The draft Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine proposes editorial amendments to subparagraph 1 of paragraph 2 of the Technical Regulation for Pressure Equipment, approved by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 27 of 16 January 2019 (notified in G/TBT/N/UKR/149, G/TBT/N/UKR/149/Add.1, G/TBT/N/UKR/149/Add.2).

Thus, subparagraph 1 of paragraph 2 of the Technical Regulation is amended to read as follows:

2. The requirements of this Technical Regulation do not apply to:

"1) pipelines or a system of piping designed for the conveyance of any fluid or substance to or from an installation (onshore or offshore) starting from and including the last isolation device located within the confines of the installation, including all the annexed equipment designed specifically for pipelines; this exclusion does not apply to standard pressure equipment such as may be found in pressure reduction stations or compression stations;".
