In this article, based on observed X-sequence of independent and identically distribution (iid) continuous random variables, we discuss the problem of predicting future order statistics from a Y-sequence of iid continuous random variables from the same distribution. Specifically, distribution-free prediction intervals (PIs) for an order statistic observation based on either progressive Type-II right censoring, or order data from the past X-sequence, as well as outer and inner PIs are derived based on order statistics observations. Such these intervals are exact and do not depend on the sampling distribution. Finally, a real life time data set that given to breakdown of an insulating fluid between electrodes is used to illustrate the proposed procedures.
