Which code applies to the stress analysis of pipes for LNG production systems on ships?

Good afternoon, any recommendations to follow. The design of the ship and therefore the other systems such as piping will follow the guidelines of code 467-NR_PartC_2023-07 STEEL SHIPS of BUREAU VERITAS.

But this standard indicates that the flexibility of the pipe must be analyzed, so it is not clear to me what code I have to use in the CAESAR II program. For me, the ASME B31.3 standard would apply but I would like if an expert in the field could help me with the standards to use for the design of the pipes (natural gas, LNG, bog, water, sea water, compressed air, vents , drains and lubricating oil).

B31.3 is probably the one to use, but I personally have not used it for LNG on ships.
