    NORSOK standard P-001 Edition 5, Sep, 2006 6 61 General When sizing piping, the following constraints shall be addressed ‘+ required capacityfavailable driving pressure; + flow induced forces; + noiselvibration: + pressure surges; ‘+ material degradation - erosion, corrosion, cavitation; ‘© liquid accumulation/stug flow; + sand accumulation Line sizing crtera in the sub clauses below shall be adhered to for design of new installations. For modification of existing installations, addtional considerations shall be given to ife cycle cost, and increased velocity andior pressure drop may be accepted if mechanical integrity can be documented, e.g. pV* > 200 (000 kg/ms” fora line in the flare system, In general, sizing of ines should be in accordance with 1SO 13703, Permissible pipe sizes ‘Amminimum size of DN 50 (2 in) should in general be used forall process, process support and utility piping to ensure adequate mechanical integrity. Smaller piping can be used where protection andlor support is, provided to withstand human activity. Minimum size forthe sewage and open drain header shall be DN 100 (4 in) and sub-headers DN 80 (3 in) ‘Overflow from atmosphere tanks shall as a minimum be equal to the largest inlet pipe. ‘Tubing may be used for air, hydraulic oll and other non-combustible/non-hazardous fluids. Pipe roughness For all calculations of pressure drop, the following pipe roughness values should be used: Carbon steel (CS) non-corroded: 0,08 mm Carbon steel (CS) corroded 0.5mm Stainless stec! (SS): 0,05 mm Titanium and Cu-Ni: 0,05 mm Glassfiber reinforced polyester (GRP): 0,02 mm Polyethylene, PVC: 0,005 mm Flexible hose vendor to be consulted (see NOTE) NOTE Asa ough estimation, 1/20 mm canbe used (1 ithe internal camer in inches forsee carcass ard 0.008 mun fr laste coating, 62 Sizing of liquid lines 624 Velocity limitations ‘The velocities shall in general be kept low enough to prevent problems with erosion, water-hammer pressure ‘surges, noise, vibration and reaction forces. In some cases a minimum velocity is required.
