Request for Expert Advice on Crack Repair

I am writing to request the support of the experts out here on a crack repair in an exchanger. The exchanger has a fillet weld with the shell, and a crack was found during the last TAM. There is a possibility that the crack will be found again during this TAM.

The base material of the exchanger is 58mm P1 (A516-GR 70) with cladding of SS347 of 6mm. There are two scenarios to consider:

• Scenario 1: Localize repair of the ring chamber fillet weld by grinding and welding. The client is requesting for annealing after the repair. Is this really required?
• Scenario 2: If the crack propagates to the shell, the client is asking for DHT and PWHT. When should DHT be performed, before or after the cladding weld? Is there any exemption for PWHT?

I would be grateful for any advice that you can provide on these two scenarios. Thank you for your time and consideration.
