NF EN ISO 12736

This document specifies requirements for the validation of wet thermal insulation systems applied to pipelines and subsea equipment in the oil and gas industry. This document is applicable to wet thermal insulation systems submerged in seawater. This document is not applicable to: —     maintenance works on existing installed wet thermal insulation systems; —     qualification for anti-corrosion coating; —     thermal insulation in the annulus of a steel pipe-in-pipe system.

This document specifies requirements for project specific product and process qualification of wet thermal insulation systems applied to pipelines in a factory setting and subsea equipment in the oil and gas industries. This document is not applicable to: —     pre-fabricated insulation; —     thermal insulation in the annulus of a steel pipe-in-pipe system; —     maintenance works on existing installed wet thermal insulation systems; —     project qualification of anticorrosion coatings or the requirements for application thereof.

This document specifies requirements for project specific product and process qualification of field applied wet thermal insulation systems applied at interfaces (e.g. field joints) and pre-fabricated insulation in the petroleum and natural gas industries. This document is applicable to wet thermal insulation systems submerged in seawater. This document is not applicable to: —     the project qualification of anticorrosion coatings or the requirements for application thereof; —     thermal insulation in the annulus of a steel pipe-in-pipe system.
