Hi,

We facing with the problem of How to inspect in-service flexible hose in oil & gas industry and acceptance criteria in case of hose minor damage eg. Crack at outer rubber cover, slight corroded on metal wire brided etc. My question is;
-Is there any reference Code, guideline or standard available for in-service inspection of flexible hose?
-If no, What is the best pratices to manage the integrity of the hose? (inspection interval, acceptance criteria, inspection/ testing technique)

Thank you
