API meeting

I am currently at the API meeting in New Orleans. The day has been very disappointing. I found out that Addendum 1 for API-650 now will probably not be released until at least June. In fact the draft I have is incomplete. When released it should include new appendices X and SC. We shall see.

The other disappointment was that they did not review design or fabrication inquiries. They were scheduled to take place. However, it seems that all those inquiries we sent to API staff never made it to the heads of the committees in time to be sent out to the other committee members to review. Therefore, none of them are being reviewed at this meeting.

We will see if tomorrow is any more productive. We will continue to add to and update ITSdesign. We will also keep you updated on what is happening here at the committee meetings.
