[MW:4220] Querry on NACE std

Dear all,
I have few questions,as under,on NACE requirement and I seek
clarification of same on my understanding.Please share your experience
on interpretation of NACE standard.

1)Steel used by us(SA106GRB,SA105,SA234GRWPB), for Natural Gas,Crude
Oil and Condensate service application(with partial pressure of wetH2S
in the system much less than 0.05 psia),is not of very high UTS and
hardness is less than 22HRC.Is such steel susceptible to SSC and HIC
and needs compliance to MR0175/ISO15156 with eloberate testing??

2)If my above referred steel meets the requirement of A.2(Nace MR0175/
ISO15156-2)(with partial pressure of wetH2S in the system much less
than 0.05 psia),does it comply to NACE MR0175/ISO15156 SSC resistant
without any testing as per Annexure B??

3)If my above referred steel complies to requirement of % Sulphur as
per CL8.0 of Nace MR0175/ISO15156-2(with partial pressure of wetH2S in
the system much less than 0.05 psia),can it be considered complying to
NACE MR0175/ISO15156 HIC resistant without any testing as per Annexure
B??

4)If my system falls in SSC Zone 0(Fig 1,Cl 7.2.1.2 Page 9 of the
standard) with respect to H2S partial pressure vs Ph,does it still
call for NACE HIC compliance to the standard??


If my system falls in SSC Zone 1(Fig 1,Cl 7.2.1.2 Page 9 of the
standard) with respect to H2S partial pressure vs Ph,can we
straightaway go for material listed in A.2 without any testing as per
Annexre B??

5) Can Casting body be straightaway considered as non-susceptible to
HIC??
Regards
Aarpee

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
