During reel-laying, repeated plastic strain is introduced into the pipeline which may, in combination with ageing, affect strength and ductility of the pipe material. The effect of reel-laying on the pipe material is simulated by small-or full-scale reeling simulations followed by mechanical testing according to corresponding standards.
