American Petroleum Institute codes and standards for compressors are industry guidelines and recommendations developed by the API to ensure the safe and efficient operation of compressors used in the oil and gas industry. These standards cover a wide range of topics, including design, construction, installation, inspection, maintenance, and operation of compressors.
API Standard 617: Axial and Centrifugal Compressors
This standard covers the design, manufacture, and testing of axial and centrifugal compressors. It provides guidelines for various types of compressors, including integrally geared compressors and single-shaft compressors.
API Standard 618: Reciprocating Compressors
API 618 deals with the design and operation of reciprocating compressors. It covers both lubricated and non-lubricated compressors used in a wide range of applications, including gas transmission, refinery processes, and petrochemical plants.
API Standard 619: Rotary-Type Positive Displacement Compressors
This standard focuses on rotary-type positive displacement compressors, such as rotary screw compressors and rotary vane compressors. It provides guidelines for design, materials, performance testing, and operation.
API Standard 672: Packaged, Integrally Geared Centrifugal Air Compressors for Petroleum, Chemical, and Gas Industry Services
API 672 specifically addresses packaged, integrally geared centrifugal air compressors used in various industrial services. It includes guidelines for design, materials, fabrication, inspection, testing, and preparation for shipment.
API Standard 688: Reciprocating Compressors for Oil and Gas Production Services
API 688 focuses on reciprocating compressors used in oil and gas production services. It covers design, materials, fabrication, inspection, testing, and preparation for shipment of these compressors.
API Recommended Practice 11P: Recommended Practice for Design and Operation of Oilfield Compressors
API 11P provides guidance on the design and operation of compressors used in oilfield applications, including gas gathering and transmission systems.
API Recommended Practice 11PSS: Recommended Practice for Specification for Oilfield and Gas Industry Process Compressors
This recommended practice outlines the specifications for process compressors used in the oil and gas industry, covering various types of compressors and their applications.
API Recommended Practice 618: Reciprocating Compressors for General Refinery Services
API 618, in addition to the standard mentioned above, also offers recommendations specifically for reciprocating compressors used in general refinery services.
API Recommended Practice 619: Rotary-Type Positive Displacement Compressors for General Refinery Services
Similar to API 618, API 619 provides recommendations for rotary-type positive displacement compressors used in general refinery services.
