API or ASME Storage and Preservation Standards? 1

[jimwaa]

I remember an old standard for the preservation and storage of process equipment from many years ago. I believe it was API or ASME. Does anyone remember what its called or where to get it?

It addressed the long term storage of pumps, compressors, gear boxes, heat exchangers, etc.

Please help if you can.
