Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. No person
				  shall engage in the transmission of carbon dioxide or undertake the
				  construction or extension of any facility therefor, or acquire or operate any
				  such facility or extension thereof to serve secondary or tertiary recovery
				  projects for the enhanced recovery of liquid or gaseous hydrocarbons or
				  geologic sequestration project unless there is in force and effect with respect
				  to such person an order of the commissioner authorizing such acts or
				  operations. Provided, however, as to any person engaged in the transmission of
				  carbon dioxide or the operation of any such facility to serve an existing
				  secondary or tertiary recovery project for enhanced recovery of liquid or
				  gaseous hydrocarbons or geologic sequestration project prior to the effective
				  date of these regulations, over the routes and within the area for which
				  application is made and has so operated since that time, the commissioner may
				  issue such order without hearing and without requiring further proof that the
				  public interest will be served upon certification by the operator that it is
				  willing and able to comply with LAC 33:V, excepting the requirements for
				  construction and design specifications, together with such other exceptions as
				  the commissioner may grant to an applicant, if application for such order is
				  made to the commissioner within 180 days after the effective date of these
				  regulations. Pending the determination of any such application, the continuance
				  of such operation shall be lawful. Provided further, that any person engaged in
				  the construction of a facility for the transmission of carbon dioxide prior to
				  the effective date of these regulations is authorized to continue such
				  construction without an order of the commissioner for a period of 180 days
				  after the effective date of these regulations, after which time said

				  determination of any such application, the continuance of such construction
				  shall be lawful.
B. No person
				  engaged in the transmission of carbon dioxide shall abandon all or part of its
				  facilities therefor subject to the jurisdiction of the commissioner, or any
				  service rendered by means of such facilities, unless there is in force and
				  effect an order of the commissioner authorizing said abandonment upon finding
				  that:
1. the available supply of carbon
				  dioxide is depleted to the extent that the continuance of service is
				  unwarranted; or
2. that the public
				  interest and energy needs permit such abandonment.

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. Internal design pressure for the pipe in a
				  pipeline is determined in accordance with the following formula.
P = (2 St/D) x E x F
P = internal design pressure in pounds per square inch
					 gauge
S = yield strength in pounds per square inch determined in
					 accordance with Subsection B of this Section
t = nominal wall thickness of the pipe in inches
D = nominal outside diameter of the pipe in inches
E = seam joint factor determined in accordance with
					 Subsection E of this Section
F = a design factor of 0.72, except that a design factor of
					 0.60 is used for pipe, including risers, on a platform located offshore or on a
					 platform in inland navigable waters, and 0.54 is used for pipe that has been
					 subjected to cold working to meet the specified minimum yield strength and is
					 subsequently heated, other than by welding or stress relieving as a part of
					 welding to a temperature higher than 900° F (482° C) for any period of
					 time or over 600° F (318° C) for more than one hour.
B. The yield strength to be used in
				  determining the internal design pressure under Subsection A of this Section is
				  the specified minimum yield strength. If the specified minimum yield strength
				  is not known, the yield strength is determined by performing all of the tensile
				  tests of API Standard 5L on randomly selected test specimens with the following
				  number of tests.
Pipe Size
Number of Tests
Less than 6 inches in outside diameter
One test for each 200 joints
6 inches through 12-3/4 inches in outside
								diameter
One test for each 100 joints
Larger than 12-3/4 inches in outside
								diameter
One test for each 50 joints
If the average yield-tensile ratio exceeds 0.85, the yield
					 strength of the pipe is taken as 24,000 psi. If the average yield-tensile ratio
					 is 0.85 or less, the yield strength of the pipe is taken as the lower of the
					 following:
1. 80 percent of the
				  average yield strength determined by the tensile tests;
2. the lowest yield strength determined by
				  the tensile tests.

				  components must be supported in such a way that the support does not cause
				  excess localized stresses. In designing attachments to pipe, the added stress
				  to the wall of the pipe must be computed and compensated for.
