7. NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING
7.1 Examination Techniques
Pipe end bevels shall be subjected to magnetic particle inspection in accordance
with ASTM E709.
Seamless line pipe shall be inspected by the ultrasonic testing (UT) method in
accordance with API Spec. 5L,SR4. The reference standard shall contain two
machined N5 type notches, one on the inside surface and one on the outside
surface of the pipe, parallel to the axis of the pipe and separated by a distance
large enough to produce two separate signals. An imperfection that produces a
signal greater than the reference standard shall be considered a defect and
attended to as stated in Section 8.3 of this document.
Dynamic calibration of the ultrasonic inspection tools and reference standards
shall be employed. Inspection shall be performed at the line pipe production rate.
All bevelled ends shall be ultrasonically inspected over a width of 2 inches
(50mm) around the circumference of the pipe after bevelling. A 1/4-inch
(6.35mm) diameter flat bottom hole will be used as a rejection standard.
Laminations or other defects with a greater reflected signal than the rejection
standard are not acceptable.
All pipe joints shall be full length tested for laminar and longitudinal imperfections
in the pipe body using Ultrasonic methods.
The non-destructive testing equipment used to inspect the pipe shall be checked
with applicable reference standards in a manner similar to that used in regular
production, at least once per 8 hour operating shift. If on checking against the
reference standard, the equipment is found to be faulty or to require recalibration,
all pipe tested since the previous calibration shall be retested.
Non-destructive inspection procedures and equipment shall be subject to
approval by Company prior to manufacture of the pipe.
All non-destructive examinations shall be carried out by personnel qualified to
ASNT-SNT-TC-lA (latest edition) Level II requirements or equivalent.
7.2 Residual Magnetism
Residual magnetism may cause welding problems. The maximum permissible
magnetic flux density shall be less than 20 gauss, as measured completely
around the end of the pipe using a gauss meter. Every pipe shall be checked as
it is loaded for shipment from the pipe mill. All pipe exhibiting a magnetic flux
density greater than or equal to 20 gauss shall be degaussed prior to loading for
shipment.

criteria shall be considered defects. Pipe containing defects must be given one
of the following dispositions:
The defect shall be removed by grinding provided the remaining pipe wall
thickness is within the limit specified in section 6.2 of this specification.
The ground areas shall be carefully dressed to ensure a smooth transition
with the surrounding surface of the pipe and that no sharp notch results.
The section of pipe containing the defect shall be cut off provided the pipe
length requirements are met.
