Oil & Gas Pipeline Systems Code Adoption Document (CAD) 2024
TSSA invites you to provide feedback on its publication of code adoption document (CAD) amendments for Oil & Gas Pipeline Systems. The Oil & Gas Pipeline CAD is adopted by reference in O. Reg 210/01. The CAD adopts a series of national safety codes into regulation. This CAD was last updated and published on December 8, 2020 (Ref No. FS-253-20).
The opportunity to provide feedback will be open until July 3, 2024. Approximately one month after that, the CAD will be published and will be in effect within 60-days of publication.
National Codes
TSSA is moving in a direction to harmonize its code requirements with other jurisdictions. This means less Ontario specific requirements. The following outlines the various national codes adopted by the CAD:
CSA Z662 (2023 Edition) – Oil and Gas Pipeline Systems published by the Canadian Standards Association group (CSA);
CSA Z246.1 (2021 Edition) – Security Management for Petroleum and Natural Gas Industry System;
CSA Z247 (2015 Edition, reaffirmed in 2020) – Damage Prevention for the Protection of Underground Infrastructure published by the Canadian Standards Association group (CSA);
Summary of Key Changes
The summary below highlights the notable changes from the last update of the Oil & Gas Pipeline Systems CAD in 2020:
Overview of Key Changes
The scope of CSA Z662-23 now applies to hydrogen and hydrogen blends;
Z662-23 permits pressure design in accordance with Annex C (Limit states design of onshore pipelines);
Z662-23 adds content to deal with cross-bore mitigation;
Z662-23 adds new requirements for coated pipe in extended storage;
Z662-23 introduces new requirements for induction and cold bends; and
Z246.1-21 has been updated to include new provisions related to cybersecurity.
A full list of changes from previous editions for CSA codes can be found on CSA Group's website Under the “Preface/Scope” section.
