AbstractThis paper discuss the safety philosophy and limit state design methodology adopted in the new revision of Det Norske Veritas @NV) "Rules for Submarine Pipeline Systems".The new Ruies completed late 19% (denoted D W % in the following) constitutes a complete revision of the previous Ruies h m 1981 and provide a significant step fornard for pipeline design and operation. D W % adopts the latest research achievements and practical experience gained through the most challenging pipeline projects recently executed. The adopted limit state format allows for a large flexibility in design. It applies explicit design checks for physical limit states rather than implicit design check covering a number of failure modes.The safety philosophy adopted including the novel safety class concept will be discussed. The background for design criteria related to pressure containment are presented and the principles for assessing and accounting for the influence of system effects, material quality, hydro test and pressure safety systems are discussed.The implicit higher allowable utilisation given by the LRFD-format for the pressure containment is illustrated. Design performance, feedback from the industry and experience gained since the issue will be discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
