Re: [MW:15690] ASME Re-Certification / Pressure Vessel / Sec VIII Div 1, 2

Dear vino

Yes u have to demonstrate for re certification of ur certificates. Some of the points are mentioned below for your ref
(1) if u r going for U stamp re certification make sure tht u have ur ndt sub contractor level appointment letter in place .u have to demonstrate on any on going jobs or if u do not have any order then u have to make a demo vessel. U have to demo atleast two joints to be on the b on the safer side. Make sure tht u organise ur design sub contractor to be present during the audit nd ifbthe design is in house then ensure tht all the mechanical design are signed off by the authorised person only as itbis mentioned in ur manual. Please concentrate on ur wps nd pqr thtnu have qualified nd used for the job which u have already finished. This would be the most imp section then comes ur material section . Please go through the material part thourghly.

(2)  i f u r a U2 certificate holder then please ensure that u get the uds nd mdr certified for the demo design. U don't have to fabricate a vessel for this.

(3) make sure tht all ur ndt procedure are approved by ur appointed level lll nd accepted by company person as mentioned in ur manual

I hope these points will help u to initially start of with. Please keep consulting ur authorised inspector for any query nd this can only be cleared with a good team effort nd management support. Well can I no who is the team leader who is going to audit u

Regards

Nitin

Dear Experts,
 
Please share information with regard to Re-Certification requirements of ASME Sec VIII Div 1 & 2.
Our company is organising to have this done in Mar'13.
 
Do we require any ongoing Pressure Vessel for Re-Certification or any previous completed Vessel in 2012 can be considered for Re-Certification.
 
I appreciate if you have a built guidelines for the same to share...
 
Thanks & Regards
Vino - Doha

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, ...
