This standard practice is intended for use by pipeline operators and others who must manage pipeline integrity for the threat of SCC. SCCDA as described in this standard is specifically intended to address buried onshore petroleum (natural gas, crude oil, and refined products) production, transmission, and distribution pipelines constructed from line-pipe steels. Users of this standard must be familiar with all applicable pipeline safety regulations for the jurisdiction in which the pipeline operates. This includes all regulations requiring specific pipeline integrity assessment practices and programs.
