[MW:9791] Re: RT requirements for Tanks as per API 620?

If 85% jnt efficiency, then spot RT is required.

API 620 states in 5.26 Radiographic/Ultrasonic Examination 5.26.4.3
(a)
When parts of tanks do not require complete examination,
circumferential joints in cylindrical or conical surfaces need to be
prepared and examined for a distance of only 3 in. on each side of any
intersection with a longitudinal joint. All joints in a spherical,
torispherical, or ellipsoidal shape or in any other surface or double
curvature shall be considered longitudinal joints.
