API 1104 WELDER QUALIFICATION

[thulaib arakkal]

Hi All,

If I qualify a pipe welder in 6G position as per API 1104, is he qualified to weld in 5G position. Please note as per API 1104 not ASME.

Regards, 

Thulaib

Dear,

Yes, according to API 1104, if a pipe welder is qualified in the 6G position, they are generally considered qualified to weld in the 5G position as well. API 1104 typically covers welding standards and procedures for pipeline welding, and it doesn't specifically differentiate between 5G and 6G positions in terms of qualification requirements for welders. Therefore, a qualification in the more challenging 6G position typically implies proficiency in welding positions of equal or lesser difficulty, such as the 5G position. However, it's always essential to review the specific requirements of API 1104 and any relevant project specifications to ensure compliance.
