... be further used for crack assessment. Finally, the remaining life of dented pipes with and without cracks is presented using the FE analyses results. dent assessment crack assessment strain damage buckling capacity crack growth fitness for service local buckling plastic collapse Proceedings...

... wall plastic deformation and a disturbance in the curvature of the pipe. Since not all dents affect the fitness for service (FFS) of a pipeline, dents identified by in-line inspection (ILI) tools need to be properly evaluated to determine the severity. This article provides a methodological framework...

... sensitive applications such as sour service. These requirements intend to complement the approach currently adopted by the industry and ensure the fitness for service of cold field bends. Keywords: cold field bends, bending machine, finite element analysis, ABAQUS, residual stress, plastic strain...

... of the exposed pipeline sections is a vital consideration to assess the fitness of the exposed pipeline sections for continued service. A fitness for service engineering assessment methodology that was successfully used for the assessment of an NPS 10 onshore natural gas pipeline exposure is presented herein...

... Fitness for Service Skelp-End Weld Spiral Pipe For large diameter spiral pipes, there can be one skelp-end weld (SEW) in every 5–7 joints of pipes. The industry acceptance of SEWs is uneven although API 5L permits SEWs in finished pipes. A joint industry project (JIP) [1] was formed...
