API 17A provides general requirements and recommendations for the development of subsea production systems, from the design phase to decommissioning and abandonment. This document also references to other API 17-series documents as well as various other relevant industry documents.

The complete subsea production system comprises several subsystems necessary to produce hydrocarbons from one or more subsea wells and transfer them to a given processing facility located offshore (fixed, floating, or subsea) or onshore, or to inject water/gas through subsea wells.

This document, given its broad scope, has a systems engineering section. The purpose of this section is to help ensure consistency across the various subsystems.

If requirements as stated in this document are in conflict with, or are inconsistent with, requirements as stated in other API 17-series documents, then the specific requirements in the subsystems series document(s) take precedence.

This recommended practice (RP) aims to provide operators, contractors and suppliers with guidance on the management and application of reliability and integrity management (RIM) engineering techniques in subsea projects and operations within their scope of work and supply. It is applicable to:

— standard and nonstandard equipment (within the scope of API 17A);

— new field developments, further development of existing fields and field upgrades;

— all life cycle phases from feasibility through design, manufacture, and operation to decommissioning.

NOTE API 18LCM ^[1] gives additional guidance on general requirements for life cycle management of equipment.

This RP is not intended to replace individual company processes, procedures, document nomenclature, or numbering; it is a guide. For example, this RP does not prescribe the use of any specific equipment or process. It does not recommend any actions, beyond good engineering practice. However, this RP may be used to enhance existing processes, if deemed appropriate.

This standard specifies the general labelling requirements for electrical equipment, fittings and electrical appliances and their detachable heating element (s) if any, offered for sale in Guyana.

This Guyana Standard shall be applied to all electrical equipment, fittings and electrical appliances and should therefore be a standard for a particular products. It shall be applied in conjunction with the labelling requirements of this standard.

This part provides standardized calculation methods for the determination of meter factors under defined conditions, regardless of the point of origin or destination or units of

measure required by governmental customs or statute. The criteria contained here will allow different entities using various computer languages on different computer hardware (or by manual calculations) to arrive at identical results using the same standardized input data. 

This document also specifies the equations for computing correction factors, including the calculation sequence, discrimination levels, and rules for rounding to be employed in the calculations. No deviations from these specified equations are permitted, since the intent of this document is to establish a rigorous standard.

IEC 61511-2 provides guidance on the specification design , installation operation and maintenance of safety instrumented functions and related safety instrumented system as defined in IEC 61511-1. This standard has been organized so that each clause and sub clause number herein addresses the same number in IEC 61511-1 (with the exception of the annexes).

This International standard applies to the generation of electromagnetic energy from sound and television receivers for the reception of broadcast and similar transmissions and from associated equipment. The frequency covered extends from 9 kHz to 400 GHz.

This part of IEC 60076 defines sound pressure and sound intensity measurement methods by which sound power levels of transformers reactors and their associated auxiliaries may be determined.

Part 4-41 pf IEC specifies essential requirements regarding protection against electric shock. Including basic protection (protection against direct contact) and fault protection (protection against indirect contact) of persons and livestock. It deals also with the application and co-ordination of these requirements in relation to external influences.

This Part 1 of International standard IEC 50598 specifies general requirements for luminaires incorporating electric light sources for operation from supply voltages up to 1000V. The requirements and related tests of this standard cover, classification , marking , mechanical construction and electrical construction .

This technical report presents an overview and guidance for the IEC 61158 series. IT explains the structure and content of IEC 61158, shows how to use it in combination with IEC 61784, and relates the structure to the ISO/IEC 7498 OSI basic reference model.
