WE ARE ALL FAMILIAR WITH THE API MACHINERY STANDARDS 610, 618, 617, 612 ETV AN IN REFINERY/PETROC WORK USE THEM ALMOST EVERY DAY

Could someone maybe a spesialist, help me with the following:
1.What is the difference between API 618 FOR A RECIPROCATING COMPRESSOR Versus a PIPSTNDAD OF THE SAME SUBJECT
2. CAN A PIP MACHINE BF USED IN A REFINERY OR IS IT ONLY FOR SAY A CHEMICAL PLANT?

THANK YOU
Aamir
