FOREWORD
This standard has been developed by the NORSOK standardisation work group for the
widest possible national and international application.
For the purpose of assisting those using this document the following information is given:
The coding system in this standard is based on a functional breakdown of systems into
subsystems and units. This is due to the following main objectives:
All annexes are normative except annex I, Application Examples, which is informative.
2.
SCOPE
This coding system has been developed for tag coding and technical document coding by
breakdown of an installation into functions.
In addition identification of bulk components/components have been established with a
possible future relation to a new article coding system.

PROJECT CODING
The project identification/number is standardised to a maximum of six alphanumeric
characters.
The project number will be used as a reference in all tag and document coding. The project
number shall be used as an attribute to the coding system (available in the data systems)
and will therefore not be a visible part of a tag or document code.
7.
7.1
General Format
Functional coding consists of system, subsystem, unit and item identification. It is usually
grouped in system and item functions.
7.2
System Function
The system code consists of six numeric characters, broken down as follows:

For systems that are not broken down, the various relevant characters shall be set to 0
(zero).
7.2.1
System
The systems are defined by the first and second numeric character of the six-character
functional code.
Reference is made to Annex A, System and Subsystem Coding.
Interfaces to other systems shall be set at items serving isolation and separation purposes
(e.g. valves, junction boxes, distribution boards, termination racks etc.).
7.2.2
Subsystem
The subsystems are defined by the third and fourth numeric character of the six-character
functional code.
Reference is made to Annex A, System and Subsystem Coding.
The interfaces between subsystems shall be defined as for systems.

7.2.3
Z-DP-002
Rev. 1, January 1995
Sub-subsystem
The fourth numeric character may be used for additional breakdown of subsystems into
sub-subsystems.
The sub-subsystems shall be defined by the individual project.
The differentiation of the fourth numeric character may be required for mechanical
completion, precommissioning, commissioning and operation activities.
Example of system, subsystem and sub-subsystem code:
Cooling medium and
refrigiration system,
System 40:

7.2.4
Unit
The units are defined by the fifth and sixth numeric character of the six-character
functional coding.
The units shall be defined by the individual project.
7.2.5
Subunit
The sixth numeric character may be used for additional breakdown of units into subunits.
The unit code shall define main units in steps of ten as 10, 20, 30, 40 etc. Subunits may be
identified as 11, 12, 13 etc. within unit 10 etc.
Example of unit and subunit code:

Item function
The item function code consists of maximum seven characters, broken down as follows:
AAAA NN
TSHH01
TSHH01A
EJ01
Item codes are unique within a system but common to all identical items in various
systems.

TAG CODING
8.1
General format
The actual tag coding consists of the following elements (described in clause 7):
Tagging means to equip an item function with a label that gives it a unique identification.
A tag is also allocated to a location.
Note: Tagging shall identify the lowest item function.
The tag code consists of:
System

AREA CODING
General
An installation is divided on a geographic/coordinate basis by means of area coding. The
area codes are used as attributes to plant items and documentation identification codes.
Format
The area code shall be:
A NN ZZ
Main area (alpha character)
Sub area (numeric character)
Section (alpha numeric character)
Three characters shall always be used.
Main Area (A)
A single alphabetic character defines a main area type or major division
within the plant as follows:

Annex H
Z-DP-002
Rev. 1, January 1995
GENERAL
Originator, responsible party and transmittal codes are a two or three character
alphanumeric code and is used in document coding to identify each contractor, supplier
and company.
They are also referenced in engineering registers.
ORIGINATOR CODES
The originator code defines which organization has created the document, by four alpha
numeric characters. The originator code does not change, even if the responsibility for a
document is transferred.
RESPONSIBLE PARTY CODES
The responsible party defines the organizational unit responsible for the original and
updating of the document. This organization will, at first, be the same as the originator but
may change during a document's life cycle.
For example will a document created by an engineering contractor have it's responsibility
transferred to the fabricator and later to a hook-up/commissioning contractor. After handover as as-built documentation, theoperation unit will be the responsible party for all
documents.
