maximum residual field the coil must be reversed on each length by alternating the north and south field with a south to north field. If the coil direction is not reversed, the residual field may become weak or the length could be reduced by the adjacent length. 6.1.7

During and after magnetization with a coil, each end shall be positioned no closer than 1 foot (31 cm) to another piece of ferromagnetic material, until inspection of the magnetized area has been completed.

6.1.8

The magnetization levels achieved in 6.1.4 shall be verified: a. On the first five (5) pieces of the same material description to assure the maximum current value is achieved and b. A minimum of once every 50 ends magnetized and on the last piece of the same material description.

6.1.9

6.2

All pieces magnetized between an acceptable check and an unacceptable check, as described in 6.1.8, shall be re-magnetized prior to inspection.

Longitudinal Magnetic Field Induction - Active 6.2.1

Each connection shall be magnetized with a longitudinal magnetic field using one (1) of the magnetizing sources described in 3.1 and a coil configuration which meets the requirements of 3.2.

6.2.2

Place the coil over the shoulder of the tool joint pin (and/or box, as applicable).

6.2.3

Energize the coil and simultaneously apply magnetic particle solution to the thread area and observe the particle mobility. Adjust the magnetizing current to produce a field as high as possible without the particles being prematurely pulled out of suspension. Turn OFF the current. Particle mobility should continue for at least 6 seconds.

NOTE: Excessive ampere-turns may cause a lack of mobility of fluorescent particles on the thread surface. This impairs in two (2) ways; the particles may create a background that makes detection of cracks more difficult and the lack of particles in the fluid may reduce the intensity of the indications.

10.0 WET FLUORESCENT MAGNETIC PARTICLE TOOL JOINT INSPECTION, TYPE II – ACTIVE TECHNIQUE Magnetic Particle Inspection of Tool Joints, Type II, is performed to detect transverse service-induced cracks in the pin and box threads, using wet magnetic particles. Threads and shoulders are visually examined for identifiable damage in accordance with 5.5.1 and 5.5.2 in SOP III-100. 10.1 Cleaning 9.1.1

Pin threads, shoulders and the box OD must be cleaned to perform the magnetic particle inspection in accordance with 4.0.

9.1.2

Burrs and rough spots should be smoothed with a soft grinding wheel.

10.2 Inspection of Pin Threads 10.2.1 Position the cape cover over person and surface to be inspected. Hold the black light 4 to 5 inches (10 to 13 cm) from the surface to be inspected and direct the black light at the surface. NOTE: For inplant inspections, capes are not required if black light booths are used. NOTE: Ultraviolet absorbing eyeglasses shall be worn to prevent unnecessary exposure of the eye to ultraviolet radiation. Eyeglasses which are photochromic (darken with increased light exposure) or that are permanently dark (sunglasses) are prohibited. 10.2.2 Energize the coil and simultaneously apply magnetic particle solution to the thread area. Periodically, vigorously agitate the magnetic particle solution and apply the solution with low velocity, uniformly over the applicable surfaces of the connection. 10.2.3 Turn OFF the magnetizing current. 10.2.4 Inspect entire threaded area. Particular attention shall be paid to the area of the last engaged thread on each connection. The material shall either be rolled or rotated a minimum of 1-1/4 revolutions. 10.2.5 Any fatigue cracks noted in the connection are cause for rejection.

10.2.6 If an indication is questionable, the area should be re-cleaned or buffed with a nonmetallic and nonabrasive buffing wheel and re-inspected. 10.3 Repeat 10.2 for the Box tool joints. 10.3.1 A small magnifying mirror shall be used to inspect the roots of the box threads. 10.4 Upon completion of the inspection remove all magnetic particle inspection materials from the inspected surfaces. 11.0 DRY MAGNETIC PARTICLE SLIP/CRITICAL AREA INSPECTION – ACTIVE TECHNIQUE Magnetic Particle Inspection of the slip/critical areas of the tube body, to detect transverse service-induced cracks using dry magnetic particles and an A.C. Yoke which meets the requirements of 3.4, an A.C, Coil which meets the requirements of 3.3 or a D.C. Coil which meets the requirements of 3.2. 11.1 Cleaning. The inspection area shall be free of scale, oil or other foreign materials and dry. 11.2 A.C. Yoke Inspection Procedure 11.2.1 Apply the electromagnetic yoke such that the handle is oriented at 90° to the transverse axis of the pipe. 11.2.2 As the yoke is moved through the slip area, sprinkle a fine cloud of dry powder on the pipe surface between the yoke legs. The pipe shall be rolled or rotated a minimum 1-1/4 turns. Overlap the legs of the yoke 50% to ensure complete coverage of the surface. The Slip areas defined in 3.3 in SOP III-001 shall be inspected. 11.2.3 If an indication is questionable, the area should be re-cleaned or buffed with a nonmetallic and nonabrasive buffing wheel and re-inspected. 11.2.4 Repeat 11.2.2 and 11.2.3 for the critical area on the opposite end of the tube, for the distance defined in 3.3 in SOP III-001.

11.3 Coil Inspection Procedure 11.3.1 Slide the Coil over the tool joint and position it at the end of the tool joint taper. 11.3.2 Adjust the amp-turns of the coil to provide at least 500 amp-turns per inch of connection O.D. NOTE: Excessive ampere-turns (NI) can produce furring of dry magnetic particles on the outside surface that can conceal indications. 11.3.3 Energize the coil and simultaneously sprinkle a fine cloud of dry powder on the pipe surface, under the coil. The pipe shall be rolled or rotated a minimum 1-1/4 turns. The Slip areas defined in 3.3 in SOP III-001 shall be inspected. 11.3.4 If an indication is questionable, the area should be re-cleaned or buffed with a nonmetallic and nonabrasive buffing wheel and re-inspected. 11.3.5 Repeat 11.3.3 and 11.3.4 for the critical area on the opposite end of the tube, for the distance defined in 3.3 in SOP III-001. 11.4 Any suspect crack indications shall be investigated in accordance with 9.0 in SOP III-002. 11.5 Upon completion of the inspection remove all magnetic particle inspection materials from the inspected surfaces. 12.0 WET MAGNETIC PARTICLE SLIP/CRITICAL AREA INSPECTION – ACTIVE TECHIQUE Magnetic Particle Inspection of the slip/critical areas of the tube body, to detect transverse service-induced cracks using wet magnetic particles and an A.C, Coil which meets the requirements of 3.3 or a D.C. Coil which meets the requirements of 3.2. 12.1 Surfaces to be inspected must be clean and free of oil, rust, scale and other foreign materials. 12.2 Slide the A.C. or D.C. Coil over the tool joint and position it at the end of the tool joint taper.

12.3 Adjust the amp-turns of the coil to provide at least 500 amp-turns per inch of connection O.D. NOTE: Excessive ampere-turns (NI) can produce lack of mobility of fluorescent particles on the outside surface that can conceal indications. 12.4 Position the cape cover over person and surface to be inspected. Hold black light 4 to 5 inches (10 to 13 cm) from the surface to be inspected and direct the black light at the surface. NOTE: For inplant inspections, capes are not required if black light booths are used. NOTE: Ultraviolet absorbing eyeglasses shall be worn to prevent unnecessary exposure of the eye to ultraviolet radiation. Eyeglasses which are photochromic (darken with increased light exposure) or that are permanently dark (sunglasses) are prohibited. 12.5 Vigorously agitate the magnetic particle solution. 12.6 Energize the coil and simultaneously apply the solution with low velocity, uniformly on the pipe surface, under the coil.
