Oil and gas industries including low carbon energy - Design and operation of subsea production systems - Part 1 : general requirements and recommendations
This document provides general requirements and recommendations for the development and operation of subsea production/injection systems, from the concept development phase to decommissioning and abandonment.Flexible pipe standards form part of the API 17-series of documents (see 4.3.3); however, this document (technically equivalent to API RP 17A 6th edition) does not generally cover flowlines/pipelines or production/injection risers (associated with flowlines/pipelines). These components form part of a complete subsea production system (SPS), as shown in Figure 1.

ISO 13628-1:2005 provides general requirements and overall recommendations for development of complete subsea production systems, from the design phase to decommissioning and abandonment. ISO 13628-1:2005 is intended as an umbrella document to govern other parts of ISO 13628 dealing with more detailed requirements for the subsystems which typically form part of a subsea production system. However, in some areas (e.g. system design, structures, manifolds, lifting devices, and colour and marking) more detailed requirements are included herein, as these subjects are not covered in a subsystem standard. The complete subsea production system comprises several subsystems necessary to produce hydrocarbons from one or more subsea wells and transfer them to a given processing facility located offshore (fixed, floating or subsea) or onshore, or to inject water/gas through subsea wells. ISO 13628-1:2005 and its related subsystem standards apply as far as the interface limits described in Clause 4. Specialized equipment, such as split trees and trees and manifolds in atmospheric chambers, are not specifically discussed because of their limited use. However, the information presented is applicable to those types of equipment.
Le présent amendement modifie principalement l'Article 6 qui a été amendé par une série de dispositions révisées, incluant les exigences générales relatives à la conception des matériaux et des recommandations applicables à l'ensemble du système de production immergé.
The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
