Hi fellows, I'm performing a fitness for service (API 579 Part 3) on a Exchanger who works at low temperature. When I check the design data it has a minimum temperature of -10°C. The flat head has a thickness of 209mm (SA-105). When I check the minimum temperature trough the toughness curves of...

Hi, I'm analyzing inspection's results of a vessel. We found a some indications in the middle of the thickness. The vessel is a Freewater KO and the operative pressure is 3 kg/cm2. I search in API 571, and said that it may be susceptible to HIC. Should I analyse by API 579? We didn't found a...
