Materials and Installation of Hot Service Insulation
1. The following Process Industry Practices (PIPs) are accepted as Shell General Specification (GS)
5GSH1000 with modifications as indicated below:
• INIH1000 Hot Insulation Installation Details
• INSH1000 Requirements for Hot Service Insulation Materials
• INSH2000 Installation of Hot Service Insulation Systems
2. Above PIPs are generic and require decisions regarding insulation materials and design thickness.
Decisions have been made for major projects to optimize cost and performance. Thickness
tables and data sheets for use on new construction projects are attached to this cover sheet.
3. The purpose of 5GSH1000 is to combine all the Shell hot service materials and installation
requirements into one documentation package.
4. 5GSH1000 partially replaces existing Shell General Specification 5 GS-1.
5. Insulation thickness tables and type codes, formerly in 5 GS-1, are found in 5GSEG1000.
6. Refer to 5GS1001 for installation of insulation for strong wind conditions.
7. Refer to 5GS1002 for fire protection of insulation.
8. Refer to 5GS1003 for insulation for ethylene oxide equipment.
9. Refer to 5GS1004 acoustical insulation for piping.

requirements. Insulation shall not obstruct the sight glasses. Exceptions require
Shell approval.
2. Unless otherwise specified, insulation of instruments beyond the root valve
connection at the piping or equipment will be by others.

Notes to Table 2
1. Table is based on non hygroscopic mineral wool insulation with a K factor of 0.28 at 50°F.
Typically, Owens Corning or Rockwool mineral wool insulation.
2. Insulation thickness is optimized for use with Raychem's XTV self limiting heat trace cable at
120 and 208 volts.
3. Minimum ambient temperature shall be 10°F.
4. If the insulation thickness specified in Table 1 of this GS is thicker than that specified in
this table, the thickness specified in Table 1 shall be used.
5. Heat traced equipment (other than piping) shall be insulated with 3" mineral wool.
