1- Pipeline specification.
Piping is an assembly of components that includepipe, valves, fitting ,flanges, bolts, gaskets andsupports used to convey distribute and control flowof fluid.
Piping must also contain the conveyed fluid andaccommodate internally and externally imposedloads and thermal movements.

Pipe size.
Nominal pipe size (NPS) is a dimensionless designator of pipe size. Itindicates standard pipe size when followed by the specific sizedesignation number with out an inch symbol. For example, NPS 2indicates a pipe whose outside diameter is 2.375 in. The NPS 12 andsmaller pipe has outside diameter greater than the size designator (say, 2,4, 6, . . .). However, the outside diameter of NPS 14 and larger pipe is thesame as the size designator in inches. For example, NPS 14 pipe has anoutside diameter equal to 14 in. The inside diameter will depend upon thepipe wall thickness specified by the schedule number. Refer to ASMEB36.10 .

Flange pressure / temperature ratings
As per ASME B16.5 / ASME B 16.47 these are combinations of pressureand temperature design conditions, combined with flanges materials.
There are seven classes of pressure/temperature rating in ASME B16.5 /ASME 16.47 they are classes 150 300 400 600 900 1500 & 2500.
For higher pressure / temperature rating, API 6A Code (well head flanges)classes 5000&10000 PSI shall be used.

3- Pipe fittings and branch connections
A fitting is a piping element that connects a pipe or flange in order tofacilitate the flow direction change.
A branch connection is a piping element that connects two pipes with aspecified angle i.e not the same centerline.
Steel fittings may be classified as:
1. Forged (socket weld or screwed : for small sizes.)
2. Welded for all pipe sizes.
3. Flanged for special purposes.

3-Welding electrodes identificationAWS 5.1 Electrodes, SMAW Carbon steel Electrodes
The American Welding Society (AWS) numbering system can tell a welderquite a bit about a specific stick electrode including what application itworks best in and how it should be used to maximize performance. Withthat in mind, let's take a look at the system and how it works.
The prefix "E" designates an arc welding electrode. The first two digits ofa 4-digit number indicate minimum tensile strength. For example, E6010is a 60,000 psi tensile strength electrode. E 60 1 0 Electrode Tensile Strength Position Type of Coating and Current

• A liquid with high surface wetting characteristics isapplied to the surface of the part and allowed time toseep into surface breaking defects.
• The excess liquid is removed from the surface ofthe part.
• A developer (powder) is applied to pull thetrapped penetrant out the defect and spread it onthe surface where it can be seen.

• A developer (powder) is applied to pull thetrapped penetrant out the defect and spread it onthe surface where it can be seen.
• Visual inspection is the final step in the process.The penetrant used is often loaded with afluorescent dye and the inspection is done underUV light to increase test sensitivity.

Magnetic Particle Inspection
The part is magnetized. Finely milled iron particles coated with a dyepigment are then applied to the specimen. These particles are attractedto magnetic flux leakage fields and will cluster to form an indicationdirectly over the discontinuity. This indication can be visually detectedunder proper lighting conditions.

1- Definition
Hot Tapping is the precise process of drilling a hole in an on- stream pipingsystem without spilling its contents or interrupting its flow.
or in a practical sense
Hot Tapping is a means by which access is made to the inside of anoperational pipeline, using either a drill or a circular cutter. Applicationsinclude attachment of a branch connection to the line, installation of aninternal probe or monitor, and to stop or redirect flow in a line formaintenance or repair purposes.
Implies positioning a branch fitting on an operating pressurized line,flowing or stagnant. Then cutting a hole in the run through the branch toallow connection to the flowing media. Normally implies using a weldedfitting.

Typical Hot Tapping Procedure
Page 75
(Shown: Standard Valve usedwhen tapping to install laterallines.SANDWICH® ValveOption allows temporaryplugging operation.)
1.A fitting is permanentlysecured to the line.2. A permanent valve isinstalled on the fitting.
3.A Tapping Machine is installed onthe fitting, and the valve is opened. Afterpilot drill penetrates, the tapping machinefills with product, and air is purgedfrom the housing. The tap is makethrough the line and the coupon isretained.
4.The valve is closed, andthe tapping machine isremoved. A branchconnection is added, and thevalve is opened. The newconnection is ready to putinto service. This field-proven Procedure is quickand precise.

2- Purpose of Hot Tapping.
Hot tapping is usually performed when it is not feasible, or is impractical,to take the equipment or piping out of service, or to purge or clean it byconventional methods. With proper review to determine that a hot tap isappropriate, and development and conformance to job specificprocedures, many hot tap connections have been safely made withoutinterfering with the process operation.

3-Parameters that affect Hot Tapping.3.1.2 Flow in lines
Higher flow increases the weld cooling rate and the risk of cracking.Therefore, when welding, it is desirable to provide some minimum level offlow while avoiding high flow rates. The need for a minimum level of flowis a trade-off between the need to minimize the risks of burn-through andcracking.
For metal thickness between 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) and 1/2 in.(12.7 mm), flowalso increases the weld cooling rate and risk of cracking. Minimizing theflow rate reduces the risk of cracking and keeps the risk of burn throughlow. For metal thickness greater than 1/2 in. (12.7 mm), the effect of flowon both weld cooling rates and the risk of burn-through may be negligible.
Recommended flow rate during welding 0.4<X<1.2 m/s in case of liquid. 0.4< X< NOLIMIT in case of Gas.

3-Parameters that affect Hot Tapping.
3.2.2 pipeline metal thickness and outer diameter The piping or equipment base metal thickness must provide support for
the new connection and the hot tapping machine. Alternately, reinforcingpads or auxiliary support of the hot tapping machine may be provided.
A minimum base metal thickness of 3/16 in. (4.8 mm) is recommended formost applications of welding and hot tapping. The actual minimumthickness is a function of the thickness required for strength, plus a safetyfactor, usually 3/32 in. (2.4 mm), to prevent burn through.
Pipeline outer diameter , wall thickness and the required branchconnection diameter are determined the selection of branch connectiontype (weldolet , split tee , --), and also determined the type of cutter to beused in case of flat plate condition.
