Background on API Standards Program The API Standardization Department was formed in 1923, with the first API standard published the following year on drilling threads. All industry segments now active in standardization: Exploration and Production Pipeline Transportation Refining Marketing

Slide 6 -

API Standards API now publishes more than 600 technical standards covering all aspects of the oil and natural gas industry Foundation of Self Supporting Programs Basis for Worldwide Operations Core of Institute’s Technical Authority

Slide 7 -

Standards Development Process The API Standards program is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) – the program was reaccredited by ANSI in Oct. 2011 following a 2010 audit. - Openness, Balance, Consensus, Due Process - Regular program audits (conducted by ANSI) Transparent process (anyone can comment on any document in process) - All comments must be considered

Slide 8 -

Developed by consensus (does not mean unanimity) Committee balance between users/owner operators, manufacturers and contractors/consultants Standards developed using ANSI approved API Standards Development Procedures (available on-line at www.api.org) API corporate membership is not a requirement for participation on API standardization committees. Support from your management to participate is. Standards Development Process

Slide 9 -

Use of API Standards “De facto” international standards Adoption by reference common by State and Federal agencies – BSEE, USCG, DOT, OSHA and EPA API does not promote adoption - prefer voluntary use Written for flexibility as performance based documents

Slide 10 -

AST Standards - History [From 653 - Annex A: Background on Past Editions of API Welded Storage Tank Standards] API published a specification for welded steel storage tanks in July 1936 entitled API Standard 12C, All-Welded Oil Storage Tanks. Fifteen editions and seven supplements to API 12C were published between 1936 and 1958. API 12C was replaced by API Standard 650, Welded Tanks for Oil Storage in December 1961; 11 editions and 22 supplements, revisions or addenda to API 650 have been issued since.
