This Standard specifies requirements for design and construction of carbon and carbonmanganese steel pipelines and associated piping and components that are used to transmit single-phase and multi-phase hydrocarbon fluids, such as natural and manufactured gas, liquefied petroleum gas, natural gasoline, crude oil, natural gas liquids and liquid petroleum products.
The principles are expressed in practical rules and guidelines for use by competent persons.
The fundamental principles and the practical rules and guidelines set out in AS 2885.1, AS 2885.2, AS 2885.3 and AS 2885.5 are the basis on which an engineering assessment is to be made where these Standards do not provide detailed requirements appropriate to a specific item.
NOTE: AS 2885.4 for offshore submarine pipeline systems is a standalone document.
