Dear Ramon,

Thanks, obviously I will look for compliance of the API 2201.

Best Regards,

Asunto: [MW:32036] In -service welding on HP Gas line, prior to Hot Tapping. Need immediate suggestions.

Dear Respected ones, 

We are planning a hot tapping on the HP gas line, which is 30" dia, and thickness 15mm, and carbon steel material. 

Around 15-meter length, where both the ends are closed by check valves. 

The line is isolated, we want to weld a 2" dia ventilate on the 30" pipe.

There is no flow is possible. We have to complete this work at any cost, the client says. Is this okay for you? it can be safe? 

Due to 15mm thickness, we are planning to do by 2.5mm, E 7018 electrode by the lower current. 

Please advise, any vapor cloud will be an issue inside the pipe? or we can do it because thick ness is high?  or shall we ask for at least a minimum flow so the vapor cloud will not be there. 

Looking sincerely your support friends. 

For your information, we regularly do such hot tapping works, at 800PSI pressure, but, with the flow. 04m/s.

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, ...

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...
