Asme B31.8: Gas Transmission And Distribution Piping Systems

Be The First To Comment

Scope

A pipeline or transmission line is defined as that pipe which transmits gas from a source or sources of supply to one or more large-volume customers or to a pipe used to interconnect sources of supply. ASME B31.8 prescribes requirements for the design, fabrication, installation, testing, and safety aspects of operation and maintenance of gas transmission and distribution piping systems, including gas pipelines, gas compressor stations, gas metering and regulation stations, gas mains, and service lines up to the outlet of the customer’s meter set assembly.

Also included within the scope of ASME B31.8 are gas storage equipment of the closed-pipe type, fabricated or forged from pipe or fabricated from pipe and fittings, and gas storage lines.
