Flow Induced Vibration Factor (Fv): (Reference Section T.2.2.3.4, Table T2-2)

Stiffness:= Flexible

According to table, A-4:

α = 770271.74 if stiffness = stiff

434289 if stiffness = Medium stiff

235349.6 if stiffness = Medium (273 <=D<=762)

NA if stiffness = Medium (60 <=D<=219)

66144.75 if stiffness = Flexible (273 <=D<=762)

NA if stiffness = Flexible (60 <=D<=219)

Flow induced vibration number, Fv:

Fv = 5607.37

Fluid Viscosity Factor (FVF): (Reference Section T.2.2.3.2)

FVF 1 (FVF is 1.0 for Liquid and Multiphase Fluids)

Flow Induced Turbulance LOF: (Reference Section T.2.2.3.5)

The likelihood of failure, LOF:

LOF = 1.26

Recommendations: (As per Table 3-1)

As per Table 3-1, for LOF= 1.26

Small Bore Connection on Main line should be assesed as per Section T3.

A Visual survey shuold be undertaken to check poor construction and/or Gerometry and/or support for main line and/or potential vibration
transmission from other sources. (As per Section T-5)
