Title : Automatic Ultrasonic Examination Type : General Procedure

Page 2 of 16

1 Purpose

The purpose of this procedure is to detail the set-up and methodology of all Automated Ultrasonic Examination (AUT) to determine specific circumferential ‘Weld Integrity’, this is in accordance with and following the requirements of DNV-OS-F101: 2010

The job specific parameters will be documented in an adjacent specific procedure, describing at least the following items:

 Reference Specification  Detailed project scope

 Inspection set-up configuration  Transducer selection

 Probe frame layout

 Rotoscan parameter set-up

 Calibration manufacturing drawings  Acceptance criteria

2 Scope

This procedure details methods for all Automated Ultrasonic Weld Examination (via the APPLUS RTD Rotoscan System) of ferrous butt welds. The Rotoscan is an automated ultrasonic inspection system for pipeline girth welds, based upon the ‘Pulse Echo Method’, enhanced with mapping images and ‘Time of Flight Diffraction’.

The weld is divided into a number of depth zones, which are each inspected by one of an array of probes. The probes are arranged such that the entire weld is examined from both sides in a single circumferential scan. The ultrasonic information is transferred to a computer for data presentation and analysis.

7 Calibration

7.1 General

The ultrasonic equipment shall be electronically calibrated at least once per 12-month period (±1 week) in accordance with the valid version of Applus RTD procedure CP 31105 (Conv.) or CP 31111 (PA).

7.2 Setting of Inspection Gates

7.2.1 Pulse-Echo and Tandem channels

With each transducer positioned for the peak signal response from the calibration reflector, the detection gates are to be set.

The gate shall start at least 2mm, and up to 8mm (allowance for the width of heat affected zone) before the theoretical weld bevel preparation.

The gate ends shall be at least 1mm after the theoretical weld centreline.

All gates will be programmed to record amplitude and/or transit distance information. The gate length of the transit distance in the root channel will be extended to enable root penetration recognition.

7.2.2 Mapping Channels

The mapping gate shall start at least 2mm, and up to 8mm (allowance for width of heat affected zone) before the theoretical weld bevel preparation.

The gate length will be extended to enable cap reinforcement registration or to establish overtrace from adjacent mapping zones.

The mapping gates in the root will be set identical to the pulse echo transit distance channels to enable the recognition of the root penetration.

7.2.3 ToFD Channel

The ToFD gate should start at an appropriate distance before the arrival of the lateral wave (ca. 2mm) and should extend up to the back-wall echo and or mode converted, to achieve full cover of the wall thickness.

Note:

The gate settings may be altered if geometry indications dictate.

7.2.4 Coupling Channels

For Conventional Set up all PE probes, with exception of ToFD and Transverse probes, shall be used for transmission US/DS coupling control

For PA set up the number of coupling channels shall be seven (7) i.e. three (3) on each side for BWE and one (1) for transmission US/DS for coupling control

(11)

Date : 05-09-2011

Page 9 of 16

7.3 Sensitivity Settings

The equipment sensitivity (echo amplitude) for all inspection channels should be set at 80% Full Screen Height.

The calibration of the inner and outer surface breaking zones is from the relevant notch and all other zones from a FBH.

The sensitivity setting for mapping in the volume is on a 1.5mm FBH at 80% FSH + 14 dB but should not be so great as to cause interfering electrical or geometric noise that could be misinterpreted.

The sensitivity setting for mapping in the root, as a minimum, is equal to the related pulse echo channels, increased with additional 14 dB to ensure proper detection but should not be so great as to cause interfering electrical or geometric noise that could be misinterpreted. The lateral wave (RF signal) of the TOFD channel sensitivity is set between 40% and 80% FSH. The probe distance for TOFD should be calculated at 2/3 of the wall thickness (nominal beam angle) ± 10mm.

The sensitivity for the coupling channels is established by setting the amplitude of the signal from the transmitting probe to the receiving probe to 80%FSH added with a nominal 10 dB gain and 80% FSH added with a nominal 4dB for BWE.

7.4 Scanning Preparation & Surface Condition

Spiral welds or long seams have to be ground flush over the scanning area.

The scanning area shall be free of weld spatter and other irregularities, which may interfere with the inspection.

Adjacent to one weld side, prior to welding, over the complete circumference at a fixed distance from the nose of the weld preparation, a scribe line shall be available for the guide band position adjustment.

The client is responsible for applying the scribeline and the lead operator is responsible for the acceptance of the applied scribeline.

Date : 05-09-2011

Page 10 of 16

8 Acoustic Coupling Fluid

Water shall be used as acoustic coupling fluid, to be able to test welds in the range from 0°C to over lukewarm. If temperatures lower than 0°C are experienced coupling will be mixed with antifreeze and recycled.

The coupling is supplied between the probe contact surface and the pipe via supply channels incorporated in the probe housing.

To enable good acoustical contact between the ultrasonic probes and the pipe surface, conditions as mentioned in Section 7.4 apply.

9 Examination

9.1 Calibration check

During the first number of welds a calibration scan shall be made before and after inspection of each weld. If agreed with client, the frequency of verification scans may be reduced to a minimum of one scan for each number of welds. This will be detailed in the specific

procedure.

Re-calibration shall be carried out if any of the following exist:

 The calibration of an inspection function differs more than -2 or +2dB from the previous calibration;

 The gate settings need to be adjusted with more than +/- 1.0mm with the previous calibration;

 After a weld repair;

In case the calibration differs from the initial setting, outside the given tolerances, the applicable probe(s) and coupling shall be checked.

If the settings have to be changed to achieve a good calibration, the welds before this

calibration up to the previous calibration will be re-evaluated taking the differences in the gain and/or gate adjustment into account.

Re-scanning shall be carried out from last valid calibration:  After a equipment breakdown

 If hardware changes have to be made to scanner to achieve a valid calibration If above is applicable, the system shall not be used until 5 acceptable calibration have been performed to confirm acceptable stability.

The result of each calibration scan shall be printed or converted to pdf format and stored on hard disc.

9.2 Step by Step Description of a Rotoscan Examination

The UT-system is already calibrated and a calibration scan with a record has been made. a. Adjust guiding band on the pipe to a distance of 150mm from the marks (scribe-line,

which is 40mm from the weld centre-line) and parallel to the weld. The accuracy of the band setting should be ±1mm.

b. Mark a ‘0’ datum point on the top of the pipe at the 12 o’clock position.

c. Attach the scanner to the band. d. Switch on the water coupling supply.

e. Locate the scanner over the top of the pipe and make sure that all probes are past the zero point and are in proper contact with the pipe surface.

f. Switch on the system and automatically the weld will be scanned in a clockwise direction. g. Systems will switch off automatically after a full scan with an overlap minimum of 5cm. h. Coupling supply will be switched off as well. Check the encoder position of an indication

at the start of the scan and confirm the position of that same indication in the overlap, difference in position allowed is 10mm.

i. Check the inspection results on defect indications and proper coupling. Use the transit distance recording, mapping and images for validation of defect indications within the root area and proper alignment of the guiding band.

j. In case of lack of coupling a second scan will be necessary. Remove the scanner from the band and attach it to the calibration block.

9.3 Operational checks

Operational checks shall be performed according to the specific procedure. The execution of and the results of the operational checks shall be recorded in the system log book.

The following operational checks shall be performed for every weld inspected:

 Reference line shall be within required tolerance and clearly marked around the pipe circumference.

 The scanning surface shall be free of weld spatter and other irregularities that may interfere with the movement of transducers.

 Physical damage and loose connections in the band. Band position shall be within a tolerance of maximum ± 1.0mm.

 The pipe surface temperature shall be within the required tolerance specified in the Specific Procedure.

(14)

Date : 05-09-2011

Page 12 of 16

Once daily or at least once per shift, check:

 the scanner for damage and loose connections;  calibration block for damage and scanning tracks;

 The bevel prepared at the bevelling station shall be of the specific weld bevel geometry, dimensions and tolerances shown on the drawings of the calibration block in use.  Transducers shall not be rocking in the scanner and shall be in firm contact with the

scanning surface. The transducers shall be firmly screwed onto the wedges. The

transducer wear faces (wedges) shall be checked for scores which may cause local loss of contact.

 The transducer stand-off distance shall be as recorded in the set-up sheet within ± 0.5mm.

 The transducer case height and the difference between the protrusions of carbide tips shall be as recorded in the setup sheet within ± 0.2mm.

 The recording system shall clearly indicate the location of imperfections relative to the 12 o’clock position of the weld, with a ±1% accuracy or 10mm, whichever is greater.

10 Interpretation of results

10.1 General

With the transit distance measurements and with the information from the Mapping and ToFD channels, visible on the result presentation, indications shall be judged whether they are from the weld geometry or defects.

The coupling channels will be checked for coupling loss. Coupling loss will be registered when the through transmission signal drops below 10% FSH as long as this is above noise level. In case the coupling loss in one of the channels is longer than the shortest allowable defect length, a rescan shall be carried out.

In case the cause of the coupling loss is due to the surface condition (e.g. grinding) the surface condition shall be improved (e.g. smoothing) and the weld shall be re-scanned. If this condition appears again then the client shall be informed and another available and suitable certified method of inspection (e.g. Manual UT, Radiographic Examination) shall be used.

10.2 Inspection result

The inspection result should be evaluated and/or reported as follows;

 All indications in the pulse echo channels should be evaluated which exceed the threshold level mentioned in the acceptance criteria.

 Defect length in the pulse echo channels shall be measured at the Go – Nogo level as mentioned in the acceptance criteria.

 Linear elongated indications in the pulse echo channels with spacing less than the length of the smallest indication shall be evaluated as one continuous defect.

The interpretation sequence to be followed is visualized in Attachment 2 and 3 for the “Decision Flow Chart for WMS and ECA”.

11 Acceptance/Rejection criteria

For Acceptance/Rejection criteria see the project specific supplement

12 Reporting

The APPLUS RTD Rotoscan site report will be used for reporting of inspection results. The following information will be documented as minimum:

 Used procedure number;  Project name/number;  Weld No;

 Inspection date;  Diameter;  Wall thickness;

 Number of indications, location on circumference and location in depth;  Acceptable or rejectable.

For a sample of the Rotoscan site report, see attachment 2. An example of file naming, for Mainline Weld ML 1234

ML 1234 cal Calibration scan performed prior to mainline weld ML 1234 Scan of mainline weld

ML 1234 cal out Calibration scan performed at shift end.

13 Examination of repairs

Repaired areas shall be inspected with the Rotoscan system that originally detected the imperfection. This inspection will demonstrate that the original imperfection is removed and that no “new” imperfections are introduced to the weld.

The results from the ToFD inspection supplemented with the Mapping image will be used to interpret the repaired area.

Manual UT will be used in addition to the Rotoscan inspection in accordance with approved manual UT procedures.

If the repair requires a cut-out re-examination will be conducted using the Rotoscan equipment set-up for the bevel defined in the qualified project welding procedure.

14 Storage of data

The raw data of each inspected weld including the parameter settings will be stored on the main hard drive (C-Drive). In addition, a back-up will be made on a second hard drive (Removable D Drive)

The Date and Time function will be used to ensure that all welds scanned are accounted for. By selecting this function the date and time of each scan made becomes part of the file name, removing the chance of overwriting any file.

Welds will be stored in daily directories, which will be created at 24:00 hrs each day.

Operators are responsible for the daily directory on the main hard drive and shall ensure that all welds are present and readable. Each shift will store scans and calibrations in a windows folder of that date e.g. DD-MM-YYYY

All calibration and weld inspection results will be printed in a compressed black-white image of the entire weld circumference after acceptable scan is completed.

After completion of the pipeline project, all data (NDT, welds, repairs and calibrations) will be stored on a digital medium and presented.

The official record of inspection will be the Rotoscan Site Report and will bear the original signature of the AUT Rotoscan Operator.
