The results show that with lath bainite microstructure of the pipeline steel than with acicular ferrite microstructure of the pipeline steel with lower yield ratio, at the same time lath bainite microstructure in small dispersed precipitates in pipeline steel X80 pipeline steel to reduce the yield ratio is beneficial, for high strength pipeline steel production technology to provide the theory basis.

X80 Pipeline Steel

The nominal yield ratio, true yield ratio and static toughness of five materials X80, X65, X60, X46 and Q235 have been tested in this paper. The yield ratio of pipeline steel is rising with the increase of strength level, which is inevitable for the high strength pipeline steel. Based on the analysis of static toughness calculated by the true stress-strain curve, it is indicated that the deformation energy of X80 pipeline steel after the necking process in the course of static tension is high comparatively, and the deformation energy of X80 pipeline steel before the necking process is closed to that of the pipeline steel X46 and X60 with low yield ratio. It is showed that the increase of yield ratio did not lead to the decline of the static toughness.

The effect of finish cooling temperature on microstructure and mechanical properties of X100 pipeline steels were investigated through SEM, TEM and mechanical tests. The results showed that the effect of finish cooling temperature on tensile strength of studied steels were slight in the temperature range of 180°C~500°C. The yield ratio, yield strength and impact toughness all presented peak value when the finish cooling temperature was 360°C, however, both the volume fraction and particle size of MA component at 360°C finish cooling temperature had the minimum values. As a brittle hardening phase in bainite the increased number and enlarged size of the MA component were the key factor of the decrease of the yield ratio and toughness. Therefore, rational choosing finish cooling temperature could optimize the morphology and distribution of MA component to make sure the required strength and toughness for the X100 pipeline steel production.

To develop 590/780MPa grade low yield ratio structural steel, the effects of ultra fast cooling (UFC) new process on microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated. The results showed that the low yield ratio and high strength can be obtained by proper phase compositions including relative soft phase and hard phase. For the process of UFC + air cooling, when UFC final cooling temperature was 521°C, 22.5% M-A second hard phases were distributed on bainite ferrite matrix in steel No.A2. The mechanical properties can meet requirement of 590MPa grade low yield ratio structural steel. For the process of air cooling + UFC, when UFC initial cooling temperature was 781°C, the multiphase composed of 28.3% ferrite and other bainite / martensite lath structure can ensure the high strength and low yield ratio of steel No.B1. And performance indexes can meet the requirement of 780MPa grade low yield ratio structural steel.

In the present study, X80 and X100 grade high deformability pipeline steels have been processed by using TMCP and followed two-stage cooling process. The microstructures of the X80HD (HD, high deformability) and X100HD steels were both characterized by ferrite-bainite dual phase. The grains sizes of ferrite were mostly less than 5μm and the volume fractions were about 20~25% in X80HD and 10~15% in X100HD steel. The bainite structure in X80HD steel was granular bainite (GB); while in X100HD steel large amounts of lath bainite (LB) were also formed besides GB, and bainite grains were much finer. Ferrite-bainite dual phase microstructure has large strain hardenability that resulting high strength and high deformability combination. Both the steels exhibit high strength/toughness in transverse direction and high deformability in longitudinal direction. The X100HD steel with more volume of LB and less volume of PF has higher strength but lower deformability than that of X80HD steel.

Strength And Toughness

A type of X80 grade high strength and toughness pipeline steel was designed and researched. The strengthening mechanism of the steel was analyzed by SEM, TEM and XRD, and the CO2corrosion behavior of the steel was simulated by high-temperature and high-pressure autoclave. The result shows that the microstructure of the base metal is mainly acicular ferrite with a small amount of granular bainite. Acicular ferrite consists of laths which occlude and interweave with each other, and there are many dislocation and carbonitrides distributing in acicular ferrite, which made the pipeline steel have good strength and toughness. Under the simulation of the actual working conditions, the activity of reactants is low at 30°C, so the corrosion rate is smaller at this temperature; the maximum of corrosion rate occurs at 60°C; when the temperature increases to 90°C, the corrosion rate is lower than that of 60°C, that is because hindering corrosion effect which take by the acceleration deposit of corrosion product is better than the acceleration corrosion reactions.

Girth Welds

This work presents an investigation of the ductile tearing properties for a girth weld made of an API 5L X80 pipeline steel using experimentally measured crack growth resistance curves (J-Δa curves). Use of these materials is motivated by the increasing demand in the number of applications for manufacturing high strength pipes for the oil and gas industry including marine applications and steel catenary risers. Testing of the pipeline girth welds utilized side-grooved, clamped SE(T) specimens and 3P bend SE(B) specimens with a weld centerline notch to determine the crack growth resistance curves based upon the unloading compliance (UC) method using a single specimen technique. The shallow-crack SE(B) specimen provides an R-curve which, albeit slightly more conservative, exhibits levels of J-values which are relatively comparable to the levels of J corresponding to the deeply-cracked SE(T) specimen at a fixed amount of crack growth, Δa. This experimental characterization provides additional toughness data which serve to evaluate crack growth resistance properties of pipeline girth welds using SE(T) and SE(B) specimens with weld centerline cracks.

Welding is a process for joining similar metals. Heat input and interpass temperature are important technical parameters that affect the welding temperature distribution field. 2D simulation of multi-pass compound groove of welding process for X80 pipeline steel is carried out by finite element software ANSYS, in which the distribution of T8/5 of welding filling layers is analyzed. The results show that the effect of heat input to T8/5 is significant. The T8/5 becomes longer with the increase of the heat input. Because of the obvious preheat influence of the preceding pass to the following, the T8/5 becomes longer with the increase of the weld pass quantity. When interpass temperature is equal to preheat temperature, the difference of the T8/5 on filling layer is tended to be insignificant. The T8/5 will be located within a reasonable range by choosing the appropriate heat input and interpass temperature.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of X70 pipeline steel with polygonal ferrite plus granular bainite were characterized using tensile tests, Charpy V-notch impact tests, drop weight tear tests, hardness tests and scanning electron microscopy. The results of experiment indicated that X70 pipeline steel with polygonal ferrite plus granular bainite showed an excellent combination of high strength and toughness. The base metal with polygonal ferrite plus granular bainite microstructure exhibited perfect mechanical properties in terms of the transverse yield ratio of 0.81, elongation of 46%, an impact energy of 335 J at -10 °C and a shear area of 90% at 0 °C in the drop weight tear test. The heat affected zone contained coarse grain zone and fine grain zone, which exhibited good low temperature toughness of 216 J at -10 °C. The weld metal primarily consisted of intragranularly nucleated acicular ferrites which led to the high strength and toughness.
