Re: [MW:25632] WPS - In service welding

By Materials & Welding
Dear Waqas

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله

Please advise us about the following
1. We are preparing a new WPS for in-service welding.
2. Our scope is mechanical sleeve type b pipeline repair.
3. The pipeline operation condition has several flow rates.

do we need to make individual WPS for each flow rate, or one WPS could be applicable for all the flow rates?

Thanks,,,

Dear Waqas

 

Use the attached test assembly (Figure-B-2) given in appendice-B of API-1104.

Then attached the pump with known flow rate with its "fluid in" nozzle during welding to simulate real welding conditions.

Using water during PQR test will qualify all the flow rates and flow media because water produces severe thermal conditions.

Dear Faisal,

 

Can you please advise me how to maintain water flow rate in test coupon during performing PQR.

What should be the arrangement in this regard.

 

Regards,

MR. ANAS

 

YES

IF YOU WILL GO THROUGH APPENDIX –B  IT CLEARLY GUIDES US THAT IN-SERVICE WELDING PROCEDURE WILL BE BASED ON THE API-1104 PLUS ALTERNATIVE/ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS GIVEN IN APPENDIX B.

Thanks Mr. Faisal and Mr.Joydev.

Is the sections 5/7 is applicable to in service welding ? How we can justify this?

 

Regards

Anas

Dear sir,

As per API 1104 the Dia range 

A change from one specified OD group to another. These groups are defined as follows:

1) specified OD less than 2.375 in. (60.3 mm),

2) specified OD from 2.375 in. (60.3 mm) through 12.750 in. (323.9 mm),

3) specified OD greater than 12.750 in. (323.9 mm).

As per API 1104 the thickness range 

A change from one specified wall thickness group to another. These groups are defined as follows:

1) specified pipe wall thickness less than 0.188 in. (4.8 mm),

2) specified pipe wall thickness from 0.188 in. (4.8 mm) through 0.750 in. (19.1 mm),

3) specified pipe wall thickness greater than 0.750 in. (19.1 mm).

Dear Experts,

 

I am in a situation to establish WPS for in service piping as per 1104 Annex B. The WPS is for a split tee tie in joint (Encirclement Tee)

Split tee ASTM A 516 Grade B

Header pipe 24" sch 60 (API 5L Grade B)

 

How to select the thickness range ?

How to select dia range ?

What are the essential variables ?

 

Please guide me to make a preliminary WPS.

 

Thanks & Regards

Anas Karanath

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

By Materials & Welding
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

By Materials & Welding
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, ...
