FOREWORD

NORSOK (The competitive standing of the Norwegian offshore sector) is the industry initiative to add value,
reduce cost and lead time and remove unnecessary activities in offshore field developments and operations.

The NORSOK standards are developed by the Norwegian petroleum industry as a part of the NORSOK initiative
and are jointly issued by OLF (The Norwegian Oil Industry Association) and TBL (Federation of Norwegian
Engineering Industries). NORSOK standards are administered by NTS (Norwegian Technology Standards
Institution).

The purpose of this industry standard is to replace the individual oil company specifications for use in existing and
future petroleum industry developments, subject to the individual company's review and application.

The NORSOK standards make extensive references to international standards. Where relevant, the contents of this
standard will be used to provide input to the international standardisation process. Subjec to implementation into
international standards, this NORSOK standard will be withdrawn.

INTRODUCTION

This revision replace NORSOK standard M-CR-630, rev. 1, and the changes from rev. 1 to rev. 2 are mainly:

! more precise test requirements

! in some cases, increased extent of NDT

The acceptance criteria have not been changed.

DEVIATIONS FROM ASME B31.1 CODE REQUIREMENTS

The use of the piping materials according to NORSOK Standards (L-CR-001, M-630 and M-601) will result in
some deviations from the ASME B31.3 code. All deviations have been carefully considered, and they are in line
with Norwegian and European practice. The deviations are:

! NORSOK have of practical reasons limited the thickness for requiring impact testing to 6 mm
! If subsize Charpy V-notch impact test specimens are used, the energy requirement is increased instead of
lowering the test temperature.
! Impact testing is not required in the qualification of the welding procedures for weldments in austenitic
stainless steel when used in the temperature range from – 29 °C to – 105 °C.
! Eddy current examination is accepted as replacement for spot radiography of stainless steel welds for wall
thicknesses less than 4.0 mm.
! Thin walled (thickness up to 7 mm) longitudinal welded pipes in 6 Mo austenitic stainless is accepted in as
welded condition provided the plate material used is solution annealed.

In general, the MDS have supplementary requirement beyond the ASTM standard to ensure a proper safety level.

1 SCOPE

This standard includes material requirement in a collection of Piping Material Data Sheets (MDS) for use in piping
systems, selected according to NORSOK L-CR-001, Piping and Valves.

2 NORMATIVE REFERENCES

The standards listed in the attached data sheets include provisions which constitute provisions of this NORSOK
standard. Latest issue of the references shall be used unless otherwise agreed. Other recognized standards may be
used provided it can be shown that they meet or exceed the requirements of the standards referenced below.

4 COLLECTION OF MATERIAL DATA SHEETS

4.1 General

Materials/components manufactured in accordance with M-CR-630 rev. 1 may be accepted. This shall be agreed
with the actual project/company.

The material selection menu for material standards and grades relevant for the piping systems is shown in Table 1.
The actual grades to be used with respect to piping design shall be stated on the piping class sheet.
The materials shall be delivered in accordance with the standard referred to. In addition the MDS specifies the
selected options in the referred standard and additional requirements which shall be added or supersede the
corresponding requirements in the referred standard.

The actual types of materials covered are as follow:

C - Carbon steels; Type 235, Type 235LT, Type 360LT

D - Ferritic/Austenitic Stainless Steels; Type 22Cr, Type 25Cr
K - Copper/Nickel 90/10 and other copper alloys
N - Nickel base alloys; Type 625
P - Polymers including fibre reinforced
R - Austenitic Stainless Steels; Type 6Mo
S - Austenitic Stainless Steels; Type 316
T - Titanium
X - High strength low alloyed steels.

Note: Welded products according to MDS D42, D43, D52, D53, R12, R13, S01 and T01 have acceptance classes
which give welding factors 0.8 and 1.0. The correct class is specified on the piping class sheet. The order shall
include acceptable classes.
