GB/T 46554-2025 Petroleum and natural industries—Pipeline transportation systems—Test procedures for mechanical connectors
Abstract
This document specifies the test requirements for mechanical connectors, establishes the test procedures for assembly and disassembly tests, service load tests, ultimate load tests, and bending fatigue tests, and describes the leak detection method. This document is applicable to the design verification of mechanical connectors used in pipeline transportation systems in the oil and gas industry, providing objective proof that the connectors meet design requirements and serving as input data for quality certification. This document is not applicable to: a) connectors that rotate during use; b) multi-branch pipes; c) pipelines or pipe lines on platforms; d) flanges; e) connectors used in pipes installed by winding or pulling with J-shaped pipes; f) factory acceptance tests; g) the statistical basis for risk analysis.
