5" sch 80 6g / 2" ??? "thickwall" 6g tests

I will be taking tests on these Monday at 7am.. 5" is tig root, hotpass, then 7018 filler and cap.. 2" is tig all the way out.. These coupons will be xrayed.. How should i run the 2"?? Any pointers or tips on these I would appreciate. The tests are for a job in Pascagoula, MS @ Chevron Refinery "LNG" project.. Anyone wanting information on this job they are still hiring combo welders.. You will need to goto Mobile, AL to apply @ adress and name below. Job is paying 26.50/hr if you pass both tests 25.00/hr if you only pass 1..

5 inch pipe with 2 inch thick walls. Root and hot pass with tig then fill and cap with 7018. Sounds like their making it easy for you...no key hole.. Surprised their not using 9018 though.

Um,

Two things.
