This document gives guidelines for:

—  the design of pipe provers of each type;

—  the calibration methods;

—  the installation and use of pipe provers of each type;

—  the interaction between pipe provers and different types of flowmeters;

—  the calculations used to derive the volumes of liquid measured (see Annex A);

—  the expected acceptance criteria for fiscal and custody transfer applications, given as guidance for both the calibration of pipe provers and when proving flowmeters (see Annex C).

This document is applicable to the use of pipe provers for crude oils and light hydrocarbon products which are liquid at ambient conditions. The principles apply across applications for a wider range of liquids, including water. The principles also apply for low vapour pressure, chilled and cryogenic products, however use with these products can require additional guidance.

This document specifies general provisions for the design and assessment of fixed (bottom-founded) and floating (buoyant) offshore structures. This document contains general provisions for the design of new structures and site assessment of existing structures.

This document gives a method for determining the resistance to cracking of steel pipes in sour service. This test method employs a full-scale test specimen consisting of a short length of pipe (a ‘full ring’), sealed at each end to contain the sour test environment within. The test method applies to any pipe; seamless, longitudinally welded (with or without filler), helical welded, and to girth welds between pipes. NOTE 1 The specimen is usually a pipe but can also consist of flange neck or section of a bend, or other tubular component or a combination of the above. NOTE 2 This test method can also be used for corrosion resistant alloys (CRAs). The method utilizes ovalization by mechanical loading to produce a circumferential stress, equal to the target hoop stress, at two diametrically opposite locations on the inside surface of the test specimen. The test specimen is then subjected to single sided exposure to the sour test environment. NOTE 3 The test also allows measurement of hydrogen permeation rates.

This document specifies a routine method for determining the organic matter and the ash content of soil improvers and growing media. NOTE The loss on ignition (LOI) is often used as an estimate for the content of organic matter in the sample. Inorganic substances or decomposition products (e.g. H2O, CO2, SO2, O2) are released or absorbed and some inorganic substances are volatile under the reaction conditions. Thus, a conversion to the organic carbon content is not possible.
