  1. API 17 – Subsea Boosting DiscussionRecommended Practice for Integrity Management, Qualification Requirements, and Referenced Standards • Purpose of discussion: • Seek common ground and new insight into issues related to recommended practices for qualification and integrity of subsea boosting equipment • Gauge interest in establishing a focused industry group in API committee 17 to address this topic • Talking Points: • An industry standard RP on subsea boosting should help gain project approvals from regulatory agencies • Need standard approach to defining risk and required risk mitigation – Hopefully avoid potential barriers to SS boosting project approvals • Can we continue to rely on “due diligence”, or should we have an agreed recommended practice? • What does “qualified” mean for SS Processing? Requirements to gain regulatory agency approval? To ensure safety and integrity? Where/how to qualify? • Should qualification philosophy be “Test to Success” or “Test to Failure”? Standard guidelines for qualification testing? • Qualification: should there be STD simulated fluids, viscosity, temp, gvf and STD output format • Could we use existing SS standards (API 17N,P,O,Q,D, ISO 13628)? – or is a new one needed to clarify? • Could other industry standards be utilized? DNV RP A203? Or ?? • Do (or should?) standards define a “qualified “ system or just a systematic framework for doing things? • How have Operators adapted qualification processes to project requirements and timelines?
