GOST 28822-90 PDF

Full title and description

GOST 28822-90 — Автоматизированные системы налива и слива морских и речных судов. Общие технические требования и методы испытаний. (English: Automatic systems for loading and unloading sea and river vessels — General technical requirements and test methods). The standard defines technical, safety and test requirements for stationary berth automated systems used for transfer of oil, oil products, ballast and other oil-containing waters and vapour–air mixtures during handling of sea and river vessels.

Abstract

This GOST sets classification, principal characteristics, compatibility parameters, safety and environmental protection requirements, and specified test methods for shore-based automated loading/unloading (ship-to-shore) systems (including loading arms, stingers/stenders and associated piping and control equipment) used at berths working with oil and oil products. It includes mandatory and informative appendices with quality indicators and terms.

General information

• Status: In force (original national GOST introduced and maintained; listed as действующий in catalogues and databases).
• Publication date: Approved 27 December 1990; introduced 1 January 1992 (designation: GOST 28822-90).
• Publisher: State standards authority (approved by the State Committee for Standards of the USSR; published as a national GOST).
• ICS / categories: Ships and marine technology; petroleum and terminal transfer systems (commonly indexed under marine/port technology and petroleum transfer sectors) — e.g. relevant ICS fields include 47.020 (ships and marine technology) and 75.200 (petroleum and natural gas industries) (approximate classification for search/cataloguing purposes).
• Edition / version: Original edition: GOST 28822-90 (1990 / in force from 1992).
• Number of pages: Typically published with about 15 pages in national catalogues (some commercial vendors list shorter extracts/English translations of ~11 pages).

Scope

The standard applies to stationary berth automated systems intended for the loading (nalling) and unloading (sliv) of oil, oil products, ballast and other oil-bearing waters, and for removal of vapour–air mixtures during ship handling at sea and river berths. It governs classification, main technical characteristics, interoperability parameters, safety measures (including protection against hydraulic shocks, lightning, electrostatic and electromagnetic influences), environmental protection requirements and specified acceptance and type tests for equipment and assemblies.

Key topics and requirements

• Classification of automated loading/unloading systems for sea and river vessels (types and functional groups).
• Principal technical characteristics and performance parameters (flow, pressure, range of motion, allowable vessel movement, mechanical and hydraulic limits).
• Compatibility and interfacing parameters to ensure safe connection between shore equipment and ship fittings (mechanical, hydraulic, pneumohydraulic, control/signal interfaces).
• Safety requirements: protections against hydraulic shock, lightning, electrostatic charge, electromagnetic interference; requirements for earthing/grounding and insulation resistance tests.
• Environmental protection requirements for prevention and control of spills, vapour handling and containment during transfer operations.
• Acceptance and type test methods including pressure tests, leak testing, electrical insulation tests and radio-interference checks; specified test durations, pressures and acceptance criteria.
• Mandatory appendix with a nomenclature of quality indicators for use in technical specifications and a set of normative references and terms (informative appendices provide term definitions and a list of related standards to use when drafting technical tasks and specifications).

Typical use and users

Used by port and terminal engineers, berth designers, manufacturers and suppliers of marine loading arms and piping systems, integrators of automated transfer and control systems, operators of oil and oil-product terminals, metrology and testing laboratories, classification societies and regulatory/safety authorities responsible for marine transfer operations. It is referenced when writing technical specifications, procurement documents, acceptance test procedures and safety assessments for ship-to-shore transfer equipment.

Related standards

The standard replaces earlier national documents on similar subjects (for example, ГОСТ 19762-81 and ГОСТ 26481-85) and cites a number of normative references used for electrical, mechanical and measurement requirements (examples appearing in the normative list include ГОСТ 12997-84, ГОСТ 16842-82 and other GOSTs and construction/installation rules). In practice it is used alongside international guidance for oil tanker and terminal transfer safety (e.g., ISGOTT) and modern ISO/API documents governing LNG/oil transfer operations and terminal design.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: GOST 28822-90 is a national (Soviet / Russian) standard that establishes general technical requirements and test methods for stationary automated systems used to load and unload sea and river vessels (primarily for oil, oil products, ballast and oil-containing waters). It was approved 27 December 1990 and put into effect 1 January 1992.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers classification, main technical characteristics, compatibility/interfacing parameters, safety and environmental protection requirements, and prescribed test and acceptance methods (pressure and leak testing, electrical insulation, radio-interference checks, etc.) for berth automated transfer systems and associated equipment.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Port/terminal operators, berth and pipeline designers, equipment manufacturers (marine loading arms, hydraulic couplings, hoses and connectors), systems integrators, testing and metrology laboratories, safety engineers and regulators preparing technical specifications, acceptance tests and safety documentation.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: The document GOST 28822-90 is listed in national catalogs as действующий (in force) and historically replaced earlier GOSTs on the same topic; national databases show the standard in effect and provide update/validation metadata (catalog entries indicate review/actualization activity has occurred in national repositories). For projects with international interfaces or more recent technology (e.g., LNG transfer or modern electronic control systems) users often supplement it with contemporary ISO, API or other specialised documents.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: It is part of the body of GOST standards covering marine transfer and related electrical, mechanical and measurement topics; the standard itself lists and refers to multiple other GOSTs and industry rules needed when developing technical tasks and technical specifications for particular system types.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: Automated loading/unloading, marine loading arm, ship-to-shore transfer, oil and oil products, berth automated systems, test methods, leak/pressure test, grounding, vapour handling, GOST 28822-90.
