PART I - INTRODUCTION
1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 FOREWORD
The present specification covers clad and lined pipes for onshore and offshore applications.
This specification is applicable to J-lay and S-lay offshore installation methods; in case of reel
laid pipelines, modifications to the present specification may be necessary.
As general guidelines, lined pipes (mechanically bonded) are preferred where the expected
mechanical stresses, e.g. during pipeline lying and/or normal operations, are reasonably low;
clad pipes (metallurgically bonded) provide a better bending resistance than lined pipes
allowing their utilization in a wider range of applications. The COMPANY recommends the
application of clad pipes for offshore risers and for all deep and ultra deep water applications.
1.2 SCOPE
This Specification forms an addendum to API Specification 5LD, Specification for CRA Clad or
Lined Steel Pipe - March 2015 and defines additional requirements covering the manufacture,
inspection, testing, marking, coding and supply of clad and lined pipes. This Specification must
be read in conjunction with API Specification 5LD, Specification for CRA Clad or Lined Steel
Pipe - March 2015.
All pipes shall be produced in accordance with a Manufacturing Procedure Specification that
has been approved by COMPANY and that has been qualified in accordance (Annex D).
For the use in sour service environment, the backing material shall be fully compliant with ISO
15156 / NACE MR0175, unless differently specified by the Company.
1.3 REFERENCES
The reference documents listed below form an integral part of this Specification. Unless
otherwise stipulated, the applicable version of these documents, including relevant appendices

Notes
1. The probe angle may be between 40° and 48°.
2. Part of the completed weld will be austenitic and may have a relatively coarse grained microstructure
in comparison with the backing pipe. Consequently, the performance of conventional ultrasonic
examination using angle beam shear waves may be significantly reduced. Where a very poor signal to
noise ratio is obtained, the use of an angle beam compression wave or creep wave ultrasonic
examination technique should be considered.
The transducer arrangement shall be such that the sound intensity in both the

steel interface;
- Single crystal probes used in the pulse echo mode: the near surface resolution
shall be better than 25% of the wall thickness when testing from the outside
surface of the pipe or 50% of the thickness of the CRA layer when testing from the
inside surface of the pipe. All measurements shall be made at the primary
reference sensitivity level.
In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the inspection procedures and to verify that
the equipment is functioning correctly, it shall be checked against an appropriate
reference standard as described in (Annex I) at least once every four hours and at the
beginning and end of a batch.
If a discrepancy of more than 3 dB is observed, then all of the pipes inspected since the
previous check shall be re-inspected. Proper functioning of the UT equipment and the
linearity of the electronic instrumentation shall be checked at least once every six months
and whenever an alteration is made to the equipment.
c) Automatic Ultrasonic Equipment. In addition to the requirements specified above,

automatic ultrasonic equipment shall incorporate the following:
i) A device that monitors the effectiveness of the coupling.
If a zero degrees compression wave probe is used to monitor coupling, or where a

through transmission technique is used for seamless pipe, it shall be assumed that
loss of coupling has occurred when the sensitivity (echo height) decreases by more
than 10 dB relative to the static calibration.
In the case of SAW pipe, where a through transmission technique is used, it shall be
assumed that loss of coupling has occurred when the signal drops below the
electronic noise plus 10 dB, at the position of the through transmission signal.

shall be activated when loss of coupling occurs.
ii) An automatic paint-spraying device, or equivalent system.
The system shall be activated when the received ultrasonic echo exceeds the preset
acceptance limit and shall operate without any interference from the operator.

recording systems may also be acceptable subject to approval by COMPANY. The
02949.MAT.COR.FUN
Rev. 3 July 2015
reset time for the system shall be less than the time required for the pipe to advance
25 mm in the scanning direction.
iii) In the case of welded pipe, an automatic seam tracking system, or equivalent
subject to approval by COMPANY, for correct positioning of the crystals/probes with
respect to the weld centre-line.
From each pipe under test, an automatic "on-line" record shall be made without operator
intervention. A summary record shall be made for each pipe. This shall include, as a
minimum, the pipe identification number, the time at which the test was carried out and
the examination results; where applicable it shall also include the results of any re-
examinations.
d) Electromagnetic Equipment. EMT methods such as eddy current testing (ECT) and
magnetic flux leakage (MFL) testing may be applied for surface defect and flaw detection
in seamless pipe.
Inspection of the backing pipe shall be carried out by MFL from the outside surface in
accordance with ASTM E570. The CRA layer shall be inspected by ECT from the inside
surface. In all cases, testing shall be performed using automatic equipment and shall
cover the entire surface of the pipe.

length of the untested portion plus a 25 mm overlap of the automatically tested area.
Manual UT shall be carried out in accordance with an approved procedure for manual
ultrasonic examination.
e) NDT Reference Standards. The reference calibration standard shall have the same
nominal diameter and wall thickness as the product being inspected and shall be of
sufficient length to permit calibration of ultrasonic inspection equipment at the speed to
be used in production. The reference standard shall also be of the same material type
and have the same surface finish and be in the same heat treatment condition as the
product to be inspected.
The reference standard shall be free from any discontinuities or other conditions that
could produce indications that might interfere with the detection of the reference
reflectors.
The reference standard shall contain the relevant notches and drilled holes shown in
(Annex I). MANUFACTURER may use a different type of reference reflector from that
shown in (Annex I), provided that he can demonstrate to COMPANY that the examination
is at least as sensitive as that prescribed in this Specification. In such cases,
MANUFACTURER shall obtain approval from COMPANY.
The primary reference sensitivity level shall be adjusted on the following reference
reflectors:

f) Acceptance Limits. For all reference reflectors except for RDH 3.2 mm, the acceptance
sensitivity limit signal shall be equal to the primary reference sensitivity level, i.e. equal
to the height of the signal produced by the reference reflector. For the RDH 3.2 mm
reference reflector, the acceptance limit signal shall be 10 dB below the primary
reference sensitivity level.
Indications exceeding the acceptance limit signal are unacceptable, except for lamination
and disbonding examination, for which all indications exceeding the acceptance
sensitivity limit shall be evaluated in terms of dimensions.
When testing for laminations, any area where one or more discontinuities produce a
continuous total loss of back reflection, accompanied by continuous indications on the
same plane that cannot be encompassed within a 25 mm diameter circle, shall be
unacceptable. By agreement with COMPANY, evaluation of signal equal or exceeding the
above mentioned acceptance sensitivity limit can be based on API 5L / ISO 3183.
When testing for disbondment, both the frequency and extent of any indications shall be
considered. Any indication with an area greater than 30 mm2 shall be unacceptable;
alternative acceptance criteria based on indication dimensions and area may be agreed
with COMPANY. The acceptance limits for the number of indications in any given area of
the plate/pipe shall be in accordance with the Table below:

Annex K
End Load Compensation for Hydrostatic Test Pressures
ADDITIONAL CLAUSE
(By agreement between COMPANY and MANUFACTURER the following method may be used to
determine the hydrostatic test pressure.)
K.1 As a measure to prevent distortion, MANUFACTURER may apply a calculation to

compensate for the forces applied to the pipe end that produce a compressive longitudinal
stress. The calculation in this annex is based on Barlow’s equation modified by a factor
based on the Maximum Shear Theory (see note). In no case shall the gauge pressure for
testing be less than that calculated using Barlow’s equation at 95% of specified minimum
yield strength.
Note: The calculation is an approximation of the effective hoop stress (SE), which is
practical for application under mill pipe testing conditions. Other calculations
provide closer approximations of the effective hoop stress but are complex and
therefore impractical for application.
K.2 The test pressure calculated shall be rounded to the nearest 100kPa.
K.3 The hydrostatic test pressure compensated for pipe end loading shall be calculated
according to the following equation:
SI Unit Equation:
PR ⋅ A R
SE −
AP
P1 = 1000 ⋅
D A
− 1
2 ⋅ t AP
where
A1 = internal cross-sectional area of pipe, mm2,
AP = cross-sectional area of pipe wall, mm2,
AR = cross-sectional area of ram, mm2,
P1 = hydrostatic test pressure in kPa,
PR = internal pressure on end-sealing ram in MPa,
SE = effective hoop stress in MPa equal to a percentage of the specified minimum yield
strength,
D = specified outside diameter, mm,
t = specified wall thickness, mm.
K.4 The above equation may be manipulated algebraically to provide calculation in other terms
appropriate to MANUFACTURER’s testing facility.
K.5 Appropriate techniques for the control of effective hoop stress based on measurements of
internal pipe and ram pressures vary according to hydrotester system design.
MANUFACTURER shall provide a control technique appropriate to his installation.
