Steel pipe for pipeline transportation systems
1 Scope
This document specifies requirements for the manufacture of welded and seamless steel pipes for use in pipeline transportation systems in the petroleum and natural gas industries, including two product specification levels (PSL 1 and PSL 2).
This document is applicable to the manufacture, inspection, marking, coating, recording and loading of welded and seamless pipes for use in pipeline transportation systems in the petroleum and natural gas industries. The manufacture and inspection of steel pipes for pure hydrogen transmission pipelines shall be carried out with reference to this document.
This document is not applicable to cast pipes.
