Measurement of fracture resistance of pipelines for strain based design / A. Fonzo, G. Melis, L. F. Di Vito, G. Mannucci, P. Darcis, G. Richard, H. Quintanilla [and] M. Armengol

“Modern design of off-shore pipelines often considers the possibility for the line to be subjected to axial loads well beyond the yielding point of the pipe material. In spite of this, the line can be still considered serviceable, taking advantage of the significant plastic reserve of modern steels, especially if applied loads come from a displacement controlled source. Strain based design accounts for severe loading conditions of pipeline and its girth welds, generating concerns on actual defect tolerance. To face such problem any reduction or over-conservatism in assessing critical wel defect is worth being investigated. Present paper deals with considerations regarding the techniques for fracture toughness measurement in pipeline girth welds.”

Possibilities for aboveground pipelines [paper] / Peter Tuft [and] Russell Schulz

“Installing gas pipelines aboveground may have a number of benefits depending on the circumstances of individual projects – for example to:

Reduce capital cost
Facilitate development of stranded reserves (which might otherwise be uneconomic)
Reduce environmental impact (reduced ground disturbance and right-of-way width)
Facilitate pipeline abandonment for fields of short life, including pipe reclamation and reuse.”
