Linepipe

Made for toughest requirements

voestalpine Grobblech GmbH is one of the world’s leading producers of linepipe plates. More than two million tons of sour-gas resistant linepipe plates and very tough linepipe plates for thick-walled deep-sea lines testify to the success of our high-quality products. As a partner to renowned pipe makers we provide outstanding product quality, reliable service and flexibility.

Eddy current testing system successfully implemented in commercial projects

We at voestalpine demonstrate the absence of local hard zones (LHZ) by eddy current method and hold the biggest track record of LSAW material in operation. Supported by industry’s supreme accuracy and highly automated testing equipment we provide our partners the basis for a cost efficient project execution in severe sour environments (high H2S).

Sour service in deep ocean

Extreme pressures in the deep ocean or sour service - Our linepipe plates can stand even the most difficult conditions. Our products are found in depths of up to 3,000 meters meters below the sea surface and also in the form of sour-gas-resistant linepipes. 

Our linepipe plates provide excellent toughness at low temperatures, best weldability and high uniform elongation for strain-based design. Available up to 18.7 m in length and with a weight up to 20 tons per plate.

Extreme sour service and corrosion resistance

Roll-bonded clad plates are used for the manufacturing of clad linepipes. In many cases the mixture of oil, gas and a wide range of chemical elements in riserpipes or linepipes used for the transport of oil and gas formes a highly corrosive environment. Only the highest-quality materials are capable of withstanding this aggressive medium. Our roll-bonded clad linepipe plates with corrosion-resistant cladding meet these highest corrosion requirements. 

Extremely low arctic temperatures and harsh environmental conditions

We are there with land lines up to 48 inches (1,220 mm) in diameter.

We provide excellent toughness at low temperatures and our service is tailored to the individual customer from the time the order is received until the material is loaded for on-time shipment and delivery.

Offshore

Made for harshest conditions

Whether in the Gulf of Mexico, in the North Sea or the Arctic, our thermomechanically rolled structural steels for the offshore industry are used worldwide. We deliver high-quality offshore structural steels for fixed and floating offshore platforms according to offshore standards EN 10225 (including NORSOK) and API as well as to a variety of other international standards and specifications.

Offshore plates for oil & gas

Our offshore plates for the oil & gas industry are used worldwide under the harshest conditions. Living continuous development of new products to meet more stringent requirements, we are able to provide prequalified arctic steel for extremely low temperatures. Using toughcore® TMCP plates with extreme high toughness, you are able to increase the level of safety for your offshore structure up to 140 mm thickness.

High-quality plates for efficient electric power generation

Larger monopiles require higher unit weights in cylindrical and tapered pipe lengths. We achieve these weights by welding together two to three plates and call the new unit an XL plate. This highly efficient and innovative welding technique utilizes a four-wire submerged arc welding system capable of producing up to 60-ton unit weights. 

These heavy units meet the growing requirements of offshore wind parks.

High-strength plates

As structures and machines become larger, the stresses in the components increase. High-strength steels with minimum yield strengths of 700 MPa or even higher up to 1100 MPa are capable of supporting these higher stresses and simultaneously lead to a decrease in the weight of structural members.

Thermomechanically rolled high-strength fine-grained steels combine excellent toughness with a very low carbon content and the low carbon equivalent and for an optimized weldability.

Shipbuilding steel plates

Our shipbuilding steel plates in normal and high-strength grades are used in offshore applications, platform  superstructures and for special ships in the oil and gas industries, such as floating production storage and offloading vessels (FPSO) and even stainless steel clad plates for icebreakers. 

We offer a wide range of dimensions and grades with best workability for ship manufacture, especially for welding: steel grades up to FH 36 and plates up to 140 mm thick and 3,950 mm wide. High-strength shipbuilding plates are certified e.g. by ABS in FQ70 up to 101.6 mm (4").

Chords & racks

In addition to supplying heavy plates, heads and cones, we produce specific pressed parts for the offshore industry. In a specially designed production process, we manufacture high-strength hot-formed components called chords for jack-up rigs. Additionally we offer extremely thick plates for gear racks.
