ISO 24202-2023 PDF

Full title and description

ISO 24202:2023 — Oil and gas industries including lower carbon energy — Bulk material for offshore projects — Monorail beam and padeye. This International Standard specifies shapes, dimensions, material and design requirements, testing and inspection criteria for monorail beams and padeyes used in topside systems for fixed or floating offshore projects.

Abstract

This standard provides uniform requirements for the design, fabrication, marking, testing and inspection of monorail beams and padeyes intended for mechanical handling in offshore facilities. It covers design loads, deflection limits, material grades and design temperatures, strength and fatigue assessments, dimensional specifications, load testing and sampling/inspection procedures, plus normative annexes for material and shackle data and informative annexes for quality control and test methods.

Scope

Applies to monorail beams and padeyes used on topside systems of fixed or floating offshore oil, gas and lower-carbon energy projects. The standard specifies standard shapes and dimensions, material requirements and mechanical and fatigue strength checks, fabrication and marking requirements, load test criteria, sampling and inspection rules, and annexes with material requirements and test details. It is intended for use by designers, fabricators and project teams responsible for mechanical handling components in offshore installations.

Key topics and requirements

• Standard shapes and dimensional specifications for monorail beams and padeyes.
• Design loads, load combinations and deflection limits for safe operation.
• Material grades, design temperature considerations and required material data.
• Strength and fatigue assessment procedures and acceptance criteria.
• Fabrication, welding, painting, marking and surface treatment requirements.
• Arrangement and interfaces for installation of hoists and trolleys, including curved beam provisions.
• Load testing requirements (type and sampling tests) and test-result evaluation.
• Inspection, sampling plans and quality control guidance (normative and informative annexes covering material requirements, shackle data, QC plans and test methods).

Typical use and users

Used by offshore structural and mechanical engineers, project design teams, fabrication shops, inspection and quality assurance personnel, procurement/specification writers, classification societies and owners/operators of offshore installations. It supports component selection, procurement specifications, fabrication control, inspection plans and acceptance testing during construction and installation phases of offshore projects.

Related standards

Related documents include other ISO/TC 67 publications and offshore-structure standards (for example the ISO 19901 series for offshore structures) and national/adopted versions such as BS ISO 24202:2023. Additional related ISO deliverables addressing bulk materials and offshore equipment scheduling may be published by ISO/TC 67 (for example subsequent standards in the same bulk-materials series).
