Good day,

 
These are some of the questions i could remember:
 
API 650
 
1.A 283M  grade C was given and we were asked to find Product design stress.(one of the options
20000psi)
 
2. Opening in tank shells larger than required to accomodate a NPS --- flanged or threaded nozzle shall
be reinforced. (one of the options was NPS 2).
 
API653
 
3. Definition of a critical Zone
 
4. A516-70 was given and we were aked to find allowable hydrostatic test stress on the lower
course(33000lbf/in2).
 
4. There was a calculations using lesser of RCA/2N or 15yrs.
 
5.There was a question on who review and approved RBI(API653-6.4.2.4)
 
6.There a question that existing weld joints shall meet the requirements of the --(API653-8.3)
 
7.There was a question on the minimum thickness of new roof plates shall be 3/16in.
 
8.There was a question on API653- 9.14.5.2 After the pipe is welded, the reinforcing plate shall be
installed either in one piece or two pieces with --- weld.(Horizontal weld).
 
9.There was a question on undercut and maximum reinforcement thickness
 
10. There was a question on which of the following could be found on a name plate and one of the
answers was allowable stress used in calculations of each shell course.
 
11.There was a question on edge settlement.
 
ASME IX
 
 
12.Definition of Heat affected zone
 
13.There were questions on PQR and WPS much easier than what we practised in the class. There was
one particular question concerning the PQR to signed and the date.
 
14. The welding process was SMAW.
 
API 577
 
15.There was an option that say that eithter AC or DC may be employed for SMAW process which was
the answer.
 
API 651
 
16. There was a question whcich say , which of the following API recommended practice treat cathodic
protection.A .API 651.B. 652.C .575 .D 653.
 
 
17. There was a question on negative potential of atleast 850mV
 
18.There was a question on CATHODIC PROTECTION SURVEY and the answer was found on the first
paragraph of 11.3.1.1 of API 651
 
API 652
 
19.There was a question on Holiday testing of thin-film linings should performed with a low- voltage 67.5
volts wet sponge detector.
 
API 571
 
20. There was a question on the appearance of MIC. The answer was found on API 571-- 4.3.8.5  (a).
