NDE for API 6L GrB PSL1?

NDE for API 6L GrB PSL1?

(OP)
We usually use SA-106B seamless pipe, but due to size and availability issues are now contemplating the use of API 6L GrB PSL1.

I have the chemical, mechanical, and hydrotest specs, but haven't been able to find the welding NDE specs of the pipe.  Does anyone have a quick reference or know of what NDE is used?

RE: NDE for API 6L GrB PSL1?

Essentially API 5L requires the long seam be 100% inspected either by RT, UT or electromagnetic, depending on the joining method, eg ERW or SAW.

Note PSL 2 is a superior product
