As per the standard?

The same as a horizontal pipe. Why would it be any different?

I have written ( ARAMCO THERMOWELL STANDARD DRAWING ) and search the web with YANDEX BROWSER . The outcome is ;

You may also search the web with Google also but i do not have any idea .

The drawing is ok, it is a typical standard termowell instalation, but in my opinion it has a dicutible statement.

"7-Flow may be in either direction but orientation is as shown"

I don´t see in the drawing any flow direction! And IMO this influences the erosion in thermo stems so the orientation thermowell fitings can´t be as shown in the drawing without the flow direction.
