Fund Preparation ; VI. Marketing Preparation ; VII. Preparation of external conditions. Article 7 Organizational Preparation 1. After the feasibility study report for a construction project is approved, the project owner shall establish a production preparation team. Based on the progress of the project construction, and in accordance with the principles of streamlining, standardization, and efficiency, this team shall be gradually improved to carry out the tasks related to production preparation. II. The project owner shall, in accordance with the requirements of the overall commissioning plan, promptly establish a commissioning leadership team to uniformly organize and direct relevant units in carrying out single-unit commissioning, integrated commissioning, commissioning with materials fed in, and production assessment tasks. III. In accordance with the design requirements and project progress, and adhering to the organizational principle of a streamlined and efficient flat management structure, the project owner should establish, adjust, or replenish production management agencies at all levels in a timely manner to meet the actual needs of production management. Article 8 Personnel Preparation 1. The project owner shall assign personnel in a timely manner in accordance with the approved design staffing quota and the Outline for Production Preparation Work. II. In terms of staffing, attention should be paid to the composition in terms of age, educational level, and technical proficiency; those who have worked in similar positions should account for one-third of the total number of personnel at the facility. New employees should preferably be recruited from within the company or system, as well as among college and vocational school graduates; after training, examinations, and medical checks, those who perform best will be selected. Production managers, technical personnel, as well as key operators, analysts, and maintenance staff should arrive at the plant one to two years before the start of trial operation with materials fed in, while other staff should arrive six months to one year prior to that. When maintenance work involves existing companies or specialized maintenance firms, a maintenance contract should be signed at least six months before the trial operation with materials being introduced, and the maintenance provider must be required to assign the appropriate personnel as needed. III. In light of the characteristics of the petrochemical industry and the requirements for commissioning operations, the project owner should develop a comprehensive training plan for all employees, and ensure that training is carried out thoroughly. This will enable managers, technical personnel, and workers at all levels to meet the necessary qualifications through rigorous training and assessment before taking up their positions. 1. The training for managers at all levels should focus on education in their specific field of expertise as well as related knowledge, in order to improve their management skills and meet the requirements of test operation supervision and production management. 2. The training of key personnel such as technical staff, team leaders, and main operators should focus on providing training in specialized knowledge, practical experience with similar installations, computer simulation, as well as knowledge related to labor safety, environmental protection, fire prevention, and industrial hygiene. Through individual unit tests and combined system tests, their professional skills and technical capabilities can be improved, so that they can play a key role in terms of technology and production during the commissioning phase. 3. After receiving the three-level safety training upon joining the factory, new workers generally undergo comprehensive training in the following five stages: (1) Basic knowledge and specialized knowledge training ; (2) Actual similar devices* ; (3) On-the-job training and computer simulation training ; (5) Participate in the trial run before material feeding. Through training, they are made familiar with the process flow and master the key operating procedures, achieving the “three understandings and six skills” (three understandings: understanding the principles, understanding the structure, and understanding the procedural guidelines) ; Six skills: the ability to read diagrams, operate equipment, perform maintenance, do calculations, communicate, and troubleshoot faults); improving the “six types of capabilities” (thinking ability, operational and task-handling ability, coordination and organizational ability, accident-prevention ability, self-protection and first-aid ability, and self-discipline ability). At the end of each training phase, strict examinations are conducted, and the results of these examinations are recorded in the individual’s technical file as a basis for obtaining certification to work in that role. IV. The construction unit should send personnel to similar installations for training on a systematic basis, adopting the \"six fixings\" approach (fixing tasks, timing, positions, personnel, training leaders, and assessment schedules), and signing a contract with the training unit that outlines the \"two responsibilities and one requirement\" (the training unit is responsible for teaching and ensuring proficiency, with the trainees operating under the supervision of experienced instructors). V. In addition, in accordance with the contract provisions and the actual requirements of the commissioning process, the introducing party should carefully select some skilled key production personnel to go abroad for technical training. The list of personnel going abroad for training and the related plan are submitted to a professional company for review. Upon returning to the factory, these personnel should play a key role in production preparation and trial operation with materials fed into the system ; Personnel sent abroad must serve at this facility for at least three years after its commissioning, making due contributions to the safe and stable operation of the facility as well as to ensuring it meets relevant standards. VI. In comprehensive staff training, particular emphasis should be placed on the cultivation of ideology, work style, and discipline, as well as on professional ethics education. Various effective methods should be employed to encourage employees to engage in self-education and self-improvement, to foster the corporate spirit of patriotism, entrepreneurship, pragmatism, and dedication. It is necessary to carry forward the glorious traditions of China National Petroleum Corporation, conduct training in terms of ideology and work style, strengthen management, apply strict standards, and strive to build a workforce that possesses ideals, morality, competence, and discipline.

Article 23 \"Reverse Operation\" 1. \"Reverse Operation\" refers to the use of externally supplied materials to establish the flow in the downstream units or subsequent processes in advance, before feeding materials into the main unit or main processing step, so that continuous production can proceed once feeding begins in those units or steps. By performing \"reverse operation,\" issues related to the process, equipment, and operations of downstream units or subsequent processes can be fully exposed, allowing for timely corrective actions. This ensures that the entire process can operate smoothly once material is fed into the main unit, enabling a successful trial run on the first attempt, thereby reducing the trial run time and costs. II. When formulating the commissioning plan, the production department should, based on the process characteristics of the installation and the availability of raw materials, make use of the \"reverse startup\" method as much as possible. Article 24: Commissioning Team 1. For the commissioning of production units after feeding them with materials, a \"six-in-one\" commissioning team should be formed, with the production unit as the main entity, along with the general contractor, design agency, construction company, experts from related factories who provide guidance for commissioning, as well as foreign experts. Non-introduced devices can organize a “four-in-one” test fleet. II. During the commissioning phase with material feeding, the construction unit shall establish a unified commissioning command system to oversee and organize the commissioning work. III.
