Engineering Bulletin

1.0 Scope

The purpose of this document is to provide inspection personnel with minimum

pressure boundary wall thickness criteria for Weco® and Chiksan® (hereafter
referred to a "Flowline") products. For guidance on routine maintenance and other
inspection criteria, the end user should consult product specific operating manuals
and Integrated Services procedures.

Due to variability of service conditions, the service life of life of oilfield

temporary piping can vary widely. In order to maximize the useful life of
Chiksan and Weco products, the end user must institute appropriate
inspection procedures with due consideration of all service conditions.
CAUTION

2.0 Background

Oil well pumping services such as hydraulic fracturing involve the movement of
slurries with abrasive solids at high flow rates. Over time, temporary piping equipment
can experience significant loss of pressure boundary wall thickness.

The minimum wall thickness values in the tables of this document are a result of a
consistent application of pressure boundary calculations per ASME Boiler and
Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII Division 2, and acceptance criteria in accordance
with API 6A for non-standard materials.

Never take TechnipFMC Flowline equipment above its rated working

pressure. The minimum wall thickness criteria in this document assume
that rated working pressure is never exceeded during operation, pre-job
testing or recertification for service.
WARNING

3.0 Use of this Document

This document only provides wall thickness acceptance criteria. Actual inspection
methodology requirements such as inspection frequency, inspection scope and
acceptable measurement techniques are beyond the scope of this document. All

This document and all the information contained herein are the confidential and exclusive property of TechnipFMC,
and may not be reproduced, disclosed, or made public in any manner prior to express written authorization by TechnipFMC.

such inspection activity on Flowline products should be carried out in accordance with
Integrated Services procedures or other procedures approved by TechnipFMC.

When wall thickness measurements are taken, they must be compared with the
minimum allowable thickness for the product and feature per the applicable table(s)
within this document. If any inspected wall thickness falls at or below the specified
minimum allowable thickness, the component or product must be replaced. It is
highly recommended that the rate of erosion wear be analyzed to ensure that the
minimum wall thickness is not violated prior to the next scheduled inspection.

Use of temporary piping equipment with wall thickness in any area below
that specified in this document can result in death, severe injury and
significant property damage.
WARNING

4.0 Minimum Wall Thickness Tables

Tables 4.1 through 4.4 on the following pages contain minimum wall thickness criteria
for Flowline products. These values apply to products manufactured specifically by
TechnipFMC.
