Contact the Publisher, API Publishing Services, 1220 L Street, NW, Washington, DC 20005.Copyright 2012 American Petroleum InstituteForewordThis document was generated, by means of the BASICS Joint Industry Project (JIP) in response to the continuing problem of bl
11、ockages occurring in control and chemical injection fluid (CIF) conduits incorporated in subsea production systems (SPSs). The JIP committee comprised a representative cross section of experienced industry personnel from engineering, manufacturing and operational organizations. While there are unive
12、rsally accepted standards for the design of a SPS and its sub-systems, none of these standards specifically address the subject of blockages and the measures necessary to minimize the risk of such occurrences. The intent of the BASICS JIP is to produce a recommended practice document for global indu
13、stry use to address the issue using a holistic system approach.This document is intended to be used as a reference guide by designers and operators of SPSs and also by control and production chemical fluid (PCF) manufacturers. It is also intended to be used as a reference document to enable audits t
14、o be undertaken to ensure that blockages avoidance has been properly considered as part of SPS design and operations reviews.Additionally, the document has been designed to be educational such that persons new to the industry, or, less experienced persons within the industry, can understand the exte
15、nt and complexity of SPSs and more readily assimilate the blockage avoidance content contained herein.Nothing contained in any API publication is to be construed as granting any right, by implication or otherwise, for the manufacture, sale, or use of any method, apparatus, or product covered by lett

25、ience of the system and fluid designers.While the aim of this document is to prevent blockages in a SPS, it also addresses the issues of topside equipment which provides the control and chemical injection (CI) services necessary for the operation and performance of a SPS. The correct design of a SPS
26、 and the fluids to be utilized, and operation of the SPS including topside fluid bunkering, are critically important in avoiding blockages.2 Normative ReferencesThe following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
