External Pressure Test API 17D: ôActual or Simulatedö
External Pressure Test API 17D: ôActual or Simulatedö
(OP)
Hi,
API 17D speaks for "actual or simulated" external pressure for the valve-actuator assembly test.
Do you know what "actual or simulated" mean?
Do I need really to test the valve when external subsea pressure is applied?
Thanks
