RE: [MW:13928] Welder qualification

Dear All,
                 Please see the following SEC IX section given guide lines will be help for you...

      QW-201.1 The Code recognizes that manufacturers or
contractors may maintain effective operational control of
PQRs and WPSs under different ownership than existed
during the original procedure qualification. When a manufacturer
or contractor or part of a manufacturer or contractor
is acquired by a new owner(s), the PQRs and WPSs may
be used by the new owner(s) without requalification, provided
all of the following are met:
(a) the new owner(s) takes responsibility for the WPSs
and PQRs
(b) the WPSs reflect the name of the new owner(s)
(c) the Quality Control System/Quality Assurance
Program reflects the source of the PQRs as being from the
former manufacturer or contractor

Thanks & Best regards

If both the companies are under the same umbrella of quality management system, there won't be any problem

Dear Experts,
Please clarify.

Situation: Company 'A' has given a subcontract to company 'B' for repair welding of cast components.
Company 'A'-holds qualified WPS as per ASME sec IX and issues copy of them to company 'B' to follow for his work.

Question: Can the vendor (company 'B') is permitted to make production weld by following WPS of company 'A' with  company 'B's qualified welder?  indicate code reference.

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, ...
