This discussion will high light some of the findings in the first edition of API standard 17TR8, rec ognize the work being done for the second edition, and touch on some of th e work being done by other API subcommittees. \;
17TR8 is an API technical report published in February, 2015 to establi sh design methods, material functional specifications, and design validati on requirements for equipment operating above 15000 psi and 350 F, \;< strong>specifically for subsea equipment.
As the first de sign guideline, 17TR8 provides the industry a foothold in developing other HPHT standards for based on current high pressure design theory and fract ure mechanics protocols developed since the late 1970's. It also worked ha rd to reconcile these more advanced design guidelines with grandfathered e quipment, built without these advanced design tools/theories, but neverthe less qualified through rigorous material practices and exhaustive qualific ation tests and in service history.
Since its introduction, other S ubcommittees within API's CSOEM are now using 17TR8 as a template in part or in total to develop their own HPHT guidelines.
The 2015 publishi ng date was a compromise by the task group to get most of the basic guidel ines out to the industry in time to address pressing pending projects. But not all of the vexing issues could be brokered in time. So the task group has embarked on a second edition of 17TR8 to provide clarity of existing text and address outstanding issues not addressed in the first edition. Th e second edition is not intended to change scope or direction\; merely to clarify and provide additional insight and guidance.
