[MW:2750] Re: hydrostatic pressure for piping

I would like to add: Check you hoop stress as designed, if I am not wrong if the design is below 20% of hoop stress, API does not ask for pipe pressure

As per B31.8 considering worst situation of Zone 3 & 4 the min pressure at which Hydro is to be done is 1.4XMOP(max operating pressure) and max at which the hydro can be done is either at a design pressure or at a pressure more than the design pressure.For example if DP is 92 and MOP is 45 then min hydro pressure is 1.4X45=63 but if you carry out Hydro at 150 then your max ALLOWABLE operating pressure becomes 150/1.4=107 but since it is more than DP i.e.92 MAWP shall be only 92 and not 107.
