1 Introduction
1.1 Purpose
This specification is written to document the information that is to be used to perform the pipe stress
analysis calculations on the Ivar Aasen Field pdQ project. The Piping Stress Analysis Procedure details
the methods, codes and standards that are to be used to perform the stress analysis. This document
contains the required input design data that shall be used for the calculations.
The calculation input data includes the loading parameters to be used in the Caesar II pipe stress
analysis program for the wind, blast and transport loads. A minimum of three calculations are required to
be completed for each comprehensive calculation on the hydrocarbon process lines and the safety
critical line.. They are Operating, Transport and Blast. At the discretion of the Pipe Stress Engineer
additional calculations may be required.
1.2 Definitions
Can Can requirements are conditional and indicate a possibility open to the user of
the standard.
May May indicates a course of action that is permissible within the limits of the
standard.
NORSOK Norsk Sokkels Konkuranseposisjon – Standards developed by the Norwegian
Technology Centre.
Shall Shall is an absolute requirement which shall be followed strictly in order to
conform with the standard.
Should Should is a recommendation. Alternatives having the same functionality and
quality are acceptable.

Dropped object deflections shall be run as occasional loads in the operating condition.
Imposed deck deflections shall be considered from the platform lift/transport case.
Changes in the deflected shape of the deck due to the change in the deck support points
between the construction phase and the topsides final installed position.
The structural deck deflection data will be required to be supplied by the Structural Design Team for
each of the above conditions.
A Blast Loading analysis shall be completed on all stress critical lines containing hydrocarbons and
all safety critical lines. It shall be applied with the operating load conditions of temperature and
pressure etc.
The blast load shall be input as a static pressure using the wind loading pressure versus elevation
criteria in the Caesar II pipe stress analysis program. The following design criteria shall be used;
The pipe shape factor shall be taken as 0.7
The dynamic load factor for the blast shall be 1.5
The blast load case will be applied with the piping operating temperatures and
pressures.
The blast load will be taken to be as listed in the pdQ areas below.
Snow and ice loading will not be considered in combination with blast.
SIF’s can be set to 1.0 as per ASME B31.3 Interpretation Number 6.

Area A :- Blast load = 0.1 Bar drag load hydrocarbon and safety critical piping
Area B :- Blast load = 0.1 Bar drag load hydrocarbon and safety critical piping
Area C :- Blast load = 0.1 Bar drag load hydrocarbon and safety critical piping
Area D :- Blast load = 0.2 Bar drag load hydrocarbon and safety critical piping
Area E :- Blast load = 0.1 Bar drag load hydrocarbon and safety critical piping
Area F :- Blast load = 0.2 Bar drag load hydrocarbon and safety critical piping
Area G :- Blast load = 0.2 Bar drag load hydrocarbon and safety critical piping
The slug size and velocity shall be defined by the Process Department. The slug load forces (F1, F2
etc.) will be calculated based on size and velocity of the slug and will be applied as static loads to
elbows and tees in the Caesar II analysis Operating load cases.
1 10.5 13.8
10 12.5 14.9
For the analysis hydrodynamic drag and inertia coefficients (Cd and Cm) should be taken as;
Cd = 0.8
Cm = 2.0
As the accelerations for this load case are considerably lower than the values for the transport load
cases it is not normally run.
The ice loading caused by rain and snow on exposed horizontal and vertical piping surfaces shall be
included with a thickness of 10mm and a density of 900 kg/m3.
Snow and Icing in the Operating load cases shall be considered in combination with the 100-year
return period of the other environmental conditions.
The tables below show that the snow loading is considerably higher than the ice loads so the ice
loads will not be considered.
Table 2.11-1 Snow Loading.

SNOW LOAD = 500 N/m
Snow and ice loading will not be considered in the transportation load cases.

2.12 Insulation
The piping insulation on the Ivar Aasen project is split into nine insulation classes. Where options are
available for the use of alternative insulation materials and thickness values the option giving the
highest loads have been tabulated below in Table 2.10-1.
Class 4 316 SS
Cellular Glass 128 0.7 50
Frost Protection 8000
Class 9
316 SS See Table 3.2(2)
External Condensation & Cellular Glass 128 0.7
8000 DN02-AE-M-RA-0002
Icing Protection
The maximum pipe support, vendor package and pressure vessel loads will be taken from the
maximum and minimum design temperature loads. These load cases are listed in Section 3 below.
The worst combination of Load cases 4 to 26 will be used.
The pump and compressor nozzle reaction loads will be taken from the max operating load cases
that are listed in Section 3 below. The worse combination of loads from Load Cases 14 to18 will be
used..

For a specific analysis, the number of load cases required will vary. If there are no forces (F) or imposed
displacements (D), those cases won’t be analyzed.
Note
In all the load case sets it is the responsibility of the Stress Engineer to indicate where hold downs are
required on the pipe supports shown on the Stress Isometric. The Stress Engineer must also confirm
that the summary pipe support loads match the values in the Caesar II output load cases. It is particulary
important that this manual check is completed were pipe supports are designed with gaps.

This Calculation satisfies the structural integrity and the flexibility requirements of the ASME B31.3
Process Piping Code.
The Equipment Nozzle Loads are within the allowable values provided by the vendor for the Operating
load cases and less than 150% of the allowable value for the Blast load case.
All flanges and hubs have been evaluated as per the Project Pipe Stress Analysis Procedure DN02-SM-
L-KA-0001 and all ratios are less than 100%.
All the Flange and hub ratios are less than 150% for blast load cases.
