REFERENCES - DURABAND® NC application technique - ASME IX 2007 EQUIPMENT & CALIBRATION 4.1 The welding equipment is automatic type and shall be verified once a year. 4.2 The welding equipment should have a clean grounding system that will not resist the flow of electric current. 4.3. The pre-heat equipment that have the ability to pre-heat any tool joint, center wear pad or drill collar to a uniform temperature from 225°F to 675'F (107C to 358° C) shall be used. 44 The digital electronic pyrometer shall be used to control preheat temperature and shall be verified once a year, 4.5 Blankets or canisters uses for slow cooling down shalll be available. PREPARATION 5.1 Visually inspect the surface of the tool joint to be welded to ensure it is clean and free of all foreign matter such as rust, dirt, grease, oil, paint or pipe coating, ete 5.2. Thread lubricants or storage compounds in the connection shall be cleaned off. 5.3 The old hardband area shall be visually inspected for existing crack, spalling, chipping, flaking and porosity. 5.4 Dimensional measurements should be taken and recorded to verify if a new layer of hardbanding is needed to meet the customer's requirements, 5.5 The existing hardband needs to be identified to ensure compatibility with the new layer of hardbanding to be applied. If the existing layer’s identity is unknown or found not to be compatible with the new hardbanding wire, then all the old hardbanding must be removed and the hardband area is rebuilt before application of the new layer is applied unless traceability to previous hhardbanding is achieved through the owner.

No: Date: __ _ No of Pages: Page 4 58 59 5.10 SL 5.12 5.13 If the old hardbanding has been removed by grinding or the Plasma Arc System then the groove must be inspected by wet MPI method for cracks. If cracks are observed in the base material, the tool joint is not acceptable and the customer must be advised Do not remove any excess parent metal than is needed. If a remaining wall thickness of less than 0,750” (19mm) may be realized, then careful consideration should be made when removing the reject hardbanding and applying the mild stee! layer. The mild steel layer shall be machined or ground to flush to the outside surface of the tool joint, Magnetic Particle Inspection or Liquid Penetrant Inspection shall be performed on the mild steel layer to ensure the mild steel layer is free of cracks before apply new harband layer. Examine the tool joints for eccentric wear. The concentricity of the tool joint should be within 0,030” of the center axis in order to apply an even layer of hardbanding and avoid the welding arc to be erratic and produce an unacceptable weld bead. When hardbanding tool joints, the ends of the pipe should be closed to prevent a draft, or “chimney effect”, through the pipe. The use of closed-end protectors, or applying tape over the wrench-hole openings on steel protectors, should be sufficient to prevent the drafting of air through the inside of the pipe. Clean the torch to be fiee of slag generated during the welding process. Excessive slag will fall out and contaminate the well puddle. Check the contact tip for excessive, irregular wear. Replace it if necessary 6 LOADING PIPE 6.1 6.2 63 64 Prior to loading pipe onto the hardbanding unit, the preheated tool joint/area (weld surface) shall be cleaned and free of soot and contamination. Loading pipe by driving pipe into hollow mandrel rotator; using a ratchet close the three jaw centralizing chuck until the tube is sufficiently secure, Clamp on work return lead, ensuring contact area has been wire buffed and clean to prevent the contact area from are strike. In order to avoid damage pipe body due to arching, the grounding should be placed on tool joint. 7 TORCH ALIGNMENT SETTINGS 7 72 13 The Distance “X” is set to between 0.750" to 1.500" depending on the OD of the tool joint, center wear pad or drill collar. The total indicated run-out (TIR) should be 0.030” Electrical Stickout should be %4" to 1 4" PVD OFFSHOREPVDO Doc Ref:_| QC-WI-6/06 ISO Standard: | 1SO 9001:2008 DURABAND® NC 1SO Cross-Ref:_ [7.5.1 HARDBANDING Orig.

Remove the tool joint from the heating device and immediately measure | the temperature in the area to be hardbanded. b. Immediately cover the tool joint with a canister or thermal blanket ©. Allow the tool joint to stand in still air for 4 minutes. 4. Then, again, measure the temperature of the tool joint. ec. If the temperature drops more than 50°F (10°C), the pre-heat applied is only a surface heat and not a soak heat. | £ If it is determined that it is a surface heat, continue preheating until the | temperature drop is within the tolerances of a soak heat. | 9.2 The preheat temperature range as table belows: | Preheat Temperature Tool joint 0.D. 3-1/8 to 4-3/4” 68°C to 93°C 4-3/4" to 5-1/4” 93°C to 121°C 5-1/2" to 6-1/4" 204°C to 232°C 6-3/8" to 6-718” 232°C to 288°C | Pt 7-3/8” 288°C to 316°C | 8” to 8-1/2” (nom) © [343°C to 371°C 8° to 8-1/2" (WIS*LD.)* 288°C to 316°C — | 10 POST - WELD COOLDOWN 10.1 Post-weld cool-down must be controlled. After unload pipe out of the unit, a thermal blanket or canister is placed onto the tool joint as quick as posible. ‘The blankets or canisters shall remain on the tool joint ends (or hardband area) until the tool joint has cooled down to less than 150°F (66°C). 10.2 Any repair grinding shall be done after the tool joint has cooled down to less than 66°C. 11 POST - WELD HARDBAND INSPECTION 11.1 The unit operator should adjust the hardband equipment to attain a flat or slightly convex weld profile.

Unless specified by the customer, each weld bead should meet the required hardband height of 3/32” 41/32”, 11.4 When welding the 18° elevator shoulder, the unit operator must ensure that the weld bead is consistently tied into the side of the recess groove in the tool joint shoulder. In addition, the weld bead shall not exceed the surface of the adjacent elevator shoulder 11.5 Cracks on hardband surface is unacceptable. 11.6 If the weld bead height on the 18 elevator shoulder exceeds that of the tool joint shoulder itself, it is necessary to remove that excess height to make it flush with the tool joint shoulder. 11.7 The hardband should be placed 3/8” from the taper shoulder. If placed too close to the shoulder interference with the elevator bowl will occur when closing the elevator latch, 12 REPORT Hardband Inspection Set up Report Hardband Inspection Report PVD OFFSHORE
