WELDED PIPE [17 records]

Record 1 2024-02-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Oil Drilling
  • Long-Distance Pipelines
  • Ship and Boat Parts
  • Transport of Oil and Natural Gas
DEF

A rigid or articulated ramp attached to a pipe-laying barge, which serves as a catenary support for the welded pipe as it is lowered onto the sea bed.

OBS

The rigid stinger is in two curved, hinged parts, but the articulated type is made up of four or five sections, perhaps 100 metres long overall. Buoyancy controls can regulate the depth of the stinger to optimize the bending forces on the completed pipe on its way to the sea floor. A stinger may have to support some 300 to 400 metres of pipe.

OBS

Domaine(s)
  • Forage des puits de pétrole
  • Canalisations à grande distance
  • Parties des bateaux
  • Transport du pétrole et du gaz naturel
DEF

Rampe rigide ou articulée fixée à la barge qui assure la pose des oléoducs.

CONT

Points marquants. Éléments nouveaux [...] on peut retenir [...] dans le domaine de la pose des pipe-lines : [...] dans un avenir assez proche, lié au besoin de poser par plus grande profondeur, le développement de procédés différents de la méthode classique (par soudure et utilisation d'une élinde flottante ou «stinger») : la méthode de la courbe en S; la méthode de la courbe en J.

CONT

Le stingeur permet le contrôle de la courbure de l'oléoduc au sortir de la barge.

CONT

Pose avec barge et stinger, la plus fréquemment utilisée jusqu'à présent.

Record 2 2015-03-24

English

Subject field(s)
  • Oil Drilling
  • Long-Distance Pipelines
  • Types of Ships and Boats
DEF

A barge that is used in the construction and placement of underwater pipelines. Joints of pipe are welded together and then lowered off the stern of the barge as the barge is moved ahead.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Forage des puits de pétrole
  • Canalisations à grande distance
  • Types de bateaux
CONT

La construction de ces canalisations [oléoducs ou gazoducs] pose des problèmes difficiles. Les méthodes actuelles utilisent la technique dite de pose à l'avancement. La canalisation est construite par éléments de tube de 12 mètres qui sont soudés bout à bout, à bord de la barge de pose. La partie de la canalisation qui est en cours de pose décrit une courbe située entre le fond marin et la barge de pose. Après chaque soudure, la barge de pose avance de la largeur d'un tube et le profil de la partie suspendue se déplace parallèlement à lui-même. Afin d'assurer la stabilité du profil, la barge de pose exerce une tension sur la canalisation. Par ailleurs, celle-ci est soutenue dans la première partie de la courbe par une poutre articulée, le stinger, solidaire de la barge de pose.

OBS

... the proposed Mackenzie Valley pipeline... will bring natural gas from the Mackenzie River Delta in the Northwest Territories to markets in Canada and the United States.

Subject field(s)
  • Boring and Drilling (Mines)
  • Drilling and Boring (Construction)
CONT

Solid-stem augers consist of spiral flanges welded to a pipe. One length of pipe(or auger section) is called a flight; multiple auger sections are often referred to as continuous flighting. The leading auger flight has a special bit or cutter head attached that cuts a hole for the flights to follow. Flights are added as the hole is drilled deeper.

CONT

Hollow stem auger. A borehole drilling technique in which the rotation of spiral shaped flanges, or flights, serve to raise soil material to ground surface, having firstly been loosened or broken up by a cutting bit at the base of the auger. The central stem of the auger is hollow

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sondage et forage miniers
  • Sondage et forage (Construction)
CONT

Les tarières continues sont des vis sans fin, constituées de tiges hélicoïdales assemblées bout à bout. [...] L'avantage de cette technique par rapport à la tarière simple est qu'il n'est pas nécessaire de remonter l'outil après chaque passe car les sols sont remontés en continu le long des spires grâce au mouvement ascendant de l'hélicoïde généré par la rotation.

Subject field(s)

CONT

There are three principal types of augers used for well drilling : bucket augers, solid-stem augers, and hollow-stem augers.... Solid-stem augers consist of spiral flanges welded to a pipe. One length of pipe(or auger section) is called a flight; multiple auger sections are often referred to as continuous flighting. The leading auger flight has a special bit or cutter head attached that cuts a hole for the flights to follow. Flights are added as the hole is drilled deeper. Cuttings from the drilling process are brought to the surface by the action of the augers.... Hollow-stem augers are similar to solid-stem augers in design, except that drill rods can pass through the auger sections.... Because the flights are hollow, they can be used as temporary casing to hold the hole open while the permanent casing is installed. Wells drilled with hollow-stem augers have been used to construct water supply wells, but they are more often used to construct monitoring wells.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sondage et forage miniers
  • Sondage et forage (Construction)
CONT

Il existe deux types de tarières : les tarières creuses et les tarières pleines. Le principal avantage des tarières creuses par rapport aux tarières pleines est de permettre l'installation du puits d'observation sans avoir à retirer les tarières du sol. L'utilisation des tarières pleines n'est possible que dans les matériaux cohésifs car les parois du forage doivent rester verticales assez longtemps pour mettre en place le puits d'observation, la lanterne de sable et le bouchon d'étanchéité.

CONT

Les tarières creuses sont des tarières continues avec une lumière centrale dans laquelle est introduit un train de tiges dont l'extrémité est munie d'un taillant. Ce taillant permet de forer les sols qui sont remontés en surface par le mouvement ascendant de l'hélicoïde. Si l'on désire prélever un échantillon de sol, le train de tiges est remonté, le taillant est remplacé par un outil de prélèvement de sols (un carottier par exemple) descendu jusqu'au fond du forage.

OBS

tarière : Instrument qui sert à faire des forages, des sondages dans le sol.

Subject field(s)
  • Metal Forming
CONT

... pipes are manufactured in a continuous process on the pipe mill. Raw material, consisting of stainless steel purchased in the form of coils, is fed into the pipe mill and formed to round by five break down rolls and three fin pass rolls prior to welding. The pipe is then plasma welded.

CONT

The mills normally make use of three types of rolls to progressively form the flat steel section into the round form prior to welding. The three types are: break down or forming rolls, the idler vertical closing rolls and fin pass rolls. ... Breakdown rolls provide the initial shaping of the strip towards the round form. ... The fin pass rolls provide perfect guidance into the welding section and in addition coin the strip edges to provide the precise circumference.
