SR 5.3 SR 5.4

SR 5 B.1 SR.5 B.2

SR 5 B.4

: The average impact values are determined by finding the mean of the values of each group of three specimens from each sample taken separately. The minimum impact value is determined by considering the values of the individual specimens from the sample.

ANNEXURE - II (NEW) MILL QUALIFICATION AND FIRST DAY PRODUCTION TEST Mill Qualification Tests Prior to start of regular production, the following tests shall be carried out, in order to qualify the Mill for regular production of pipes. Sulphide Stress Cracking Test. Manufacturer shall carry out NACE standard tensile test (Method A) for Sulphide Stress Cracking Test in accordance with NACE standard TM-017790. The test shall be carried out at 60, 72,80,90 and 100% SMYS stress levels to produce a curve. Minimum stress for failure after 720 hours shall be atleast 72% of SMYS. Hydrogen Induced Cracking Test. The HIC test shall be carried out in accordance with NACE standard TM-0284, Test Method of Pipeline Steel for Resistance to Stepwise Cracking and as specified in clause 9.3.7 of this specification. The acceptance criteria for crack sensitivity ratio (CSR) shall be 0.00%. Four Point Bend Test Manufacturer shall carry out Four Point Bend Test using NACE solution as specified in clause 9.3.8 of this specification. The acceptance criteria shall be that the specimen shall not have any SSC cracks when examined visually as well as with wet magnetic particle method. Mills shall be considered qualified only subsequent to successful completion of all the tests as mentioned above. Requirement of these tests maybe waived by mutual agreement between Company and the Manufacturer in case Manufacturer possess records of successful performance of this test on a previous supply of line pipes produced by the same method of manufacture, similar chemical composition and grade of steel and subjected to similar heat treatment provided such tests had been performed not earlier than two years prior to this enquiry. Such test certificates duly witnessed and approved by an internationally reputed independent Inspection Agency along with a

description of the tests performed shall be furnished by the Manufacturer in case Manufacturer desires a waiver of this test. FIRST DAY PRODUCTION TESTS Two lengths of completely finished pipes ( in case of only one heat on first day ) or two lengths from the first two heats i.e. one pipe from each heat ( in case of more than one heat on first day ) of first days production shall be selected at random for testing to verify that the manufacturing procedure results in the quality of pipes which are in complete compliance with this specification. The first day production tests shall be carried out on pipes of maximum diameter and minimum wall thickness. The pipes thus tested shall be considered to be the test pipes required per heat or per lot as required in the relevant paragraphs of this specification. These first days production tests shall be repeated upon any change in the manufacturing procedure or any change in the source of raw materials as deemed necessary by Companys Representative. The Manufacturer shall submit to Company a report giving the results of all tests mentioned below. The report shall be agreed and signed by Companys Representative, prior to start of regular production. The various tests to be conducted on each pipe shall be as follows. a) Visual Examination All pipes shall be examined visually for dimensional tolerances and apparent surface defects in accordance with Section 7,9 & 10 respectively of this specification. b) Mechanical Properties The mechanical properties of all pipes shall be tested and shall meet the requirements of the relevant sections of this specification. The following tests shall be conducted : i) ii) Tensile tests shall be conducted on two transverse and two longitudinal base material specimens. At points selected by Companys Representative, three impact test specimens shall be removed from the base material. Specimens shall be tested at 100C

iii) c)

Hardness tests shall be carried out on selected pipes as per requirement of para 9.3.6 of this specification.

CTOD testing shall be carried out in accordance with the requirements of BS 7448, 1991. One set of three specimens shall be taken in transverse direction. The test shall be carried out at 10C. Minimum acceptable critical CTOD value shall be 0.35 MM. Average CTOD value shall be reported. In addition all the data on fatigue pre-cracking front are required. (Crack length at the following positions i.e. both surfaces, 25%, 50% and 75% of the specimen thickness, the minimum and the maximum angle between the crack and the plane of the notch).

d)

Corrosion Tests i) HIC test shall be carried out as per clause 9.3.7 of this specification. ii) Four point bend test shall be carried out as per clause 9.3.8 of this specification.

e)

In addition, all the tests and inspection required to be conducted on each pipe as per this specification shall be conducted on all the pipes selected for testing during first day production test.
