1.0 Purpose:
This Procedure provides the guideline for the Pneumatic Test of the RF pad which is welded
with tank nozzles and other piping connection associated with the project of
“OVERHAULING OF 04 NOS. CRUDE OIL TANKS AT MUBARRAZ ISLAND - 2017.
This statement is prepared as per API653 & ASME B 31.3 requirements and ADOC Japan’s
Technical specifications and is not intended to take precedence over any drawing,
Specification, Codes and other requirements.

2.0 Scope:
The Pneumatic pressure test is to ensure that integrity of RF pad weld joints connected
with nozzles, manhole and piping in site conforms to the code & other technical
requirements.

3.0 Reference:

ADOC contract no : ADOC / MI-16 / SPC / TN-19.

API 653 : Tank Inspection, Repair, Alteration & Reconstruction
ASME B 31.3 : Process Piping
Tank GA drawing : As applicable

4. 0 General Instructions/Precautions during the test:

a) Repair Welding, Visual examination & NDE shall be completed before

pneumatic test.

b) Pneumatic leak test on reinforcement pad shall be completed before hydrostatic

test of the line.

c) QC shall ensure that all welding is completed and examined as per specification
prior to test.

d) Soap solution or another suitable material shall be used for the detection of leak

e) Calibrated pressure gauge range within 1.5 to 4 times of the test pressure, shall
be used in conducting this test. The calibration period is valued for 1 year.
Certificate shall be provided.

4.1 Preparations:

Air shall be used as test medium.

Test surface shall be free from dust, paint, slag, oil & other contaminants which may
mask the surface of the test.
The temperature of surface should be that the soap solution should not dry during
application.
The details of pad test pressure is as follows

Description Pneumatic Test Pressure/Holding Time

All Nozzles RF pads Test pressure 5psig, Holding time 30 minutes

4.2 RF pad- Pneumatic Test for Nozzles:

a) Check the NDE is completed as per the approved ITP no.
b) Open the valve on the compressed air line or cylinder slowly in a
controlled manner so that the gauge reads the required test pressure of 5
PSI in accordance with SOW Clause 2.3.6 to which the space between
the reinforcement pad and the surface of nozzle to maintain the pressure
till completion of test.
c) Apply soap bubble solution for detection of leak shall be applied to all
attachment welding around the reinforcement both outer & inner
periphery of pad welds.
d) Inspect the entire weld surface carefully for any air bubbles coming after
application of soap solution.
e) There shall be no air bubbles from the weld area for successful
completion of test.
f) If any bubbles are noticed, then the pressure is reduced to atmospheric
pressure and testing manifold disconnected. The defective weld area shall

be ground out or gouged and re welded in accordance with approved

welding procedure. Then the test shall be repeated
g) After successful completion of the testing manifold is disconnected and
tell-tale hole shall be plugged & seal welded.

4.4 Test Record:

a) Complete history of the each system tested shall be maintained. The test
pack shall contain
- Tank GA drawing

- Copy of repaired weld history sheet and NDE sheets.

- Pneumatic test Report - Test medium and test pressure.

- Signature of the test supervisor.

b) These test records shall be compiled and handed over at the completion.

5.0 Roles & Responsibility:

a) Ensure COMPANY PTW and safety requirements are being followed
throughout this testing process.
b) Safety Officer : Takes care of the safety aspects during the testing
c) Production In-charge: Primary responsible for satisfying the requirement
of this procedure.
d) Operations Team: Takes care of setting up the test manifold, connections
& fixing the gauge, air filling etc.
e) QA/QC Engineer: Ensure the setup is ready for testing & internal testing
is satisfactory, appropriate documents will be compiled for test witness
by the client.
