Pipeline thickness record
01 / Scope & context
This example records four illustrative thickness readings on an accessible carbon-steel pipe specimen at one location set. It demonstrates reporting structure only.
- Asset reference
- Sample line P-101 / Location set A
- Method
- Ultrasonic thickness measurement
- Sample date
- 18 September 2026
- Scope
- Four example circumferential measurement points
- Assessment status
- No acceptance criteria applied
02 / Measurement record
| Point | Clock position | Thickness (mm) | Observation |
|---|---|---|---|
| P-01 | 12 o’clock | 8.12 | Reading recorded |
| P-02 | 3 o’clock | 8.06 | Reading recorded |
| P-03 | 6 o’clock | 7.84 | Local variation recorded |
| P-04 | 9 o’clock | 8.09 | Reading recorded |
Clock positions describe the specimen cross-section. No whole-asset coverage is implied.
03 / Findings & limitations
The sample readings vary between 7.84 and 8.12 mm. A lower value at P-03 is recorded for discussion. No corrosion rate, remaining life or pass/fail conclusion is calculated.
- No real equipment was examined and no instruments were used.
- No material verification, calibration records or qualification claims are supplied.
- Measurements at selected locations cannot establish the condition of unexamined areas.
- An actual report would need agreed procedures, equipment traceability, competent review and the applicable assessment basis.
Next review item
In a real project, the responsible engineering team would review the examination basis, history, coverage and any need for further work before making an asset decision.
