[MW:11226] Piggy-back pipeline installation

Hi everyone¡¡¡
 
We are tendering for a 24" Ø and 4" Ø piggy-back  pipeline project.
 
I'm looking for a operational procedure or technique to install the pipelines. I know that the 4" Ø piggy-back pipeline is holded on the 24" Ø carrier pipeline, but how to weld the 4" Ø field joints and put it onto the 24" Ø pipeline inside the ramp of the barge?
 
Thanks for your time and help.

hi,
it will be straight under lower mag and same will be in zig-zag/tapered in both direction under high mag.
each zig-zag point connects to make a straight line(H .mag).
under low mag u can see zig-zag only if the residual/ service stress is high enough to reveal it and it will be not straight at normal mag.

[MW:11218] RE: 11149] Re: Reduction temperature for LTCS

Hello MPK,

Please see the attached document ,which gives a broad overview of sour services both as per MR-0175(upstream) and MR-0103(downstream).Feel free ask more questions if you wish.

Note:-to understand  sour services one does not have to be a NACE Corrosion specialist. A person with good common sense and engineering background would be able to comprehend the requirements after reading through the above documents.

Regarding " What is reduction temperature for LTCS" if you provide the details about the problem, I would be able to guide you.

Thanks and best regards.

To understand Sour service you have to spend some time turning pages of NACE MR 0175 all parts and MR 0103 to start with. Later on API RPs.
After that you are sure to become a corrosion specialist, depending on your understanding.

I fail to understand your question "What is reduction temperature for LTCS ?"

Dear Limesh,

 

Just see clause 452.3 in ASME Sec.IX, there are Diameter restrictions, you have qualified your welder in 1 1/2 " Pipe means he falls in 1"(25mm) to 2 7/8"(73mm) restriction, which says Welder can weld from 1" to unlimited, but now for his renewal you are supporting 8" pipe, So asthetically it is not possible, he may fall in over 2 7/8" ( ie 73mm to unlimited), So better to show RTs of 1 1/2" or less than 2 7/8" Pipe . So that he can regain his qualification subject to his contuity record.

RE: [MW:11211] ARC Blow

In general The shifting of the arc in various directions in electric-arc welding due to the magnetic fields at the arc.

OR

A welding arc may be deflected away from the point of welding, which can mean that the weld quality may suffer. Such arc deflection, usually forward or backward of the welding direction, is known as 'arc blow'.

 

Arc blow tends to occur if the material being welded has residual magnetism at a certain level, particularly when the weld root is being made. This is due to interaction between the directional magnetic field of the welding arc and the directional field of the residual magnetism.

 

Remedies for Arc Blow - Arc blow can be minimized by keeping the following factors in view:

1. Electrode geometry in non consumable electrode welding (e.g., TIG and carbon arc welding).

2. Changing the position of earth clamp or current return lead and welding away from the earth connection.

3. Avoiding the presence of (or rearranging) magnetic materials around the workpiece and arc.

4. Storing workpieces away from magnetic sources, such as welding power sources.

5. Lowering the arc current.

 

ETC

 

Thanks

Re: [MW:11208] Renewal of Welder Qualification

Dear Limesh,
 
Just see clause 452.3 in ASME Sec.IX, there are Diameter restrictions, you have qualified your welder in 1 1/2 " Pipe means he falls in 1"(25mm) to 2 7/8"(73mm) restriction, which says Welder can weld from 1" to unlimited, but now for his renewal you are supporting 8" pipe, So asthetically it is not possible, he may fall in over 2 7/8" ( ie 73mm to unlimited), So better to show RTs of 1 1/2" or less than 2 7/8" Pipe . So that he can regain his qualification subject to his contuity record.

Dear All,

Welder Qualification Code: ASME BPV SEC IX

I have a qualified welder with following diameter range.

1.1/2'' and above


Now his qualification is going to expire and I would like to renew it by showing supporting radiography reports.

Is it possible to renew the above qualification by showing the radiography report of an 8" diameter pipe?


Regards,

Limesh

RE: [MW:11207] Root Pass Welding

Hi,

 

E6010: This basic, all-purpose electrode was developed for pipe welding. It has a high cellulose sodium coating and can be operated in all positions. The E6010 works well on dirty, rusted or greasy metals and small-diameter pipes.

Dear Friend

E6010 is Sellulosic coated electrode which is having high penetrating power so it is used for root welding.

RE: [MW:11201] pittings on surface of Shell

As this vessel is low pressure water service, you could do buttering onto the shell pitting areas by using qualified WPS & welder.

Make smooth grinding and MPI before buttering and do MPI after buttering.

(Of course, ASME SEC VIII DIV1 requirement to be checked and derogate as required)

please refer to API 510 (corrosion and minimum thickness evaluation) clause , since you have corrosion allawance 3mm, thus you do not to fear, but we have smillar case in our plant so we applied internal coat (joutn marthon) as this coat is hard and applied to splash zone in offshore rig, and we inspect it after one year the condition of paint was excellent and no pitting was observed , you have to think in internal coating to stop pitting from proceeding.

1. How long period in service .

2.What is previous Corrosion allowance as Inspection was carried out .

3.you should mentioned in what area to be taken under serious consideration and how much  depth in major areas.

Dear All,

 

Greetings.

 

Pittings (not more than 0.5 mm in depth) observed on the surface of a shell of a Vessel. pls find photos for your reference.

 

Shell material  is SA 36. thickness 8mm. service fluid - water

 

Code of construction is ASME SEC VIII DIV1

 

After grindings also pittings can be observed on the large surface of the shell.

 

Whether these pittings can be accepted as it is OR further grinding is required.

 

Please Suggest.

 

Thanks and Regards

Re: [MW:11197] Difference Between Blowing and Purging

Dear Hafiz,
 
Steam blowing will be done generally to clean the steam piping before put the steam piping into service this will remove all loose mill scale, rust and foreign materials from piping. If left uncleaned, these particles will reach steam turbine blades through piping and damage them. Used for steam piping and steam circuits of boilers - power plants
 
Nitrogen purging is charging the piping with nitrogen gas before charging the line with hydro carbons/chemicals to make them inert (to displace the atmospheric air which contains oxgen) to avoid any explosion/chemical reaction. Used for hydrocarbon piping, pressure vessels, equipment etc. - oil and gas

Regards,
T.V.Ramakrishna.

Hi mustaffi,
 
It is better to use 99.998% purity of ultra pure argon as a purging & shielding gas.It gives sound quality of welding and better results.
In this other components are
                                         oxygen   -- < 4.00PPM
                                         Moisture -- < 4.00PPM
                                         THC       --  < 0.5PPM
Oxygen & moisture percentage is more than 0.4PPM it may leads to corrosion ,contamination &  porosity.
Maintain gas flow rate between 25 to 40PPM.
