Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
In other circumstances, particularly when there is an urgent market requirement for such documents, a
technical committee may decide to publish other types of normative document:
— an ISO Publicly Available Specification (ISO/PAS) represents an agreement between technical experts in
an ISO working group and is accepted for publication if it is approved by more than 50 % of the members
of the parent committee casting a vote;
— an ISO Technical Specification (ISO/TS) represents an agreement between the members of a technical
committee and is accepted for publication if it is approved by 2/3 of the members of the committee
casting a vote.
An ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is reviewed after three years in order to decide whether it will be confirmed for a
further three years, revised to become an International Standard, or withdrawn. If the ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is
confirmed, it is reviewed again after a further three years, at which time it must either be transformed into an
International Standard or be withdrawn.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO/TS 12747 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 67, Materials, equipment and offshore
structures for petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries, Subcommittee SC 2, Pipeline
transportation systems.

Introduction
Within ISO/TC 67/SC 2 there has been a series of discussions concerning both the needs and level of
prescription required to address pipeline life extension issues. These have highlighted that
⎯ operators are applying differing approaches, which leads to inefficient use of both operator and authority
resources;
⎯ the assessment and upgrading of existing facilities have been based on probabilistic or reliability-based
methods;
⎯ the level of detail delivered varies.
The purpose of this Technical Specification is to address the above concerns by providing a consistent
approach to pipeline life extension assessment that can be applied by operators (or parties acting on their
behalf) across the industry.
This Technical Specification is concerned with the proof of technical integrity of the pipeline system for the
justification of extended operation. Integrity management is not covered in detail. However, the interface
between a PIMS and the life extension process is considered because
⎯ a PIMS, where present, forms an integral part of the integrity assessment of the pipeline system;
⎯ a PIMS of some form is required for operation in extended life.
Factors affecting the future operability of the system but not the technical integrity, such as the loss of a
control umbilical, are flagged as requiring assessment but are not addressed in full in this Technical
Specification.
Whilst this Technical Specification is aimed primarily at the pipeline operators, it can also be of interest to
other stakeholders such as
⎯ regulators approving the life extension application;
⎯ members of the public affected by the life extension application, such as landowners and developers.
In light of this, an overview of the life extension process and the key principles involved is given in Clause 5.
The remainder of the document is intended to provide detailed guidance to those performing the life extension
assessments.
All guidance is provided for use in conjunction with sound engineering practice and judgment. This Technical
Specification is not intended for use as a design code.

5 Life extension overview
5.1 General
The design life of a pipeline is derived to prevent failure during operation due to time-dependent degradation
mechanisms such as corrosion and fatigue. However, the expiry of the design life does not automatically
mean that the pipeline system is not fit-for-purpose because
⎯ corrosion rates determined during the design process could have been conservative and/or corrosion
defects could have been repaired;
⎯ the anticipated operational fatigue damage could have been overestimated.
Extended operation beyond the pipeline design life can be desirable when recoverable oil and gas remain, or
where additional operational assets are tied (or will be tied) into the pipeline system.
NOTE There are alternatives to pipeline life extension, such as installing a replacement pipeline. Therefore, a
business case is required to determine the most suitable option by comparing the cost of the mitigation necessary to
achieve the desired life extension with the cost of a new pipeline.

ISO/TS 12747:2011(E)
5.2 Assessment process
If the intention is to operate a pipeline system beyond its specified design life, a life extension assessment
shall be performed. The aim of this assessment is to demonstrate that by extending the life of the pipeline
system, the operator is not exposing society to unacceptable risk.
Figure 2 illustrates the pipeline system life extension assessment process. The shaded boxes highlight the
distinct stages of the assessment and cross-references to the clause of this Technical Specification dealing
with a particular stage are provided.
The process begins with a requirement for pipeline extension (item 1) and an assessment of the current
integrity of the pipeline system (item 2). The life extension needs should then be defined (item 3), prior to
commencement of the life extension assessment (item 4).
The life extension assessment shall consider conditions found during the normal operational life that were not
considered in the design. Examples are time-dependent cracking mechanisms (e.g. SCC) and manufacturing
flaws that can grow under the effect of cyclic loading. The requirements of the life extension assessment are
discussed in more detail in 5.3.
Once an acceptable life extension has been determined, the assessment process shall be fully documented
(item 5). If life extension is not possible (or if a replacement pipeline is the most economical solution), the
pipeline should be decommissioned at the end of the design life as originally planned.
5.3 Assessment requirements
The life extension process illustrated in Figure 2 involves an assessment of the current pipeline system
integrity and an assessment to determine the suitability of the pipeline system for life extension.
The assessment of the current integrity (item 2) shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
⎯ review of the pipeline system operational history;
⎯ detailed assessment of the current technical integrity of the pipeline system.
The life extension assessment (item 4) shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
a) risk assessment for extended operation;
b) review of the pipeline system design, including a gap analysis to identify the additional requirements of
the current design codes;
c) assessment of the remnant life of the system, including the following:
⎯ corrosion assessment, accounting for both accumulated and future corrosion in combination with a
defect assessment;
⎯ fatigue assessment, accounting for both accumulated and future fatigue damage;
⎯ coating breakdown and CP system degradation assessment;
⎯ identification and assessment of any other time-dependent degradation mechanism active in the
pipeline;

d) revision or introduction of the PIMS for the extended operating period, including update of the anomaly
limits;
e) identification of any tenure issue (e.g. expiry of permit to occupy land) or statutory requirements (e.g.
pipeline license renewal), including a gap analysis to identify any additional regulatory requirements
introduced during the pipeline design life;
f) review of the adequacy of the safety and operating systems;
g) review of the adequacy of the operating and maintenance, emergency response and safety and
environmental procedures.
Additional studies shall be performed as required, in order to determine the need for remedial measures to
mitigate the threats to the pipeline system anticipated during the extended operational period.
5.4 Limitations on life extension
The allowable life extension is governed by the assessed remnant life of the pipeline system, as illustrated in
Figure 3.
Figure 3 — Life extension and remnant life
If the required life of the pipeline system exceeds the remnant life, the remnant life assessment may be
repeated considering the implementation of remedial measures, such as
⎯ replacement of pipeline components;
⎯ reassessment of anomaly limits and rectification of any anomalies;
⎯ derating of the pipeline system.
Alternatively, it is possible to perform the life extension in stages. This is illustrated by the following examples.
EXAMPLE 1 A life extension of 20 years is required for a pipeline system, following the tie-in of a new asset, but the
remnant life of the pipeline system is only 5 years due to excessive riser corrosion. In this case, an initial 5-year life
extension can be made, followed by a further extension of 15 years upon replacement of the riser at the end of its remnant
life.

ISO/TS 12747:2011(E)
EXAMPLE 2 A life extension of 20 years is required for a pipeline system, but due to the predicted corrosion rates, a
reduction in MAOP will be required in 2 years. In a fashion similar to Example 1 above, an initial 2-year life extension can
be made, with a further extension of 18 years subject to favourable results from an ILI run. If the ILI run confirmed the
predicted corrosion rate, reduction in MAOP or rectification of the unacceptable defects would still
