Hydrotest of Pressure vessels
Hydrotest of Pressure vessels
(OP)
The client specification for hydrotest of pressure vessels states that"All hydrostatic tests shall be done in presence of AI/companys's authorised representative.
Vessels shall not be previously tested by the vendor.
In what way is the last line above(Vessels shall not be previously tested by the vendor.) to be interpreted?
a)AI/Company rep shall witness the hydrotest of vessels
The vessels shall not be tested in their absence
b) vessels shall not be tested before final hydrotest which prohibits contractor to carry out even internal hydrotest. Only one time the testing is permitted .
I tend to agree with a) .
i would like some inputs on the interpretation.
Thanks in anticipation

No previous hydrotest is to make sure client inspector is there to see if there is any ""repairs"" frantically being made to hold water.
Good practice
