Statement of Work

Buoy Barge BPL 6704

For: Great Lakes St. Lawrence Seaway Massena, NY. USA

PART 100 – GENERAL

100.1 Description

Great Lakes St. Lawrence Seaway Development Corporation (GLS for short) owns and operates several marine assets, involved in the operation and maintenance of navigational aids within the St. Lawrence River. These assets include a crane barge used to lift, transport, maintain and deploy navigation buoys.

The barge has been in operation since 1984 and originally designed to operate with the tug Robinson Bay. In 2020 the tug Seaway Guardian took over primary operation from the Robinson Bay, and modifications to the barge are required to accommodate the different bow design of the tug.

This refit Statement of Work (SOW) is for a major refit of the buoy barge and is intended to allow the barge to provide useful service for many additional years.

The refit SOW is based on the requirements of Great Lakes St. Lawrence Seaway Development Co. (GLS) requirements to improve the safety and efficiency of the operation.

All work is to be performed at selected shipyard, although some items may be removed and refurbished remotely.

106.1 Intent of Statement of Work (SOW)

This SOW and accompanying Drawings will form part of a Contract between the Owner and the Contractor The SOW is to be interpreted as an instruction to the Contractor regarding matters of the work to be done, and as such is written in the positive imperative tense

Apart from requirements set forth in this SOW, or indicated on Drawings, it is to be understood that the Contractor is responsible for refitting the buoy barge in accordance with the contract, in a manner reflecting good current shipbuilding and marine engineering practise

The Contractor is responsible for ascertaining and ensuring that any materials, components, equipment, or parts (other than GSM or OFM) selected for incorporation into the barge during the refit are suitable for the service as defined and intended. If any equipment, device, material, or parts required for the successful operation of any systems are not specifically mentioned in the SOW or Drawings, bring the requirement for such components to the attention of the Owner’s Representative prior to entering the Contract. Once the Contract is in place, omitted items will then be considered as included, or not included, as deemed necessary for successful operation of the specified systems and equipment, and the Contract price will include the cost of supplying and installing such components. This reference is not intended to include items required for the general installation of shipboard systems such as general hardware and ironmongery, fittings, clips, fasteners, couplings, etc. All such items are deemed to be included in the definition of the associated systems, whether specifically mentioned or not

106.2 Contractor's Responsibility

The Contractor is responsible for coordination and integration of all equipment into the barge to provide the fully functioning barge as specified herein, and as shown on the Drawings, in the time frame agreed to in the refit Contract.

Accordingly, the Contractor must coordinate the supply and delivery of all equipment in a timely manner

The Contractor is responsible for proper execution and functioning of contracted work as per the SOW and drawings only and is responsible for corrective action in the event of improper or inadequate function related to Contractor work as specified in the SOW and drawings.

The Contractor is responsible for corrective action in the event of local vibration of members, panels, items of outfit, piping systems, and similar details, other

106.5 Departure from Refit SOW Documents

Notify the Owner’s Representative of any proposed departures from these documents, whether in principle or detail, and obtain written approval before such changes are committed

The Owner reserves the right to make alterations in detail as work progresses with an extra charge where extra cost of labour or material may be involved.

Such extra charges must have the written authorization of the Owner’s Representative before work is committed. An alteration alone is not justification for extra charges (see Contract Annex Work Arising Procedures)

Changes in detail to conform with Contractor practice, or changes considered and agreed upon as improvements, may be put forward by Contractor but must have written approval of the Owner’s Representative before any related work is committed

Substitutions by Contractor of alternate scantlings, items, or materials may be considered to facilitate delivery or utilize available stock, but such changes must be approved by the Owner’s Representative before work is committed

The Owner reserves the right to substitute materials or equipment for those specified or indicated on Drawings where such change may be to his advantage in relation to availability or future service. Due allowance to be made where cost is affected

Changes to contracted delivery date for barge brought about by modifications to be agreed in writing before any modification is put in hand

201. CONSTRUCTION

201.5 Workmanship

General Do not cut holes or openings in structural members for pipes, cables, access, or other purpose unless authorized on approved Drawings, or as approved by the Owner’s Representative using appropriate hotwork procedures

Preserve structural integrity of hull, tanks and voids, and refer any questions involving such integrity to the Owner’s Representative

Neatly and carefully execute all plate edges and holes burned in structure, with cuts regular in outline without notches

Openings burnt in shell, deck, or other main strength members to be in accordance with the latest version of IACS Circular No. 47 – Shipbuilding and Repair Quality Standard (Part B)

Remove sharp or jagged edges of exposed structural work

Remove and grind smooth all erection clips or bridges and projections. Avoid removal of material from plate, but if occurring fill with weld deposit. Grind such items flush and smooth where exposed to view inside or out

Cut limber holes for drainage where necessary to permit total drainage to lowest point of compartment or tank

Cut limber holes smooth on a minimum 50 mm radius or as indicated on drawings. In bottom of ballast tank, use larger radius holes to match existing beam limber holes

205. CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS

Replacement Materials Steel:

Aluminum:

Stainless steel:

New ASTM A36 steel, treated with pre-weld primer before fabrication (Mill certificates to be provided to the Owner’s Representative prior to any new steel being incorporated into the work) 5000 or 6000 series marine alloys Grade 304 or 316 for interior/dry spaces Grade 316/316L for tank/exterior/wet spaces

Welding Use State or Provincial standards for qualified welders (see Contract Clause)

Properly prepare and fair up all plate edges before welding

Where stress concentrations may arise at corners, edges, and terminals, continue welding runs around the joint for a distance of at least 35 mm

Continuously weld all brackets all around Continuously weld ends of stiffeners for a distance equal to twice stiffener depth on both sides

Completely seal all exposed faying steel surfaces by welding so no water can gain access to cause corrosion. Do not perform any intermittent welding on exterior

Leave finished work clean and smooth with all projections and rough welds chipped flush and ground smooth

Chamfer edges of insert plates on a three-to-one bevel down to thickness of surrounding plate, and provide corners with a generous radius

Ensure the surfaces, of all parts to be welded are clean, dry, and free from rust, scale, and grease

Page 20.

All welds to be sound, uniform, and substantially free from slag inclusion and porosity. Take care to ensure thorough penetration and fusion; avoid undercutting.

Before a sealing run is applied to a butt weld, expose the clean metal of the original root run

Remove and reweld all welds not meetings these conditions

Complete all welding to the approval of the Owner’s Representative (Contractor’s approved welding procedures to be available upon request by the Owner's Representative)

Full penetration welds in way of:
