Hot-tapping chlorinated lines
Hot-tapping chlorinated lines
(OP)
I was asked to give choride content limits and temperature limits for welding chlorinated lines in-service. As far as I know, this should not be done at all in-service. Are there situations where it is ok to hot-tap chlorinated lines? If not, are there any codes/documents related to hot-tapping chlorinated lines? There may be other impurities in the line which is another thing I am concerned about. Any info on this wold be great!

Please elaborate upon the specific scenario to be considered including operating conditions, temperatures, fluids and materials. Your first document of reference should be API RP 2201.
