1.0 SCOPE
1.1 This procedure covers the methods/techniques of repair for weld defects and
surface defects or imperfection occurring in stainless steel and carbon steel base
metal as well as build-up (buttering) where required during the course of
fabrication work.
1.2 This procedure identifies the minimum requirements in respect of any welding

3.1 Identify the type, size, depth and location of defects detected by NDE, such as
radiographs, UT, MPI or DPT marked up on weld etc. Weld defects covered by
this procedure is limited to slag, porosity, lack of fusion, incomplete penetration
and minor cracks.
3.2 Gouge or grind the defective area to the required depth to remove the defects.
3.3 Upon completion of gouging to bare metal, the gouged surfaces shall be ground
to provide groove geometry that is acceptable for repair welding, as well as for
verification of complete removal of defect by in-house MT or PT as required.
3.4 Prior to depositing the repair weld, the excavated area and surrounding
weld and base metal shall be preheated to 50° C minimum, but not less

originally welded to.
steel material. Only grinding with stainless steel disc will be use.
Note: Only stainless steel power or hand brushes and non-contaminated iron free Grinding disc or
chipping tools shall be used on repair of stainless steel.

5.6 Excess weld shall be ground smoothly and flush with adjacent
surface preserving the same configuration as the 01iginal edge.
5.7 Visual inspection and MPI or DPT as appropriate must be carried out after repair.
6.2 Weld build up shall preferably carried out prior to fit-up for welding, using applicable
approved WPS.
6.3 Preheat the areas for weld build up including surrounding areas to minimum
temperature required by the WPS considering the thickness of the material,
whichever is greater.
6.4 Build-up welding shall be done using low hydrogen electrodes according to
qualified procedures with string bead technique, and preferably in flat or
horizontal position.
6.5 Where necessary, datum point shall be punched on base metal for measuring the
build-up weld thickness. The weld built-up area shall be subjected to DPT or MPI
as appropriated detection prior to fit-up for welding.
