... of each pressure vessel type in the system and the associated qualification program(s) that the manufacturers need to meet. The validation with an established program has shown some merit and could be applied to all manufacturers in emerging countries to ensure consistency. The details...

..., this paper will show three different types of tools, and their suggested rate of field verification. They include manual torque wrenches, hydraulic torque wrenches (both low profile and square drive), and pistol grip torque wrenches (both battery and pneumatic). verification validation qualification...

... by the development of a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) which is used to predict the load capacities for normal, extreme, and survival conditions. The present work describes the experimental validation of a 18-3/4in 10,000 psi subsea collet connector model by applying linear pattern CEA-06-062UW-350 strain gauges...

...% and A1 temperature close to the upper end of the ASME specified PWHT range. Experimental metal core filler wire was manufactured and tested to validate the A1 temperature and delta ferrite content. A test weld in Type 410 steel was produced with the new filler wire and subjected to PWHT, metallurgical...
