API C2 / SC 17 SUBCOMMITTEE ON SUBSEA PRODUCTION SYSTEMS
API 17E SPECIFICATION for SUBSEA UMBILICALS REVISION TASK GROUP STATUS
JANUARY 19, 2012 API 17E - SUBSEA UMBILICALS WINTER MEETING STATUS REPORT API 17E - SUBSEA UMBILICALS WINTER MEETING STATUS REPORT
1. INTRODUCTION
The Subsea Umbilical Specification was adopted back as the Fourth Edition of API 17E on October 2010 with an effective date of April 1, 2011. The API TG, from the start, intended to begin the revision process soon after publication. On April 19, 2011 an SRRR form was submitted to API with a planned completion date of May 16, 2012.
2. STATUS
Reviewed API clarification matrix from the DIS/FDIS where we confirmed it would be looked at in the next Revision has been made. Final resolution of agreed upon comments are in process.
The Umbilical Manufacturers Federation (UMF) has submitted comments for TG review and action. The steel tube suppliers, the fiber optic cable suppliers and the electric cable suppliers have commented to the existing specification and any clarifications are being reviewed. Note, most have confirmed no or very little clarification.
We started out like a ball of fire and then things went to hell in a hand basket. We are, however, back in the game.
