BS EN ISO 14692-1:2002 – Petroleum and natural gas industries — Glass- reinforced plastics (GRP) piping — Part 1: Vocabulary, symbols, applications and materials
1 Scope
This part of ISO 1 4692 gives the terms, definitions and symbols used in the specification, manufacture, testing and installation of glass-reinforced plastics (GRP) piping installations associated with offshore applications on both fixed and floating topsides facilities for oil and gas industry production and processing. It also describes the philosophy and provides guidance on the range of suitable applications for such piping, and defines limitations to the materials of construction for these applications.
It is intended to be used in conjunction with the other parts of ISO 1 4692.
This part of ISO 1 4692 also describes the pressure terminology used in ISO 1 4692 (all parts).
