FOREWORD
It has bce n recognized w ithi n the pipeline indus try that sorne scct ions of high-pressu re pipelines,
par tlcularly those with lon g serv lce histories, may experience corrosion. It has abo been recognized , th rou gh the or etical an al ysis, scientific research and testing, and ind us tr y opera ting experien ce, tha t some amou nt of metal 10 55 due to corrosi n ca n be tolerated w itho ut impairing the
ablty of the pipeline to operate safely. In 1984, A5ME published the first edition of the B31G
Manu al for Determi ning the Rernaining Stren gth of Corrodcd Pipelines. The B31G docu ment
provided pipeline o perators with a simplified eva lua tion method based on the resul ts of analysis
and tests. The application of B31G ha s enabled p ipeline ope ra tors to reliab ly determine safe
opera ting pressure Ievels for pipe affected by corrosi n, and to determine whethe r rep a rs a re
necessary in order to continue operating safely
B31G contin ued to be reiss ued by A5ME w ith o nly minor revi sion s o ver time, a ltho ug h o the r
corrosin eva luation methods had evol ved since B31C 's initi a l publication. A majority of th es e
other methods are based on the sa me theo retical mod el from which the origina l B31G method
was d eri ved, but may offer so rne rcfinement in accu racy. Subseq uently, an effort was un derta ken
to u pd at e the B31G d ocument to recognze certa in ot her corrosion evaluation methods tha t have
p reven so und and that ha ve se en successful use in the p ipeline industry. lncorpora tio n of th ese
o the r metho ds int o a recogni zed Code d ocument provdes the pip elin e o perato r or ot he r user
with a formalized framework within w hich to use such methodo logies, as well as a wider ra nge
of codified technical opt ion s w ith which to make an eva luat ion. Th e 2009 revi slon of B31G
reflec ted those objectives.
The 2012 ed ition of B31G wa s approved by the American National Standard s Insti tu te (ANS I)
on September 20, 2012.

1.6 Analysis Level

The user may choose to con d uct a Level 0, Level 1,
Level 2, or Leve l 3 analysis, d epen d ing on the qu an tity
and quality of data ava ilable with which to perform a n
evalua tion, and on the desired degree of refinem ent of
the analys is.
(a) A Level Oevalua tion is one that relies on th e tabl es
of a llowab le defect length and d epth found in sectio n 3.
Th ese tabl es arccarried over w ithout change fro m ea rlier
ed ito ns of A5ME B31G and have been supplemented
by th e addi tion of tables in m etric u ni ts. It is int ended
tha t a Leve! O eva lua tion be conducted in the field without the need for pe rforming d etai led calculatio ns.
(b) A Level 1 eval ua tion is a si mp le calcu la tion tha t
reles 011 sing le measu remen ts of th e ma ximum depth
and axial extent of m etall oss. It is intended that a Level l
eva lua tion be conducted in the field by an en gin ee r;
corrosion technician, coating inspector, o r o ther indiv idual having approp riat e training. A Level 1 eval uation is
also suitable for use in prioritizing meta l-loss anomalies
identified by inline inspec tion .
(e) A Level 2 eva luation is one that incorpora tes a
greater level of detail than a Level 1 eva luatio n in o rd er
to produce a more accurate es timate of th e failure pressu re . lt typically relies 0 0 d etailed measurements of the
corrod ed surface p rofil e, accounting for the actual d istribution of metal 1055, and involves repetitive com putations that ma y be facilitated by the use of comp uter
softwa re or spreadshee ts. lt is intended that a Level 2
evalua tion be cond ueted by an eng ineer or technician
having ap propriate tra ining. A Level 2 eval ua tion ma y
be suitable for use in prioritizing me tal-loss anomalie5
identified by high-reso lut ion inline inspection.
(d ) A Leve! 3 eva luatio n is a d etailed an alY5is of a
specific f1 aw in aceord ance with a llser-defined meth odo logy, w ith fu ll just ifica tion for load ings, bOlUldary con d ition s, materi al pro pertit.'S, and failure crite ria . It is
intended tha t a Leve l 3 eva llla tion be cond uct ed by a
technica l specia list havin g appropriate expertise in thc

FOREWORD
1t has been agreed to p ublish interpre tat ions issued by the 631 Cornmi ttee concem ing B31G
as part of the upda te ser vice to the Manual. Th e interpretati ons ha ve beco assign ed numbe rs in

Th ese replies are ta ken ve rbati m from the originall ette rs, excep t for a few typogra phica l and
editori a l correcti ons made for the purpose of improved c1arity. In sorne instan ces, a review of
th e interpreta tion revealed a need for correc tions of a technical nature. In these cases, a revi sed
repl y bearing th e origi nal interp reta tion n umber wi th the suffix R is p rese nted . In the case wh ere
an in terp retati on is co rrected by er ra ta , the o riginal int er preta tion n umber with th e suffix E is used .
ASME p roced ures p rov id e for reco ns ideration of these nt erp re ta tions when or if addition al
