European foreword

This document (prEN 12583:2021) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 234 “Gas

Infrastructure”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 12583:2014.

In comparison with the previous edition, the following technical modifications have been made:

— Addition of requirements for hydrogen readiness
— Addition of Methane Emissions Management
— Addition of NOx and CO determination

— Addition of references to new European Standards, for example the merging of EN 16348 and

EN 15399 (WI 00234093)
— Updated normative references
— Updated with practical experience from the application of the previous edition
— Clarification of technical wording
A detailed overview of all changes is given in Annex G.

This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the

European Free Trade Association.

There is a complete suite of functional standards prepared by CEN/TC 234 “Gas infrastructure” to cover

all parts of the gas infrastructure from the input of gas into the on-shore transmission network up to the

inlet connection of gas appliances, including transmission, distribution, storage, compression, pressure

regulation and metering, installation, injection of non-conventional gases, gas quality issues and others.

In preparing this document a basic understanding of gas infrastructure by the user has been assumed.

The gas infrastructure is complex and the importance on safety of its construction and use has led to the

development of very detailed codes of practice and operating manuals in the member countries. These

detailed statements embrace recognized standards of gas engineering and the specific requirements

imposed by the legal structures of the member countries.

Directive 2009/73/EC concerning common rules for the internal market in natural gas and the related

Regulation (EC) No 715/2009 on conditions for access to the natural gas transmission networks also

aim at technical safety (security) including technical reliability of the European gas system. These

aspects are also in the scope of CEN/TC 234 standardization. In this respect CEN/TC 234 evaluated the

indicated EU legislation and amended this document accordingly, where required and appropriate.

In this edition of EN 12583 environmental aspects relevant to the design, construction and testing,

operation and maintenance, decommissioning and disposal of compressor stations in the scope of this

document are covered in accordance with CEN Guide 4 and CEN/TR 16388.

Directive 2009/28/EC on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources and amending

and subsequently repealing Directives 2001/77/EC and 2003/30/EC, in Article 3 and 5 are with regard

to the calculation of the share of energy from renewable sources and the contribution of hydrogen

originating from renewable sources in the total fuel mix. In this respect CEN/TC 234 evaluated the

indicated EU legislation and amended this document.

1 Scope

This document describes the specific functional requirements for the design, construction, operation,

maintenance and disposal activities for safe and secure gas compressor stations.

This document applies to new gas compressor stations with a Maximum Operating Pressure (MOP)

over 16 bar and with a total shaft power over 1 MW. For existing compressor stations, this document

applies to new compressor units. Where changes/modifications to existing installations or gas

composition take place, due account may be taken of the requirements of this document.

This document does not apply to gas compressor stations operating prior to the publication of this

document.
The purpose of this document is intended to:
— ensure the health and safety of the public and all site personnel,
— to cover environmental issues,
— to avoid incidental damage to nearby property, and

— to open the gas infrastructure to accommodate renewable gases, including a possible design for

100 % hydrogen.

This document specifies common basic principles for the gas infrastructure. Users of this document are

expected to be aware that more detailed national standards and/or codes of practice can exist in the

CEN member countries.

This document is intended to be applied in association with these national standards and/or codes of

practice setting out the above-mentioned basic principles.

In the event of conflicts in terms of more restrictive requirements in national legislation/regulation

with the requirements of this document, the national legislation/regulation takes precedence as

illustrated in CEN/TR 13737 (all parts). CEN/TR 13737 (all parts) gives:
— clarification of all legislations/regulations applicable in a member state;
— if appropriate, more restrictive national requirements;
— a national contact point for the latest information.
This document does not apply to:
— off-shore gas compressor stations;
— gas compressor stations for compressed gas filling-stations;
— customer installations downstream of the point of custody transfer;
— design and construction of driver packages (see Annex C);
