Miguez de Melo Research Center, CENPES/PETROBRAS 4SEQUI/PETROBRAS Abstract The introduction of digital radiography replacing conventional film radiography is becoming a reality in the inspection of materials and equipment. For this to happen in the oil and natural gas industry with quality, it is necessary to qualify and validate Radiographic Inspection Procedures, in particular for welding. This work is part of a project that aims at producing a comparative study between the techniques of film and computed radiography (CR) applied to weld inspection. For this purpose, images using five CR systems available on the market were obtained with their respective phosphor plates. Radiographic tests were performed with film and computed radiography for SWSI, DWSI and DWDI techniques. Test samples that consist of plates and steel pipes of different diameters and thickness were used. Radiographs were taken with X-ray and rays sources. The evaluation criteria for approval of the images were, namely, detectability (in comparison with film radiography) and the compliance with specific image quality parameters (contrast, basic spatial resolution and signal to noise ratio normalized). As a result of this study, the equipments that were able to reach positive results for specific ranges of thickness had their procedures duly validated, and are therefore apt to carry out reliable inspections for defect detection. Keywords: Computed Radiography, Inspection Procedure Validation, Weld Inspection. 1. Introduction In past few years, the use of digital radiography in replacing conventional film radiography is becoming a reality in the inspection of materials and equipment. Computed Radiography (CR) is proving itself to be an efficient technique and has been gaining relevance as a method of inspection which has several advantages over film radiography, especially for applications in the Oil & Gas industry. However, the test procedures are based in experimentations of trial and error due to the lack of an established methodology for choosing the parameters, as is the case with film radiography. Due to such lack of methodology, it is impossible to ensure that the CR technique is indeed able to detect the same types of defects as film radiography. In order for that to happen, it is necessary to validate inspection procedures, especially for welds, so as to establish an equivalence of detectability when compared to the conventional technique 1. Computed Radiography equipment are currently being manufactured by several companies who aim at working with NDTs. Each manufacturer produces its own phosphor plates, also known as imaging plates and IPs, according to their own specifications. All systems follow the same working principle, even though certain features may vary depending on the manufacturer, and that is the reason why it is of utmost importance to assess all responses with regard to the sensitivity of detection of discontinuities, such as the ones which are often found on welded joints 2,3. 11th European Conference on Non-Destructive Testing (ECNDT 2014), October 6-10, 2014, Prague, Czech RepublicThus, the main purpose of this study was to develop and validate procedures using CR on welding inspections in real field situations by using three radiography techniques and comparing them with the same techniques applied in film radiography. 2. Materials and methodology 2.1 Radiographic Testing Radiographic tests were performed with film and computed radiography for SWSI, DWSI and DWDI techniques. Test samples that consist of plates and steel pipes of different diameters and thickness were used. The images were considered approved once they achieved the required values for the following image quality parameters 4-10: Basic Spatial Resolution (BSR), Signal to Noise Ratio Normalized (SNRN) and contrast, besides defect detectability equivalent to the conventional film technique. Figure 1 portraits the test samples employed in the experiment and figures 2 to 4 show an illustration of the setup for each technique. Figure 1 Test Samples Figure 2 SWSI Setup Figure 3 DWSI Setup Figure 4 DWDI Setup Tables 1 to 3 show the test samples specifications, the exposure values and the image quality requirements for the three radiographic techniques.

For the VIII group thickness, none of the systems were able to detect all of the defects observed with conventional radiography, even though in some cases the image quality requirements were met (S4 and S5). With gamma ray sources, good results were obtained only for thicknesses up to the ones of group V (thickness range of Se-75), even though systems 2 and 5 managed to approve images for group VII. In this case, it is believed that the non-approval for group VI is due the kind of defect found on those test samples: it is a type of defect which is harder to detect than the ones of group VII. As it was the case for the X-Ray source inspections, none of the systems were able to detect all defects for the thicknesses of group VIII. For both radiation sources, there have been cases in which, although meeting the minimum image quality requirements, the images were not approved, since the detectability was not equivalent to the one of film radiography. Figures 5 and 6 display a comparison between the exposure values of the systems using the SWSI technique with X-ray and gamma ray sources, respectively. In such images, only the values for the groups considered approved are shown. 110100100010000Exposure (mA.s)IIIIIIIVVVIVIIGroupSWSI - X-RaysFilmS1S2S3S4S5 Figure 5 Exposure values for X-ray sources (SWSI). 1101001000Exposure (x103 Ci.s)IIIIIIIVVVIIGroupSWSI - -RaysFilmS1S2S3S4S5 Figure 6 Exposure values for gamma ray sources (SWSI). Analyzing the results obtained with an X-Ray source through the images shown above, a trend of exposure reduction can be observed if compared to conventional radiography, except for system 2, which displayed higher exposure values for thicknesses higher than the ones of group IV. However, with gamma-ray sources, the exposure was higher than the one used for conventional radiography for all of the systems.

With X-Ray sources, systems S3 and S4 were approved only for thicknesses up to 7.11 mm, regardless of their diameter, proving that such equipment is not reliable for inspecting larger thicknesses using the DWSI technique. On the other hand, systems 2 and 5 proved to be efficient for detecting defects in thicknesses of up to 12.7 mm. Using gamma ray sources, systems 4 and 5 were only able to detect defects for group IIs test samples. System 2 reached an equivalent detectability level for groups I and VII also. It is thus possible to ascertain that those test samples were manufactured with defects which were easier to detect. This explains how it was possible that the images of system 2 were approved for the thickness of 12.7 mm, even though it was impossible to visualize such defects in smaller thicknesses. Figures 9 and 10 display a comparison between the exposure values among the systems using the DWSI technique with X and gamma ray sources, respectively. Those figures show only the values for the groups considered approved. 110100100010000Exposure (mA.s)IIIVVIVIIXXIGroupDWSI - X-RaysFilmS2S3S4S5 Figure 9 Exposure values for X-ray sources (DWSI). 110100Exposure (x103 Ci.s)IIIVIIGroupDWSI - -RaysFilmS2S4S5 Figure 10 Exposure values for gamma ray sources (DWSI). By analyzing the results obtained with an X-Ray source, a reduction on the exposure values could be observed for systems 3, 4 and 5 only for thicknesses of up to 6.35 mm. This is due to the fact that, for those thicknesses, class 1 films were used for conventional radiography tests. It was also possible to observe that the exposure values for system 2 were much higher than the ones of conventional radiography for all of the approved thicknesses, reaching a factor of 115 times that value in the most extreme case. This large accrual is due to a limitation in this equipment when it comes to working with low laser power, generating images with less noise but with low signal intensity, which has to be compensated with the exposure time. For gamma-ray sources, higher exposure values were necessary when compared to conventional radiography so that the images could be approved, repeating therefore the behavior observed with the DWSI technique. Tables 20 and 21 show the systems final evaluation result using the DWSI technique with X and gamma ray sources, respectively. Table 20 Systems evaluation results using an X-Ray source (DWSI).

With X-Ray sources, system 5 was not tested, since the detectability results had already been obtained previously. Systems 3 and 4 (same manufacturer) presented good results only for thicknesses up to 3.91 mm. System 1 was able to detect discontinuities in thicknesses up to 6.36 mm. The groups with larger diameters could not be inspected with this system, since it presented technical issues. However, observing the results with smaller diameters, it is believed that it would have a good performance, if it had been tested. For gamma ray sources, none of the systems were able to detect the defects present on the test samples. Since the DWDI technique requires the magnification of the weld located on the source side, the large focal size of the gamma sources creates a very intense unsharpness, which is a determining factor for loss of detectability. Figure 13 shows the comparison among all systems for the exposure values using DWDI technique with an X-Ray source. On those images, only the values for the groups considered approved are shown. It is possible to observe that, as it is the case with the other techniques, the exposure time for system 2 was the highest when compared with the other systems. 1101001000Exposure (x102 mA.s)IIIIIIIVVVIIVIIIIXXXIIGroupDWDI - X-RaysS2S3S4 Figure 13 Exposure values for X-ray sources (DWDI).

Conclusions This paper aimed at analyzing the performance of five computed radiography systems for inspecting welded joints by using SWSI, DWSI and DWDI inspection techniques with both X-Ray and gamma ray sources. The systems had their inspection procedures approved for the radiography techniques and the sources used once the results produced discontinuity detection images whose quality was equivalent to conventional radiography. Such procedures, if reproduced according to the same test parameters described here, shall guarantee that the detectability will be reached for the evaluated thickness ranges. It was observed that the acceptable values for basic spatial resolution of the image (not superior to 100 m for X-Ray sources and 160 m for gamma ray sources, according to the observed penetration thickness order) and normalized signal-to-noise ratio (superior to 100) prescribed as a standard are perfectly coherent and attainable, though unable to guarantee detectability in 100% of the cases. It was possible to ascertain that the effects caused by the fading and by the sensitivity to low-energy radiation was crucial when using gamma ray sources. All approved procedures used sources with activity higher than 30 Ci, on average. When activity reduction by natural decay was observed, an increase on the exposure time, even though common practice in conventional radiography, did not prove to be beneficial and the images were not approv
