If you weld small diameter and less thickness, TIG welding may be preferred.

Dear All

In socket welding of high pressure steam pipeline we have to weld by
SMAW . But our Client ask us, first pass of welding should be by  TIG
welding. Then SMAW welding. Is TIG welding necessary in socket
welding. Please suggest with any code reference
