Forgings manufactured to this specification are intended for use in the fabrication of offshore structures, marine risers, TLP tendons and pipelines, or other system components intended for application on permanent offshore structures. This specification defines the minimum requirements for manufacture, testing, and inspection of carbon and low-alloy steel forgings, including extrusions and heavy-wall seamless tubular product, grades 345 N/mm2 to 586 N/mm2 (50 ksi to 85 ksi) for use in primary steel applications.
Service categories A, B, and C (SCA, SCB, and SCC) reflect forging geometry and method of incorporation into the overall system, rather than levels of criticality. They may also be designated by the user (purchaser) to reflect moderately different but standardized levels of performance.
