Beneath our feet and spanning continents, a vast network of steel line pipe works tirelessly to transport the vital resources that power our world. Specifically engineered for the conveyance of oil, natural gas, refined products, and sometimes water over long distances, line pipe is a product where safety, integrity, and durability are non-negotiable.
Manufactured primarily through high-frequency welding (HFW) or submerged arc welding (SAW) processes, line pipe is subject to some of the most stringent international standards. It is characterized by its high yield strength, toughness to prevent crack propagation, and often, special coatings or linings to combat internal and external corrosion. From offshore pipelines facing immense pressures to cross-country transmission networks enduring seismic shifts and temperature extremes, this pipe is designed for a lifetime of service in demanding environments. Its continuous development in metallurgy and welding technology ensures the efficient and secure flow of energy, underpinning global economic stability and modern life.
