[MW:11178] Re: pittings on surface of Shell

Dear all,

First of all lets go one by one

stage-1 material inspection stage:
if these pitting have gone overlooked during incoming inspection then
it was really serious issue and even AI also didnt noticed.!!!

Refer UG-16(2) and as you said 3mm is corrosion allowance then it is
0.50mm is acceptable.if need UT to be done to get actual thickness
sorrouding area and deviation/concession note to be raised and Aproved
by AI.

Stage-2 fabrication stage:

if these things happend due to any atompheric effect/fabrication

Refer UW-32(a),/UW-35(1) (2) for acceptance.

in all case involvement of AI is mandatory.

if go depth..then u wil have to prepare repair procedure followed by
approved WPS prior commence any any repair!!!
