Overview
Safely transporting energy products over long distances via pipelines is a key component in the success of Canada’s oil and natural gas industry.
Since its first edition in 1994, CSA Z662 - Oil and Gas Pipeline Systems is the culmination over 40 years of pipeline standards development. CSA Z662 was created to help provide guidance on the safe design, construction and maintenance of pipeline systems used for:
Liquid hydrocarbons, including crude oil, multi-phase fluids, condensate, liquid petroleum products
Natural gas liquids and liquefied petroleum gas
Oilfield water/steam
Carbon dioxide used in oilfield enhanced recovery schemes
Gas
CSA Z662 is referenced in legislation by provinces, territories and the federal government, thus making it critical for all industry professionals to understand and apply the requirements of this new edition upon its publication. This package includes expert commentary directly in the standard document, making it your comprehensive resource when working on pipeline projects in compliance with this national standard.
Why you Need to Know the 2015 Edition:
Scope has been expanded to further recognize CO2 pipeline systems to help users to implement carbon capture and storage schemes in their projects
Updated requirements for safety and loss management systems, integrity management programs and the engineering assessments process to help reduce risk, provide safer communities, improve efficiencies and raise stakeholder awareness of potential safety issues
Greater clarification of requirements for mitigation programs for internal corrosion to help reduce risk and improve reliability
New requirements for training and certification of field-applied coating applicators with reference to CSA Z245.30 - Field-applied external coatings for steel pipeline systems to help ensure all personnel involved in working with these applicators are well-trained in the specific tasks associated with them
Greater clarification of requirements for steam distribution pipelines and high temperature pipelines (Clause 14) to help improve efficiencies and reduce risk
Includes expert commentary clearly providing rationale statements and explanatory material for many of the clauses of this standard
