Design, Installation and Operation of Thermoplastic Liners for Oilfield Pipelines
This standard defines the process necessary to design, install, and operate a thermoplastic-lined oilfield pipeline. The design process includes an assessment of the service conditions, materials of construction, chemical compatibilities of liner materials with any service fluids and additives, pipeline geometry, and risk analysis. The installation process includes site surveys, pipeline preparation, insertion, termination, pressure testing, reburial, and safety. Operation of a lined system must take into consideration the service fluids, materials of construction, safety and environment, commissioning, normal operation, de-pressuring, and upset conditions, and inspection for liner integrity.
