Anotation

This document defines the technical requirements for safe, dimensionally and functionally interchangeable bonded flexible pipes that are designed and manufactured to uniform standards and criteria.

Minimum requirements are specified for the design, material selection, manufacture, testing, marking, and packaging of bonded flexible pipes, with reference to existing codes and standards, where applicable. This document applies to bonded flexible pipe assemblies, consisting of segments of flexible pipe body with end fittings attached to both ends.

The applications addressed by this document are for sweet and sour service production, including export and injection and seawater intake applications. Production products include oil, gas, water, and injection chemicals. This specification applies to both static and dynamic flexible pipes used as flowlines, risers, jumpers, and offshore loading and discharge hoses.

This specification does not apply to flexible pipe ancillary components. This specification does not apply to flexible pipes for use in choke and kill-line applications.

This specification can be applied to flexible pipes for pile hammer, gas flare, water supply, and jetting applications, though no effort was made to address the specific and unique technological aspects relating to each of these requirements. See more
