Lecture 06 Objective
Steel mill (making) versus linepipe fabricator Source material (plate, coil) Pricing contracts Mechanical property specification probably met Welding procedures may require assessment
Ref: JFE (2007)
Spiral or helical weld (SAWH) SMLS & SAWL Electron Beam Welded (EBW) and Laser Beam Welded (LBW) Multiple Welding Processes (MWP) Composite
Flexible
Seamless Linepipe
Use
General offshore due to field joint welding Nominal diameter (116) Nominal WT (0.0752) Dimensional tolerance
Dimensional Range
Characteristics
Wall thickness (+15%, -12.5%) Ovality and taper angle Cost premium for tighter control Surface stress concentration Steel slivers on grit blasting
Coatings

Use
LF ERW poor performance (stitching) Water injection and non-critical offshore service Nominal diameter (126) Nominal WT (0.051) Dimensional tolerance
Dimensional Range
Characteristics
Reduced cost to seamless Tight dimensional tolerance (e.g. 5% WT) reduced total cost Electrical resistance and molten steel
