Hi
This is long case but I will really appreciate your expert opinion on this.
I have was going through a vendor PQR with following details:
Applicable standards: API 6A, NACE MR 0175, ASME IX
Material AISI 4130 Quench Tempered, 75k YS, 38mm thick
Process: SMAW
Consumable: E7016 (root) E10018...
Hi
I wish to merge to two PQRs using ASME IX QW 200.4 reference.
PQR1:
GTAW+SAW Process
P1 Gr 2 welded to AISI 4130
Test coupon Thickness: 42mm
PWHT 635 +-10 deg. C for 4 hours
PQR2:
SMAW Process
P1 Gr 1 welded to AISI 4130
Test coupon thickness: 25.4mm
PWHT 635 +-10 Deg. C for 4 hours

Hi Guys,
I have several sizes of square blocks and round bars which I want to use for the production of API 6A Flanges and Blocks. The original MTC does not qualify the material for elevated temperature use. I want to use these raw materials for the manufacturing parts which comply to...
Hi Guys,
We are planning to qualify an Overlay welding procedure for:
AISI 4130
Forged Block cut to 1 inch thk. plate,
75 Ksi min. YS and 95 Ksi min. TS,
C 0.3%, Cr. 0.99%, Mn 0.52% and Mo 0.17%
with following Heat Treatment done by mill: Normalizing - 900 Deg. C, 9 hours, Quenching in Water -...
Guys,
I want to qualify a new ASME IX procedure for Corrosion Resistant Overlay Welding on AISI 4130(75 Ksi Y.S Min / 95 Ksi Min T.S)base metal using E316L-17 electrodes without using PWHT (Stress Relieving).
Question 1:From the equivalents that I have seen, AISI 4130 steels are said to be...
We have a Casing Spool Body of Material AISI 4130 on which we are to conduct welding repairs followed by PWHT.
Our Client just restricted our Welding Procedure for carrying out the repair because it was approved for only 1 cycle PWHT.
The PQR coupon was Post weld heat treated at 630 deg. C for...

Hey guys...
This is with reference to API 650 8.1.2.9
We have a tank with annular plates which are single sided in design but welded without backing strip. (i.e. GTAW Root + SMAW Filling Capping.)
Since the joint is neither a double welded joint nor a single welded joint with backing strip...
Dear All,
Attached is an Approximate RT Spot Calculator for API 650 Tanks for your reference.
Your comments/feedback regarding the document will be highly appreciated.

Hey Guyz!
I have a few queries regarding Storage Tank Bottom Flatness and Foundation Inspection. I hope you'll be able to guide me.
1. Looking at Inspection methods and tolerances for tank dimensions in API 650, there is no direct tolerances defined for bottom flatness. There is a reference...
