeast of Zakum Central Complex (ZCC), d. 2 flares in a line about 0.2 and 0.5 miles respectively East, plus 1 flare about 0.2 miles South of Zakum Central Super Complex (ZCSC), e. 1 flare close northwest of Zakum North Satellite (ZNS), f. 1 flare close northwest of Zakum South Satellite (ZSS). 7.8 Navigation and Restricted Areas at Das and Zirku Islands 7.8.1 Movement within the Port Areas is subject to prior permission being granted by the PPA. Vessels visiting either Port Areas must have on board a sufficient range of local detailed hydrographic charts and must have on board a current copy of the “ADNOC, Petroleum Ports Authority, Port Regulations and Information Book.” 7.8.2 Vessels shall not enter the Island Restricted Areas except for authorized operational purposes approved by the relevant Marine Authority. 7.8.2.1 Das Island Restricted Areas No.1 & 2 are enclosed by a line joining the following positions: (a) 25o 08.61?
