Summary of MOTEMS piping requirements • Reconciling lack of performance-based acceptance criteria in ASME piping codes • Typical input requirements for piping analysis • Level of detail for adequate analytical modeling. | 1 Methods to Analyze Petroleum Pipelines Subjected to a Contingency Level Earthquake Douglas G. Honegger . Honegger Consulting Arroyo Grande CA 2 Presentation Topics Summary of MOTEMS piping requirements Reconciling lack of performance-based acceptance criteria in ASME piping codes Typical input requirements for piping analysis Level of detail for adequate analytical modeling 3 MOTEMS Seismic Motions Design Earthquake Motions. Two levels of design seismic performance shall be considered. These levels are defined as follows Level 1 Seismic Performance - Minor or no structural damage - Temporary or no interruption in operations Level 2 Seismic Performance - Controlled inelastic structural behavior with repairable damage - Prevention of structural collapse - Temporary loss of operations restorable within months - Prevention of major spill 1200 bbls
