I dont want to be anywhere near you(r plant).
RE: HYDROTEST,CHARPY and other TESTS Acording ASME..........
API 5L X60M is an USA standart of material so to be tested with ASME and from EN we took the loads to calculate knowing that EN and ASME have their equivalent grades of steel.
but my answer was which tests are mandatory for each pipe length acording ASME.
Anyway thank you.
RE: HYDROTEST,CHARPY and other TESTS Acording ASME..........
Anyway, mixing up codes, which is what I understand from your post, is not a good thing.
a) What is your design code?
That code will dictate the testing requirements. In general, leak testing (i.e. hydrotest) is mandatory. Charpy testing only when your design code tells you to. Charpy can be done on weld material, base material or both. And it can also be a welding procedure requirement.
b) Does CE marking apply? I.e. PED 97/23/EC
Answer both a and b and we may be of help.
