Advancing hydrogen pipeline safety and design - Introducing DNV's new recommended practice DNV-RP-F123

As hydrogen accelerates its role in the energy transition, ensuring safe, reliable, and cost-efficient transport infrastructure is becoming critical.

In this webinar, DNV experts will present DNV-RP-F123, our newly published recommended practice (RP) for hydrogen pipeline systems. Developed through extensive industry collaboration, the RP provides guidance to support both offshore and onshore applications, addressing key challenges such as material performance, integrity management, and safe design principles.

You will gain insights into: 

• Key considerations for design, re-qualification and operation of pipelines transporting hydrogen and hydrogen blends
• Implications of hydrogen on pipeline materials and integrity
• How DNV-RP-F123 complements existing standards, including DNV-ST-F101.
• Current limitations and uncertainties that require further research and development. 

Looking ahead, DNV continues to work closely with the industry to further advance knowledge and reduce uncertainty in hydrogen pipeline design. Building on the progress achieved to date, the next phase of our joint industry collaboration will focus on large-scale validation of pipeline behaviour under hydrogen exposure, helping refine future recommended practices and design methodologies. 

We welcome additional partners interested in contributing to this next step in advancing hydrogen pipeline standards.
