Hi Mr. Pradip Goswami,
Thanks a lot for the info,
Shall we need to reconfirm the soundness of the weld and HAZ area by any means of NDT prior to PWHT once again? As it was delayed for more than a week, any specific requirements are their?
I'm not connected to this subject, but for my information I am requesting you….
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Mac,
One week without PWHT on 3.5" think Grade -91 Steel is too long. In spite of hydrogen bake out one may get cracking. Did any one check the hardness of weld and HAZ by any means (just for curiosity??).
Also prior to the DHT the welds should be cooled to Mf temperature which is generally the ambient temperature. In absence of it full martens tic transformation won't happen causing poor creep strength in these steels. DHT may be adopted before the PWHT, however not advised to delay PWHT so long.
It's worth looking at.
Thanks.

Dear Sirs,
We welded a 15E Pipe material (16 inch - 87mm thickness).
Our procedure will be preheated with 205 deg centigrade then welding and will be
( hydrogen ) bakeout and perform PAUT, If accepted in PAUT, immediately followed
by PWHT and will perform MT.
Process is B31.1
The joint has been accepted by PAUT, my query is, how long should be acceptable if there is a delay in performing PWHT?
Right now it is almost 1 week that the welded joint is not yet PWHT.
Need your advice.
