This document aims to provide best practice technical guidance for SUT design, in order to aid in making informed choices during the design phase.
This document is intended to be read in conjunction with API 17TR9 (under development), which highlights technical and commercial risks associated with high functionality umbilical terminations, the implications of decisions made early in the umbilical and SUT planning, selection and design phases, and provides guidance on specification and sizing of SUTs.
