Re: [MW:28131] PIPELINE PQR /WPS API 5L Grade X60

Hi,

In addition to that, its not suggestible to work with 7010 for all passes as it is economically not viable

Also 7018 will give good progress (high deposition rate) compare to 7010.

Your PQR may get qualified for 7010 but not advisable

Hi

My response for your query as below

1)  Pl refer Clause 7.2.1 of SAES-W-012, "All welding procedures for pipelines shall be qualified in accordance with API STD 1104 as required by the design codes, ASME B31.4 and ASME B31.8. 

     For other applications permitted by the design code, procedures may be qualified in accordance with ASME SEC IX."

2)  Pl refer Clause 7.4.19 & 7.2.1 Para 2 of SAES-W-012, - Required

3) & 4 )  Pl refer Clause 6.1.5 of SAES-W-012, go with manufacturer recommendation, Aramco is requirement is as per ASME Sec II C 

5)   Pl refer Clause 7.5.1 & 7.2.1 Para 2 of SAES-W-012, - Required

6)   Pl refer Clause 7.4 – Procedure Variable of SAES-W-012

Thanks and Regards

Dear Experts,

Need your suggestions/feedback for developing PQR /WPS for the following:-

Wet crude Sour service pipeline , ASME B31.4/31.8 , API 5 L Gr X60 ,ISO 15156 ,PSL2 , 24" ,12.7MM thickness, ASME Sec IX/API 1104 , Temperature range 0 to 90' C

My quarry:-

1)As per the applicable Aramco Standard ( SAES-W-012) , for Manual Welding process PQR can be qualified to either ASME SEC IX or API 1104, but many are insisting to use API 1104 to qualify as it is a pipeline . So kindly advise

2) Impact test required?

3)Suggested Welding Consumables for a) SMAW only b) GTAW & SMAW

4)Contractor is insisting for all pass Downhill welding using cellulosic electode E7010 for all passes,to avoid baking and storage requirements of Low hydrogen electrode(E7018).Is it possible ?

5)Hardness required for PQR?

6)Can this PQR be used for welding API 5L Grade B joints, without re-qualification?

Apologize for the lenghty quarry, waiting your valuable reponses.

Thank you
