Abstract (en)

[origin: CA2940121A1] The invention relates to a method for producing hot-rolled seamless pipes (1) from transformable steel, in particular for pipelines for deep-water applications. The pipe ends (3) are hot-upsetted in order to achieve a thickened wall portion after a final rolling process of the pipes (1). The aim of the invention is to produce pipes with excellent fatigue, corrosion, and welding properties. This is achieved in that a pre-selected ratio between a wall thickness of the pipe end (3) and a wall thickness of a wall body (2) adjoining the pipe end (3) is set by the hot-upsetting process such that a pipe (1) is achieved with a pipe end (3) which has a lower strength than the pipe body (2) after a uniform tempering process of the entire pipe (1) following the hot-upsetting process by using a previously ascertained wall thickness-dependent cooling rate during the tempering process.
