Pipeline Warning Tape
Pipeline Warning Tape
(OP)
Can anyone please give me information about requirements for warning tapes for underground pipelines (oil products). Namely regarding lettering. Does it needs to have lettering or not.

RE: Pipeline Warning Tape
It’s a pipeline warning tape. It probably ought to say something like “warning.... petroleum pipeline below.” It may not have to say what’s being transported today. Maybe it should include the pipeline company’s name and contact info. Probably, states and nation’s pipeline safety agencies dictate some of this, contact them.

It is pipeline warming tape so should say "WARMING BURIED PIPELINE BELOW " as a minimum.

State of the art now is a yellow or other colour mesh like this.
