Hose and hose assemblies for petroleum and petroleum products - Marine suction and discharge
Standards Australia
Specifies requirements for hose and hose assemblies for conveying petroleum and petroleum products at product temperatures up to 70C and in ambient temperatures ranging from -20C to 65C, but does not include requirements for off-shore mooring use. Appendices include a method for the determination of resistance of hose to hydrostatic pressure and a test for flexibility of hose. A guide to testing hose assemblies for in-service performance is also given.
This Standard specifies requirements for hose and hose assemblies for conveying petroleum and petroleum products at product temperatures up to 70C and in ambient temperatures ranging from -20C to 65C. It applies to hoses commonly used for transferring crude oil and liquefied petroleum products (other than LP gas and natural gas) to and from marine tankers and bunkering vessels or for similar duties ashore.
The Standard does not specify requirements for off-shore mooring use as such hoses are subject to more rigorous conditions of use than those specified in this Standard.
NOTES:
1 Users of this Standard are advised to consult the 'International Oil Tanker and Safety Guide' issued by the Institute of Petroleum, London, which has been widely adopted by the oil industry in Australia as a guide for handling petroleum products.
2 Appendix A contains recommendations and advice on information which should be provided by the purchaser at the time of enquiry or order.
