Scope: This welding procedure specification details the procedure to be followed for thru-wall or
partial thru-wall repair welding of pipe and/or components required by CSA Standard
Z662, Oil and Gas Pipeline Systems.

Normative References: This welding procedure specification was prepared in accordance

to CSA Z662-07 and incorporates by undated references, provisions from other
publications. Revision to this specification is not required unless subsequent referenced
code and or specification additions include changes to essential welding variables.

Service Restrictions: Sweet

Temperature Restrictions: Notch Toughness Tested to -5°C (23°F)

1. WELDING PROCESS & METHOD

Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) - manual method.

2. BASE MATERIAL
a) Composition: This specification applies to pipe and/or component material
manufactured in accordance with, or listed as "Acceptable Alternative Materials" in
any of the following standards:
CSA Z662, Oil and Gas Pipeline Systems
CAN/CSA-Z245.1, Steel Line Pipe
CAN/CSA-Z245.11, Steel Fittings
CAN/CSA-Z245.12, Steel Flanges
CAN/CSA-Z245.15, Steel Valves
b) Pipe Grades: 483 MPa (SMYS) or less
c) Wall Thickness Qualified: 1.6 to 9.6 mm (0.063 to 0.378 in.) inclusive
d) Pipe Diameters Qualified: 273.1 mm (10.750 in.) O.D. minimum
e) Carbon Equivalent: 0.31% maximum

3. FILLER METAL CLASSIFICATION & SIZE

a) Root Pass: E6010; 3.2 mm (1/8 in.)
b) Hot Pass: E8010-P1; 4.0 mm (5/32 in.)

 WPS No: EPI-08-WP5-TW

4. JOINT GEOMETRY
a) Joint Type: Groove - Single Vee Butt
b) Bevel Angle: 30°, +6° / -1.5°
c) Root Face: 1.6 mm (1/16 in.), +/- 1/32 in. (0.8 mm)
d) Root Gap: 1.6 mm (1/16 in.), +/- 1/32 in. (0.8 mm)

The surfaces to be welded shall be smooth, uniform, free of fins, laminations, tears, scale,
slag, grease, paint or other foreign matter, which may adversely affect the welding.

5. POSITION & DIRECTION OF WELDING

a) Position: All positions
b) Direction of Welding: Root & Hot Pass - Vertical down
Fill & Cap - Vertical up

6. PREHEATING, INTERPASS TEMPERATURE & CONTROLLED COOLING

a) Repair Welds: A minimum preheat temperature of 120°(250°F) shall be applied to
an area at least 150 mm (6.0 in.) from any point to the area to be repaired.

If the interpass temperature falls below the minimum preheat temperature, the entire weld
joint shall be heated to the minimum preheat temperature prior to starting the next weld
pass.

The maximum interpass temperature shall not exceed 204°C (400°F). Preheating may be
applied by oxy-fuel torch, propane torch, electrical induction coils or any other method
approved by the owner. Temperature of the joint shall be verified using temperature
indicating crayons, thermocouples, pyrometers or other suitable method.

Where applicable, precautions shall be taken through the use of insulating covers or other
means to control the cooling rate of the weld after any pass.

7. POSTWELD HEAT TREATMENT

Welds prepared in accordance with this specification shall not be subjected to postweld
heat treatment.

8. ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
a) Current Type: Direct current, reverse polarity
b) Voltage, amperage & travel speed: See Table #1
c) Heat Input: See Table #1

Prepared by Ludwig Associates Ltd. Page 2 of 4

 WPS No: EPI-08-WP5-TW

9. TECHNIQUE
a) Minimum number of root & second pass welders: One
b) String or Weave Bead: Root & Hot: String Fill & Cap: String or Weave
c) Minimum number of Weld Layers: Four layers minimum for complete thru-wall
repair.
d) Cleaning methods: Hand or power tools may be used. Each pass shall be
thoroughly cleaned and free of slag and scale prior to depositing the next weld
layer. The completed weld shall be brushed and free of spatter.
e) Filler and Finish Beads and Finish to be achieved: Weld repairs shall be
completed in a full operation without stopping. The completed weld shall have a
substantially uniform cross-section for its entire circumference. The crown of the
weld shall not be below the surface of the adjacent base metal.

10. REMOVAL AND REPAIR OF DEFECTS

a) Repairable defects shall be removed by grinding. The minimum length of any
repair shall be 50.8 mm (2.0 in.). Welding shall be performed following the details
outlined in this specification.

11. ATTACHMENTS
a) Procedure Qualification Test Records; EPI-08-WP5-1
b) Laboratory Test Reports; E08-213.10
c) Radiographic & MPI Examination Results
