Unfortunately, I don't have any references or information to point you to a specific URL. I'd suggest you contact someone in the oil production side of things (Halliburton for example) and ask them for a lead to talk to.

Looks like there is something to learn everyday.
Will do some digging. Thanks for point the spot to dig.

TD2K gave correct information. If you want to learn more about such terms, and find links to many sources of related topics, go to http://www.woodcousa.com/ and click on the Web Site Tools link ( in red on the left side of the page ). There you will find all current API Specification 6A flanges, with a history, dimensions, working pressures, useful tips about pressure control equipment, etc. Good luck on your future learning.
