The HDD process involves first preparing a directional borehole (with at least 2 significant deflections or bends), into which the pipeline is physically dragged. The substantial force required to drag...

It is a high strength steel with lean chemistry delivered in quenched and tempered condition, that combines high tensile properties with good Charpy-V notch toughness at low...

.../ISO15156 condition analyzed. For an oilfield user perspective (especially for service equipment), AM 718 questionably requires all its properties to match that of API6CRA bar stocks; however, both yield strength and impact toughness values of AM 718 products should closely match the minimum values...

Moreover, requirements were defined for the quality control of galvanic anode manufacture, including...

... of the traditional dual fillet weld. A thorough volumetric inspection was also specified, in addition to conventional magnetic particle testing, to confirm that full penetration of the corner weld was achieved. While both the weld design and the examination schedule exceed tank design minimum requirements...
