PREFACE
DEPs (Design and Engineering Practice) publications reflect the views, at the time of publication, of:
Shell Global Solutions International B.V. (Shell GSI)
and
Shell International Exploration and Production B.V. (SIEP)
and
Shell International Chemicals B.V. (SIC)
and
other Service Companies.
They are based on the experience acquired during their involvement with the design, construction, operation and
maintenance of processing units and facilities, and they are supplemented with the experience of Group Operating
companies. Where appropriate they are based on, or reference is made to, international, regional, national and industry
standards.
The objective is to set the recommended standard for good design and engineering practice applied by Group
companies operating an oil refinery, gas handling installation, chemical plant, oil and gas production facility, or any other
such facility, and thereby to achieve maximum technical and economic benefit from standardization.
The information set forth in these publications is provided to users for their consideration and decision to implement.
This is of particular importance where DEPs may not cover every requirement or diversity of condition at each locality.
The system of DEPs is expected to be sufficiently flexible to allow individual operating companies to adapt the
information set forth in DEPs to their own environment and requirements.
When Contractors or Manufacturers/Suppliers use DEPs they shall be solely responsible for the quality of work and the
attainment of the required design and engineering standards. In particular, for those requirements not specifically
covered, the Principal will expect them to follow those design and engineering practices which will achieve the same
level of integrity as reflected in the DEPs. If in doubt, the Contractor or Manufacturer/Supplier shall, without detracting
from his own responsibility, consult the Principal or its technical advisor.
The right to use DEPs is granted by Shell GSI, SIEP or SIC, in most cases under Service Agreements prim arily with
companies of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group and other companies receiving technical advice and services from Shell GSI,
SIEP, SIC or another Group Service Company. Consequently, three categories of users of DEPs can be distinguished:
1) Operating companies having a Service Agreement with Shell GSI, SIEP, SIC or other Service Company. The
use of DEPs by these operating companies is subject in all respects to the terms and conditions of the relevant
Service Agreement.
2) Other parties who are authorized to use DEPs subject to appropriate contractual arrangem ents (whether as part
of a Service Agreement or otherwise).
3) Contractors/subcontractors and Manufacturers/Suppliers under a contract with users referred to under 1) or 2)
which requires that tenders for projects, materials supplied or - generally - work performed on behalf of the said
users comply with the relevant standards.
Subject to any particular terms and conditions as may be set forth in specific agreements with users, Shell GSI, SIEP
and SIC disclaim any liability of whatsoever nature for any dam age (including injury or death) suffered by any company
or person whomsoever as a result of or in connection with the use, application or implem entation of any DEP,
combination of DEPs or any part thereof, even if it is wholly or partly caused by negligence on the part of Shell GSI,
SIEP or other Service Company. The benefit of this disclaimer shall inure in all respects to Shell GSI, SIEP, SIC and/or
any company affiliated to these companies that may issue DEPs or require the use of DEPs.
Without prejudice to any specific terms in respect of confidentiality under relevant contractual arrangements, DEPs shall
not, without the prior written consent of Shell GSI and SIEP, be disclosed by users to any company or person
whomsoever and the DEPs shall be used exclusively for the purpose for which they have been provided to the user.
They shall be returned after use, including any copies which shall only be made by users with the express prior written
consent of Shell GSI, SIEP or SIC. The copyright of DEPs vests in Shell GSI and SIEP. Users shall arrange for DEPs to
be held in safe custody and Shell GSI, SIEP or SIC may at any time require information satisfactory to them in order to
ascertain how users implement this requirement.
All administrative queries should be directed to the DEP Administrator in Shell GSI.

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 SCOPE
This DEP specifies appropriate standards for metallic construction materials. It is a
revision of, and replaces, the DEP of the same number and title dated October 1982.
By identifying alternative materials standards, this DEP has two main functions, as
follows:
 Where a particular materials standard is specified for certain equipment (e.g. in a
DEP), if the Contractor wishes to propose an alternative (equivalent) material he may
use this DEP to select a suitable materials standard which would normally be
acceptable to the Principal. Note, however, that such substitution shall not be made
automatically and still requires the approval of the Principal.
 In situations where required materials are not explicitly specified, this DEP may be
invoked to act as a basis for the Contractor's materials selection.
It should be realized that materials may fail owing to undesirable properties being induced
during fabrication and/or service, such as metallurgical changes or corrosion of various
types. Such factors shall be taken into account when selecting a material for a given
service. Measures which may be required to prevent or limit such risks (e.g. special heat
treatment) are outside the scope of this DEP and are not indicated. The materials
engineer should therefore be consulted regarding selection of materials.
1.2 DISTRIBUTION, INTENDED USE AND REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS

Unless otherwise authorised by SIPM, the distribution of this DEP is confined to
companies forming part of the Royal Dutch/Shell Group or managed by a Group
company, and to Contractors nominated by them (i.e. the distribution code is "C", as
described in DEP 00.00.05.05-Gen.).
This DEP is intended for use in oil refineries, chemical plants, gas plants, exploration and
production facilities and supply/marketing installations.
If national and/or local regulations exist in which some of the requirements may be more
stringent than in this DEP, the Contractor shall determine by careful scrutiny which of the
requirements are the more stringent and which combination of requirements will be
acceptable as regards safety, environmental, economic and legal aspects. In all cases the
Contractor shall inform the Principal of any deviation from the requirements of this DEP
which is considered to be necessary in order to comply with national and/or local
regulations. The Principal may then negotiate with the Authorities concerned with the
object of obtaining agreement to follow this DEP as closely as possible.
1.3 STANDARDS
This DEP identifies materials to ASTM standards with reference to various other
standards. All series of standards rank equally, although individual specifications may not
be identical.
The choice of standard, therefore, is optional and depends on practical circumstances,
such as the location where the plant is to be erected, the acceptability of the standard
under the applicable design/construction code and the availability and economy of the
material.
In order to avoid confusion and to provide a consistent basis for the basic specification of
the materials, only one series of standards should be used for any particular piece of
equipment (i.e. avoid mixing ASTM standards with JIS standards, etc.).
Where a deviation from this rule is required, agreement shall be obtained from the
Principal.
The use of trade names for materials shall be avoided whenever an authoritative
specification reference is available.
NOTES: 1. Where metric versions of ASTM standards are available (e.g. ASTM A278M) they should be
selected. In most cases, ASTM standards and their metric version are issued as a single standard
(e.g. ASTM A182/A182M).
2. When BS, DIN or AFNOR standards are replaced by EN standards, the EN standard shall be
considered equivalent.
1.4 CATEGORIES OF METALS

The following categories of metals are covered by this DEP:
 Ferrous metals - unalloyed
 Ferrous metals - alloyed
 Non-ferrous metals
In each category the following products are dealt with:
 Plates, sheets and strip;
 Tubes and tubing;
 Pipe;
 Forgings, flanges and fittings;
 Castings;
 Bars, sections and wire;
 Bolting.
1.5 SEQUENCE OF MATERIALS

The sequence of materials in the column "Designation and Application" in Sections 2, 3
and 4 is generally such that the subsequent number indicates a material with an increase
in the concentration and/or number of the alloying elements.
1.6 SPECIFICATION OF MATERIALS

Materials standards identified on drawings, requisition sheets or other documents shall be
specified fully in accordance with the information given in Sections 2, 3 and 4, including all
additional requirements applicable to the standard. For materials covered by the MESC
system, the additional requirements stated therein shall also be met.
The latest issue of the selected materials standard shall be used. As this latest issue
(including amendments) always prevails, the year of issue of the standard need not be
shown.
1.7 METAL TEMPERATURE LIMITS

The temperature limits shown in Sections 2, 3 and 4 are approximate limits allowed for
the average temperature through the cross-section of the construction material during
normal operation.
The values mentioned should be regarded as an indication only and do not
necessarily apply to cases where corrosion and/or conditions which may affect the
structure of the material occur.
It should be noted that the indicated temperature limits do not necessarily exclude the
application of the materials beyond these limits, especially for non-pressure-retaining
parts such as internal parts of columns, baffles of heat exchangers, supporting structures,
etc.
Temperatures shown in brackets, e.g. (+400), are unusual for the indicated application
but are allowable from a materials point of view, if so required.
Special attention should be given to the specification and application of metals for service
at low temperatures (metal temperature -20 °C or lower), for which reference shall be
made to Appendix 1 of this specification and to DEP 30.10.02.31-Gen. The materials
engineer should be consulted if there is any doubt on the choice of material for
extreme service temperatures.
1.8 CHEMICAL COMPOSITION

Chemical composition requirements relate to product analyses.
Percentage compositions are by mass.
1.9 DEFINITIONS
1.9.1 General definitions

The Contractor is the party which carries out all or part of the design, engineering,
procurement, construction, commissioning or management of a project or operation of a
facility. The Principal may undertake all or part of the duties of the Contractor.

APPENDIX 1 LOW TEMPERATURE (LT) STEELS FOR USE WITH DEP 30.10.02.31-Gen.
The requirements in this appendix relate to the results of Charpy impact tests on full-size
V-notched test pieces (10 mm x 10 mm) tested in accordance with the relevant material
specification. The orientation of the Charpy impact specimens (transverse or longitudinal)
is optional, unless indicated otherwise in the tables. The minimum specified impact
energy is the average of the results of tests made on three test pieces. At most one result
may be lower, with a minimum value at least 70% of the specified minimum average
value. If sub-size specimens have to be used, the required impact value shall be obtained
by multiplying the value specified for full-size specimens by the relevant factor below:
Specimen Size (mm) Factor
10 x 7.5 0.80
10 x 5.0 0.70
For carbon and carbon-manganese steels, the impact requirements are related to
specified minimum tensile strength, as indicated below:
Specified Minimum Required Impact Energy
UTS Value at the Material
(N/mm2) Specification Impact Test
Temperature
(10 x 10 mm specimen)
(Joules)
< 450  27
 450  40
Where the material specification specifies a testing temperature different from the
standard testing temperatures (0, -20, -30, -40, -50, -60, -80, -100, -120, -196 °C), the LT
Number has been obtained by interpolating on the basis of 1.5 Joules per °C. For
example, 18 Joules at -51 °C may be regarded as 27 Joules at -45 °C, i.e. LT 40.
