ASME (In Service )weld requirements.

Looking for info on requirements for in service weld testing. I've been tasked with writing this procedure and am searching for all essential and non essential variables and info needed to complete the WPS,PQR, & WPQ.

What code section are you asking about? Without some narrowing, it like asking, "How many star are there in the sky Daddy?"

Generally speaking, with the exception of Section XI, the ASME B&PV Code doesn't address in-service inspections or weld testing. Most ASME codes are for new construction.
