Proposed Wall Thicknesses (where ID= Internal Diameter and WT= Wall Thickness)

  • MECS to GPRT, 610mm ID, WT – 30.2mm to 40.5mm depending on water depth,Steel weight = 796,537tonnes
  • MECS to OGCS, 530mm ID, WT – 28.7mm to 33.4mm depending on water depth,Steel weight = 197,455tonnes
  • OGCS to GPRT, 579mm ID, WT – 31.1mm to 38.4mm depending on water depth,Steel weight = 537,803tonnes

Note: The pipeline will be fabricated from DSAW linepipe with a material of DNV 485 grade carbon steel (equivalent to API X70), fabricated to the requirements of DNV. The wall thickness design is performed in accordance with DNV-OS-F101.
