In the standard of API 5L for line pipes of latest edition, there are two product specification level: PSL1
and PSL2. API 5L Specification is the result of harmonizing the requirements of the following standards:
In the preparation of this second edition of ISO 3183, the technical committee recognized that there
are two basic levels of standard technical requirements for line pipe and, therefore, agreed to establish
requirements for two product specification levels (PSL 1 and PSL 2). Level PSL 1 provides a standard
quality level for line pipe. Level PSL 2 has additional mandatory requirements for chemical composition,
notch toughness and strength properties and additional NDE. Requirements that apply to only PSL 1 or
to only PSL 2 are so designated. Requirements that are not designated to a specific PSL designation
apply to both PSL 1 and PSL 2. A table comparing this edition of ISO 3183 with the with the predecessor
International Standard ISO 3183 (all parts) and API Spec 5L and used in the harmonization of these
documents is given for information in Annex M in API 5L 44th edition.
The technical committee also recognized that the petroleum and natural gas industry often specifies
additional requirements for particular applications. In order to accommodate such needs, optional
additional requirements for special applications are available, as follows:
If you require PSL2, it means pipes are used for natural gas pipe or crude oil line pipe where there are
high requirements for pipe pressure, pipe anti-corrosion ability, high mechanical strength etc. But if
you just need PSL1, then it’s used as distribute line pipes. And it requires less requirements. Both PSL1
& PSL2 API 5L line pipes, HYSP could manufacture API 5L line pipes as per your requirements and
deliver to you with your satisfaction. You can contact us whenever you need API 5L LINE PIPE.
