They were audited by the pipeline regulatory agency (PHMSA) and all of their welding documentation referenced qualification of API Grade X65, PSL 2. Since the pipe was X65 / X70 and each grade is required to be qualified separately, the auditor would not accept the X65 documentation. Perhaps, something along the lines of “upgrade(d)” as pipes would have to be ‘qualified separately’. HTH! |
