What is Process Piping ?• Piping:

− Assembly of piping components used toconvey, distribute, mix, separate,discharge, meter, control, or stop fluidflows.

• Piping Systems:− Interconnected piping subject to the

same sets of design conditions.

5

What is Process Piping ?

• Process:− A series of activities performed in

particular ordered to convert rawmaterial into an useful product

• Process Piping is interconnectedpiping used in process industries toconvert raw material in to usefulproducts.

6

What is Process Piping ?• A Piping under the purview

of ASME Code - B31.3 is Process Piping

• A Process Piping Systems are design as per the guidelines given in ASME B31.3

7

ASME B31.3 Process Fluid Service

• Category D Fluid Service− The fluid is nonflammable, nontoxic, and not damaging to

human tissue.− The design pressure does not exceed 150 psig (1035 kPa).− The design temperature is between -29°C and 186°C.

• Category M Fluid Service− a fluid service in which the potential for personnel

exposure is judged to be significant and in which a singleexposure to a very small quantity of a toxic fluid, causedby leakage, can produce serious irreversible harm topersons on breathing or bodily contact, even when promptrestorative measures are taken

10

Types of ASME B31.3 Process Fluid

• High Pressure Fluid Service− High pressure fluids are those in which the Owner has

specified that the pressures will be in excess of thatallowed by the ASME B16.5 PN420 (Class 2500) rating forthe specified design temperature and material group.

• Normal Fluid Service− Everything else that does not cover under Category D,

Category M and High Pressure fluid service.− ASME B31.3 covers most of the process fluid in this

Category− Gauge

11

Types of Process Fluid in Oil & Gas

• Process fluid are mainlyclassified as following;− Mainly Hydrocarbons services,

starting from Crude oil to finaldistilled products

technical definitions and guidelines-“how to" instructions for designers and manufacturers.

−They serve as a common language to defining quality and establishing safety criteria.

−Examples- ASTM standard, ISO standard.

2


•Why Standard is required ?−Standards are documents that establish

engineering or technical requirementsfor products, practices, methods oroperations.

−Build confidence about quality in users−Lower the cost of production as

requirements are standardize

3


•Code: A code is a standard that hasbeen adopted by one or moregovernmental bodies and has theforce of law, or when it has beenincorporated into a businesscontract
