1.0 Purpose, Objectives and Scope
1.1 The purpose of this document is to provide the minimum requirements for the use, management and
change to the Husky Specifications which have a scope as outlined in Section 1.3 of this Specification.
1.2 The objectives of Husky Specifications are:

• To provide up-to-date, uniform and consistent standards and specifications that can be applied on a
broad basis to new facility design, procurement and construction, and to support ongoing facility
design activities.
• To document approved practices and standards that:
− Meet or exceed applicable regulatory requirements
− Embody good engineering practice
− Capture Husky construction/operating/maintenance experience and current
safety/ environmental requirements
• To support projects in balancing life-cycle costs, schedule and quality/safety/risk requirements
• Enable quality assurance (QA) and inspection systems to have a set specification basis for
establishing compliance and acceptable quality
1.3 The scope of Husky Specifications is to:

• Supercede the “Production Division Standard Specifications”
• Have broad application to oil and gas processing and pipeline facilities but does not include:
− Lloydminster Upgrader (which is using its own specs)
− East Coast/International
− Retail marketing facilities
• Provide standards/specifications that are commonly needed but not those that are readily covered
by existing industry standards. Project-specific specifications should be developed to satisfy needs
beyond these.
1.4 Husky Specifications are intended for use on Husky facilities only. They may be applied to
“grass roots” facilities or to additions to existing facilities. If a Management of Change review supports
using the specification that the facility was originally designed on, then a deviation request should
document this.
1.5 Husky Specifications reside within a management system as shown in Appendix B and as further
described in the following sections.

• Husky Specifications “Specification List.” These Specifications have been considered the current
priority for development and issue.

Appendix F, External Website Management
Site Security:
1. The company hosting the website is the same one Husky uses for the corporate web site. This means
that we do not have to allow anyone into the Husky network to access data.
2. The external Engineering Specification website has a security certificate which encrypts the
connection between the user and the site. This serves to protect the passwords from computer
hackers.
3. The website entry page (Figure 1) is without any branding. A user has to log in before he can view
any titles or content of the site.
4. The user must accept Husky’s legal agreement before being allowed to log in to the website
(Figure 2). The user cannot view anything on the site without being logged in. Until the user accepts
the legal agreement, the only page the user can see when logged in is the legal agreement
(Figures 2 & 3). Once the legal agreement is accepted, the user can navigate the site (Figure 4).
Future log-ins will not prompt for acceptance of the agreement.
5. Each company (vendor, supplier or engineering contractor) will be issued a user identification and
password to access the site.
6. The Document Controller (Administrative Assistant, Corporate Technical Services) will control
access to the website, under the direction of the Engineering and Project Management team, by
issuing usernames and passwords, and will also delete access to the site as directed.
7. The website automatically creates a record of what is viewed and downloaded from the site by
username.
Site Administration:
1. The Document Controller maintains the engineering specifications on the Husky Intranet site
location (Engineering and Project Management web page), and on the Husky Engineering
Specifications external website.
2. The external website has an e-mail function to notify all users if a document of the site has been
revised. This allows Husky to guarantee that if a specification or document on the website has
changed, that all users are aware of the most current revision.
3. On an annual basis, the Document Controller will verify with the Engineering and Project
Management team that all users registered with access to the external website should retain that
access.

Rev. 1
3.0 Design Parameters
3.1 General
3.1.1 There are four basic fluid design parameters that are required to complete the mechanical design of
pipelines. They are design pressure, design temperature, type and phase of the fluid, and H2 S content of
the fluid.
3.1.2 Maximum Operating Pressure (MOP)
3.1.2.1 MOP is the maximum pressure limit for the pipeline under operating conditions. The MOP is
established by the owner and designer and is reported to the governing regulatory agency in the
application for the pipeline licence.
3.1.2.2 The pipeline must be qualified by pressure testing at a pressure higher than the MOP The required
pressure multiplier is set either by the regulator directly or by reference to codes or standards. If the
appropriate pressure for the desired MOP is not achieved at the time of testing, the regulator will assign
the highest MOP that can be allowed for the pressure that was achieved. Once the MOP is established
for a pipeline it cannot be increased without performing another pressure test, therefore, it is extremely
important to choose the MOP wisely.
3.1.2.3 The licenced MOPs of pipelines that receive fluid from, or deliver fluid to a pipeline will influence the
choice of MOP for the new line. Regulatory agencies and design codes generally require that lower
pressure pipelines be protected from overpressure by higher pressure lines, through the use of check
valves and pressure limiting valves. The cost and inconvenience of installing and maintaining these
devices can often be avoided by adjusting the MOP of the new line to coincide with the existing lines.
3.1.3 Design Pressure
3.1.3.1 Design pressure is used by the engineer or designer, primarily for stress calculations, pipe and
component selection. The design pressure must always be at least equal to the MOP
3.1.3.2 The Owner or engineer may choose to design at a pressure higher than the MOP to allow for flexibility
in the design such as future higher operating pressure. Other circumstances which may dictate a higher
design pressure include significant pressure variation along the pipeline due to elevation differences,
acceleration, water hammer, slug flow and pigging operations.
3.1.3.3 Designers should also keep in mind that the design factors used for the pipeline should be chosen with
regard to potential future conditions such as urban development encroaching on the pipeline.
3.1.4 Normal Operating Pressure
3.1.4.1 From an operational viewpoint, a pipeline can only be feasibly operated at a maximum pressure of 90%
of the MOP. Pipelines may require high-pressure shutdown devices, which limit the maximum amount
of pressure that can be imparted to a pipeline. These shutdown devices are usually set to activate at a
pressure of 0.98 to 1.0 times the MOP of the pipeline. In order to prevent nuisance shutdowns,
pipelines would be normally operated at a pressure of 90% of the MOP or at least 350 kPa less than the
MOP of the pipeline. Fluid flow calculations should use the normal operating pressure. For example, if
it is determined that an operating pressure of 10 000 kPa is required to transport 1000 X 103 m³ per day
of gas, then the MOP should be at least 11 000 kPa.

Rev. 1
3.1.5 Unsteady Operating Pressures
3.1.5.1 On two-phase pipelines with low vapor phase velocities and a potential for "slug flow", there may be a
tendency for these types of pipelines to operate with an unsteady “pulsating” pressure. The MOP of
these pipelines should be established high enough to allow for these pressure peaks. Also, if a two-
phase pipeline is to be pigged, the required pipeline operating pressure during the pigging operation
could be higher than the MOP due to the hydrostatic head of the liquid in front of the pig resulting from
elevation changes in the pipeline. If a pig happens to get stuck in the line, it is desirable to be able to
increase the system pressure to try and dislodge the stuck pig. Therefore, again, a higher MOP may be
required to safely operate the pipeline while pigging. The establishment of the pipeline MOP in these
cases should be discussed with the field operations office.
3.1.6 Standard Design Pressures
3.1.6.1 Pipeline designers will often decide to set the MOP of a pipeline system at the maximum pressure
rating of the ANSI flange class, e.g., 9 930 kPa (Class 600 rating), even though the required pressure
for hydraulic design may be lower. This practice usually adds some flexibility and safety to the design,
and does not usually result in a substantial cost for short pipeline systems. In longer pipeline systems,
the cost of the extra wall thickness will be much larger, therefore, the designer should consider the
economics of choosing to design at one of the ANSI Class pressures.
3.2 Design Temperatures
3.2.1 Design Temperature
3.2.1.1 The minimum design temperature used for oil and gas pipelines is -18°C for buried pipe and -45°C for
above-ground pipe without heat tracing.
3.2.2 Maximum Design Temperature
3.2.2.1 The maximum design temperature for pipelines is usually set at 5°C to10°C higher than the maximum
expected normal operating temperature. The temperature rating of the external coating system must be
at least equal to the maximum design temperature. The maximum temperature for standard CSA
Z245.21 system A1 and A2 polyethylene coating is 60 to 65o C, and for system B Coating is 85o C.
3.2.3 Design Temperatures Above 65°C
3.2.3.1 If higher maximum temperatures are required, fusion bond epoxy and liquid epoxy coatings are
available with temperature ratings ranging from 75°C to 115°C. Please note that consideration should
be given to high temperature coatings for pipelines that may be subject to hot oil treatments or
steaming such as emulsion lines.
3.2.4 Line Heater Applications
3.2.4.1 Where gases and liquids are to be transported at elevated temperatures and are heated in indirect fired
glycol-bath type line heaters, the discharge temperatures will be in the order of 40°C to 80°C. These
pipelines will almost always require insulation to preserve the fluid temperature during transport.

Rev. 1
3.3 Type and Phase of Fluid
3.3.1 Multiphase Fluids
3.3.1.1 The problem of predicting flow line pressure losses (or head loss) due to friction in multiphase flow is
particularly complex and requires knowledge of the pipeline elevation profile and phase interaction
relations for reasonably accurate calculations. Manual calculations are provided in the Gas Processing
Supplier’s Association (GPSA) Databook, Section 17, which can be used for shorter lines, however,
most designers will employ one of the commercially available flow simulation programs when working
with multiphase pipelines.
3.3.1.2 A long standing rule-of-thumb for wet sour service pipelines with high gas-liquid ratios is to keep the
superficial gas velocity between 3 to 6 m/s in order to help sweep liquids from the low spots in the
pipeline without approaching the erosional velocity. Maximum liquid slug size should be considered in
multiphase pipelines.
3.4 Hydrogen Sulphide Content
3.4.1 CSA Sour Service Definition
3.4.1.1 CSA Standard Z662 considers a gas pipeline to be in “sour service” if the gas being transported
contains more than 0.35 kPa partial pressure of hydrogen sulphide (H2 S). A liquid pipeline is
considered to be in “sour service” if the system pressure is below 1 400 kPa and the vapour phase of
the liquid contains more than 50 mol/kmol of H2 S or if the system pressure is greater than 1 400 kPa
and the partial pressure of the H2 S in the vapour phase is greater than 70 kPa. Refer to CSA Standard
Z662-99, Clause 5.4 Sour Service.
3.4.1.2 In Alberta, the EUB definition of “sour natural gas service” is 10 mol/kmol at any pressure but this is
for licencing purposes. The EUB has additional regulatory and design requirements for sour natural gas
pipelines. Set back distances separating sour natural gas pipelines from developments are outlined in
Interim Directive, ID 81-30.
3.4.1.3 The CSA codes warn pipeline designers that corrosion problems can occur at H2 S concentrations lower
than those cited above if other constituents such as steam, carbon dioxide (CO2 ), and salts in water are
present in the pipeline fluid. However, the codes do not tell you what you should do if the above
situation exists. As a suggestion, the designer should enlist the services of a corrosion consultant to
perform some corrosion potential tests and evaluations. The results of these tests may influence the
designer to specify the pipeline as sour service at a lower H2 S level than what has been cited above or
even if no H2 S is present.
3.4.2 Husky Sour Service Determination
3.4.2.1 Specification PS-PL-05 Line Pipe Specification – Sour Service defines two categories of sour service,
Region 1 Transition Sour and Region 2 Sour, that are established using hydrogen partial pressure and
insitu pH of condensed water.
3.4.2.2 The category of sour service is used to define material and quality control requirements.
3.4.2.3 It is required that the Husky responsible engineer establishes the category of sour service to be used.

Rev. 1
4.0 Line Pipe Design and Specification
4.1 Minimum Diameter
4.1.1 Pipe diameter is determined by velocity and pressure considerations. See appendix A, Equation 3.0.
4.1.1.1 For crude oil and natural gas pipelines, the minimum size generally used is 88.9 mm O.D. For crude oil
systems, a minimum of 88.9 mm flow lines is preferred, because they are less susceptible to wax
plugging problems and are easier to pig. Fuel gas supply pipelines are an exception to this rule; they are
often a minimum of 60.3 mm in diameter.
4.1.2 Two-Phase Oversizing Caution
4.1.2.1 Two-phase systems with vapour phase flow rates less than 2.5 m/s are prone to operate in the "slug
flow" regime, resulting in plant inlet operating problems. Pay special attention to the pipeline turndown
required, due to both gas contract restrictions and natural well flow rate decline.
4.2 Pipe Wall Thickness and Specified Minimum Yield Strength
4.2.1 Influence of Pipe Stresses
4.2.1.1 The required wall thickness for the line pipe is determined by the hoop stress and longitudinal stress
created by the pipeline fluid pressure and temperature.
4.2.2 Large Longitudinal Stresses
4.2.2.1 Buried pipelines (restrained) that are constructed in winter conditions are subjected to longitudinal
compressive stress when the line warms up to operating temperature. This is particularly important for
lines transporting heated fluids (e.g. Line Heated System or Thermal Project). The temperature range
must be taken into account in selecting the pipe wall thickness and grade. (Refer to CSA Standard Z662
design equations for ambient temperature at time of restraint and “T2 = maximum operating
temperature”). This temperature range has a large influence on the design of a heated pipeline
constructed in winter conditions. The following are ways to reduce the impact of this constraint on the
wall thickness:
• Specify a higher specific minimum yield strength (SMYS)
• Reduce the maximum operating temperature if it is conservative on the high side
• Increase the design minimum ambient temperature and consider curtailing pipeline construction
(lower-in and backfill) when the actual ambient temperature is less than the specified temperature
• For short pipelines, pre-stressing of pipe.
• Non linear analysis in combination with limit state design, utilizing special computer program.
4.2.3 Hoop Stress Criteria
4.2.3.1 When longitudinal stress is not the overriding constraint, the minimum required pipe wall thickness is
calculated from the hoop stress formula: See appendix A, Equation 1.0.
4.2.4 Specified Minimum Yield Strength (SMYS)
4.2.4.1 The specified minimum yield strength (SMYS) is the minimum yield stress that the material must be
able to withstand, i.e., continue to exhibit elastic properties, under a tensile test (up to 0.5% tensile

Rev. 1
strain limit for CSA Standard Z245.1 Steel Line Pipe) for the standard to which the material is being
qualified. Thus, “SMYS” is often termed synonymous with “grade”; as in CSA Standard Z245.1 Grade
290 has an SMYS of 290 MPa and all pipe which intends to meet the grade must have an SYMS
greater than 290 MPa.
4.2.4.2 In stress equations where a value of yield strength is required, published SMYS is to be used. Use of
actual yield strength values from material test reports is not allowed. However, the mill can re-certify
pipe based on obtained tensile properties per CSA 8.2.1.1, 8.2.2.4 and Table 8.
4.2.4.3 Appendix C lists the SMYS for commercially available steel line pipe.
4.2.5 Tensile Strength
4.2.5.1 Tensile strength, also referred to as ultimate tensile strength or maximum yield strength, is the stress at
which the material exhibits actual tensile failure. Ultimate tensile strength (breaking strength) should
never be substituted for SMYS.
4.2.6 SMYS and Wall Thickness (WT) Comparison
4.2.6.1 Generally, using the highest SMYS pipe available will tend to result in the lowest cost pipe material
possible being specified. The cost savings resulting from using thinner walled pipe are greater than the
additional cost for the higher SMYS, however, very thin walled pipe (less than 3.18 mm) can be more
expensive to weld and is more prone to brittle failure.
4.2.7 SMYS for Sour Service
4.2.7.1 For sour service pipes, the maximum SMYS usually specified is Grade 359 MPa and in case of larger
pipelines (≥NPS12), Grade 386MPa can be used. It is generally accepted that if higher SMYS pipe
material is used, it could be subject to stress corrosion cracking and thus, premature failure.
4.2.8 SMYS for Sweet Service
4.2.8.1 Conceivably, for sweet systems, Grade 386 MPa or higher SMYS could be specified; but for systems
consistency and surplus pipe handling, Grade 359 MPa is the highest SMYS that should be specified
unless there is a specific economic or design advantage to using a higher SMYS.
4.2.9 SMYS for Exceptional Cases
4.2.9.1 Examples of exceptions may be for a very high pressure water injection line, a high pressure gas line
for a gas cycling scheme, seamless high pressure steam lines used for cyclic injection in heavy oil
applications, or a very long sweet gas or condensate pipeline where reduced wall thickness using
386MPa pipe might represent a large capital saving. Note, these systems are classified as sweet service.
4.2.10 Calculation of WT
4.2.10.1 Table 8.1 of CSA Standard Z245.1 lists the standard commercially available pipe wall thicknesses for
ERW pipe. The pipe wall thickness to be specified for purchasing should be the next commercially
available pipe wall thickness above the calculated minimum. If it happens that the calculated minimum
pipe wall thickness is slightly larger than a commercially available wall thickness, the designer should
consider the system impact (flow capacity, operating characteristics, etc.) and cost trade-offs of
lowering the MOP so that the thinner pipe can be used. On the other hand, if the commercially

Rev. 1
available pipe wall thickness specified for purchase is greater than the wall thickness, the designer
could increase the pipeline MOP and thereby increase the system flow capacity for no extra cost
(except for a slightly higher required pressure test) recognising the limitations due to flange rating.
4.2.11 Minimum WT
4.2.11.1 The designer is cautioned not to arbitrarily rationalise a thinner wall thickness by using a higher SMYS
grade pipe. Increasing the SMYS of a pipe only very marginally increases a pipe’s resistance to
buckling and allowable bending stress. Appendix D, Minimum Recommended Pipe Wall Thickness,
lists the recommended minimum allowable wall thicknesses.
4.2.12 Longitudinal Stresses Due to Thermal Effects of Buried Pipeline
4.2.12.1 A pipeline buried in normal shear strength soil with normal cover (CSA specified minimum buried
depth) is considered to be fully restrained, which means that when the pipe is subjected to an increase
in temperature, the pipe cannot expand along its longitudinal axis due to the soil restraint. In essence,
the pipe cannot physically expand when subjected to a temperature change, and therefore causes
compressive stress in the longitudinal (axial) direction. See appendix A, Equations 5.0, 5.1 and 5.2.
4.2.13 Longitudinal Stresses Due to Thermal Effects of Surface Pipeline
4.2.13.1 An above-ground system, piping networks is flexible (unrestrained), which allows the pipe to move
when subjected to thermal expansion. This movement reduces the axial stress and creates bending
stresses at elbows and fittings; however, the overall stresses are usually less. See appendix A,
Equations 5.0, 5.1 and 5.2. Since above-ground lines are subject to thermal expansion, consideration
should be given to performing stress calculations at key locations and if the temperature range is large
and the piping geometry is complex this may be best done using a commercial stress analysis program
such as Coade Caesar II® , or AutoPIPE®.
4.2.14 Cold Installation Temperature Criteria
4.2.14.1 If the pipeline is planned to be installed in cold weather, the designer should determine the added wall
thickness required to install the pipeline in the winter. The designer may elect to specify the thicker
walled pipe; the possibility of a project delay necessitating winter construction may warrant the extra
pipe costs.
4.2.15 Corrosion Allowance
4.2.15.1 The pipeline designer should take note that a uniform corrosion allowance is not usually added to the
pipeline wall thickness in the same manner as is required in surface plant or refinery piping
(ASME B31.3). The design factors take into account a safety factor for the type of service but not for
corrosion. On sour service pipelines an additional corrosion allowance is usually not stipulated by code
or standard. This is done because it is recognised that the major forms of corrosion are of a localised
nature such as "pitting" and therefore added corrosion allowance for generalized corrosion does not
significantly help in this case. This does not mean that corrosion can be neglected! On the contrary, the
designer is obligated to do more than just specify pipe with a “built-in” corrosion allowance; he/she
must make provisions in the design to control corrosion. For carbon steel materials in sour service these
provisions usually include pigging, inhibitor application and the possibility of line a log corrosion
monitoring because the material and fluid are inherently incompatible from a corrosion standpoint.

Rev. 1
4.2.16 Class Location
4.2.16.1 The location factor (L) as defined in Table 4.1 in CSA Standard Z662 also affects the minimum wall
thickness for the carrier pipe. When determining the class location designation, due consideration shall
be given to the possibility of future development in the area.
4.3 Notch Toughness Properties
4.3.1 CSA Categories:
4.3.1.1 The type of fluid transported, the minimum design temperature of a pipeline and the design operating
stress will dictate the pipe notch toughness properties required for the pipe material.
To determine which category is required, the designer should refer to Table 5.1 in CSA Standard Z662
(note the fine print and all of its Section 5.2.2 as well).
4.3.2 Common Misconceptions
4.3.2.1 Husky requires that all sour service pipelines have to be Category II material. However Category II
notch toughness and H2 S corrosion resistance are not directly related. There is some potential for
saying that a material with good notch toughness may also be better for H 2 S corrosion because it would
be a higher quality steel, and also true that due to the hazardous nature of H2 S the risk of loss is
lessened if the pipe is less likely to fail due to causes other than corrosion, but the codes or regulations
do not require Category II in sour service.
4.3.3 Specified Toughness Test Temperature
4.3.3.1 For Category II systems, the notch toughness test temperatures specified for the below ground pipe
material should be -18°C or lower. For above ground piping, -45°C should be the specified notch
toughness temperature for the required pipe, valves and fittings.
4.3.4 Above-Ground Pipe Toughness Requirement
4.3.4.1 Appendix E, Pipe, Valve and Fittings, outlines the suitable material specifications for above ground
piping components in CSA Category I & II service.
5.0 Materials Selection for Line Pipe
5.1 Steel Pipe: Manufactured Types

• Acceptable types of steel pipe for pipelines are electric resistance welded (ERW), and seamless
(SMLS). Double submerged arc welded (DSAW) and spiral welded steel pipe for pipelines are not
acceptable in either sweet nor sour service.
• Pipe used for pipelines, called “line pipe” is manufactured from flat rolled steel. The flat rolled
steel is slit to appropriate widths and rolled up into coils of “pipe skelp.” The skelp is then
transferred to a pipe mill (sometimes called a rolling mill) where it is unrolled and formed into
pipe.
5.1.1 CSA Standard Z245.1, Electric Resistance Welded (ERW) Pipe
5.1.1.1 ERW pipe is manufactured in accordance with specifications outlined in the CSA Standard Z245.1 for
steel line pipe.

Rev. 1
5.1.1.2 The ribbon of skelp is unrolled and fed into the mill where it is cold formed gradually through a series
of rollers into the pipe shape. The two edges meet, are trimmed and welded together by a high-
frequency induction welder using no filler metal. The next roll of skelp is attached to the end of the
previous and so on. The welded pipe is cut into joints after welding. The welded connections made to
attach the successive coils of skelp are marked for cut out and discarded.
5.1.2 API 5L and API5 LX ERW
5.1.2.1 Alternatively, API 5L and API 5LX ERW pipe can be used in Category I pipelines. However, since
CSA Standard Z245.1 pipe is readily available, API pipe is not usually specified. For sour service
systems pipe meeting CSA Standard Z245.1, sour service requirements per Husky specification
PS-PL-05 Line Pipe Specification – Sour Service.
5.1.3 Seamless Pipe (SMLS)
5.1.3.1 Seamless pipe is used almost exclusively in above ground refinery and plant piping designed to ASME
B31.3, and it follows that “seamed pipe” (ERW, DSAW etc.) is seldom used above ground.
5.1.3.2 Seamless pipe is produced by several methods, all of which are more costly than for seamed pipe.
Seamless pipe is not available in the same wide range of grades and thicknesses as “line pipe”,
consequently it usually is a higher cost option and is generally only used in limited pipeline
applications such as runs of short length on or near plants, above ground in pipeline compressor
stations and areas where the pipeline is being transitioned from “pipeline codes” to “plant codes.”
5.1.3.3 Since above-ground piping generally poses a greater safety hazard, the additional cost of using
seamless pipe is considered warranted. Also, forged butt-weld fittings and flanges, which are usually
required on above ground systems, are more compatible from a wall thickness point of view with
ASTM seamless pipe as compared to CSA Standard Z245.1 ERW pipe.
5.1.3.4 ASTM seamless pipe is specified for above ground application as A106 Grade B for ambient
temperatures -29°C and higher, and A333 Grade 6 for -29°C to -45°C (low temperature service). The
-29°C limit for A106B does not apply to all thickness and diameters (refer to ASME B31.3).
5.1.3.5 For oilfield steam distribution pipelines designed per CSA Standard Z662 Clause 14 – Seamless pipe
per A-106B or Q&T seamless pipe per CSA Standard Z245.1 Grade 359 are used. Husky CTS has
customised specifications for seamless Q&T Grade 359 pipe and hot bends available.
5.1.4 Aluminium Pipe
5.1.4.1 Aluminium pipe has the following advantages: it is acceptable in sour and carbon dioxide service and
in 88.9 mm diameter and less and is available in coils which allows it to be ploughed in very quickly. It
can also be used to transport produced water but confirmation that the aluminum will not be susceptible
to chloride cracking is imperative, therefore, it is cautioned. With that said, the pipe material is higher
in cost than the equivalent steel pipe, and qualified aluminium welders are not as readily available.
Explosion type welding with internal sleeve is also commonly done. Aluminium pipe has been used
most extensively in low-pressure rural gas co-op lines.
5.1.5 Fiberglass Reinforced Pipe (FRP)
5.1.5.1 FRP pipe also has superior corrosion resistance properties as compared to steel. However, FRP pipe
does have pressure limitations and its material cost is greater than the equivalent required steel pipe. In

Rev. 1
addition, the basic joining technique for FRP pipe is a threaded connection which is not as reliable as a
welded connection and when installing FRP pipe the entire trench length may need to be sandpadded.
Because FRP pipeline installations are generally more costly than the equivalent steel pipeline
installations, FRP lines are not too common. However, the industry has used FRP pipe for salt water
disposal service which was considered very corrosive but low pressure operation. (See Husky
Specification PS-PL-01 Fiberglass Line Pipe)
6.0 Line Pipe Length
6.1 Standard Lengths
6.1.1 ERW line pipe is available in single, double and triple random lengths. This designation refers to 6 m,
12 m and 18 m joint lengths respectively. The word “random” means that a particular joint of pipe may
be plus or minus the stipulated length. The allowable minimum, maximum and average length of joints
in an order are listed in CSA Standard Z245.1.
6.2 Preferred Lengths
6.2.1 For most pipeline systems, it is more cost efficient to specify triple random lengths. The field trucking
and welding costs would be about 30% less as compared to using double random length pipe. However,
slightly more caution is required by the field crew when handling triple random lengths so as not to
buckle pipe joints while stringing. This is very rarely a problem.
6.2.2 ASTM seamless pipe comes in 6.1 m and 12.2 m joint lengths.
6.3 Pipe Surplus
6.3.1 It has been found from experience that if a pipeline route has been surveyed and “slack chained”, a pipe
order of the slack chain length plus 3% is adequate. If no slack chainage is available, but only a survey
drawing, one should consider ordering the survey drawing length plus 5% surplus. If pipe must be
ordered from a topographical map routing, one should order the scaled route length from the map plus
12%.
7.0 Pipe Specifications for Crossings
When a pipeline crosses roads or highways and major rivers, higher strength or higher wall thickness
pipe material in these specific locations is sometimes required. Generally for foreign pipeline crossings,
small creek crossings or telephone cable crossings, there is no requirement or need to change the pipe
specification.
7.1 Road and Railroad Crossings
7.1.1 There are two design methods used for road and railroad crossings. One method is to use the line pipe
that is the same specification as the rest of the pipeline and protect this pipe (carrier pipe) with an
additional external pipe called a casing pipe. The second method is to upgrade the strength of the line
pipe (carrier pipe) by increasing the wall thickness and install the road crossing without a casing pipe.
7.1.2 The use of cased crossings is beginning to fall out of favour due to the difficulties in maintaining
cathodic protection through the crossing. Railway companies, however, still usually insist on the cased
style crossing.

Rev. 1
7.2 Casing Pipe Diameter
7.2.1 For cased crossings, the specified casing pipe diameter must be as follows:
• For carrier pipe less than 168.3 mm, the OD of the casing pipe must be at least 50 mm larger than
the OD of the carrier pipe
• For carrier pipe greater than or equal to 168.3 mm, the OD of the casing pipe must be at least
75 mm greater than the OD of the carrier pipe
7.3 Casing Pipe WT
7.3.1 The minimum wall thicknesses required for various casing pipe diameters are shown in CSA Standard
Z662. Since the casing pipe is meant to carry only external loads from soil overburden and vehicular
traffic over the road or railroad, unless the road in question is particularly poor or weak soil, the
minimum wall thickness for the required casing should be specified.
7.4 Casing Pipe SMYS
7.4.1 The SMYS of the casing pipe should be specified as low as possible. Again, due to the nature of the
external loads, high SMYS pipe is not required, therefore, Grade 290 MPa SMYS pipe would be
sufficient in most cases.
7.5 Casing Pipe Length
7.5.1 CSA Standard Z662 gives the minimum length requirements for cased crossings.
7.5.2 Triple random joint lengths should also be specified. Also, when ordering the casing pipe, specify that
the pipe required is casing pipe; most suppliers provide casing pipe that is mill line pipe rejects
(chemistry not quite up to specification, etc.), which is more than suitable for casing. The casing
material is lower cost than CSA Standard Z245.1 ERW pipe.
7.6 Uncased Crossing
7.6.1 If an uncased road or railroad crossing is required, the pipe operating hoop stress level for the line pipe
under the road or rail track must be less than the rest of the line. The CSA Standard Z662 and the
government transportation authorities have minimum requirements for pipe used in uncased crossings.
7.7 Design Factors for Uncased Crossings
7.7.1 The design factors used for uncased crossing pipe are lower than for general and cased crossings. This
may mean a greater wall thickness is required. An alternate solution is to increase the SMYS through
the crossing.
7.8 Minimum WT
7.8.1 The minimum pipe wall thickness required for uncased crossings regardless of SMYS is shown in CSA
Standard Z662.
7.9 Quantity of Pipe for Uncased Crossings
7.9.1 When ordering pipe for uncased crossings, the amount of pipe ordered is usually small as compared to
the main line pipe order. Therefore, it is very important to make sure that a sufficient quantity is

Rev. 1
ordered. It may be very difficult to obtain “off the shelf” extra, and in all likelihood, if a shortage
developed, one would have to case the remainder of the crossings at higher cost. As a general practice,
it is suggested if uncased crossings are going to be used, the amount of pipe ordered should be the
survey width plus 20%. Again, triple random joint lengths are preferred.
7.9.2 If pipe is pulled through bored or drilled crossings consideration should be given to the potential for
coating damage (gouging and abrasion) and whether sacrificial or abrasion resistant coatings are
warranted.
7.10 Marking of Uncased Pipe
7.10.1 One last point that should be noted is that all uncased crossing pipe should be distinctly marked on the
pipe coating with paint bands or some other clear distinguishing marking which would prevent field
mix-ups with the main line pipe (relying on the printed stencilling identifying the pipe is not good
enough). Very often, the uncased pipe is only a few millimetres thicker or exactly the same size with
higher SMYS; to the field crew, the pipe may look all the same to them, and they may install it as such.
7.11 River Crossings
7.11.1 CSA and EUB Requirements
7.11.1.1 Permitting requirements and environmental considerations have influenced the favoured methods for
crossing streams. Significant streams are now predominantly crossed using drilling and boring
methods. Open-cutting is used as a backup method if drilling is unsuccessful or not feasible due to
geotechnical aspects or for small creeks with low flow rates.
7.11.1.2 Pipe that is pulled into drilled crossings should be given special attention in regard to the stresses
imposed by pulling, and bending. The coating systems should be evaluated in terms of scuffing,
abrasion and gouging.
7.11.1.3 The installation of major (wider than 100 m) river crossings tend to be quite costly. A line failure in a
river crossing may be very environmentally detrimental and costly to repair. Therefore, additional
design factor of the pipe may be warranted. The CSA codes and EUB regulations allow the operating
company to install a river crossing with the same design factors as the rest of the pipeline.
7.12 Preference Design Factor
7.12.1 It is recommended that the design factor for river crossings be derated to the same level as uncased
road crossings, and the pipe wall thickness increased accordingly. The main purpose of this increased
wall thickness is to provide additional corrosion allowance as well as extra resistance to buckling and
bending stress, which can result from handling the pipe with weights, and possibly from river erosion
once the line is installed. It should be noted that additional SMYS does not add to corrosion allowance
and adds only marginally to buckling resistance.
7.13 Spare Lines
7.13.1 Pipelines in critical service may warrant the installation of spare lines at the river crossing to minimize
the downtime and the cost of repairing a damaged line. If spare lines are installed, make sure that the
lines are “mothballed” correctly. These spare lines are not usually tied in to the main line but are left
“capped” and available for future use if required.

APPENDIX F, PIPELINE TRANSITION PIECES
The method of dealing with the transition from pipeline pipe (CSA codes) to process facility ASME B31.3 piping is
usually accomplished in one of the following manners:
• Machined SMLS pipe of same SMYS as line pipe
• Machined ERW pipe of same WT as ASME B31.3 piping
• Customised transition
ERW pipe is utilised by using ERW pipe of the same wall thickness as the ASME B31.3 piping and machining
(beveling) the pipeline end to fit. Note this pipe must be the same grade as the pipeline pipe.
Alternately, a custom joint can be machined from thick walled pipe of the same grade as the pipeline pipe or heat-
treated to meet the specific grade requirement.

National Energy Board Pipeline Application
Ester/Court Natural Gas Pipeline Project
Consultation Program Notification
August 2005
Husky Oil Limited (“Husky”) is applying to the National Energy Board (“NEB”) to
construct Ester/Court Natural Gas Pipeline (“Ester/Court Pipeline”). The pipeline
will be approximately 4.3 km of 168.3 mm (6-inch) nominal outside diameter,
polyethylene pipe constructed near the Town of Compeer and across the Alberta
/ Saskatchewan border.
The pipeline will link two new Husky pipelines and risers between LSD 7-1-33-1
W4M (Alberta) and LSD 10-31-32-28 W3M (Saskatchewan). Please refer to the
attached map for details of the Pipeline System and proposed pipeline route.
Husky’s Alberta production is expanding due to additional wells and increased

natural gas production volumes. The purpose of the proposed pipeline is to
deliver natural gas production from the Alberta gathering system to the Husky
Saskatchewan pipeline system.
The Ester/Court Pipeline will be constructed in a new pipeline corridor. The right-
of-way will cross predominately farmland. Depth of cover for the pipeline will be
1.4 m below grade in general locations. The end points for the proposed pipeline
will include pipeline risers, pig launching and receiving barrels and associated
valves and piping.
An Environmental and Socio-Economic Impact Assessment will be completed for

the Ester/Court Pipeline and include an assessment of vegetation, wildlife, soils,
traditional land use, historic resources and cumulative effects.
The pipeline will not cross any watercourses or intermittent creeks. No

designated environmentally sensitive areas, provincial or municipal parks, or
community recreation areas will be affected by the pipeline. An Environmental
Protection Plan will be prepared and followed to mitigate any adverse effects of
the Ester/Court Pipeline.
Project Schedule
Husky anticipates submitting an application to the NEB in September 2005.

Pipeline construction is scheduled to begin in the last quarter of 2005, subject to
regulatory approval. Construction will take approximately 2 months. Pipeline
operation start-up is planned for the first quarter of 2006.
Pipeline Technical Information
The proposed specifications for the Border Expansion pipeline are as follows:
Substance being carried: Sweet Natural Gas

Material/Outside Diameter: Polyethylene, / 168.3 mm (NPS 6)
External Coating None
The pipeline design and construction will be in compliance with all applicable
codes, standards and regulations.
Public Safety
All occupational, health and safety regulations of the Federal, Saskatchewan and
Alberta governments will be followed during the construction and operation of the
Border Expansion. In addition, all employees, contractors and consultants
involved in the project will be required to adhere to Husky’s Health, Safety and
Environmental Policies. Husky will also provide quality assurance and inspection
throughout all phases of construction to ensure safety and environmental
protection.
Emergency Response
Husky has a comprehensive Emergency Response Plan in place for the existing
Pipeline system, which will be updated for the Ester/Court Pipeline. The plan is
intended to ensure that there is quick access to critical information necessary to
effectively respond to an emergency for the protection of the public and
environment.

NOTICE PURSUANT TO SECTION 87(1) OF THE

NATIONAL ENERGY BOARD ACT
TO: Barry Francis Hager and Joyce Hager
being the registered owners(s) (the “Owner”) of the land described as follows (the said “Lands”):
MERIDIAN 4 RANGE 1 TOWNSHIP 33

SECTION 1
THAT PORTION OF THE SOUTH EAST QUARTER
WHICH IS NOT COVERED BY ANY OF THE WATERS OF LAKE NO. 1
AT THE TIME OF SURVEY OF THE SAID LAKE, AS SHOWN ON TOWNSHIP

AND TO: (Encumbrancers on title)
Penn West Petroleum Ltd.

Renaissance Energy Ltd.
Husky Oil Operations Ltd.
Jerome A Hager and Marie Hager
Saskatchewan Power Corporation
being other persons, as far as can be ascertained, interested in the said Lands.
HUSKY OIL LIMITED (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”) hereby gives notice of the following:
1. Description of Lands Required for Pipeline (see Property Sketch attached)
To accommodate the construction and installation of the proposed facilities, namely a pipeline,
through your above described property, the Company requires a Permanent Easement and
Temporary Working Space adjacent to the Permanent Easement. The location of the required
Permanent Easement and Temporary Working Space is shown on the attached Property
Sketch.
2. Details of Compensation Offered
In consideration of granting the aforesaid Permanent Easement to the Company, the Company
shall offer to pay to the Owner a lump sum of -- One Thousand Six Hundred Seventy Four --
DOLLARS ($1,674.00); which sum is calculated in accordance with the provisions of
Paragraph 3 hereof.
In consideration of granting the aforesaid Temporary Working Space to the Company, the
Company shall offer to pay the Owner a lump sum of -- Thirty Three -- DOLLARS ($33.00),
which sum is calculated in accordance with the provisions of Paragraph 3 hereof.
The proposed Permanent Easement Agreement will provide that, as an alternative to the lump
sum payment, the Owner has the option of requiring the compensation to be paid by annual or
periodic payment of equal or different amounts over a period of time.
3. Detailed Statement of Value of Land Required
After having considered the current use of the land and neighbouring lands, any probable
change in use of the land and neighboring land in light of current zoning laws and economic
considerations, recent sales of similar lands in the vicinity of the land and other relevant
factors, the Company has determined that the value of the portion of the land which comprises
the Permanent Easement is $242.82 per hectare ($600.00 per acre) and that the value of the
portion of the land which comprises the Temporary Working Space is $121.41 per hectare
($300.00 per acre). The Company will require only the limited rights as described in the
Easement Agreement and Temporary Working Space Agreement and the Owner will continue
to use the Easement and Temporary Working Space areas subject to the conditions set out in
the Agreements.
4.
Description of Procedure for Approval of Detailed Route of Pipeline
Sections 34 through 39, inclusive, of the National Energy Board Act (the “Act”) establish a
procedure for approval of the detailed route of a pipeline.
Those sections provide that after a pipeline company has submitted to the National Energy
Board (the “Board”) a plan showing the proposed route of a pipeline, the company must serve
on landowners and publish notices which describe the proposed detailed route of the pipeline
and the location of the offices of the Board. Within thirty (30) days of service or last publication
of such a notice, an owner or person who anticipates that his land may be adversely affected
by the proposed detailed route may oppose the detailed route by filing with the Board a written
statement setting forth the nature of his interest in the land and the grounds for his opposition.
Where a written statement of opposition has been filed within the time limited therefore, the
Board must, subject to certain exceptions, forthwith order that a public hearing be conducted
within the area in which the lands to which the written statement relates are situated with
respect to any grounds of opposition set forth in such statement. At such hearing each person
who properly filed a written statement will be allowed to make representations and the Board
may allow any other interested person to make such representations as the Board deems
proper.
Following such hearing the Board may either approve or refuse to approve the plan showing
the proposed route of ~ the pipeline as filed by the pipeline company and in granting any
approval the Board may impose such terms and conditions as it considers proper. The Board
may not give its approval to a plan unless it has taken into account all written statements
properly filed with it and all representations made to it at a public hearing in order to determine
the best possible detailed route of the pipeline and the most appropriate methods and timing of
constructing the pipeline.
In certain circumstances the procedure outlined above will not be applicable. Section
58 and subsection 45(3) of the Act empower the Board to exempt a pipeline company
from certain of the provisions of the Act, including those provisions requiring the filing
with the Board of a plan showing the proposed route of a pipeline. Exemption from this
requirement would result in the above-described procedure for approval of the detailed
route of a pipeline no longer being applicable. Husky intends to apply for such an
exemption in respect of the proposed Esther Gas pipeline expansion which is the
subject of this Easement. Consequently concerns, if any, regarding the routing of the
pipeline and construction procedures should be communicated directly to the Board as
part of the Section 58 approval process.
Reference is made to the sections of the Act referred to above for the complete text of the
provisions relating the procedure for determination and approval of a pipeline route and the
provisions which result in exemption from such procedures, and the foregoing description is
subject to the express provisions thereof.
5. Description of Procedure Available for Negotiation and Arbitration of Compensation Payable
Sections 88 through 103, inclusive, of the Act establish a procedure for negotiation and
arbitration in the event that an owner of lands and a pipeline company are unable to agree on
any matter respecting the amount of compensation payable under the Act for the acquisition of
lands or for damages suffered as a result of the operations of the pipeline company or on any
issue related to such compensation.
Those sections provide, in effect, that if a pipeline company and an owner of lands have not
agreed on any such issue either of them may serve notice of negotiation on the other of them
and on the Minister (being the member of the Federal Cabinet designated to act as the Minster
for the purposes of the Act) requesting that the matter be negotiated. Following service of
such notice the Minister must appoint a negotiator who must meet with the parties and, without
prejudice to any subsequent proceedings, proceed to negotiate a settlement of the matter.
Within sixty days after commencing the negotiation proceedings, the negotiator must report to
the Minister his success or failure and submit a copy of his report to both parties.
If either the owner of the lands or the pipeline company wishes to dispense with the negotiation
proceedings or if the negotiation proceedings have not resulted in settlement of any
compensation matter, either the pipeline company or the owner may serve notice of arbitration
on the other of them and on the Minister requesting that the matter be determined by
arbitration. Forthwith thereafter the Minister must, subject to certain exceptions, refer the
matter to an Arbitration Committee consisting of not less than three members appointed by the
Minister, none of whom will be a member, officer or employee of the Board. The Arbitration
Committee must then fix a suitable time and place for a hearing in order to determine all
compensation matters referred to in the notice and serve notice of the hearing on the parties.
Following such hearing the Arbitration Committee will determine all compensation matters
referred to it and in doing so must consider a number of factors as set out in section 97 of the
Act.
Reference is made to the sections of the Act referred to above for the complete text of the
provisions relating to negotiation and arbitration of compensation matters and the foregoing
description is subject to the express provisions thereof.

This Notice is not an offer and does not obligate either the Owner or the Company to enter into
an Agreement.

In relating physical properties to these variables, it is an over simplification to state that the
performance is entirely dependent on one specific property. In order to compare two resins, it is
important to know more than the mere numbers and their magnitude. It is necessary to understand
what the impact will be on physical properties and ultimately, long term performance due to small
differences between apparently equivalent numbers.
Upon request, the resin manufacturer's published properties can be provided. The properties
are determined in accordance with the requirements of the Canadian Standard Association
(CSA) Z662-03 Standard, that shall be used for design.
Note: Exposure to certain hydrocarbons has a cumulative effect and can reduce the pressure
capability of polyethylene pipe. Continued exposure may also cause a reduction in tensile strength
and an increase in physical dimensions (swelling) due to absorption of hydrocarbons by the pipe
wall. The degree of absorption is a function of pressure, temperature, the nature of the
hydrocarbons, and the polymer structure of the polyethylene. The design criteria should verify the
suitability of polyethylene for liquid hydrocarbon pipelines by consideration of each of these
parameters. The effect on polyethylene pipe of chemical additives to pipeline fluids should also be
considered.

The requirements for polyethylene gas distribution pipelines as stated in Clause 13 of CSA Z662-99.
Caution Note: Design Service Factors are selected on the basis of application or use; considering environment ,
temperatures, hazards involved and life expectancy. When Design (Service) Factors higher than those recommended are
used, the degree of reliability of the piping system may be reduced. The use of Design (Service) Factors, other than those
designated for each service (water, crude oil and natural gas) at the referenced operating temperature, shall be at the
discretion and approval of the field engineer.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS:
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
Polytubes PE-3408 polyethylene piping material possesses a high resistance to attack from a wide
range of chemicals and for all practical purposes; HD-Polyethylene is chemically inert at normal
service temperatures. The fact that HD-Polyethylene is virtually chemical inert at 23°C, allows
Polytubes pipe to be used in many applications where traditional materials would be considered
unsuitable. It can be stated that, at 23°C Polytubes, PE-3408 pipe can be used when exposed to
many different acids, bases and inorganic salts at 100% concentration with out any deteriorating
effects.
Polyethylene does not corrode or rot, become pitted or interact, either chemically or electrically, with
the surrounding soil despite its acidity, alkalinity or moisture content. It does not support the growth
of algae, bacteria or fungi and resists marine biological attack.
Certain chemicals do have an effect on the polyethylene. The chemical attack on polyethylene can
be classified in two ways. ONE is solubility or a swelling phenomena of the polyethylene, that of
which, if the chemical is removed the polyethylene will regain its original properties and shape. The
SECOND is a more severe detrimental attack, where the physical characteristics of the polyethylene
have been changed. Oxidizers are the only group of chemicals that are capable of chemically
degrading Polytubes pipe.
The following oxidizers are considered unsuitable for long term exposure/contact with Polytubes
pipe:
Nitric acid, fuming

Sulphuric acid, fuming (oleum)
Wet chlorine gas
Liquid bromine
Dry gaseous hydrocarbons have no adverse effect on expected service life. Liquid hydrocarbons act
like a plasticizer and can be absorbed to varying degrees in the pipe wall (causing softening) and can
reduce hydrostatic strength, but they do not degrade the material. Upon evaporation of the
hydrocarbon, the pipe will regain its original physical properties. When in continuous contact with
hydrocarbons, the pipe's hydrostatic strength or allowable operating pressure must be derated. The
aggressive nature of the hydrocarbon can be classified as either a strong or weak plasticizer. Shown
below are examples of the different types of plasticizer. If you are handling any of the strong
plasticizer at high concentrations listed below, consult your Polytubes Representative for assistance
in designing your piping system. The weak plasticizers only have minor plasticizing effects and the
derating factors shown in Table I (SF=0.25) can be used.

Plasticizers:
I) STRONG PLASTICIZERS
Aromatic hydrocarbons e. g. benzene and toluene
Phenolics e. g. phenol and resorcinol
Chlorinated hydrocarbons e. g. carbon tetrachloride
Fats and oils e. g. liquid shortening, lube oils, vegetable oils.
(II) WEAK PLASTICIZERS

Lighter hydrocarbons (liquid) e.g. natural and manufactured gasoline
Crude oils
Life Expectancy
The hydrostatic design basis for Polytubes pipe is based on extensive hydrostatic testing data
evaluated by standardized industry methods. Life expectancy is estimated conservatively to be in
excess of 50 years for transporting water at ambient temperature (73.4°F). Internal and external
environmental conditions for each application may alter the expected life or change the
recommended design basis to achieve the same life expectancy.
Joining
In a polyethylene installation, it is usually necessary to join additional lengths of pipe or attach

fittings such as tees, saddles, valves or caps. Such joints may involve different grades and sizes of
PE or different materials altogether.
In all cases, safety and the qualification requirements of the responsible regulatory authority should
prevail. Cleanliness of the components to be joined is absolutely essential to ensure proper joining.
Other considerations when joining PE pipe and fittings include:
• Weather - ambient temperature, wind speed and direction, precipitation

• Machine and tool condition - heating irons, alignment jigs
• Specific material properties - melt, density
• Joining technique
When both the pipe and fittings are made from polyethylene, they may be joined using mechanical
(compression, stab) fittings or, preferably, heat fusion. The heat fusion method of joining is used
for connecting lengths of polyethylene pipe and for attaching saddles, tees, stub-ends and other
fittings. Should the materials be dissimilar, then compression or transition ( bell, flange, pre-
assembled) fittings must be used..
