This report documents the results of thermal expansion under load (TEUL) and creep in compression testing conducted by ASTM C832 and DIN 993-9 (same test as ISO 3187). The prime objective for this study is to determine if one or both tests should replace the ASTM C16 method. ASTM C16, modified from...
This document provides subsea capping stack recommended practices for design, manufacture, and use. The document applies to the construction of new subsea capping stacks. The document can aid in generating a basis of design (BOD) document, as well as preservation, transportation, maintenance,...
This recommended practice covers procedures for the closure in place, removal, storage, and off-site disposal of underground storage tank (UST) systems that have contained petroleum liquids. In general, it outlines requirements, procedures, and operating conditions to be followed by contractors,...
General This Recommended Practice (RP) addresses coiled tubing well control equipment assembly and operation as it relates to well control practices. Industry practices for performing well control operations using fluids for hydrostatic pressure balance are not addressed in this RP. This document...
This recommended practice provides design guidelines for the use of non-ferrous materials in subsea intervention systems and components.
General This standard establishes minimum requirements for material, design, fabrication, erection, and inspection for vertical, cylindrical, aboveground, closed- and open-top, welded storage tanks in various sizes and capacities for internal pressures approximating atmospheric pressure (internal...
This standard specifies requirements for centrifugal pumps, including pumps running in reverse as hydraulic power recovery turbines (HPRTs), for use in petroleum, petrochemical, and gas industry process services. This standard is applicable to overhung pumps, between-bearings pumps, and vertically...
This standard gives general requirements for the determination and use of meteorological and oceanographic (metocean) conditions for the design, construction, and operation of offshore structures of all types used in the petroleum and natural gas industries. The requirements are divided into two...
This API standard specifies the requirements for a heavy-duty series of bolted bonnet steel globe valves for petroleum refinery and related applications where corrosion, erosion, and other service conditions would indicate a need for heavy wall sections and large stem diameters. This...
This recommended practice (RP) covers the inspection practices for fired boilers, process heaters, and furnaces used in petroleum refineries and petrochemical plants. The practices described in this document are focused to improve equipment reliability and plant safety. The intent is to provide...
Purpose This API specification identifies requirements for the forging manufacturer qualification, production, marking and documentation of closed die forgings for use in the petroleum and natural gas industries when referenced by an applicable equipment standard or otherwise specified as a...
This recommended practice discusses damage mechanisms applicable to oil refineries; however, much of the information herein can also be applied to petrochemical and other industrial applications, as the user deems appropriate. It is up to the user to determine the applicability and...
This document provides guidance on information that is to be shared regarding onshore well construction and rig-specific operating guidelines. It is intended to align the lease operator's and drilling contractor's safety and environmental management systems (SEMS). The WCID is used to formalize the...
The JAS is an annual survey, published in December, that contains the only long-term source of information of detailed U.S. drilling expenditures on wells, and footage. An Analysis & Trends section provides detailed information and graphs about offshore and onshore wells, shale wells, coalbed...
Basic Petroleum Data Book provides historical domestic and world statistical background information, beginning in most instances with 1947. Included are data on energy, reserves, exploration and drilling, production, finance, prices, demand, refining, imports, exports, offshore transportation,...
Objective This standard provides procedures for the laboratory testing of both drilling fluid materials and drilling fluid physical, chemical, and performance properties. Conditions of Applicability This document is applicable to both water-based and non-aqueous drilling fluids, as well as the base...
This specification establishes minimum requirements for material, design, fabrication, erection, inspection, and marking of vertical, cylindrical, aboveground, unanchored, closed- and open-top, bolted storage tanks in standard sizes designed for the loads specified in Section 5. Purpose This...
