The product code refers to a high-performance surge protection device (SPD) , typically utilized in industrial and commercial electrical systems . These units are designed to safeguard sensitive electronics and heavy machinery from transient voltage spikes—often caused by lightning strikes, grid switching, or large motor startups.

This comprehensive engineering standard establishes the strict technical, quality, and safety criteria required for all structural steelwork deployed across upstream and downstream energy infrastructure. Governed by the ADNOC Projects, Technical & Procurement Support (PT&CS) Directorate , this standard applies globally to major offshore and onshore asset facilities. Compliance with this code ensures that structures withstand intense operational and environmental conditions, eliminating structural risks while maximizing life cycles. Scope and Regulatory Framework

: Setting the bar for how steel is welded, bolted, and assembled in the field to prevent mechanical failure. Key Technical Areas ages-sp-01-002

Fabricators and contractors working with ADNOC must demonstrate compliance with AGES-SP-01-002 by maintaining updated inspection records, utilizing certified welders, and submitting regular QA/QC documentation (such as QC reports for structural steel).

This technical document serves as a standardized guide for ADNOC and its group companies—including ADNOC Onshore, Offshore, LNG, and Refining—to ensure that all structural steel work meets consistent quality and safety benchmarks across their various projects. Purpose and Scope The product code refers to a high-performance surge

Fabrication shops executing work under this code must undergo a thorough qualification process.

The primary goal of the specification is to define the minimum technical requirements for the entire lifecycle of structural steel in industrial and civil projects: Material Supply Governed by the ADNOC Projects, Technical & Procurement

The ADNOC PT&CS Directorate is the primary owner and custodian of this specification.

Governs Quality Assurance (QA) classes and Material Test Reports (MTRs) for structural components. Piping Basis of Design

The document outlines the minimum technical requirements for the procurement and construction of structural steel. It is designed to ensure:

: Materials undergo controlled thermal operations to ensure exact tensile and hardness specifications.
