Upstream Piping Classification Line Class API 10000
Mar 2011
Scope
1. This Project Design Specification (PDS) contains the API Line Class 10000 tables that
accompany PG-PDS 03-01-01. Additional valve information is contained in PG-PDS 03-20-10.
2. Line class K81C is developed to cover the basic requirements for the design of piping systems for
onshore production and processing facilities governed by ASME B31.3.
3. Line class K8 is developed to cover the basic requirements for the design of pipelines governed
by AS 2885.
4. EPC4 are using line class K81.
5. EPC5 are using line class K8.

Appendix: Notes to Piping Line Class API 10000

1) The Notes for this PDS can be found in PG-PDS 03-01-01.
2) Additional Notes specific to this PDS can be found below.
111. Design pressure and temperature limits specified are the applicable pipeline design pressure and
temperature limits. Pipeline design pressure/temperature has been used to ensure wall thicknesses
generally remain within commercially available thickness schedules.
Where pipeline design pressure increases above the specified limit, the designer is required to
calculate the required wall thickness values or alternatively seek ExxonMobil approval for using a
different specification pipe or material if the calculated thicknesses are not commercially
available.
112. Pipe and fittings selected are ASME-B36.10/B36.19 and ASME-B16.9 standard diameters, with
special transition pieces provided to allow connection of the B36.10/B36.19 piping to API 6A
flanges and other fittings in line classes containing API 6A flanges. This is because ASMEB36.10/B36.19 pipe is commercially more readily available than pressure pipe made to suit API
6A fitting hub diameters. If however, pipe and fittings compliant with API 6A dimensions are to be
used, the designer must calculate the wall thicknesses required for each applicable size used.
113. ASTM-A694/A694M F60 and MSS SP75/ASTM-A860 WPHY 60 materials shall be impact tested in
accordance with the following:
Component / Standard

Flanges to ASME B16.5 /

Note: where ASME-B31.3, Table 323.3.5, exceeds the requirements under the above stated
specifications for impact testing, ASME-B31.3, Table 323.3.5 shall govern.
114. Supply, Manufacture and Testing (including impact testing) of API 5L X60 Linepipe in
accordance with PG- PDS 29-99-09.

115. Pipeline Design Temperature is limited to 65C to avoid derating of pipe steel as required by
AS2885-2007, Clause 3.4.3.
116. Unlisted components and materials are subject to the requirements of ASME B31.3, or AS 2885
as applicable. Refer to Technical Note Use of Unlisted Piping Materials and Components for
guidance on proposed qualification methodology for unlisted materials and components.

117. Minimum requirements for materials, manufacture and testing of pipeline and flowline fittings
and flanges installed as part of facilities piping within AS 2885 piping areas in accordance with
PG-PDS 29-01-11, unless otherwise noted.
118. The following API 6A sizes shall be used where nominal pipe sizes are shown on P&ID for API 6A
valves/flanges:

Description
Assigned to paragraphs that require the Owner's Engineer to provide additional information or make
a decision.
Assigned to paragraphs that require approval from the Owner's Engineer before the work may
proceed or the design is finalized.
Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is reduced costs. Reduced
cost in this context refers to initial investment cost and does not include Life-Cycle cost
considerations. Life-Cycle cost considerations are captured under reliability, maintainability, or
operability purpose codes.
Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is driven by environmental

considerations. Environmental considerations typically include specifications intended to protect
against emissions/leakage to the air, water, and/or soil. Deviations from the specifications contained
in such paragraphs require formal review and approval according to local environmental policy.
Assigned to paragraphs that provide only clarifying information such as Scope statements, definitions
of terms, etc.
Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is to provide for

maintainability of equipment or systems. Maintainability provisions are those that facilitate the
performance of maintenance on equipment/systems either during downtimes or during on-stream
operations.
Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is to assure operability of

equipment or systems. Operability is the ability of the equipment/system to perform satisfactorily
even though conditions are off-design, such as during startups, process swings, subcomponent
malfunction, etc.
Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is to improve or assure the
reliability of equipment or systems. Reliability is a measure of the ability of equipment/systems to
operate without malfunction or failure between planned maintenance interventions.
Assigned to paragraphs containing specifications whose primary purpose is avoidance of personnel

or operational safety incidents. Any deviation from the specifications contained in such designated
paragraphs requires formal review and approval according to local safety policy.
Personnel Safety:
Refers to the avoidance of recordable personnel injuries; i.e., burns, cuts,

abrasions, inhalation, or exposure to dangerous substances, etc., that could result
in medical treatment, restricted work, lost-time incidents, or fatalities.
Operational
Safety:
Refers to the prevention and control of process releases, fires, explosions, etc.
