Where the regulation applies
The regulation concerns trunk pipelines for liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons throughout their life cycle. Facility boundaries and associated structures are determined from the design, intended use and scope exclusions.
What the regulation covers
Checks cover strength, leak tightness, corrosion protection and prevention of accidental releases. Assessment uses the prescribed expert review, supervision and acceptance procedures, rather than a universal pipeline certificate.
Examples of products and facilities
- crude-oil trunk pipelines
- gas transmission pipelines
- petroleum-product trunk pipelines
- pumping stations within the facility
- compressor stations within the facility
These examples are indicative. Applicability depends on intended use, specifications and the regulation’s exclusions.
