Development of Optimized Welding Solutions for X100 Linepipe Steel

The overall objective is to gain fundamental understanding of factors affecting weld properties and utilizing that understanding to guide the selection of welding processes and the development and qualification of welding procedures for the production of high quality welds in high strength X100 line pipe. Weld quality will be considered in the context of productivity and other practical constraints.
