Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

ISO 11961 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 67, Materials, equipment and offshore structures for petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries, Subcommittee SC 5, Casing, tubing and drill pipe.

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 11961:1996), which has been extensively technically revised.

It is the intention of ISO/TC 67 that either this edition or the previous edition of ISO 11961 be applicable, at the option of the purchaser (as defined in 4.1.31), for a period of six months from the first day of the calendar quarter immediately following the date of publication of this edition, after which period the previous edition will no longer be applicable.

Introduction

This International Standard is based on API Spec 5D and API Spec 7.

Users of this International Standard should be aware that further or differing requirements may be needed for individual applications. This International Standard is not intended to inhibit a vendor from offering, or the purchaser from accepting, alternative equipment or engineering solutions for the individual application. This may be particularly applicable where there is innovative or developing technology. Where an alternative is offered, the vendor should identify any variations from this International Standard and provide details.

This International Standard includes provisions of various natures. These are identified by the use of certain verbal forms:

a) SHALL is used to indicate that a provision is MANDATORY;

b) SHOULD is used to indicate that a provision is not mandatory, but RECOMMENDED as good practice;

c) MAY is used to indicate that a provision is OPTIONAL.

Petroleum and natural gas industries — Steel drill pipe

1 Scope

This International Standard specifies the technical delivery conditions for steel drill-pipes with upset pipe-body ends and weld-on tool joints for use in drilling and production operations in petroleum and natural gas industries for three product specification levels (PSL-1, PSL-2 and PSL-3). The requirements for PSL-1 form the basis of this International Standard. The requirements that define different levels of standard technical requirements for PSL-2 and PSL-3 are in Annex G.

This International Standard covers the following grades of drill-pipe:

grade E drill-pipe;

high-strength grades of drill-pipe, grades X, G and S.

A typical drill-pipe configuration is given, showing main elements and lengths (see Figure B.1). The main dimensions and masses of the grades of drill-pipe are given in both SI units (see Table A.1) and in USC units (see Table C.1).

This International Standard can also be used for drill-pipe with tool joints not specified by ISO or API standards.

By agreement between purchaser and manufacturer, this International Standard can also be applied to other drill-pipe body and/or tool-joint dimensions. This International Standard lists supplementary requirements that can optionally be agreed between purchaser and manufacturer, for testing, performance verification and non-destructive examination (see Annex E).

This International Standard does not consider performance properties.

NOTE 1 In this International Standard, drill-pipe is designated by label 1, label 2, grade of material (E, X, G and S), upset type and type of rotary shouldered connection. Designations are used for the purpose of identification in ordering.

NOTE 2 Reference can be made to ISO 10424-2 or API Spec 7-2 for the detailed requirements for the threading of drill-pipe tool joints.

NOTE 3 Reference can be made to API RP 7G for the performance properties of the drill-pipe.

2 Conformance

2.1 Dual citing of normative references

In the interests of world-wide application of this International Standard, Technical Committee ISO/TC 67 has decided, after detailed technical analysis, that certain of the normative documents listed in Clause 3 and prepared by ISO/TC 67 or another ISO Technical Committee are interchangeable in the context of the relevant requirement with the relevant document prepared by the American Petroleum Institute (API), the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). These latter documents are cited in the running text following the ISO reference and preceded by ―or‖, for example ―ISO XXXX or API YYYY‖. Application of an alternative normative document cited in this manner will lead to technical results different from the use of the preceding ISO reference. However, both results are acceptable and these documents are thus considered interchangeable in practice.

2.2 Units of measurement

In this International Standard, data are expressed in both the International System (SI) of units and the United States Customary (USC) system of units. Separate tables for data expressed in SI units and USC units are in Annex A and Annex C, respectively. Figures are in Annex B and express data in both SI and USC units. For a specific order item, it is intended that only one system of units be used, without combining data expressed in the other system.

Products manufactured to specifications expressed in either of these unit systems shall be considered equivalent and totally interchangeable. Consequently, compliance with the requirements of this International Standard as expressed in one system provides compliance with requirements expressed in the other system.

For data expressed in the SI system, a comma is used as the decimal separator and a space as the thousands separator. For data expressed in the USC system, a dot (on the line) is used as the decimal separator and a space as the thousands separator.

In the text, data in SI units are followed by data in USC units in brackets.

NOTE The procedures used to convert from USC units to SI units are given in informative Annex F.

Evaluations of indications shall be performed by level I certified inspectors under the supervision of level II or level III certified inspectors, or by level II or level III certified inspectors. Evaluation of indications shall be performed in accordance with written procedures.

When no imperfection is found in the area of the original indication and there is no explanation for the indication, then the pipe shall be rejected or, at the manufacturer’s option, re-inspected over the full length either using the same inspection method or using ultrasonic inspection methods. At the manufacturer’s option, the inspection equipment shall be adjusted either to the same sensitivity level as that used to perform the original inspection or to a reduced sensitivity that meets the specified requirements.

For the evaluation of an indicated imperfection, the depth shall be measured to determine whether it is a defect in accordance with 7.17. This measurement shall be performed as follows.

a) The imperfection’s depth may be measured using a mechanical measuring device (for instance, pit gauge, callipers, etc.). Removal of material by grinding or other means to facilitate measurement shall not reduce the remaining wall below the minimum permissible wall thickness. Abrupt changes in wall thickness caused by probe grinding shall be removed in accordance with 7.19.10.

b) The imperfection’s depth may be measured by ultrasonic technique(s) (time- and/or amplitude-based, or other capable techniques). Verification of the ultrasonic technique(s) shall be documented and shall show the capability to detect imperfections with the size stated in 7.17, or larger.

Procedures used to convert from USC units to SI units for drill-pipe

F.1 Background

The following procedures were adopted in this International Standard for converting units from the United States Customary (USC) system into the Système Internationale (SI).

F.2 General

F.2.1 Rounding

The last retained digit in a number was unchanged when the next digit was less than 5 and raised when it was greater than 5.

When the digit following the last retained digit was exactly 5 followed by all zeros, the last retained digit was unchanged if it was even, or was raised if it was odd.

F.2.2 Fractions

A fraction or a number with a fraction in USC units were converted to the full decimal equivalent in USC units without rounding. The full decimal equivalent in USC units were then converted to an SI value, Nm, expressed in millimetres, using Equation (F.1):

Nm 25,4 N (F.1)

where N is the full decimal equivalent, expressed in inches, of a USC fraction or a number with a fraction that has not been rounded.

The converted SI value, in millimetres, for the equivalent of a USC fraction or a number with a fraction is rounded to the appropriate number of places for the application.

F.2.3 Tolerances

Tolerances were calculated using Equation (F.1).

The USC value for the tolerance, except in the case of angular misalignment, was converted to the SI value based on the appropriate conversion factor.

The converted SI value for the tolerance, except in the case of angular misalignment, was rounded to the same number of decimal places as the SI value to which it was applicable.

G.3 Through-wall hardness testing of tool joints

G.3.1 Procedures

Hardness tests shall be performed at room temperature in accordance with ISO 6506-1 or ASTM E10 for Brinell hardness tests or ISO 6508-1 or in accordance with ASTM E18 for Rockwell hardness tests.

When testing using the Brinell method, one impression shall be made at each position OD, ID, and mid-wall(s).

When testing using the Rockwell method, three hardness impressions shall be made at each location OD, ID, and mid-wall(s) and averaged to give the mean hardness number at each location. The results of each hardness impression and the averages shall be reported to the nearest 0,1 HRC unit.

G.3.2 Hardness-test locations

Hardness testing of tool joints shall be carried out on a radial cross-section, taken at least one radius away from the end of the tool joint or blank (see Figure B.14). These tests may be made at the thickest point in the tool-joint material at the option of the manufacturer or when specified on the purchase agreement.

All four quadrants shall be tested. Testing on blocks is recommended rather than testing as a full ring to ensure ring overhang does not adversely affect the hardness test results.

When Rockwell testing is used, the first impression in each quadrant or test block shall be made near the centre of the test specimen to seat the test specimen. The result of this impression shall be ignored.

G.3.3 Hardness re-tests

When testing using the Brinell method, if any quadrant fails to meet the requirements, the lot shall be rejected. Re-testing is allowed as in 8.9.5.

When testing using the Rockwell method, if the difference between the maximum mean hardness number and the minimum mean hardness is greater than 6,0 HRC units, the lot shall be rejected. Before re-testing, the test surface shall be re-ground. If the difference between re-test mean hardness numbers does not exceed 6,0 HRC units, the lot shall be accepted.

If any re-test exceeds the maximum hardness variation, the lot of tool joints represented by the test piece shall be rejected. Rejected lots may be re-heat-treated as new lots.

G.4 Markings

Products meeting the PSL-2 requirements shall be marked L2 in the location specified in Clauses 6, 7 and 8, as applicable.

Products meeting the PSL-3 requirements shall be marked L3 in the location specified in Clauses 6, 7 and 8, as applicable.

Annex H (informative)

Use of the API Monogram by Licensees

H.1 Scope

The API Monogram Program allows an API Licensee to apply the API Monogram to products. The API Monogram Program delivers significant value to the international oil and gas industry by linking the verification of an organization's quality management system with the demonstrated ability to meet specific product specification requirements. The use of the Monogram on products constitutes a representation and warranty by the Licensee to purchasers of the products that, on the date indicated, the products were produced in accordance with a verified quality management system and in accordance with an API product specification.

When used in conjunction with the requirements of the API License Agreement, API Q1, in its entirety, defines the requirements for those organizations who wish to voluntarily obtain an API license to provide API monogrammed products in accordance with an API product specification.

API Monogram Program licenses are issued only after an on-site audit has verified that the Licensee conforms to the requirements described in API Q1 in total, and the requirements of an API product specification. Customers/users are requested to report to API all problems with API monogrammed products. The effectiveness of the API Monogram Program can be strengthened by customers/users reporting problems encountered with API monogrammed products.

9 TOLERANCES ON THICKNESS AND MASS

9.1 The following manufacturing tolerances shall bepermitted on the tubes and sockets:

a) Thickness:

1) Welded tubes:Light tubes + not limited

– 8 percentMedium and heavy + not limitedtubes – 10 percent

2) Seamless tubes + not limited– 12.5 percent

b) Mass:

1) Single tube (light + 10 percentseries) – 8 percent

2) Single tube (medium ± 10 percentand heavy series)

3) For quantities per load + 7.5 percentof 10 tonnes, Min – 5 percent(light series)

4) For quantities per load ± 7.5 percentof 10 tonnes, Min(medium and heavyseries)

NOTE — For the purpose of minimum weighment of 10tonnes lot, the weighment may be done in convenient lotsat the option of the manufacturer.

10 JOINTS

10.1 All screwed tubes shall be supplied with pipethreads conforming to IS 554. Gauging in accordancewith IS 8999 shall be considered as an adequate testfor conformity of threads of IS 554.

10.1.1 Unless specified otherwise, tubes shall besupplied screwed with taper threads and fitted with onesocket having parallel thread. The socket shall conformto all requirements (except 6.4) of IS 1239 (Part 2).

10.1.1.1 In case of light tubes the application of taperpipe threads may be modified by permitting the outsidediameter of the tubes to be within the limits shown in col2 and 3 of Table 3. Where the tube approaches the lowerlimit of outside diameter, some incomplete threads(perfect at root and imperfect at the crest) may be expectedfrom and beyond the gauge plane. Such incompletethreads, shall not be regarded as justification for rejectionof the tubes. Also the minimum length of threads in lighttubes shall be 80 percent of that specified in IS 554.

10.2 The plain end pipes shall be supplied with squarecut. However, bevel end may also be supplied on mutualagreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer(see Fig. 1).

NOTES

1 For welded tubes, the strip tensile test specimen shall notcontain the weld.

2 For galvanized tubes, zinc coating may be removed bystripping prior to tensile test.

14.1.1 The elongation percent on a gauge length of

o5.65 ,S where So is the original cross-sectional area

of the test specimen, shall be as follows:

Nominal Bore ElongationPercent, Min

a) For steam services for all sizes 20

b) For other services:

1) Up to and including 25 mm 12

2) Over 25 mm up to and 20

including 150 mm

14.2 Bend Test on Tubes Up to and Including 50 mmNominal Bore

When tested in accordance with IS 2329 the tubes shallbe capable of withstanding the bend test withoutshowing any signs of fracture or failure. Welded tubesshall be bent with the weld at 90° to the plane of bending.The tubes shall not be filled for this test.

14.2.1 Ungalvanized tubes shall be capable of beingbent cold without cracking through 180° round a formerhaving a radius at the bottom of groove in the plane ofbending, equal to at least six times the outside diameterof the tube.

14.2.2 Galvanized tubes shall be capable of being bentcold, without cracking of the steel, through 90° rounda former having a radius at the bottom of the grooveequal to at least eight times the outside diameter of thetubes.

14.3 Flattening Test on Tubes Above 50 mm NominalBore

Rings not less than 40 mm in length cut from the endsof the selected tubes shall be flattened cold betweenparallel plates with the weld, if any at 90° (point ofmaximum bending) in accordance with IS 2328. Noopening shall occur by fracture in the weld area untilthe distance between the plates is less than 75 percentof the original outside diameter of the tube and nocracks or breaks in the metal elsewhere than in the weldshall occur until the distance between the plates is lessthan 60 percent of the original outside diameter.

NOTE — Slight premature cracking at the edges would notbe deemed to affect compliance with this standard.

14.3.1 The test rings may have the inner and outeredges rounded.

at the commencement and at the end of each workingperiod and at intervals not exceeding 2 h.

B-3.3 If on checking during production testing thereference standard defect is not detected even afterchanging the sensitivity by 2dB to allow for equipmentdrift, the equipment shall be recalibrated. Followingrecalibration, all tubes tested since the previous checkshall be retested, unless recordings from individuallyidentified tubes are available that permit classificationof those tubes into ‘suspect’ and ‘acceptable’ categories.

B-4 TEST PROCEDURE

Pass the tube to be inspected through the test unit atthe appropriate production speed, maintaining theproduction speed constant with ±10 percent underconditions identical to those used in the calibration ofthe equipment.

NOTE — Identical conditions include all instrument setting,mechanical motion, positioning of the encircling coil(s) inrelation to the tube and any other factor that affect thevalidity of the technique.

B-5 ACCEPTANCE

B-5.1 Any tube producing a signal lower than thesignals from the standard shall be deemed to havepassed this test.

B-5.2 Since NDT systems are known to be sensitive tosome features which do not cause leak, the tube rejectedby NDT may be retested hydraulically and whatevertubes pass the hydraulic test shall be accepted.

B-5.3 The tubes rejected in (see B-5.1) may also beretested off-line NDT equipment. Those which do notproduce reject level signals shall be accepted. Othersmay be accepted after cropping off the portionproducing reject level signals.

Due consideration has also been given to international coordination among the standards prevailingin different countries. Assistance has been derived from the following publications:

ISO 65 : 1981 Carbon steel tubes suitable for screwing in accordance with ISO International Organizationfor Standardization

BS 1387 : 1985 Screwed and socketed steel tubes and tubulars and for plain end steel tubes suitable forwelding or for screwing to BS 21 : 1985 ‘Pipe threads for tubs and fitting where pressure-tightjoints are made on the threads’

This standard contains clauses 6.4, 7.1, 7.1.1, 11.2, 16.2 and 17.3 which call for an agreement between themanufacturer and the purchaser.

The other part of this standard is IS 1239 (Part 2) : 1992 ‘Specification for mild steel tubes, tubulars and otherwrought steel fittings: Part 2 Mild steel socket, tubulars and other wrought steel pipe fittings ( fourth revision )’.

For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value,observed or calculated, expressing the results of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance withIS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised )’. The number of significant places retained in therounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

ERW Steel Pipes and Tubes

Based on the end user customer's requirement, ERW (electric resistance welded) steel pipes and tubes are available in various qualities, wall thicknesses, and diameters of the finished pipes. While manufacturing ERW steel pipes, only high-quality, continuous-cast, fully killed, control-rolled, fine-grain, low-carbon steel is used. High performance ERW steel pipes and tubes possess high strength corrosion resistance, high deformability, high strength and high toughness. Before reaching the market place, ERW steel tubes and pipes are routed through numerous tests including a hydro-test, an ultrasonic weld inspection, bevel check, micrometer check, straightness evaluation, and ring gouge to ensure it’s quality. These pipes are used in fencing, line pipes, oil country tubulars, scaffolding, water and gas conveyance, structural, engineering purpose. There has been a tremendous increase in the production of ERW steel tubes due to growing demand in oil & gas industry, infrastructure and automobile usages.

Black Steel Pipes and Tubes

When steel pipe is forged, a black oxide scale forms on its surface to give it the finish which is seen on this type of pipe. Because steel is subject to rust and corrosion, the factory also coats it with protective oil. Those black steel are used for manufacturing pipe and tube, which will not rust for a long time and requires very little maintenance. It is sold in standard 21-foot lengths TBE. Black steel pipes and tubes are cut and threaded to fit the job. Fittings for this type of pipe are of black malleable (soft) cast iron. They connect by screwing onto the threaded pipe, after applying a small amount of pipe joint compound on the threads. Larger diameter pipe is welded rather than threaded. Black steel pipe is cut either with a heavy-duty tube cutter or cutoff saw or by hacksaw.

9 TOLERANCES ON THICKNESS AND MASS

9.1 The following manufacturing tolerances shall bepermitted on the tubes and sockets:

a) Thickness:

1) Welded tubes:Light tubes + not limited

– 8 percentMedium and heavy + not limitedtubes – 10 percent

2) Seamless tubes + not limited– 12.5 percent

b) Mass:

1) Single tube (light + 10 percentseries) – 8 percent

2) Single tube (medium ± 10 percentand heavy series)

3) For quantities per load + 7.5 percentof 10 tonnes, Min – 5 percent(light series)

4) For quantities per load ± 7.5 percentof 10 tonnes, Min(medium and heavyseries)

NOTE — For the purpose of minimum weighment of 10tonnes lot, the weighment may be done in convenient lotsat the option of the manufacturer.

10 JOINTS

10.1 All screwed tubes shall be supplied with pipethreads conforming to IS 554. Gauging in accordancewith IS 8999 shall be considered as an adequate testfor conformity of threads of IS 554.

10.1.1 Unless specified otherwise, tubes shall besupplied screwed with taper threads and fitted with onesocket having parallel thread. The socket shall conformto all requirements (except 6.4) of IS 1239 (Part 2).

10.1.1.1 In case of light tubes the application of taperpipe threads may be modified by permitting the outsidediameter of the tubes to be within the limits shown in col2 and 3 of Table 3. Where the tube approaches the lowerlimit of outside diameter, some incomplete threads(perfect at root and imperfect at the crest) may be expectedfrom and beyond the gauge plane. Such incompletethreads, shall not be regarded as justification for rejectionof the tubes. Also the minimum length of threads in lighttubes shall be 80 percent of that specified in IS 554.

10.2 The plain end pipes shall be supplied with squarecut. However, bevel end may also be supplied on mutualagreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer(see Fig. 1).

NOTES

1 For welded tubes, the strip tensile test specimen shall notcontain the weld.

2 For galvanized tubes, zinc coating may be removed bystripping prior to tensile test.

14.1.1 The elongation percent on a gauge length of

o5.65 ,S where So is the original cross-sectional area

of the test specimen, shall be as follows:

Nominal Bore ElongationPercent, Min

a) For steam services for all sizes 20

b) For other services:

1) Up to and including 25 mm 12

2) Over 25 mm up to and 20

including 150 mm

14.2 Bend Test on Tubes Up to and Including 50 mmNominal Bore

When tested in accordance with IS 2329 the tubes shallbe capable of withstanding the bend test withoutshowing any signs of fracture or failure. Welded tubesshall be bent with the weld at 90° to the plane of bending.The tubes shall not be filled for this test.

14.2.1 Ungalvanized tubes shall be capable of beingbent cold without cracking through 180° round a formerhaving a radius at the bottom of groove in the plane ofbending, equal to at least six times the outside diameterof the tube.

14.2.2 Galvanized tubes shall be capable of being bentcold, without cracking of the steel, through 90° rounda former having a radius at the bottom of the grooveequal to at least eight times the outside diameter of thetubes.

14.3 Flattening Test on Tubes Above 50 mm NominalBore

Rings not less than 40 mm in length cut from the endsof the selected tubes shall be flattened cold betweenparallel plates with the weld, if any at 90° (point ofmaximum bending) in accordance with IS 2328. Noopening shall occur by fracture in the weld area untilthe distance between the plates is less than 75 percentof the original outside diameter of the tube and nocracks or breaks in the metal elsewhere than in the weldshall occur until the distance between the plates is lessthan 60 percent of the original outside diameter.

NOTE — Slight premature cracking at the edges would notbe deemed to affect compliance with this standard.

14.3.1 The test rings may have the inner and outeredges rounded.

at the commencement and at the end of each workingperiod and at intervals not exceeding 2 h.

B-3.3 If on checking during production testing thereference standard defect is not detected even afterchanging the sensitivity by 2dB to allow for equipmentdrift, the equipment shall be recalibrated. Followingrecalibration, all tubes tested since the previous checkshall be retested, unless recordings from individuallyidentified tubes are available that permit classificationof those tubes into ‘suspect’ and ‘acceptable’ categories.

B-4 TEST PROCEDURE

Pass the tube to be inspected through the test unit atthe appropriate production speed, maintaining theproduction speed constant with ±10 percent underconditions identical to those used in the calibration ofthe equipment.

NOTE — Identical conditions include all instrument setting,mechanical motion, positioning of the encircling coil(s) inrelation to the tube and any other factor that affect thevalidity of the technique.

B-5 ACCEPTANCE

B-5.1 Any tube producing a signal lower than thesignals from the standard shall be deemed to havepassed this test.

B-5.2 Since NDT systems are known to be sensitive tosome features which do not cause leak, the tube rejectedby NDT may be retested hydraulically and whatevertubes pass the hydraulic test shall be accepted.

B-5.3 The tubes rejected in (see B-5.1) may also beretested off-line NDT equipment. Those which do notproduce reject level signals shall be accepted. Othersmay be accepted after cropping off the portionproducing reject level signals.

In this country, the regulations governing the use of tubes for conveying steam are laid down in the Indian BoilerRegulations published by the Central Boilers Board.

While formulating this standard, due consideration has been given to the trade practices followed in the countryin this field. Due consideration has also been given to international coordination among the standards prevailingin different countries. Assistance has been derived from the following publications:

ISO 65 : 1981 Carbon steel tubes suitable for screwing in accordance with ISO International Organizationfor Standardization

BS 1387 : 1985 Screwed and socketed steel tubes and tubulars and for plain end steel tubes suitable forwelding or for screwing to BS 21 : 1985 ‘Pipe threads for tubs and fitting where pressure-tightjoints are made on the threads’

This standard contains clauses 6.4, 7.1, 7.1.1, 11.2, 16.2 and 17.3 which call for an agreement between themanufacturer and the purchaser.

The other part of this standard is IS 1239 (Part 2) : 1992 ‘Specification for mild steel tubes, tubulars and otherwrought steel fittings: Part 2 Mild steel socket, tubulars and other wrought steel pipe fittings ( fourth revision )’.

For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value,observed or calculated, expressing the results of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance withIS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised )’. The number of significant places retained in therounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

14.3.1 The reference standards defined in 14.4 through 14.6 are convenient standards for calibration of nondestructive testing equipment. The dimensions of such standards are not to be construed as the minimum sizes of impeIiections detectable by such equipment.

14.3.2 The ultrasonic testing referred to in this specification is capable of detecting the presence and location of significant longitudinally or circumferentially oriented imperfections: however, different techniques need to be employed for the detection of such differently oriented impeIiections. Ultrasonic testing is not necessarily capable of detecting short, deep imperfections.

14.3.3 The eddy current examination referenced in this specification has the capability of detecting significant imper­fections, especially of the short abrupt type.

14.3.4 The flux leakage examination referred to in this specification is capable of detecting the presence and location of significant longitudinally or transversely oriented impeIiec­tions: however, different techniques need to be employed for the detection of such differently oriented impeIiections.

14.3.5 The hydrostatic test referred to in Section 13 has the capability of finding defects of a size permitting the test fluid to leak through the tube wall and may be either visually seen or detected by a loss of pressure. Hydrostatic testing is not necessarily capable of detecting very tight, through-the-wall impeIiections or impeIiections that extend an appreciable distance into the wall without complete penetration.

14.3.6 A purchaser interested in ascertaining the nature (type, size, location, and orientation) of discontinuities that can be detected in the specific applications of these examinations is directed to discuss this with the manufacturer of the tubular product.

14.4 For ultrasonic testing, the calibration reference notches shall be, at the option of the producer, anyone of the three common notch shapes shown in Practice E 213. The depth of notch shall not exceed 12V2 % of the specified wall thickness of the pipe or 0.004 in. [0.1 mm], whichever is greater.

14.5 For eddy current testing, the calibration pipe shall contain, at the option of the producer, anyone of the following discontinuities to establish a minimum. sensitivity level for rejection:

14.5.1 Drilled Hole-The calibration pipe shall contain depending upon the pipe diameter three holes spaced 120° apart or four holes spaced 90° apart and sufficiently separated longitudinally to ensure separately distinguishable responses. The holes shall be drilled radially and completely through the pipe wall, care being taken to avoid distortion of the pipe while drilling. Depending upon the pipe diameter the calibration pipe shall contain the following hole:

[6-mm] diameter, a notch shall be filed or milled tangential to the surface and transverse to the longitu­dinal axis of the pipe. The notch shall have· a depth not exceeding 12 112 % of the specified wall thickness of the pipe or 0.004 in. [0.1 mm], whichever is greater.

14.5.3 Longitudinal Notch-A notch 0.031 in. [0.8 mm] or less in width shall be machined in a radial plane parallel to the tube axis on the outside suIiace of the pipe, to have a depth not exceeding 12 112 % of the specified wall thickness of the tube or 0.004 in. [0.1 mm], whichever is greater. The length of the notch shall be compatible with the testing method.

14.5.4 Compatibility-The discontinuity in the calibration pipe shall be compatible with the testing equipment and the method being used.

14.6 For flux leakage testing, the longitudinal calibration reference notches shall be straight-sided notches machined in a radial plane parallel to the pipe axis. For wall thicknesses under V2 in. [12.7 mm], outside and inside notches shall be used; for wall thicknesses equal to and above V2 in. [12.7 mm], only an outside notch shall be used. Notch depth shall not exceed 121/2 % of the specified wall thickness, or 0.004 in. [0.1 mm],

whichever is greater. Notch length shall not exceed 1 in. [25 mm], and the width shall not exceed the depth. Outside diameter and inside diameter notches shall be located suffi­ciently apart to allow separation and identification of the signals.

14.7 Pipe containing one or more impeIiections that pro­duce a signal equal to or greater than the signal produced by the calibration standard shall be rejected or the area producing the signal shall be reexamined.

14.7.1 Test signals produced by impeIiections which cannot be identified, or produced by cracks or crack-like impeIiections shall result in rejection of the pipe, unless it is repaired and retested. To be accepted, the pipe must pass the same specifi­cation test to which it was originally subjected, provided that the remaining wall thickness is not decreased below that permitted by this specification. The OD at the point of grinding may be reduced by the amount so reduced.

14.7.2 Test signals produced by visual impeIiections such as those listed below may be evaluated in accordance with the provisions of Section 18:

ASTM A333: Standard Specification for Seamlessand Welded Steel Pipe for Low-TemperatureService

~~l~ Designation: A 333/A 333M - 94

Standard Specification for SeC;lmless and Welded Steel Pipe for Low-Temperature Service1

This standard is issued under the fixed designation A 333/ A 333M; the number immediately following the designatiort indicates the year of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscript epsilon (E) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.

1. Scope 1.1 This specification2 covers nominal (average) wall

seamless and welded carbon and alloy steel pipe intended for use at low temperatures. Several grades of ferritic steel are included as listed in Table 1. Some product sizes may not be available under this specification because heavier wall thick­nesses have an adverse affect on low-temperature impact properties.

1.2 Supplementary Requirement S 1 of an optional nature is provided. This shall apply only when specified by the purchaser.

1.3 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system must be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification. The inch-pound units shall apply unless the .oM" designation of this specification is specified in the order.

NOTE I-The dimensionless designator NPS (nominal pipe size) has been substituted in this standard for such traditional terms as "nominal diameter," "size," and "nominal size."

The values stated in eachsystem may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each systemshall be used independently of the other. Combining valuesfrom the two systems may result in non-conformance with thestandard. The inch-pound units shall apply unless the “M”designation of this specification is specified in the order.

NOTE 2—The dimensionless designator NPS (nominal pipe size) hasbeen substituted in this standard for such traditional terms as “nominaldiameter,” “size,” and “nominal size.”

5.3.1 All pipe shall be reheated for heat treatment and heattreated in accordance with the requirements ofTable 2.

NOTE 3—It is recommended that the temperature for tempering shouldbe at least 100 °F [50 °C] above the intended service temperature;consequently, the purchaser should advise the manufacturer if the servicetemperature is to be over 1100 °F [600 °C].

NOTE 4—Certain of the ferritic steels covered by this specification willharden if cooled rapidly from above their critical temperature. Some willair harden, that is, become hardened to an undesirable degree when cooledin air from high temperatures. Therefore, operations involving heatingsuch steels above their critical temperatures, such as welding, flanging,and hot bending, should be followed by suitable heat treatment.

7.2 Surface imperfections that penetrate more than 121⁄2 %of the nominal wall thickness or encroach on the minimumwall thickness shall be considered defects. Pipe with suchdefects shall be given one of the following dispositions:

7.2.1 The defect may be removed by grinding provided thatthe remaining wall thickness is within specified limits.

7.2.2 Repaired in accordance with the repair welding pro-visions of7.6.

7.2.3 The section of pipe containing the defect may be cutoff within the limits of requirements on length.

7.2.4 Rejected.7.3 To provide a workmanlike finish and basis for evaluat-

ing conformance with7.2, the pipe manufacturer shall removeby grinding the following:

7.3.1 Mechanical marks, abrasions (seeNote 5) and pits,any of which imperfections are deeper than1⁄16 in. [1.6 mm].

7.3.2 Visual imperfections, commonly referred to as scabs,seams, laps, tears, or slivers, found by exploration in accor-dance with7.1 to be deeper than 5 % of the nominal wallthickness.

7.4 At the purchaser’s discretion, pipe shall be subject torejection if surface imperfections acceptable under7.2 are notscattered, but appear over a large area in excess of what isconsidered a workmanlike finish. Disposition of such pipe shallbe a matter of agreement between the manufacturer and thepurchaser.

7.5 When imperfections or defects are removed by grinding,a smooth curved surface shall be maintained, and the wallthickness shall not be decreased below that permitted by thisspecification. The outside diameter at the point of grinding maybe reduced by the amount so removed.

7.5.1 Wall thickness measurements shall be made with amechanical caliper or with a properly calibrated nondestructivetesting device of appropriate accuracy. In case of dispute, themeasurement determined by use of the mechanical caliper shallgovern.

7.6.2 All repair welds in P92, P911, and P122, shall be madeusing welding consumables meeting the chemical requirementsfor the grade inTable 1.

7.6.3 After weld repair, Grades P23, P91, P92, and P122shall be heat treated at 1350-1470 ºF [730-800 ºC].

7.6.4 After weld repair, Grade P911 shall be heat treated at1365-1435 ºF [740-780 ºC].

7.6.5 After weld repair, Grade P24 shall be heat treated at1350-1420 °F [730-770 °C].

7.7 The finished pipe shall be reasonably straight.

8. Product Analysis

8.1 At the request of the purchaser, an analysis of two pipesfrom each lot as defined hereafter shall be made by themanufacturer. A lot is all pipe of the same nominal size andwall thickness (schedule) which is produced from the sameheat of steel and shall be limited as follows:

NPS Designator Maximum Number ofLengths in a Lot

Under 2 4002 to 5 2006 and over 100

8.2 The results of these analyses shall be reported to thepurchaser or the purchaser’s representative, and shall conformto the requirements specified inTable 1.

8.3 For grade P 91 the carbon content may vary for theproduct analysis by −0.01 % and +0.02 % from the specifiedrange as perTable 1.

--`,,```,,,,````-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---

wall thickness lies between two values above, the minimumelongation value is determined by the following formula:

Direction of Test EquationB

Longitudinal, all grades except P23, P91,P92, P122, and P911

E = 48t + 15.00[E = 1.87t + 15.00]

Transverse, all grades except P23, P91,P92, P122, and P911

E = 32t + 10.00[E = 1.25t + 10.00]

The testsystem settings may be changed, or the transducer(s), coil(s) orsensor(s) adjusted, and the unit restandardized, but all pipetested since the last acceptable standardization shall be re-tested.

13.2.3 Pipes producing a signal equal to or greater than thesignal produced by the reference standard shall be subject toone of the following four dispositions:

13.2.3.1 The pipes may be rejected without further exami-nation, at the discretion of the manufacturer.

13.2.3.2 The pipes shall be rejected if the test signal wasproduced by imperfections which cannot be identified, or wasproduced by cracks or crack-like imperfections.

13.2.3.3 The pipes may be repaired by grinding (in accor-dance with7.2.1), welding (in accordance with7.6) or section-ing (in accordance with7.2.3). To be accepted, a repaired pipemust pass the same nondestructive examination by which itwas rejected, and it must meet the remaining wall thicknessrequirements of this specification.

13.2.3.4 If the test signals were produced by visual imper-fections such as those listed below, the pipes may be evaluatedin accordance with the provisions of Section7:

(a) Scratches,(b) Surface roughness,(c) Dings,(d) Straightener marks,(e) Cutting chips,(f) Steel die stamps,(g) Stop marks, or(h) Pipe reducer ripple.

14.3.5 The Brinell test shall be made, at the option of themanufacturer, on the outside of the pipe near the end, on theoutside of a specimen cut from the pipe, or on the wall crosssection of a specimen cut from the pipe. This test shall be madeso that the center of the impression to the edge of the specimenis at least 2.5 times the diameter of the impression.

14.3.6 The Rockwell hardness test shall, at the option of themanufacturer, be made on the inside surface, on the wall crosssection, or on a flat of the outside surface.

14.3.7 For pipe of Grades P24, P91, P92, P122, P911, andP36, Brinell, Vickers, or Rockwell hardness tests shall be madeon a specimen from each lot.

14.4 Bend Test:14.4.1 For pipe whose diameter exceeds NPS 25 and whose

diameter to wall thickness ratio is 7.0 or less shall be subjectedto the bend test instead of the flattening test. Other pipe whosediameter equals or exceeds NPS 10 may be given the bend testin place of the flattening test subject to the approval of thepurchaser.

14.4.2 The bend test specimens shall be bent at roomtemperature through 180° without cracking on the outside ofthe bent portion. The inside diameter of the bend shall be 1 in.[25 mm].

SUPPLEMENTARY REQUIREMENTS

One or more of the following supplementary requirements shall apply only when specified in thepurchase order. The purchaser may specify a different frequency of test or analysis than is providedin the supplementary requirement. Subject to agreement between the purchaser and manufacturer,retest and retreatment provisions of these supplementary requirements may also be modified.

S1. Product Analysis

S1.1 Product analysis shall be made on each length of pipe.Individual lengths failing to conform to the chemical compo-sition requirements shall be rejected.

S2. Transverse Tension Tests

S2.1 A transverse tension test shall be made on a specimenfrom one end or both ends of each pipe NPS 8 and over. If thissupplementary requirement is specified, the number of tests perpipe shall also be specified. If a specimen from any length failsto meet the required tensile properties (tensile, yield, andelongation), that length shall be rejected subject to retreatmentin accordance with SpecificationA999/A999Mand satisfactoryretest.

S3. Flattening Test

S3.1 The flattening test of SpecificationA999/A999Mshallbe made on a specimen from one end or both ends of each pipe.Crop ends may be used. If this supplementary requirement isspecified, the number of tests per pipe shall also be specified.If a specimen from any length fails because of lack of ductilityprior to satisfactory completion of the first step of the flatteningtest requirement, that pipe shall be rejected subject to retreat-ment in accordance with SpecificationA999/A999M andsatisfactory retest. If a specimen from any length of pipe failsbecause of a lack of soundness that length shall be rejected,unless subsequent retesting indicates that the remaining lengthis sound. The bend test of13.2 shall be substituted for theflattening test for pipe whose diameter exceeds NPS 25 andwhose diameter to wall thickness ratio is 7.0 or less.

S4. Metal Structure and Etching Tests
