API-650: minimum temp? 1

[clp]

Is there a minimum temp restriction with API-650?

There is a minimum temperature permitted for every grade of steel material listed in API-650. The limit is based on thickness, chemistry, heat treatment, supply condition and possibly impact testing. It's a simple question with complicated answers. Did you have something more specific in mind?
