Re: Re: [MW:28652] API 1104 Internal Clamp and External Clamp

As i said as per governed WPS, it is in violation if parameters are not identical and you said you have both approved WPS, now it is very clear that there is a change in parameter, so when there is a change in parameter, change in direction of welding which is an essential variable as per API 1104, para 5,6 and 12 direction of welding, which violates the WPS and CODE.

Anyhow you can have a word with your TPI / Owner representative.

Dear Riaz,

Convince the Client and get it accepted. If the situation doesn't permit no other way for us, so case to case basis can be acceptable.

this is 18" dia pipe. If internal clamp is not possible, (like tie in joints) we can use external clamp . We developed different PQR-WPS for both internal and External  clamp welding.

Is it acceptable ?

It is in violation with conjuction to the governed approved WPS, if the paramaters of the both WPSs are not similar for shuffling.

Subject: [MW:28638] API 1104 Internal Clamp and External Clamp

Dear  All,

External clamp and internal clamp WPS and PQR procedures are qualified with downhill process and uphill process respectively.  But one joint has welded with internal clamp following  all other variables as of external clamp WPS

Is this acceptable ? If yes , how can we justify ?

Pls help very urgent 

Ray
