An updated recommended practice, DNVGL-RP-F104 Design and operation of CO2 pipelines, has been published based on the results from the CO2SafeArrest joint industry project between Energy Pipelines CRC and DNV. The project involved two large-scale CO2 crack arrest tests being carried out on 24” pipelines to better understand the safety implications of CO2 releases. The testing was performed at the DNV Research and Development facility in UK.
