An insulated pressure vessel, such as a coke drum, having an insulation system installed thereon. The insulation system includes an insulation support system comprising either a floating ring type support system, or a cage type support system including a plurality of vertically spaced insulation support rings each having a diameter greater than the external diameter of the coke drum. A plurality of insulation panels are secured to the support rings, each panel including insulation material and an exterior metal jacket. The panels are secured to horizontally adjacent insulation panels with standing seams. Weather shields may be provided over the top of the seams. Tensioned insulation securing cables, corresponding in number to the insulation support rings, are routed through horizontally aligned eyelets in each standing seam.

A device for providing a temporary space between and a pipe and a pipe support comprises a standoff having a plurality of blocks, with each block having a top and a bottom surface spaced from each other by sides, and a plurality of flexible connectors interconnecting the blocks. At least one flexible connector extends between adjacent blocks. The standoff defines a height such that in a first condition, in which the standoff is disposed between the pipe and the pipe support, the standoff defines a space and the flexible connectors flex with the standoff extending along at least a part of a circumference and the pipe. The insulation can be disposed in the space between the pipe and the pipe support in a second condition in which the standoff is removed from between the pipe and the pipe support. A method is also disclosed.
