This service specificationfalls under the top level document DNVGL-SE-0474 Risk based verification and applies risk-differentiated levels of verification involvement.

This service specification identifies and describes verification activities for a pipeline system during design, construction and operation.

This service specification is tailor-made for verification and certification of pipeline systems designed and constructed in accordance with DNVGL-ST-F101.

The identified and described verification activities in this service specification are generic. Based on the scope of work tables in Sec.3, the detailed verification scope of work tables in App.D should be subject to project specific tailoring based on risk assessments.
