BS EN ISO 13628-3:2001 - Page 3

Petroleum and natural gas industries. Design and operation of subsea production systems. Through flowline (TFL) systems | Status: Current, Proposed for withdrawal

1 Scope This part of ISO 13628 specifies requirements and gives recommendations for the design, fabrication and operation of TFL equipment and systems. The procedures and requirements presented are for the hydraulic servicing of downhole equipment, subsea tree and tubing hanger, and flowlines and equipment within the flowlines. This part of ISO 13628 primarily addresses TFL systems for offshore, subsea applications but it may also be used in other applications such as highly-deviated wells or horizontally-drilled wells. Subsea separation, boosting, metering and downhole pumps are outside the scope of this part of ISO 13628.
