Planti longpela -lain ges lain na ekspot paiplain i save muv i go long X70 moa yet longkatim wol tiknes na 'steel tonnage'na i no daunim presa bilong disain. Dispela bung bilong bikpela strong na kontrolebol weldabiliti i eksplenim as na X70 i save senisim X60/X65 long ol nupela, hai-kapasiti rot. Ol samting we i save kirapim disain em:

• Bikpela presa bilong wok long longpela-distens ges transmisin

• X70 PSL2– weldim lain paip wantaim ol mak bilong komposisen we i tait moa, ol mak bilong strong bilong en na ol i ken bihainim

API 5L i karamapim ol samting we i no gat 'seam' na ol samting we i gat 'weld', tasol ol 'long-distance', bikpela 'diameter' sistem i save dipen longweldim X70. Long PSL2 welded paip, ol pepa bilong projek i save tok olsem:

• Kondisen bilong givim (TMCP o Q+T, i dipen long rot bilong plet/koil)
• Tempereja na eneji we ol i kisim long Charpy
• NDT skop na frikwensi bilong weld sim na paip bodi
• Ol lo bilong bihainim ol samting long ain hat i go inap long paip we i pinis, wantaim ol tes risal na ol rekot bilong 'coating'

Ol wok bilong mil na ol plen bilong sekim na testim (ITPs) i save tanim ol dispela samting i go long ol step bilong prodaksen na ol plen bilong kisim ol sempel.

Dispela kombinesen i sapotimbikpela diamita na hevi wol, stret mak we ol i nidim long ol longpela ges trunklain na ol ofso ekspot lain we i ron long bikpela presa. Ol i putim ol samting bilong wokim na weldim bai strong bilong plet, strong bilong weldim na strong bilong HAZ olgeta i inapim ol X70 rikwaemen long ful saimferens.

Ol samting bilong LSAW X70 em:

• Ful-length UT bilong weld seam na paip bodi, wantaim RT long ol ples we ol i nidim
• Stress-rilif hat tritmen long ol tikpela-wol seksen long daunim residual stres na kamapim gut 'dimensional control'
• Tait tolerans long aut-bilong-raunnes na stretpela bilong sapotim fil bending na ofso instolesen

ERW / HFW X70

• Ol i wokim long hot-rol koil, brukim na wokim pastaim long hai-frikwensi welding bilong wanpela longitudinal sim.
• Ol i save yusim moa yet long ol liklik na namel diamita wantaim namel wol tiknes insait long ol sistem, ol 'loop' na ol 'station piping' we i stap long graun.
• Ol i save sekim gutpela bilong ol 'weld seam' long rot bilong NDT (UT/EC) long intanet; Ol spesifikasen bilong PSL2 i ken singautim ol lokal PWHT insait long weld na HAZ.

SSAW / SAWH X70

• Ol i wokim long 'coil' we ol i wokim long 'helical angle' wantaim ol 'arc welds' insait na ausait.
• Em i save givim gutpela yus long ol bikpela samting we ol 'spiral seam' i orait long en long 'design code' na 'project specification'.
• Planti taim ol i save givim wantaim ful-length UT bilong spiral weld, na RT we projek i nidim moa asurens.

Olgeta rot i stret longweld na HAZ samting i no slek moa long X70 papa materiel, wanpela bikpela samting taim ol i yusim gret long taim bilong bikpela hevi.

3 UOE na JCOE Wokim bilong X70 LSAW Paip

Rot bilong wokim ol plet i gat gutpela wok long bosim 'ovality', 'residual stress distribution' na 'overall dimensional stability'. Long X70 LSAW, tupela wantaimUOEnaJCOEplanti taim ol i save yusim ol lain, na sampela taim ol tim bilong projek i save askim olsem wanem ol i skelim long sait bilong enjiniaring.

Tebol 2 – Skelim bilong UOE na JCOE foming bilong X70 LSAW lain paip:

Seleksen namel long UOE na JCOE i save dipen moa long mil konfigurasen na projek miks na i no long ol bikpela pefomens difrens. Taim ol wok bilong wokim, weldim na skruim i kamap stret long ol samting we X70 i laikim, tupela rot wantaim inap long givim strongpela, liklik-ovalisesen paip bodi we ol i nidim long mekim wok long trunklain sevis.

 

 

 

 

X70 i ran klostu long antap bilong paiplain stres, olsem nakemikel disaini mas givim strong na strongpela pasin na i no pasim 'weldability'. Kabon ikwil (CE) na ol mak bilong 'microalloying' i stap insait long ol liklik hap tasol.

Tebol 3 – Ol 'indicative composition ranges' bilong 'welded API 5L X70' (PSL2, refrens):

Nb, V, Ti (total)	≈ 0.03–0.10	Wok bilong klinim ol wit na strongim ren

Ol samting we PSL2 i nidim long X70 welded paip em:

• Ol mak antap bilong CEIIW na/o PCM long holim ol 'preheat' na 'interpass' rikwaemen insait long wanpela mak we ol i ken mekim
• Ol mak long olgeta Nb+V+Ti na long ol wanwan 'microalloy' konten
• Ol opsenel kontrol long Cu, Ni, Cr na Mo long wankain olsem ol wok bilong weldim
• Ol narapela mak bilong strongim na strongim ol hevi-wol seksen o ol rot we i gat liklik -temperature

Dispela kain kontrol i kamap bikpela samting tru taimhai-strong X70i bung wantaim ol kolpela klaimet, ol bikpela disain fakta o ofso integresen.

 

 

Ol i ken givim welded X70 long wanpela bikpela envelop. Mill kapabiliti i putim ol mak tru, tasol ol projek seleksen i stap insait long ol mak daunbilo.

Tebol 4 – Ol mak bilong mak bilong weldim X70 lain paip (soim):
