Piping expansion loops in pipe racks and tracks shall be raised in elevation to stay clear of

adjacent piping, with the exception of flare headers and no pocket lines.

Normal pipe size in pipe tracks and main pipe bridges shall not be less than 1, based on asupporting steel span of 4 meter.

For maintenance reasons, provision shall be made for draining the discharge and suction linesof pumps:

Suction lines may be drained through pump casing. However, when eccentric reducerswith topside flat are used in suction lines, such arrangement may require an additionaldrain.

Vertical discharge lines shall be drained by a valved drain, connected to the checkvalve, or installed between the check valve and the first block valve.

Pipelines for liquid fuel, fuel gas, pilot gas, general service steam (steaming out and atomizingsteam) and purge air around furnaces shall be by subheaders with block valves at the mainheader. In general, symmetrical piping should be designed for branches to burners.

Smothering steam block valves and manifold must be located at a safe distance from thefurnace, minimum 15 m. Downstream the block valve a weep hole of 6 mm diameter shall beprovided at the lowest point.

4.8 PRESSURE VESSELS AND COLUMNS

Design of piping shall be coordinated with process requirements of equipment to achieve anoptimum nozzle position.

Inlet nozzles shall be arranged such, to avoid the inlet stream impinging on the vessel wall, oragainst level and gauge glass connections.

Interconnecting piping between vessels/columns without valves, may be considered as a part ofthe equipment and, therefore, may be subject to limitations and/or design requirements given bythe applicable code and other regulations. This piping shall be marked on the PEFS in amanner, which distinguishes it from other piping.

For stripping steam to towers the check valve, vent and block valve shall be located close to the
