Overview

The international standard oSIST prEN ISO 13628-14:2012 is part of the ISO 13628 series addressing the design and operation of subsea production systems in the petroleum and natural gas industries. Titled "Subsea High Integrity Pressure Protection Systems (HIPPS)", this standard focuses on the application of HIPPS technology specifically for subsea environments. Developed collaboratively by ISO/TC 67 and CEN/TC 12, it integrates existing requirements from ISO 10418, IEC 61508, and IEC 61511, tailoring them to the unique conditions and challenges of subsea operations.

HIPPS are critical autonomous safety systems designed to detect and prevent overpressure scenarios by isolating downstream facilities promptly, thereby enhancing operational safety and protecting subsea infrastructure.

Key Topics

  • Design basis and general requirements
    This includes the fundamental principles around pressure protection, flowline rupture considerations, production characteristics, and hazard/risk analysis specific to subsea contexts.

  • Safety Integrity Level (SIL) determination and specification
    The standard outlines methodologies for selecting SIL and developing Safety Requirement Specifications (SRS) that meet the rigorous reliability demands of subsea systems.

  • Components and system architecture
    Detailed guidance on HIPPS components such as pressure sensors, logic solvers, shutdown valves, and ancillary devices including communication and monitoring subsystems.

  • Materials and equipment
    Specifications for final element equipment, control systems, welding processes, external coatings, and materials class ratings to withstand harsh subsea conditions.

  • Quality assurance and validation
    Procedures to ensure quality control during manufacturing, marking, and testing phases, including validation protocols for closure devices, sensors, logic solvers, and control systems.

  • Installation and commissioning
    Best practices for planning, installing, and commissioning HIPPS to guarantee functional integrity from deployment through operation.

Applications

PrEN ISO 13628-14 serves a crucial role in subsea production systems across the petroleum and natural gas sectors, particularly where reliable pressure protection is essential for safety and environmental protection. Typical applications include:

  • Subsea oil and gas production facilities requiring autonomous pressure isolation mechanisms to prevent catastrophic failures.

  • Offshore platforms and subsea manifolds that integrate HIPPS to manage downstream pressure risks and maintain system integrity.

  • Subsea pipeline networks where HIPPS can mitigate risks associated with flowline ruptures or sudden pressure surges.

  • Safety instrumented systems (SIS) design for topside and underwater installations, ensuring compliance with industry safety regulations.

The standard enables operators and equipment manufacturers to implement robust HIPPS solutions consistent with international safety and quality expectations, thereby improving safety outcomes and minimizing downtime in challenging subsea environments.

Related Standards

PrEN ISO 13628-14 complements and builds upon several key international standards central to pressure protection and safety systems in the oil and gas industry:

  • ISO 10418 - Provides requirements for offshore production facilities including safety instrumented systems.

  • IEC 61508 - Covers functional safety of electrical/electronic/programmable electronic safety-related systems applicable to HIPPS design.

  • IEC 61511 - Specifies safety requirements for process industry safety instrumented systems, including subsea applications.

  • Other parts of the ISO 13628 series-particularly those dealing with subsea equipment such as flexible pipes (Parts 2 and 11), umbilicals (Part 5), production control systems (Part 6), and subsea structures (Part 15)-offer complementary technical guidance essential for integrated subsea system design.

By referencing these, oSIST prEN ISO 13628-14:2012 ensures cohesive alignment with global safety practices while addressing specialized technical challenges inherent to subsea HIPPS deployment.

Introduction
The part of International Standard ISO 13628 has been prepared to provide general recommendations and
overall guidance for the designa and operation of remotely operated tools comprising ROT and ROV tooling,
used on subsea production systems for the petroleum and natural gas indsutries worldwide.
Specific design requirements are used where a standard design or operating principle has been adopted in
the industry for a period of time. Requirements valid for certain geographic areas or environmental conditions,
are included where applicable.
The functional recommendations for the tooling systems and interfaces on the subsea production system
allow alternative solutions to suite field specific requirements. The intention is to facilitate and complement the
decision process rather than replace individual engineering judgement and, where requirements are non-
mandatory, to provide positive guidance for hte selection of an optimum solution.

Part 14:
Subsea high integrity pressure protection systems (HIPPS)
1 Scope
This part of the International Standard ISO 13628 series addresses the requirements for the use of high integrity
pressure protection systems (HIPPS) for subsea applications. ISO 10418, IEC 61508, and IEC 61511 specify
the requirements for onshore, topsides, and subsea safety instrumented systems (SIS’s) and are applicable to
HIPPS, which are designed to autonomously isolate downstream facilities from overpressure situations. This
International Standard integrates these requirements to address the specific needs of subsea production. These
requirements cover the HIPPS pressure sensors, logic solver, shutdown valves, and ancillary devices including
testing, communications, and monitoring subsystems.

4 General requirements
4.1 Principle
This clause covers system elements that shall be considered when designing a HIPPS. HIPPS is a SIS used
to protect downstream facilities and personnel, and prevent environmental release by containing high-
pressure excursions.
The design and performance of the HIPPS, including all lifecycle activities, should be based on IEC 61511.
Hazard and risk assessments shall be conducted to determine requirements for risk reductions, allocate
safety integrity level (SIL) of the HIPPS, and demonstrate that the risk of overpressure has been adequately
mitigated. Appropriate regulatory agencies should be consulted for additional design and operating
requirements.
A typical HIPPS is shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1 — Typical Subsea Production HIPPS Valve Diagram

4.1.1 Pressure Source
The overpressure to be mitigated by the HIPPS could originate from a number of sources. Examples include
but are not limited to high reservoir pressures, subsea pumps, and connection to higher pressure pipeline or
any combination thereof.
The source could be gas, liquid, or multiphase fluid, which have different system response requirements. The
flow composition may change during the production life and may be dependent on topography. All of these
aspects, and any uncertainties associated with them, need to be considered as part of a full HIPPS analysis.
Before additional wells are tied into an existing system or any other change is made that could affect fluid
properties, a new flow analysis should be conducted to ensure that the system is designed to cover the new
configuration.
4.1.2 HIPPS
SIS, defined by this document, provides pressure protection to downstream components.
4.1.3 Subsea fortified zone
A fortified section may be located downstream of the HIPPS isolation valves to allow time to respond to the
system closure determined by the pressure transient calculations. The response time to system closure will be
dependent on the nature of the flow for the specific system and would include consideration of the gas-oil-ratio
(GOR).
The pressure rating of the fortified section will be project-specific and will range from the maximum allowable
operating pressure (MAOP) of the flowline/pipeline, to the same as the full rating of the pressure source (e.g.
subsea tree).
ISO/DIS 13628-14
The length of the “fortified” section should be determined based on flow analysis. The use of alternative flow
assurance methods (i.e. chemicals) should not be considered when determining the length of the fortified
section. It is conceivable that this section may not be required, but this shall be proven based on flow analysis.
4.1.4. Unfortified zone (flowline)
The unfortified zone is downstream of the fortified zone and upstream of the host zone. The location of the
unfortified zone shall be determined by the hydraulic analysis and be dependent on the impact of any eventual
leakage risks to be mitigated. The hydraulic analysis should include all potential system transients
(multiphase/slug flow, etc.). The unfortified zone shall be located to minimize risk of injury to people and
damage to infrastructure and the environment. Design should also take into account the need for system
testing.
The unfortified zone would be proven to function by hydraulic analysis, design, and testing as appropriate.
4.1.5 Host fortified zone
The near-platform riser section should be designed such that release of hydrocarbon or hazardous materials
occurs away from the facility to protect personnel. Near-platform riser section refers to a region, which if
breached by high-pressure excursions, could result in damage to the facility or threat to life.
4.1.6 Topsides
A process safety valve (PSV) can be used to relieve build up of pressure due to valve leakage. The PSV
would be l ocated between the flowline isolation valve (FIV) and t he boarding shutdown valve (BSDV).
Consideration needs to be given to safe venting of fluid, particularly during a platform shutdown or unmanned
situation.
4.2 Production characteristics
Design of all product-containing systems shall consider the fluid and gas properties being transported and
select materials and welding processes fully compatible with planned products.
For multiphase production systems, the full range of GOR, water production rates, sand, carbon dioxide,
hydrogen sulfide, injected chemicals, and other products shall be fully investigated during analysis and design.
4.3 Flowline rupture considerations
Design of the flowline downstream of a HIPPS shall consider the possibility of failure of the HIPPS to correctly
function. The design should determine the likely consequences and design mitigations to minimize each
consequence. Some of the key consequences of failure of the HIPPS and possible mitigations to consider
include the following.
− Uncontrolled—In this case, the flowline ruptures and inventory is released to the environment. The system
shall be arranged so that any pipeline burst occurs within the protective segment. Protection of human life is
the highest priority. An environmental remediation plan should be in place.
− Controlled but Uncontained—In this case, there is a pressure-relieving mechanism which minimizes the
quantity of product released. An environmental remediation plan should be in place.
− Controlled and Contained—In this case, there is a pressure-relieving mechanism (preferably self-resetting)
which contains the release. The capacity of the containment system shall be defined.
4.4 Process hazard and risk analysis
The decision to utilize a HIPPS shall be based on a qualitative and quantitative risk analysis (QRA) carried out
in accordance with industry standards. Risk analysis requires determining the frequency of the event
8 © ISO 2011 – All rights reserved

ISO/DIS 13628-14
(overpressure) and the ability of safeguards (HIPPS, etc.) to reduce the consequences, such that the
likelihood of the event becomes tolerable.
A qualitative risk analysis such as process hazard analysis shall be conducted using a defined methodology.
The process hazard is typically overpressure and the subsequent failure of downstream equipment, potentially
resulting in a loss of hydrocarbon containment. The risk is the frequency, or possibility of, overpressuring the
equipment and the resulting consequences of equipment failure.
Quantitative analysis shall be performed [e.g. layer of protection analysis (LOPA)] as defined in IEC 61511.
Risk thresholds shall be those mandated by the regulatory agency or the owner whichever is the most
stringent.
4.5 Selection and determination of SIL
SIL is a representation of the required safety unavailability [average probability of failure on demand (PFD)] of
a safety instrumented function (SIF). The SIL is expressed as a Level 1 through Level 4, which corresponds
with Table 1.
Table 1—SILs
Availability Risk Reduction
SIL PFD
(1-PFD) Factor
SIL 1 0,1 to 0,01 0,90to 0,99 10 to 100
SIL 2 0,01 to 0,001 0,99 to 0,999 100 to 1 000
SIL 3 0,001 to 0,0001 0,999 to 0,9999 1 000 to 10 000
a
SIL 4 0,0001 to 0,00001 0,9999 to 0,99999 10 000 to 100 000
a Not applicable in the process industry.
SILs are determined, either in a pr escriptive manner where a pr eselected SIL may be us ed when the
application meets the required criteria, or a quantitative manner where the required SIL is calculated based on
the risk thresholds, initiating frequencies, and other layers of protection to determine the required SIL of the
HIPPS.
Determination of the HIPPS SIL should consider additional safeguards that are installed:
− pressure switch high (PSH) at facility, upstream of BSDV;
− PSH at each individual pressure source, upstream of HIPPS;
− PSV at facility upstream of the BSDV sized for either leakage rate (partial protection) or full flow rate;
− reinforced section at facility riser.
SIL analysis is primarily conducted for safety; however, additional consideration may be for environmental or
economic impacts. In this case the consideration with the highest SIL requirement may be used as the design
basis.
4.6 Safety requirement specification (SRS)
4.6.1 General
ISO/DIS 13628-14
The SRS is the controlling document for design, validation, and validation of the HIPPS in accordance with the
project requirements and specifications and the basis for HIPPS performance monitoring and followup during
the operating lifetime. The safety requirements specification shall meet the requirements of IEC 61511.
The SRS shall be kept current through management of change (MOC) process from concept development
until the HIPPS is decommissioned.
The SRS shall include the following information or make references to:
a) process description (which includes pressure ratings for all flowline segments) and summary of the
documented hazard scenarios generated from the hazard analysis process;
b) descriptions of functions performed by the SIF (in relationship to the associated hazard scenario) stating the
functional relationship between process inputs and outputs including logic, mathematical functions, and any
required permissives;
c) SIL and PFD for each SIF;
d) HIPPS process measurements together with their normal operating ranges and applicable trip set point
tolerance;
e) safe state of the process for each identified SIF, the sources of demand, and the demand rate;

m) interface to other safety and process control systems;
n) requirements for proof testing;
o) required testing frequencies, PFD, and mean time to failure spurious (MTTF spurious); and

4.6.2 HIPPS SIS
The HIPPS SIS shall be an autonomous safety system with a local logic system controlling HIPPS operation
and shall include the following elements:
a) multiple independent pressure sensing devices responding to the pipeline pressure,
b) high integrity logic processing subsystem,
c) redundant barrier isolation valves (final element),
d) HIPPS system reset to prevent automatic reopening of the HIPPS valves after a trip, and
e) communications and additional equipment required for monitoring and testing the system.
