This document outlines some key differences in design standards between pipelines that transport liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and those that transport motor spirit/superior kerosene oil/high speed diesel (MS/SKO/HSD). Pipelines for LPG can have a maximum spacing of 12 km between mainline sectionalizing valves in certain areas, while the document does not specify a maximum for MS/SKO/HSD pipelines. LPG pipeline facilities must also be located at least 30 meters from a control room or compound wall, and 16 meters from a scrapper launcher/receiver, and sprinkler systems are required in certain areas of LPG pipeline facilities.
