Agenda
Why develop information standards for the process plant industries?
STEP APs for process plant
Industry use of AP 227
Extending AP 227 capabilities for other industries

Stakeholders in the Process Plant Industries
Process Industries includes:• chemical, gas processing, petrochemical, petroleum,
pharmaceutical, power generation
• food &beverage, pulp & paper, water & water processing
Process Plant Industries include:• owners/operators of process plants
• engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) companies
• equipment and component suppliers
• information technology suppliers

Need for Information Exchange Standards
Industry faces heterogeneous CAD/CAE environment -- in constant state of flux
Process plant typical life 25-50 years
CAE/CAD technology cycle 5-10 years
Technical information is reused over the life of the project, process, and plant
Large savings possible when engineering, procurement, construction, and operation can use diverse CAE/CAD and ERP systems
Standards enable these savings

What is a STEP Application Protocol?
AP: defines the usage of STEP for a defined application context
• driven by industry information requirements– uses activity modeling, usage scenarios, and
information modeling
• specifies conformance requirements for testing implementations
Enables reliable information exchange

Information Standards for the Process Plant Industries
Industry leaders exploiting IT and data exchange to improve project and plant performance
• hindered by lack of effective exchange standards for process models, P&IDs, 3D plant models and life cycle information
Move to international standards and broader industry collaboration
• PIEBASE - global coordination among industry consortia: ECOM, EPISTLE, pdXi, PISTEP, PlantEC, PlantSTEP, POSC, POSC/CAESAR, USPI-NL,…
Segments of the process plant industries are defining standards for sharing information
• STEP application protocols and data warehouse capabilities

APs for the Process Plant Industries
AP 212, Electrotechnical Design and Installation
AP 221, Functional Data and their Schematic Representation for Process Plant
AP 227, Plant Spatial Configuration
AP 231, Process Design and Process Specifications of Major Equipment (cancelled)
MEP/CIC Jan. 12, 2001
AP 227 - Plant Spatial Configuration
Scope: 3D plant design• emphasis on spatial layout and piping design• includes physical and functional characteristics• developed by PlantSTEP and NIST
Status:• International Standard (IS) sent to ISO• Delivery of commercial implementations:
– Dassault / IBM - CCPlant: IS implementation– Bentley - PlantSpace (MicroStation): 2001– Cadcentre - PDMS: in development– Intergraph - participating in ESTEP AP 227 project– STEP Tools - AP 227 viewer
• Merck requirement for CAD/CAE systems and pilot project– AP 227 requirement for plant CAD/CAE purchases
• Navy requirement for delivery of piping systems data• NASA requirement for plant CAD/CAE purchases

Usage Scenarios for AP 227 Edition 1
Exchange of piping components and equipment designs
Exchange of piping assemblies and systems spatial layout, with references to catalogs
Exchange of interference analysis results Exchange of changes to piping systems and
plant layout Exchange of piping installation information Exchange of modules of plant designs Exchange of as built plant configurations

Broader Industry Adoption of AP 227
After successes in process plant, U.S. Navy and shipbuilding companies adopted AP 227
• assessed AP 227 and determined sufficient foundation
• funding a Ship Piping Guide for AP 227
U.S. MARITECH Shipbuilding Program• ESTEP project is working on AP 227 edition 2
• add more information for HVAC, pipe flow analysis, hanger and support details, catalog referencing, PMI
More commercial implementations in 2001 Other companies are making AP 227 a
requirement for CAD/CAE system purchases and a tool for improving project delivery and information re-use
MEP/CIC Jan. 12, 2001
Extending AP 227 for Greater Benefits
Edition 2 project to extend AP 227 capabilities• process plant, piping fabricators and shipbuilding
Piping shop fabrication and inspection Piping installation HVAC design and installation Input for pipe and HVAC flow / stress analyses Support and hanger details Cableway spatial design and installation Positive material identification Ship unique information
