A client is looking for our definitive guidance regarding the suitability of fitting an NPT threaded 1" vent valve assembly into a blind flange at the end of a subsea hydrocarbon spool. The flange is duplex the valve 316. The spool is located under a wellhead flowbase.
Failure of the NPT...
Sorry if this has been covered before, search facility down at the moment.
I am having trouble locating a suitable design code (ASME, API or else) which gives design guidance on the minimum weld clearance for the following scenario:
What is the minimum clearance between a...
We have an application on a current project where we are using 1/2" bore double block and bleed valves at high points in a subsea manifold piping system (2-1/16" API 6A 10K flange faced, Duplex material). The compact valves are machined out of a single block of Duplex material with 10K...

I am looking for a bit of advice regarding how to 'modify', within the API 6A guidelines, a 10K 6BX flange out of the spec. to fit commercially available pipe sizes.
i.e a 2-1/6" 10K flange doesn't fit a 2" NB pipe od (60.3mm) as the minimum dimension of the flange hub is larger than...
