Mean pipe temperature is recorded as the actual tie-in temperature for SAES-L-450,
A1
pipeline. Para. 15.7
Contact temperature measuring device is shielded from direct sun to SAES-L-450,
A2
prevent an inaccurate reading (as applicable). Para. 15.3
Construction Engineer has determined the highest practical tie-in SAES-L-450,
A3 temperature for each tie-in weld. Hold Point: Readings of mean pipe Para. 15.2 &
temperature were taken for three days prior to tie-in. Para. 15.7
Actual tie-in temperature reading is the average of two readings, one at SAES-L-450,
A4
the top and one at the bottom of the pipe. Para. 15.3
SAES-L-450,
A5 Actual tie-in temperature is within range stated in the Project Specs.
Para. 15.2
The final weld shall be made at or above the mean pipe temperature for SAES-L-450,
A6
the three days prior to the final tie-in. Para. 15.7
