3. FIELD INSTRUMENTATION PROJ ECT REQUIREMENTS
3.1 General
All local instruments, where possible, shall be close-coupled to provide a good
representational measurement of the process conditions, otherwise they shall
be mounted remotely utilising the shortest possible impulse line lengths.
Impulse lines will also be heat-traced and insulated where required to prevent
crude waxing or hydrate formation, as applicable to service.
All instruments shall be located and mounted to minimise the effects of
vibration and to provide each item with adequate access for maintenance.
The orientation of housings shall, where possible, permit operators to observe
scales whilst adjusting related instruments. Escape routes shall not be


obstructed by instrumentation supports and equipments. Wherever possible,
instrument mounting heights from grade or skid-access platform levels shall
be between 1.3 m and 1.6 m. Handrails shall not be used for supporting
instruments, impulse piping or cabling.
Transmitters will be provided with integral local digital indication in
engineering units, in lieu of local gauges, provided they can tolerate the
minimum and maximum operating and environmental temperatures. Where
indication is required at a location remote from the transmitter, signals will be
repeated via either an analogue output from the process control system or an
inline loop-powered indicator - depending upon loop type.
The use of multivariable transmitters for non-critical control and monitoring
will be maximised.
Where process applications exist that require both a process control and a SIS
instrument, then the instruments shall be specified to have identical ranges
(i.e. offset and span) for the purpose of comparison between the instruments
and for discrepancy alarms to be generated in the PCS.
3.2 Instrument Materials & Rating
The pressure, temperature and materials rating of all instrument wetted parts
and casings and their associated fittings shall conform to, or exceed, the
design pressure / temperature of the process system or service to which they
are connected and the environment in which they are to be installed. In
particular, all soft goods (e.g. elastomers) subjected to the process
conditions shall be selected on the basis of resistance to explosive
decompression, chemical compatibility and suitability for the design pressure
and the design maximum to minimum temperature range.
Sensing element chamber and housing design shall be such that element
failure does not cause the housing to become pressurised. Where appropriate
to meet this requirement, a blow-out disk shall be provided preferably in the
bottom of the housing.
Materials (including bolting) for in-line instruments shall be, as a minimum, in
accordance with the piping specification. However, where suitable, an
appropriate grade of stainless steel may be used for the internal trim and/or
body.
Direct connections between process fluids and control or equipment rooms will
not be permitted.


The use of brass or copper bearing alloys shall not be permitted. The use of
aluminium for instrumentation bodies/casings shall be only permitted if
available as Marine Grade, low copper,
and the combined magnesium and titanium content is less than 0.6% and the
surface is coated to prevent corrosion from the environment and sparking by
abrasion with iron objects. Precautions are required to be taken to isolate
aluminium from other metals to prevent galvanic corrosion, e.g. by the use of
nylon washers, neoprene gaskets, etc with given approval from Company.
3.3 Instrument Process Connections & Hook-ups
The process connections on all non-flanged instruments shall be NPT,
while flanged instrument connections shall be ASME Class 150 RF on piping
and on vessels, as a minimum, or in accordance with the Specification for
Piping and Materials.
Where non-carbon steel flanges are to be provided (eg 316SS), these shall
meet the design pressure of the process, or an increase in the ASME class
rating be made to achieve this.
The process hook-up for hazardous fluids shall utilise integral double block
and bleed units for process isolation at the instrument process tie-in points in
accordance with the System Valving and Isolation Philosophy, DHF-00-R-S-
0001.
Excess flow valves (such as Swagelok XS Series) shall also be fitted on all non-
flowing instrument process tie-in points, utilising impulse lines in clean
hazardous gas services above 2 MPag normal operating or 5MPag design
pressure. This is to limit the release of hydrocarbon gas should the impulse
line or fittings fail. Excess flow valves shall not be installed on compressor
protection and surge applications.
The instrument, if mounted remote from the process line, shall be connected
using impulse tubing and compression fittings. At the instrument, an
instrument manifold (2 or 3 valve for pressure, 5 valve for dP) shall be fitted
for calibration. Furthermore, it shall be possible to remove the instrument
whilst leaving the instrument manifold, impulse tubing and compression
fittings in-situ.
The process hook-up for non-hazardous fluids shall utilise integral single block
and bleed units at the instrument process tie-in points in accordance with the
System Valving and Isolation Philosophy, DHF-00-R-S-0001.


3.4 Instrument Tubing & Fittings
All tubing and fittings shall be of imperial size, not soft metric. As a minimum,
tubing shall be 316L stainless steel to ASTM A269, cold-drawn, seamless, fully
annealed, pickled, have a minimum Molybdenum (Mo) content of 2.5% with
surface hardness between 70 and 74 (but no more than 80) on the Rockwell
B scale (Rb80). Tubing services up to 60C may use 316L stainless steel.
Tubing services above 60C are subject to chloride stress corrosion cracking
(CSCC) and shall have materials selected to suit the service.
Compression fittings shall be Swagelok manufacture and 316L stainless steel
as a minimum, selected to service requirements.
Tubing of sufficient wall thickness shall be installed to meet the design
pressure of the system to which it is connected. Tube sizes as presented in
the following table shall be used. Note that standard wall thickness shall be
used to minimise the possibility of low pressure tubing inadvertently being
used in high pressure service.
