OSLO, Norway – DNV has released a new revision to the Submarine Pipeline Standard (DNV OS F101).
The revision provides upgrades in four areas, says DNV Energy's Leif Collberg. Generally, the release parallels ISO 3183 and focuses more on integrity management and document structure.
"The revised Submarine Pipeline Standard complies now with the new ISO 3183 on line pipe material, with additional and modified requirements," says Collberg. "This is the only pipeline standard in the world in compliance with ISO 13623 on pipeline design. The DNV standard also has increased focus on pipeline integrity during the operational phase. Further, the document is easier to follow and gives improved guidance and interpretations compared with the previous revision."
