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. --- On Sat, 5/28/11, asad azmi <azmiasadayub@gmail.com> wrote: From: asad azmi <azmiasadayub@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [MW:11173] pittings on surface of Shell To: materials-welding@googlegroups.com Date: Saturday, May 28, 2011, 5:44 AM vessel is newly consturcted. there is no problem regarding thickness. corrosion allowance is 3 mm.
