API RP 17P-2019 pdf free download.Recommended Practice for Subsea Structures and Manifolds.
The first edition of API 17P was published on January 30, 2013. The first edition of API RP 17P was a U.S. National Adoption of ISO 13628-15. The first edition of ISO 13628-15 was published in the third quarter of 2011 and was created by a joint API/ISO task group. This second edition of API 17P has been completely rewritten as recommended practice (RP). While the scope is similar to the first edition of API RP 17P, the material section has been rewritten and Sections 8 through 12 have been added. The intent of this RP is to provide guidance for the specification, design, construction, transportation, installation, maintenance, and operation of subsea structures and manifolds. This standard is under the jurisdiction of API Subcommittee 17 on Subsea Production Systems. Nothing contained in any API publication is to be construed as granting any right, by implication or otherwise, for the manufacture, sale, or use of any method, apparatus, or product covered by letters patent. Neither should anything contained in the publication be construed as insuring anyone against liability for infringement of letters patent. This is the Second Edition. API Subcommittee 17 documents consist of the following: — Recommended Practice 17A, Design and Operation of Subsea Production Systems—General Requirements and Recommendations — Recommended Practice 17B, Recommended Practice for Flexible Pipe — Specification 17D, Design and Operation of Subsea Production Systems—Subsea Wellhead and Tree Equipment — Specification 17E, Specification for Subsea Umbilicals — Standard 17F, Standard for Subsea Production Control Systems — Recommended Practice 17G, Recommended Practice for Completion/Workover Risers — Recommended Practice 17H, Recommended Practice for Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) Interfaces on Subsea Production Systems — Specification 17J, Specification for Unbonded Flexible Pipe — Specification 17K, Specification for Bonded Flexible Pipe
Abbreviations and Definitions 3.1 Definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1.1 barrier element forming part of a pressure-containing envelope that is designed to prevent unintentional flow of produced/ injected fluids, particularly to the external environment. 3.1.2 carbon steel full range of carbon, carbon-manganese, and low-alloy steels used in the construction of conventional oilfield equipment. 3.1.3 cluster manifold independent structure used to comingle produced fluids or distribute injection fluids to or from one or more wells. NOTE There are no wells positioned on a cluster manifold. 3.1.4 corrosion-resistant alloy CRA alloy that is intended to be resistant to general and localized corrosion in oilfield environments that are corrosive to carbon steels. NOTE This definition is in accordance with ISO 15156 (all parts) and is intended to include materials such as stainless steels and nickel base alloys. Other ISO documents can have other definitions. 3.1.5 drilling template multi-well template used as a drilling guide to predrill wells prior to installing a surface facility. NOTE The wells are typically tied back to the surface facility during completion. The wells can also be completed subsea, with individual risers back to the surface. 3.1.6 driven pile jetted pile typically, a tall steel cylindrical structure, with or without internal stiffener system, used to support subsea structures. NOTE Driven piles are usually driven into the sea-floor with impact hammers, while jetted piles rely on jetting the soil at the lower end of the pile.
