Title
Specification for Unbonded Flexible Pipe
American Petroleum Institute
Publication Date:
Jul 1, 2008
Scope:
This part of ISO 13628 defines the technical requirements for
safe, dimensionally and functionally interchangeable flexible pipes
that are designed and manufactured to uniform standards and
criteria. Minimum requirements are specified for the design,
material selection, manufacture, testing, marking and packaging of
flexible pipes, with reference to existing codes and standards
where applicable. See ISO 13628-11 for guidelines on the use of
flexible pipes and ancillary components.
This part of ISO 13628 applies to unbonded flexible pipe
assemblies, consisting of segments of flexible pipe body with end
fittings attached to both ends. This part of ISO 13628 does not
cover flexible pipes of bonded structure. This part of ISO 13628
does not apply to flexible pipe ancillary components. Guidelines
for bend stiffeners and bend restrictors are given in Annex B.
NOTE 1 Guidelines for other components are given in ISO
13628-11.
This part of ISO 13628 does not apply to flexible pipes that
include non-metallic tensile armour wires. Pipes of such
construction are considered as prototype products subject to
qualification testing.
The applications addressed by this part of ISO 13628 are sweet
and sour service production, including export and injection
applications. Production products include oil, gas, water and
injection chemicals. This part of ISO 13628 applies to both static
and dynamic flexible pipes used as flowlines, risers and jumpers.
This part of ISO 13628 does not apply to flexible pipes for use in
choke-and-kill line applications.
NOTE 2 See API Specification 16C for choke-and-kill line
applications.
NOTE 3 ISO 13628-10 provides guidelines for bonded flexible
pipe.
