g) Enbridge design requirement for above grade Pipeline Facility weldments requiredemonstrated toughness testing at temperatures as low as -45C (-50F). Cellulosic coated
electrodes are not necessarily intended for these low temperature applications. As a result,Pipeline Facility welding applications in which all passes are to be made with cellulosecoated electrodes are to be discouraged and will be restricted to below grade joining of pipeto pipe.
Compared to low hydrogen electrodes, cellulosic coated electrodes increase potentialsusceptibility to delayed hydrogen assisted cracking (HAC). In order to determine if HAC hasoccurred in completed welds, a higher degree of inspection rigor will be required. As such,100 percent delayed NDT (next day or longer) of all welds will be required to detect cracking
which may have developed after completion of welding.Welding procedures shall be submitted by the Contractor to the Company for review andapproval by Pipeline Integrity or Pipeline Integrity's designate. Alternative procedures must besubmitted as soon as possible to allow a reasonable approval period for the Company withoutaffecting the work schedule. As a guide, allow two weeks for Company review and approval ofwelding procedures. Contractors must submit WPS in conjunction with a welding matrix thatidentifies the specific material, WPS and other relevant variable combinations that are requiredfor construction.

During installation of spring hangers or supports on pump piping systems, it is essential thatpumps be aligned within the limits of misalignment allowed by the pump manufacturer,
applicable Company specifications and industry standards. At this stage, the piping system willbe empty of process fluid and at ambient temperature. Pipe flanges should be carefully mated tothe pump to minimize initial pipe strains on the pump.
Compressor or turbine piping which will contain vapour shall be aligned cold when the system iscomplete with stops removed.
Installer shall not modify, add, delete or move supports on a spring supported system withoutthe approval of the design engineer.
13 Procedure for Pump Piping Installation
This procedure should be followed to ensure pump case stress is minimised by proper pumpsuction and discharge piping installation and alignment.
If the contractor has an alternative installation procedure, it shall be submitted to the CompanyProject Engineer for approval. This shall be done well in advance to permit discussion andapproval prior to its use.
Axial direction means in the same direction as the pump shaft. Radial direction is perpendicularto the pump shaft direction.
13.1 Preparation
1) The pump and motor should be aligned to within 0.001 in./ft. in the horizontal and verticalangular offset and within 0.001 in. soft foot (see FCS015 - Mechanical EquipmentInstallation). The pump flanges should be aligned with the horizontal scribe marks on thepump base.
2) Mount dial indicators on the horizontal, vertical and axial positions taking readings off thepump hub with the spacer removed. This will indicate whether there is any movement in thepump when the pump elbows are tightened.

6) After the tie-in weld is made, the remaining tack welded joints may be completed. Twowelders should work 180 apart to minimise distortion due to the heat of welding. The
Inspector shall witness the final tie-in weld.7) Allow the pipe to cool.
8) The dial indicators should read zero movement (0.002 in. maximum) in the pump hub.
9) Loosen both pump elbow flanges to relieve any induced strain from the welding andretighten as in step 3 above. There should be zero movement in the pump hub when thepump elbow is tightened.
13.1.2 Method 2 (Tie-In Welds on Pump Elbow)
1) Fabricate and install the pump piping up to the pump elbow and tighten the pipe support.
2) The horizontal flange below the pump elbow must be level to within 0.002 in./ft. in the axialand radial directions.
3) Shim the stub end flange faces the thickness of a compressed flexitallic spiral wound gasketaway from the opposing raised face weld neck flange to determine the proper length of thestub ends before welding them to the elbow. Insert 4 bolts at the 3, 6, 9 and 12 oclock
positions and soft tighten to hold the shims in place.4) Cut the stub ends and weld the elbow. Two welders working 180 apart to minimise
distortion due to the heat of welding shall weld the pipe.
5) Shim the bottom elbow flange to the weld neck flange as in step 3 and note the upper flangeface in relation to the pump flange. The faces should be parallel to within 0.020 in./ft. in thevertical and axial directions. The raised faces should be concentric with each other to within0.060 in. If not, the elbow may require mitre cutting and re-welding to obtain thesetolerances.
6) Assuming proper face tolerances have been achieved, install the bolts and gaskets. Handtighten the bolts on the lower flange. This will help ensure the faces are square for the finaltie-up.
