This collaborative approach enhances the standard's functionality, allowing it to work in tandem with national regulations, thus fostering consistency and compliance within various jurisdictions. While the EN 12583:2014 standard aims to provide foundational guidance, it recognizes that national legislation may impose more stringent requirements. In such cases, the standard establishes that national regulations take precedence, as outlined in CEN/TR 13737. This particular technical report offers additional clarity on applicable legislation, highlights more restrictive national demands, and ensures a point of contact for the most current information, thus aiding compliance for users navigating the regulatory landscape. Additionally, the standard explicitly delineates its limitations, clarifying that it does not apply to offshore gas compressor stations, stations for compressed natural gas filling, installations downstream of custody transfer points, or the design and construction of driver packages. This clear boundary enhances user understanding and application while directing them to relevant standards where necessary. In conclusion, EN 12583:2014 stands as a pivotal regulatory document that addresses the essential functional requirements for gas compressor stations within the broader gas infrastructure context. Its strengths lie in its comprehensive focus on safety, environmental issues, and the clear delineation of its applicability, making it highly relevant for stakeholders involved in the gas sector.
