Specification and qualification of welding procedures for metallic materials — Welding procedure test — Part 9: Underwater hyperbaric wet welding
This document specifies how a preliminary welding procedure specification (pWPS) is qualified by welding procedure tests.
This document is applicable to production welding and repair welding.
This document is applicable to fusion welding of steels covered by groups 1, 2, 3 and 8 in accordance with ISO 15608 in a hyperbaric wet environment.
This document is applicable to the following welding processes, in accordance with ISO 4063:2023, applicable in hyperbaric wet environments:
— 111 manual metal arc welding (metal arc welding with covered electrode);
— 114 self-shielded tubular-cored arc welding.
The principles of this document can be applied to other steel groups and fusion welding processes not listed.
This document specifies three weld quality levels, A, B, and Z in order to permit application to a wide range of weldments. Each weld quality level defines a set of criteria for weldment properties that are established during qualification.
This document does not address the selection of the weld quality level to meet the requirements of a particular application.
