There’s tough, and there’s offshore tough. All-position welding of critical structural applications—such as the TKY joints in offshore construction, pipe structures, bridges, and storage tanks—require ...

Process pipe and pipeline welding in the field remains one of the most challenging tasks in the world of manual welding, requiring a precise balance of skill, stamina and consistency. Welders face ...

Pipe spool welding is a complicated business. Diameters and wall thicknesses vary slightly; it’s just the nature of the beast. That makes fit-up an act of compromise and welding an act of adaptation.

In the 1960s, CRC Crose (now CRC Evans) developed mechanised gas metal arc welding (GMAW), initially with a 40 degree-included angle weld preparation and stringer beads, and subsequently with a narrow ...

Abstract: Welding simulation is done for the ultimate aim of optimizing the welding process in other to achieve the performance target and quality of the welded joint. In the case of the welding of ...
