As ASME B31.3 mentioned:
Piping in Normal Fluid Service shall be examined to the extent specified herein or to any greater extent specified in the engineering design
When a circumferential weld with an intersecting longitudinal weld(s) is examined, at least the adjacent 38 mm (11⁄2 in.) of each intersecting weld shall be examined. (Para. 341.4.1. (b).1.)
In your case there are two longitudinal seam welds intersecting circumferential weld from both sides in the same line so to cover this area the girth weld and longitudinal weld shall be radiograghed separately so that all intersection area shall be clearly tested in addition PT and Hardness test shall be carried out to ensure that there is no surface defect or loss in ductility.

Subject: Re: [MW:8022] RT of longitudinal seam
--Hi,this is applicable for longitudinal seam pipe and circuferential girth generally what we doing.what about when both side longitudinal seam are intersecting without maitain mim distance, at that RT is applicable to take 38mm both side or we have to maintain that nominal distance at any cost.attached B31.3 341alsothanks and regardsSujay

Dear Friends,Having doubt ,when longitudinal seam an intersecting with circuferential seam,Taking RT of circumferential full girth 100%, is acceptable or have to take 38mm of longitudinal seam an intersecting point and reference is B31.3 cl341.4.1The welds to be examined shall be selected to
ensure that the work product of each welder or welding
operator doing the productionwelding is included. They
shall also be selected to maximize coverage of intersections
with longitudinal joints. When a circumferential
weld with an intersecting longitudinal weld(s) is examined,
at least the adjacent 38 mm (1
1⁄2 in.) of each intersectingweld shall be examined.
thanks and regards
Sujay
