7.0 THERMAL INSULATION MATERIALS AND APPLICATIONS
7.1 INSULATION SYSTEMS
7.1.1 DESIGN OF SYSTEMS

The thermal insulation systems are defined in the standards referred to in Section 6.
The temperature limitations for acceptable insulation materials shall be as per material
specifications in Appendix 2. However, Vendor’s available manufacturing range shall be
considered. Calculation methods for heat transfer shall be as per ISO 12241
For specific cases not covered by these standards, the Contractor shall submit any variant to
the COMPANY for approval before application.
7.1.2 USE OF THE SYSTEMS

The following parameters and criteria provide a quick guide for selecting the most appropriate
system or systems for each situation.
7.1.3 TYPE OF EQUIPMENT

 Pressure vessels and heat exchangers;
 Storage tanks;
 Piping systems.
7.1.4 DEFINITION OF ATMOSPHERE OR ENVIRONMENT

The external corrosion threat has to be assessed in terms of local conditions since not all
atmospheric conditions lead to a Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) threat. Consequently the
insulation systems can be divided into industrial, marine and offshore with increasing level of
environmental severity and CUI threat as follows (ISO 12944-2 definitions are referred):
Rural atmosphere: the atmosphere prevailing in rural areas and small towns, without significant
contamination by corrosive agents such as sulphur dioxide and/or chlorides.
Urban atmosphere: the contaminated atmosphere prevailing in densely populated areas without
significant industry. It has moderate concentrations of pollutants such as sulphur dioxide and/or
chlorides.
Industrial atmosphere: the atmosphere contaminated by corrosive pollutants from local and
regional industry (mainly sulphur dioxide)
Marine atmosphere: atmosphere which prevails at sea, along coastlines and immediately in
land, and characterised by the presence in the air of sea water spray, more or less saline mist
and by the absence of dust.
Offshore environment: Offshore environment shall be considered as specific atmospheres.

Offshore atmospheres are assumed to represent exposure conditions that are always severe
and represent a major external corrosion threat. Offshore environment covers equipment and
piping installed on production facilities located offshore.
7.1.5 PARAMETER CODING SYSTEM AND IDENTIFICATION OF SYSTEMS
7.1.6 PARAMETER CODING SYSTEM
DESIGNATION ENVIRONMENT
IN Rural, urban and industrial
MA Marine
OS Offshore
Temperature range:
SNNN/SNNN: two-part code comprising a sign (S) and three digits (NNN) indicating the
minimum and maximum operating temperatures.
Note:
The maximum operating temperature shall be used to select the thermal insulation system and
to determine the thermal insulation thickness.
This temperature will be that referenced in the line list associated with process design. For a
given unit, it may be necessary to define two or more thermal insulation systems.
7.1.7 IDENTIFICATION OF SYSTEM

Insulation systems are described in Appendix 1 and the detailed material specifications for these
systems are indicated in Appendix 2.
Appendix 3 indicates typical assembly details for insulation systems but

manufacturers/applicators require to be consulted for specific job requirements also.
Alternative protective jacketing may be used, depending on the area in which the equipment is
installed.
In the vicinity of stainless steel equipment, galvanised steel jacketing should not be used due to
the risk of liquid metal embrittlement of stainless steel equipment by molten zinc in the event of
fire.
For installations in which a significant Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) threat is identified in a
temperature range ambient to +120°C, then closed cell insulation systems such as cellular glass
and Flexible Elastomeric foam (FEF) shall be specified, in conjunction with polymeric jacketing.
The method for CUI inspection are defined in 10008-STD-6-STA-014, PEGS-0710-INL-001.
CUI monitoring methods can be achieved by installation of CUI probes at locations where water
accumulation is most likely to occur.

7.2 PERFORMANCE LEVEL
The specific insulation codes as provided below refer to Appendix 4 which is the controlling
document for specification of insulation codes.
Class H: Hot (Heat retention)
Maximum unit heat loss according to values given in the job specification (W/m2 on equipment
and W/ml on piping).
Classes P: Personnel protection
Maximum operating temperature: 70°C.
Personnel protection insulation designation are defined in 10008-STD-6-STA-014, PEGS-0710-

INL-001 and metal mesh protection is the preferred solution.
Class I and K: Anti icing and Anti condensation
Pprotection from condensation, freezing and ice formation within piping/vessels No disruption
of service when temperatures fall below 0°C.
The designation of condensation control are described in 10008-STD-6-STA-014, PEGS-0710-

INL-001.
Class E, R and S: Electrical tracing, Liquid tracing and Steam tracing
Insulation with reheating (Electrical heat tracing, liquid tracing and Steam tracing)
Maximum unit heat loss according to values given in the job specification.
Class B: Protection against solar radiation
The temperature of equipment or piping protected by covers or screens shall not exceed the
critical temperature of the fluids contained (taking into account maximum local solar radiation).
The thermal efficiency and integrity of the thermal insulation shall be guaranteed for a minimum
of five years from the date of acceptance.
7.2.1 FIRE RESISTANCE PERFORMANCE

Unless otherwise specified the combustible insulation materials such as FEF shall meet the
requirements of ASTM E 84 for flame spread index and smoke development index.
Other requirements for fire resistance performance in terms of heat generation, flame spread
and smoke development may apply depending on the facilities being assessed and local fire
regulations require to be specified e.g. BS 476 Part 6, 7 may be specified for Northern
Continental shelf or IMO Res. MSC61 (67) regulations for shipping or FPSO units.

7.3 GENERAL CONDITIONS FOR EXECUTION OF WORKS
7.3.1 PROFICIENCY OF INSTALLATION CONTRACTORS

However, this list is not exhaustive and insulation installation details for piping, pressure vessels
and tanks shall be developed in the insulation handbook between Contractor and supplier.
For systems operating between ambient and 120°C and when CUI is of principal concern,
closed cell FEF (or alternatively cellular glass) shall be used as this affords greater protection
against the threat of CUI compared with open cells systems.
For closed cell FEF, the design and installation shall take account of thermal expansion of the
insulation material with temperature. The jacketing material shall be capable of accommodating
the expansion without causing splitting of the outer membrane and/or insulation.
Mineral wool or FEF insulation shall be installed with seams or joints sealed with contact
adhesive. Seams shall be staggered when applying multiple layers of insulation.
The polymeric outer jacket shall be applied as per the suppliers’ instructions and all
circumferential and longitudinal joints shall have a minimum overlap of 50 mm. Overlaps shall
be designed to provide natural “water shedding”. All jacket sealants shall be constituted with

adhesive and joint sealant properties. Jacket sealant shall be applied with a minimum throat
thickness of 3 mm and with a minimum bead width of 10 mm.
For small bore pipe penetration, i.e. 2” NB and below, located upwards between 10 o’clock and
2 o’clock position and at any protrusion where a correct application of watertight sealant bead
at the termination is not practical or at COMPANY request, the jacketing termination shall be
constructed with a double sealing arrangement. Typical arrangement with “Chinese hat” is
shown on Appendix 3. Alternate arrangement with fully glued polymer double barrier may be
proposed, subject to review and approval by COMPANY before implementation.
