API Spec Q1 : 9th Edition Facts

What is API Spec Q1?

Product recalls have a devastating effect on any organization, but particularly oil and gas manufacturers. The American Petroleum Institute (API) has developed the API Spec Q1 9th edition standard to help organizations minimize the failure of manufactured products used in the oil and natural gas industries. The API Spec Q1 9th edition standard builds on the ISO9001/TS29001 requirements to be more specific to oil and gas product manufacturers.

What are the implications of API Spec Q1-9th Edition?

As public pressure increases to emphasize safer and more environmentally-friendly operations, major oil and natural gas firms are demanding higher standards from their suppliers. Spec Q1 certification represents your organization’s commitment to provide the highest quality products within the industry, as well as your commitment to operational safety and efficiency.

The 9th edition of API Spec Q1 expands into areas such as Management of Change (MOC), Quality Plans, Contingency Planning, Risk Assessment and Management, Design Review and Validation, and Preventative Maintenance, just to name a few. The 9th edition of Spec Q1 incorporates many of the risk management aspects of API Spec Q2. These added requirements further facilitate the consistent and reliable manufacture of API products.
