FOREWORD
This document has been developed by Facilities Quality Assurance Department to help users of
International, National, Industry Standards and Codes in identifying the QP approved documents
on various disciplines.
This document is based on the references of various approved standards and the recommendations
QP Engineers on various discipline. This document will specify the QP requirements and serve as a
technical guide for selecting QP approved standards and codes to be used in project
specifications/activities
This document, in its present numbering, layout and format was prepared in accordance with the
corporate endorsed Standardisation Procedure for Identification of QP Technical Standards (QP-
PRC-A-001) and the Guideline for Drafting QP Technical Standards (QP-GDL-A-003). It reflects, as
far as possible, the current QP requirements taking into account the known available industry
practices, QP experience and the applicable latest national and international codes and standards.
This document is published for QP Departments utilisation. It should be emphasised that the
document be used for QP operations wherever applicable and appropriate.
This document is subjected to periodical review to re-affirm its adequacy and to conform to any
changes in QP requirements or to include new developments on the listed standards and codes.
The Custodian of this document is Quality Assurance Department. Therefore, all technical
comments, views, recommendations, etc on this document should be forwarded to:
1.0 OBJECTIVE
The objective of this document is to ensure that QP accepted Standards and Codes are
identified and QA/QP Engineers are following these standards/codes in their activities.
2.0 SCOPE
3.0 APPLICATION
