API - American Petroleum Institute
API standards address several key aspects of the oil and gas industry, including exploration and production, refining, fire protection and safety, petroleum measurement and marine transportation. These documents reference offshore production, drilling, structural pipe, pipeline, health and environmental issues, valves, storage tanks, etc.

This Code contains rules for piping typically found in petroleum refineries; chemical, pharmaceutical, textile, paper, semiconductor, and cryogenic plants; and related processing plants and terminals. This Code prescribes requirements for materials and components, design, fabrication, assembly, erection, examination, inspection, and testing of piping. This Code applies to piping for all fluids including: (1) raw, intermediate, and finished chemicals; (2) petroleum products; (3) gas, steam, air and water; (4) fluidized solids; (5) refrigerants; and (6) cryogenic fluids. Also included is piping which interconnects pieces or stages within a packaged equipment assembly

API MPMS 8.2 Manual of Petro Measure Standards (Chapter 8) Sampling
The development of consensus standards is one of API’s oldest and most successful programs. Beginning with its first standards in 1924, API now maintains some 500 standards covering all segments of the oil and gas industry. Today, the API standards program has gone global, through active involvement with the ISO and other international bodies. API is an American Petroleum Institute (ANSI) accredited standards developing organization, operating with approved standards development procedures and undergoing regular audits of its processes. API produces standards, recommended practices, specifications, codes and technical publications, reports and studies that cover each segment of the industry. API standards promote the use of safe, interchangeable equipment and operations through the use of proven, sound engineering practices as well as help reduce regulatory compliance costs, and in conjunction with API’s Quality Programs, many of these standards form the basis of API certification programs.

API RP 556 Instrumentation and Control Systems for Fired Heaters and Steam Generators
American Petroleum Institute .. Publication Date:May 1, 1997
Scope:
This document covers recommended practices that specifically apply to instrument and control system installations for fired heaters and steam generation facilities in petroleum refinery and other hydrocarbon-processing plants. This document also discusses the installation of primary measuring instruments, control systems, alarm and shutdown systems, and automatic start-up and shutdown systems for fired heaters, steam generators, carbon monoxide or waste-gas steam generators, gas turbine exhaust-fired steam generators, and unfired waste heat steam generators. Although the information has been prepared primarily for petroleum refineries, much of it is applicable without change in chemical plants, gasoline plants, and similar installations.
