January 4, 2017ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees.
he main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 3183 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 67, Materials, equipment and offshore structures for petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries, Subcommittee SC 2, Pipeline transportation systems.
Working Group 16 of ISO/TC 67/SC 2 meets jointly with the Line Pipe Working Group (currently WG 4210) of the American Petroleum Institute (API) to ensure the harmonization of ISO 3183 with API Specification 5L.
This third edition of ISO 3183 cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 3183:2007), on which it is based but with revisions to incorporate updating, clarification and additional technical requirements.
The second edition of ISO 3183 was harmonized to a great extent with the 44th edition of API 5L, published on 1 October 2007, and the revisions produced by the joint ISO and API Working Groups are intended to extend or complete harmonization with the new 45th edition of API 5L.
It is the intent of ISO/TC 67 that the second and third editions of ISO 3183 shall both be applicable, at the option of the purchaser (as defined in 4.49), for a period of six months from the first day of the calendar quarter immediately following the date of publication of this third edition, after which period, the second edition (ISO 3183:2007) will no longer be applicable.
In the preparation of this third edition of ISO 3183, the technical committee has maintained the concept of two basic levels of standard technical requirements for line pipe expressed as two product specification levels (PSL 1 and PSL 2). Level PSL 1 provides a standard quality level for line pipe. Level PSL 2 has additional mandatory requirements for chemical composition, notch toughness and strength properties and additional non-destructive testing (NDT). Requirements that apply only to PSL 1 or only to PSL 2 are so designated. Requirements that are not designated to a specific PSL designation apply to both PSL 1 and PSL 2 pipe.
The technical committee also recognized that the petroleum and natural gas industry often specifies additional requirements for particular applications. In order to accommodate such needs, optional additional requirements for special applications are available, as follows:
-
— PSL 2 pipe ordered with a qualified manufacturing procedure (Annex B), the requirements of which have been enhanced to include verification detail of critical processes in the production of feedstock material, line pipe manufacture and product testing and inspection;
-
— PSL 2 pipe ordered with resistance to ductile fracture propagation in gas pipelines (Annex G);
-
— PSL 2 pipe ordered for sour service (Annex H);
-
— pipe ordered as “Through the Flowline” (TFL) pipe (Annex I);
-
— PSL 2 pipe ordered for offshore service (Annex J);
The following two new annexes are added to the third edition of this International Standard.
-
— PSL 2 pipe ordered for European onshore natural gas transmission pipelines (Annex M).
-
— Equations for threaded and coupled pipe and background equations for guided bend and CVN test (Annex P).
