1. Introduction
1.1. Summary
This specification covers the general guidelines for the material selection, design,
manufacture, procurement / supply of piping elements for process, utility and instrument
systems within Petrom in accordance with European Standards.
This specification does not refer at steam, hot water and potable water piping.
1.2. Objective
Establishes general guidelines for the material selection, design, manufacture, procurement /
supply of piping elements for process, utility and instrument systems within OMV Petrom
Upstream.
1.3. Related EPMS Processes

The present work instruction is assigned to the process C.5.Design Construct, Modify and De
commission Facilities.
2. Content of Regulation
2.1. General
Materials covered by this specification include pipes, fittings, flanges, valves, blinds and
spacers, gaskets and bolting.
For valves, the Contractors shall issue detail design data sheets.
Some individually engineered items (specialty items) such as flexible hoses, quick
connections, strainers, special or motor–operated valves, pipes supports, etc., requires
individually consideration by the detail design Contractors.
2.1.1. Design Conditions
This specification is intended for design of all the in-plant pipes, for PN [6, 16, 25, 40,
63 (64), 100,160, 250] designated piping elements and is based on SR EN 13480-3 (obs.:
PN 64 in older standards – is the same class with PN 63).
The pressure and temperature limits shown in piping material classes are based on flange
design conditions per SR EN 1092-1.
The rating for other components shall be as specified in the standards to which they are
manufactured.
The piping category is selected in accordance to Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU
of European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014, and PT ISCIR PT C6-2010,
should be mentioned in this case.

Materials specified in the “EN” piping classes, shall be in accordance to the harmonized
standards mentioned in SR EN 13480 – 2 (refer to table A.2 of standard EN 13480-2).
2.1.2. Nominal size
For steel piping systems the nominal diameters (ND) are equivalent to the following imperial
size (NPS):
Table 2.1.1
ND 6 8 10 15 20 25 32 40 50 65 80
NPS 1/8 1/4 3/8 1/2 3/4 1 1¼ 1½ 2 2½ 3
ND 100 125 150 200 250 300 350 400 500 600
NPS 4 5 6 8 10 12 14 16 20 24
Note: Cases with ND>24” will be treated individually by the designer, complying with the
general requirements of this specification.
2.1.3. Piping Classes
Piping components are assembled into compatible groups called piping classes. The
material class for any line is determined by the temperature, pressure, fluid and service.
Company piping class details shall be reviewed for adequacy and corrected where required,
by the Contractor, according to the applicable codes and standards.
The heading of each piping class shows typical fluids, maximum and/or minimum
temperature limit and the nominal corrosion allowance.
Within each piping class there are several piping categories, (classes-complying with
SR EN 13480-1). These categories (classes) depend on (see table 2.1.2 and Annex A):
• fluid group – according to CEN/TR 13480-7; was determined based on the most
dangerous fluid to be circulated through a certain piping class.
• product PN x ND – according SR EN 13480-1 and CEN/TR 13480-7.
The pipe wall thicknesses listed in a piping class are selected for the service or group of
services covered by the class. The wall thicknesses are not intended to cover all
combinations of maximum temperature and pressure permitted by the piping code for the
primary flange rating listed in the class.

2.1.4. Identification System for Piping Classes
The piping class specifications are classified using a five-digit (four letters and one number)
identification code. The code sequence is as follows:

2.2. Pipe
2.2.1. Pipe Wall Thickness – All classes

Predefined pipe wall thickness of certain pipe sizes in piping material classes is based on the
pressure and temperature limits shown in Company piping material classes and shall be
used in piping design. The wall thickness of the pipe was calculated (complies with SR EN

Wall thickness for sour service was calculated for a safety factor 2 for yield strength and a
safety factor 3 for ultimate tensile strength.
If stresses induced by the assembly of the piping on the supports and also by the thermal
stress are larger than the stresses from pressure limit, the designer shall calculate the new
wall thickness.
Pipe wall thickness shall be calculated when issuing a new piping material classes or extend
existing ones in case the existing ones does not cover the project’s specific conditions, such
calculations shall be based on actual design conditions of the line involved, not the
specification table limit, and subject to Company’s approval. The calculated wall thicknesses
shall be listed for each line in the Contractor prepared line classes, in the line summary, and
on piping isometrics.
2.2.2. Corrosion and Erosion Allowance

Corrosion and erosion allowance for carbon steel and low and intermediate alloy steel piping
shall be in accordance with Annex B – Piping Material Class of this document.
Where carbon steel is to be exposed to a corrosive and/or erosive environment, an

appropriate corrosion allowance will be provided, based on prediction corrosion rates over
the life of the asset. A minimum corrosion allowance of 3.0 mm is required for carbon steel
items exposed to “sour” hydrocarbon service, as defined by NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156.
All other carbon steel items and low and intermediate alloy steel items (non-sour service)

3.0 mm.
Non-sour carbon steel piping containing non-hazardous commodities (e.g. plant air, fire
water, etc.) will have a corrosion and erosion allowance of 1.5 mm.
For stainless steel / duplex stainless steel no corrosion allowance shall be considered. If
erosion appears an erosion allowance of 1.5 mm shall be considered.

2.9. Miscellaneous
2.9.1. Spectacles, Blanks, and Spacers

Dimensions of all blanks and spacers for size through ND 600 shall be in accordance with
ASME B16.48, “Steel Line Blanks” and table 2.9.1. To the thickness of the balnks and
spacers given in ASME B16.48 the coorosion allowance specific for each piping class shall
be added.
Table 2.9.1
PN 6 16 25 40 63(64) 100 160 250
Class 150 * 150 * 300* 300* 600* 600* 1500 2500
* Blanks and spacers outside diameter shall match with flanges raised faces diameter.
Larger diameters spacer and blanks shall be designed in accordance with ASME B31.3,
Clause 304.5.3, with due allowance for corrosion of the wetted surfaces.
Spectacle blanks are specified in size through 12” NPS (ND 300) for ASME pressure Class
300# and less and through 8” NPS (ND 200) for ASME pressure Class 300# and higher
(equivalent to less 50 kg in weight). In larger sizes, a two-piece system consisting of a plain
blank and spacer ring shall be used. Blanks shall be female type where are used with ring
joint flanges. That is, the groves for gaskets shall be cut into both sides of the blank.
2.9.2. Strainers
For strainers, special items, pipe supports and insulation, Contractor shall issue dedicated
technical specification per the project’s design intend.
2.10. Post Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT)
PWHT is required where specified (ref. Annexes B and E) by the Piping Code, Material
requirements (based on design conditions and SR EN 13480), the Line List or the Piping
Fabrication Specification.
Technological parameters shall be specified by the designer in the welding procedure.
2.11. Impact Testing

Impact testing is required for formed parts, where specified (ref. Annexes B and E), in
accordance with SR EN 13480-5 and PT C6, by the Piping Code, Material requirements
(see chapters 2.2, 2.5 and 2.6 of these Specifications), the Line List or the Piping Fabrication
Specification.
2.12. Non-Destructive Examination
Inspection and testing for piping shall be in accordance with chapter 8.2 of SR EN 13480-5.
