This International Standard specifies requirements and gives recommendations for the
design, materials,
construction, testing, operation, maintenance and abandonment of pipeline systems used for
transportation in the
petroleum and natural gas industries.
It applies to pipeline systems on land and offshore, connecting wells, plants, process plants, refineries
and storage facilities, including any section of a pipeline constructed within the boundaries of such facilities for the
purpose of its connection. The extent of pipeline systems covered by this International Standard is illustrated in
Figure 1.
This International Standard applies to rigid metallic pipelines. It is not applicable for flexible pipelines or those
constructed from other materials such as glass-reinforced plastics.
This International Standard is applicable to all new pipeline systems and may be applied to modifications made to
existing ones. It is not intended that it should apply retroactively to existing pipeline systems.
It describes the functional requirements of pipeline systems and
provides a basis for their safe design, construction,
testing, operation, maintenance and abandonment
