Full title and description

Petroleum and natural gas industries — Glass-reinforced plastics (GRP) piping — Part 1: Vocabulary, symbols, applications and materials. This International Standard defines terms, symbols and the general application and material limits for GRP piping used in petroleum and natural gas installations; it also gives guidance for use and interpretation of the other parts of the ISO 14692 series.

Abstract

ISO 14692-1:2017 establishes the vocabulary, symbols, application classification, pressure‑rating methodology and the limitations on materials and dimensions for GRP piping systems used in the petroleum and natural gas industries. It provides guidance for interpretation and application of ISO 14692 Parts 2, 3 and 4 and describes the intended envelope of applications (primarily offshore topsides but also applicable to similar onshore services).

Scope

ISO 14692-1:2017 applies to GRP piping systems that use joints capable of restraining axial thrust and that have a trapezoidal design‑envelope. The part sets out the vocabulary, symbols and general application limits, describes pressure‑rating terminology and classifies products by application, joint type and resin matrix. It is primarily aimed at offshore topsides (fixed and floating) but may be used for comparable onshore services such as produced‑water, firewater and other industrial lines; it can also serve as a basis for piping used in pump caissons, stilling tubes and seawater lift risers.

Key topics and requirements

• Standardized terms, definitions and symbols for GRP piping and related components.
• Classification of GRP products by application, joint type and resin matrix.
• Pressure‑rating methodology and pressure terminology used across the ISO 14692 series.
• Limitations on materials of construction and on dimensional ranges for GRP piping.
• Guidance on interpretation and application of Parts 2 (qualification and manufacture), 3 (system design) and 4 (fabrication, installation and operation).
• Applicability notes for offshore fixed and floating topsides and recommendations for floating hull/vessel design interactions.

Typical use and users

Used by piping and mechanical engineers, specification writers, manufacturers and fabricators of GRP pipe, EPC contractors, inspection and testing organisations, classification societies and asset owners/operators in the oil & gas sector. Typical applications include process piping, produced‑water systems, firewater and utility lines on offshore platforms and comparable onshore industrial installations.

Related standards

ISO 14692 is a multi‑part series; Part 1 is intended to be read with: ISO 14692‑2 (Qualification and manufacture), ISO 14692‑3 (System design) and ISO 14692‑4 (Fabrication, installation and operation). Other related documents frequently referenced with GRP piping include standards and guidance on non‑metallic materials for oil and gas services and recognised national/industry documents covering testing and installation practices.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO 14692-1:2017 is the first part of the ISO 14692 series providing vocabulary, symbols, application classes and material/dimensional limits for GRP piping used in the petroleum and natural gas industries.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers definitions and symbols, classification by application and resin type, pressure‑rating terminology and general limits (materials and dimensions), plus guidance for using Parts 2–4 of the series. It also describes intended applications, with emphasis on offshore topsides but applicability to similar onshore services.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Piping designers and engineers, GRP manufacturers and fabricators, EPC contractors, asset owners/operators, inspection bodies and classification societies working on oil & gas piping systems.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: ISO 14692-1:2017 (Edition 2) is the current published edition, replacing ISO 14692-1:2002. The ISO lifecycle indicates periodic review (typically every 5 years). For procurement or compliance, confirm the latest status with the national body or ISO.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — ISO 14692 is published in multiple parts. Part 1 is the vocabulary and general requirements document; Parts 2, 3 and 4 cover qualification & manufacture, system design, and fabrication/installation/operation respectively.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: GRP, glass‑reinforced plastics, piping, pressure rating, resin matrix, offshore topsides, vocabulary, system design, qualification, fabrication.
