Heavy Wall
Various technical challenges, such as extreme high pressure and temperature, high fatigue loads, or Ultra Deep Water applications, require to design the riser and flowline installations with wall thickness beyond 25mm.
Thanks to its expertise and experience Vallourec develops and delivers the highest standards for seamless pipes to address such needs. Those products can be offered for sour service conditions, low temperature applications and also in high strength X80.
Heavy Wall line pipes are generally defined as pipes with a wall thickness above 25 mm. Heavy wall pipe is specified for applications such as greater volume carried and greater internal pressures within the pipe. Sometimes wall thickness must be increased to support the external burden of the pipe and reply to fatigue sensitive challenges.
