PROCEDURE FOR WELDING OF PIPING (GENERAL)

I. SCOPE 1) This procedure outlines the methodology for Code compliance, performance qualification, Weld preparation details, pre-heating and post heating requirements as they apply to welding and brazing operations. This procedure shall be followed with one or more of the following procedures in conjunction. * Procedure * Procedure * Procedure * Procedure * Procedure for welding for welding for welding for welding for welding of Carbon Steel piping of Stainless steel piping of Monel piping of Carbon steel to Stainless steel piping of Monel to Carbon steel piping

2) If the welding such as prefabrication of piping etc. is performed off site, all the procedures mentioned herein shall apply to off site work as well as on site work. 3) This procedure does not apply to welding of Pressure vessels. No welding shall be performed on Pressure vessels by this procedure. II. Code of Compliance: 1) All welding and Brazing on piping system shall comply with ANSI/ASME B31.3: Chemical Plant and Petroleum Refinery Piping. (Latest edition) III. Procedure and Performance Qualifications. 1) All Welders and welding procedures, Brazers & Brazing procedures shall be qualified as per ASME Boiler & Pressure vessel code, Section-IX - Welding and Brazing qualifications (latest edition). Welders shall be either qualified in 6G position or both 2G & 5G positions. Brazers shall be qualified in the flat flow, vertical up flow, and horizontal flat flow-positions. 2) The copies of WPS, PQR & WPQT shall be submitted to Clients engineer in charge for his approval, prior to start of any welding. 3) As an additional qualification (welders in process check) the first or one of the first few on site welds for each individual welder may be radiographed to a Random radiography as mentioned in (4.0) below. This examination shall be done at our sole option. The initial weld examination shall not be a part of Radiographic requirements of the particular job. 4) If there is any justifiable reason to question the ability of any welder, he may be re qualified to the requirements. IV. INSPECTION, EXAMINATION & REPAIR 1) Inspection and examination of all piping work shall be performed in accordance with Chapter VI of ANSI/ASME B 31.3 cooling water piping, usually designated as CWS & CWR on the drawings shall be examined by visual method only. All other piping shall be examined by visual method and Radiographic examination.

III

2) Each weld selected for Radiographic examination shall be fully radiographed to cover the entire weld. Examination results shall meet the requirements of Random Radiography standard in accordance with ANSI/ASME B 31.3. V. WELD PREPARATION DETAILS 1) For piping refer to ANSI/ASME B 31.3 for weld preparation details. Any additional details that are specific to a particular project shall be mentioned on the corresponding drawings of the project. VI. PRE & POST WELD HEAT-TREATMENT 1) The requirements shall be met as per Chapter V ANSI/ASME B 31.3.
