Abstract Scope |
Erosion-resistant high-manganese steel (HMS) has been developed for use as a slurry pipeline material in the oil sands mining industry. This presentation will describe the parallel development of welding technology (welding consumable, welding procedures) to join HMS pipe. Thermodynamic simulation, Design of Experiments (DoE), experimental welding, and physical testing were used to formulate and optimize the welding consumable chemistry, which has a unique combination of superior strength, toughness, erosion resistance, and weldability. Welding procedures were developed for the new application and were qualified per the project specification and industry code. Advanced microstructure analysis was conducted to assist the welding development effort. The welding technology has been applied in the field for the fabrication of a HMS slurry pipeline. |
