Description

Seamless steel pipe for pipeline and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of steel pipe manufacturing, in particular to a seamless steel pipe for a pipeline and a preparation method thereof.
Background
With the gradual shrinkage of onshore oil and gas resources, the field of human petroleum exploitation is gradually transited to the sea, and from shallow sea to deep sea, the human marine industry is building petroleum exploration and production systems to deeper sea areas, which is a trend of the world marine oil and gas industry. With the increasing water depth, technical equipment developed in deep water is continuously facing new challenges. Offshore platforms and riser systems are constantly being developed, and oil and gas production and storage platforms have complex motion characteristics under the action of the ocean, thus placing strict requirements on risers connecting subsea pipelines and platforms.
The pipeline pipe refers to a seamless steel pipe for oil and gas transportation laid on land or suspended on the sea floor or suspended on an ocean platform, wherein a marine oil riser is suitable for deep sea oil and gas transportation, and the marine riser is shown in figure 1. In FIG. 1, the part of the pipeline 3 hanging from the platform is the marine riser, wherein in FIG. 1, 1 is the drilling platform, 2 is the horizontal plane, 4 is the submarine pipeline, and 5 is the sea depth (for example ≧ 1500 meters).
The seamless steel pipe for pipelines and the pipe for marine oil and gas, particularly the marine riser, have extremely severe use environment, are influenced by factors such as self gravity, surge, vortex-induced vibration, deep water pressure, ocean current environment and the like, and are also subjected to sea salt and seawater corrosion, and the suspension section and the line section thereof generate floating motion in the ocean and interact with the ocean floor along with the influence of the ocean current, and are extremely easy to generate fatigue damage. Therefore, the steel pipe requires not only higher strength, lower yield ratio, elongation of more than 25%, but also good low temperature toughness and higher CTOD value and fatigue failure resistance. In order to meet excellent welding performance, carbon equivalent Epcm is required, and P and S elements are particularly required, the overall design idea of the steel grade is low-carbon microalloy and excellent welding performance, but certain tensile property and low yield ratio are ensured to ensure the safety of long-term service.
The size precision of seamless steel pipes for pipelines, especially marine service risers, is an important factor affecting fatigue performance. Because the pipe is suspended under an ocean platform and is impacted by ocean waves, the centers of all pipe ends are ensured to be consistent as much as possible, fatigue cracks are reduced, and the service life of decades of years is ensured. In addition, when the marine riser is laid on the sea, the requirement on the size precision of the steel pipe is strict due to the limitation of a site, the technical index in the aspect of main size requires the wall thickness precision of the end of the steel pipe to be +/-1 mm, and the deviation of the inner diameter of the end of the steel pipe is controlled to be +/-0.25 mm. The traditional seamless steel tube production mode is difficult to meet the requirements of the marine riser. The hot rolled steel pipe and the internal boring external raking are adopted, the requirement on size precision can be met, but the marine vertical pipe is long, the length of the marine vertical pipe is larger than 12m, the boring rod naturally droops under the action of gravity during internal boring, the processing force of the middle part of the steel pipe is insufficient, so the processed size cannot meet the requirement, and in addition, the waste metal is overlarge and the cost is high due to the adoption of the internal boring external raking mode. In addition, the method of seamless steel pipe and cold rolling can only meet the size requirement of partial thin-wall small-caliber steel pipes, and the cold rolling of steel pipes with medium and large calibers and wall thicknesses of more than or equal to 20mm has the defects of large rolling resistance, extremely low production efficiency, higher cost and the like. By adopting the common seamless steel pipe, cold drawing method and heat treatment production process, although the wall thickness precision can meet the requirements, the inner diameter of the steel pipe cannot meet the requirements in the subsequent heat treatment and straightening processes. In addition, seamless steel pipes for pipelines, particularly marine risers, have requirements on weight, thick wall thickness and heavy weight, and inner holes have enough machining allowance, but the whole riser platform bears larger force, so that the service safety is influenced. The steel pipe wall is thin and light, the machining allowance of the inner hole of the subsequent pipe end is not enough, and the subsequent pipe end has poor size and cannot be made into a material. Therefore, the size of the vertical pipe needs to be designed comprehensively, so that the size and weight deviation can be met, the subsequent pipe end machining is not influenced, and a balance point needs to be found among the size, the weight and the machining allowance of the steel pipe.

Further, C: 0.08-0.11%, si: 0.25-0.45%, mn:1.35 to 1.55 percent of Ni, less than or equal to 0.015 percent of P, less than or equal to 0.003 percent of S, 0.01 to 0.10 percent of Cu, ni: 0.20-0.30%, cr:0.15 to 0.20%, mo:0.15% -0.25%, V:0.02% -0.03%, nb:0.01 to 0.02 percent of Ti: < 0.01, al:0.025% -0.045%, N: 0.003-0.008%, B is less than or equal to 0.0005%, ca: less than 0.005%, al/N > 2.0 pcm Less than or equal to 0.22 percent, less than or equal to 0.010 percent of Sn, less than or equal to 0.010 percent of As, less than or equal to 0.005 percent of Pb, less than or equal to 0.005 percent of Sb, less than or equal to 0.005 percent of Bi, and the balance of Fe and inevitable impurity elements. The main design idea is low carbon and microalloy, reduces P, S and five harmful elements, adopts large rolling ratio, crushes and casts dendritic crystal, and obtains finer grain size. The hardenability of proper steel grade is designed to obtain a lower bainite metallographic structure with certain strength and high toughness, so that good mechanical properties and low carbon equivalent CE are obtained pcm And the excellent welding performance of the steel pipe is ensured. Wherein P is less than or equal to 0.015 percent, S is less than or equal to 0.003 percent, the content of harmful elements in the steel is reduced, and the quality stability of the steel is ensured so as to ensure the toughness and CTOD performance of subsequent steel.
Wherein, CE pcm :=C+Mn/6+(Mn+Cu+Cr)/20+Ni/60+Mo/15+V/10+5B。
Hereinafter, the reason why the chemical components of the seamless steel pipe for line pipe according to the present invention are defined as above will be described, wherein "%" indicating the content (concentration) of the chemical composition means "% by mass".
C:0.06%~0.12%
C is a carbide forming element, can effectively improve the strength and the hardenability of the steel, the strength of the steel is improved along with the increase of the carbon content, but the impact toughness and the elongation rate are obviously reduced, and the welding performance is not favorable, therefore, the content of C is controlled to be 0.06-0.12 percent, the strength and the toughness of the steel can be maintained, and the welding performance is not influenced.
Mn:1.35%~1.65%
Mn is an austenite forming element, can improve the strength of the steel pipe, can improve the hardenability of the steel pipe and reduce the quenching temperature, has the effects of deoxidation and desulfurization, and can weaken the adverse effect of sulfur, but when the content of Mn is too high, the Mn has the sensitivity of coarsening crystal grains and increasing the temper brittleness, and is not favorable for the toughness of the seamless steel pipe, particularly the low-temperature impact toughness and the CTOD value. Therefore, the upper limit of the Mn content is set to 1.65%, and the lower limit of the Mn content is preferably set to 1.35%, and the lower limit of the Mn content is preferably set to 1.45%, in order to ensure emphasis and increase quenching.
Si:0.10%~0.45%
Si can remove oxygen in steel, so that the toughness of the steel pipe is improved, the development of temper brittleness is promoted by too high Si content, the plasticity is reduced, and the welding performance is influenced by too high Si content. Moreover, the heat-transmitting capacity of Si is poor, and the rolling defects such as inward folding, cracks and the like are easy to occur in the billet rolling process due to the addition of more Si. Therefore, as required for deoxidation, the minimum Si content is set to 0.1%, and the upper limit of the Si content is set to 0.45%.
Cr:0.12%~0.25%
Cr is a carbide forming element, so that the strength and the hardenability of the steel pipe can be improved, and meanwhile, complex carbide formed by Cr and Fe is fine and difficult to dissolve, so that grains can be refined, the tempering stability can be improved, but the brittleness transformation temperature of the steel is improved and the low-temperature impact toughness of the steel is reduced due to the overhigh Cr, and the welding performance is influenced.
Mo:0.15%~0.25%
Mo can improve the hardenability of steel, improve the strength of the steel by forming carbides which are dispersed and distributed on grain boundaries, refine crystal grains and improve the tempering stability of the steel, and can reduce or inhibit the tempering brittleness caused by other elements, so that the impact toughness and the CTOD value of the steel are obviously improved while the strength of the steel is improved. However, too high Mo content affects the weldability and toughness.
V:0.01%~0.05%
V is easy to form extremely stable carbide and nitride with C and N in steel, and vanadium carbide and vanadium nitride are usually present in the steel in a fine and dispersed form, so that the structure and crystal grains of the steel can be obviously refined, the coarsening temperature of the crystal grains is increased, the overheating sensitivity of the steel is reduced, the strength and the toughness of the steel are simultaneously improved, a secondary hardening phenomenon can be formed in the tempering process when the content is higher, and simultaneously the vanadium carbide and the vanadium nitride can be separated out from the interior of the crystal grains to reduce the toughness of the steel.
Ni:0.15%~0.45%
Ni is a main alloy element for forming and stabilizing austenite, can exist in steel in a form of being mutually soluble with Fe to improve the strength of the steel, and simultaneously improves the low-temperature toughness of the steel and reduces the low-temperature brittle transition temperature of the steel and improves the CTOD value by refining alpha-phase grains, which has an extremely important effect on the use of the riser in the marine low-temperature environment, but the Ni content is too high and is easy to saturate, and is unfavorable for the welding performance of the steel.
Al:0.025%~0.060%
Al is a good deoxidizer in steel, can be matched with Si to remove oxygen in raw materials, can generate highly-finely-divided and ultra-microscopic oxides, can effectively prevent the growth of crystal grains during steel heating, and can refine the crystal grains. Because the deoxidation effect of Al is saturated and inclusions are prevented from appearing in a lump form, but excessive Al added to Cr-containing steel can form a layer of more compact iron oxide scale on the surface of the steel pipe, which is not easy to remove under high pressure water, the upper limit of the Al content is 0.060%.
P: less than 0.015%
P segregates at grain boundaries and it is difficult to obtain a uniform structure, and since little P increases the susceptibility of the steel to temper embrittlement, P increases the brittleness, particularly low temperature brittleness, of the steel, so that the content of P should be minimized. The P content is set to 0.015%, more preferably 0.010%.
S: less than 0.003%
S forms sulfide inclusions, which seriously reduce the ductility and toughness, particularly impact toughness and CTOD value, of the steel, so that the S content should be minimized to 0.003% at maximum.
B:0.0005% or less
B has an effect of improving hardenability, but the content of B exceeding 0.0005% promotes the formation of coarse grain-boundary carbides, resulting in a decrease in toughness of the steel. Therefore, the B content is set to 0.0005% at the maximum.
Nb:0.010~0.040%
Nb is used as rare earth element, and can play a role in refining grains. It forms carbide and nitride with C and N in steel to inhibit austenite in steel from growing by heating, but it is easily saturated, so the Nb content is designed to be 0.010 to 0.040%.
Ca:0.001~0.005%
A small amount of Ca is added to fix the impurity element S to form a ball-shaped object, which is beneficial to the toughness and the CTOD value of the steel. However, ca in steel is easily saturated, and therefore, ca is designed to be: 0.001 to 0.005 percent.
CE pcm :≤0.22%。
CEpcm: = C + Mn/6+ (Mn + Cu + Cr)/20 + Ni/60+ Mo/15+ V/10+5B, when the carbon equivalent CEpcm is less than or equal to 0.22%, high strength can be obtained simultaneously, the toughness and brittleness performance and the CTOD value are excellent, and the welding performance is good. When CEpcm > 0.22% in carbon equivalent, the strength becomes high, the CTOD value becomes drastically poor, and the impact and weldability become poor.
In the pipeline steel pipe, ti, W, N, as, sn, pb, sb and Bi bring impurity elements or unnecessary added elements for smelting, and the impurity elements are removed or not added As much As possible, and the balance is Fe.

The tapping conditions of electric furnace smelting are as follows: the molten steel temperature is as follows: 1620-1650 ℃, less than or equal to 0.008 percent of P and less than or equal to 0.05 percent of C. The electric furnace smelting adopts the following steps that the ratio of low-titanium low-boron high-aluminum slag to lime is about 1 to 4.

A vacuum degassing process: VD vacuum degree is less than or equal to 67Pa, and holding time is more than or equal to 15min. After VD (vacuum degassing), feeding pure calcium core-spun yarn 0.7-2.0 m/t for calcium treatment; the time for blowing protective argon is more than or equal to 10min.
In one embodiment of the invention, two groups of electromagnetic stirrers are used in the crystallizer during the arc-shaped continuous casting process to homogenize the composition of the molten steel and reduce composition segregation. The withdrawal speed is controlled to be 0.3-1.0 m/min, the superheat degree is controlled to be 19-25 ℃, and the withdrawal speed and the superheat degree are controlled in the ranges, so that the structural segregation degree of a seamless steel tube product is favorably improved, and the impact toughness is favorably improved. Arc continuous casting to obtain circular pipe blank with circular cross section.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the external refining process further comprises deep dephosphorization, desulfurization and reduction of Pb, sn, as, sb and Bi contents, i.e., deep dephosphorization, desulfurization and five-harm reduction processes. The contents of P, S and five-harmful elements are low, thereby ensuring various physical and chemical properties and the service safety of the steel pipe.
Wherein, dephosphorization needs better thermodynamic and kinetic conditions, slag needs higher alkalinity and oxidability, slag fluidity is required to be good, and steel slag interface reaction is strong. Metallurgical theory and electric arc furnace steelmaking practice show that the P content in steel is related to the slag amount of electric furnace tapping. The larger the slag quantity is, the higher the P content in the slag is, and the stronger the reducibility of the ladle slag is, the larger the phosphorus return amount of the molten steel is, so that the control of the slag quantity of the electric furnace and the reduction of the P content in the electric furnace slag are the keys for reducing the phosphorus return amount of the molten steel. The electric furnace is operated by adopting oxygen melting and combining processes, the electric furnace operation steps are carried out according to the electric energy consumption, powder spraying is started when 70% -80% of the electric energy is melted, and the whole process of foaming slag process is carried out. The electric furnace adopts an intensified dephosphorization technology, the main task in the early stage of oxidation is dephosphorization, and a steel sample is taken out at 1600 ℃ in the final stage of oxidation. When steel making is carried out, the steel can be tapped only when P is less than or equal to 0.008 percent.
The desulfurization process requires that S is less than or equal to 0.008 percent for general corrosion-resistant pipeline pipes. The lower the S content in the steel, the better, studies have shown that the CTOD (crack tip displacement cracking) value of the steel pipe is higher when S is less than or equal to 0.003%. Therefore, the marine riser is required to have a sulfur content of 0.003% or less as much as possible. Based on the traditional desulfurization slag system, the invention provides a desulfurization slag system containing BaO and Li 2 The deep desulfurization slag system of O comprises the following components: caO 40-60%, siO 2 2%~10%,Al 2 O 3 15%~30%,BaO 5%~15%,Li 2 0.1 to 2 percent of O and 3 to 10 percent of MgO. Theoretical studies show that: the optical basicity of BaO is 1.15 times of that of CaO, and theoretically, the desulfurization effect of BaO is better than that of CaO. According to the theoretical analysis of an ionic structure, the ionic radius of BaO in the slag liquid is larger than that of CaO, the ionic attraction is smaller, and the ionic percentage BaO is higher than that of CaO, so that BaO can release oxygen ions more easily, and the desulfurization capacity of BaO with the same mole number is larger than that of CaO; the melting point of BaO is 1918 ℃, the melting point value of the refining slag can be effectively reduced by replacing a high-melting-point material with a low-melting-point material, and the influence on the slag-steel interfacial tension is hardly generated. Li 2 The optical basicity of O is 1.0, like CaO 2 O can react with SiO in the slag 2 Formation of phase 2Li of low melting point (900 ℃ C.) 2 O·SiO 2 And the melting point of the whole slag system is reduced. In addition, li 2 O itself has strong alkalinity and low relative atomic mass, which also results in good desulfurization effect.

The seamless steel pipe for the pipeline can be used for common land oil and gas pipelines and is more suitable for deep-sea risers. The invention designs corresponding chemical components, and obtains the lower bainite in a metallographic structure with the volume of more than 80 percent and the grain size of more than or equal to grade 8 through large rolling ratio rolling and precise heat treatment. The steel grade has good hardenability, and even a thick-wall steel pipe with the wall thickness of 30-50 mm can ensure the central quenching effect of the wall thickness of the steel pipe. The low-temperature impact-resistant and high-temperature-resistant composite material has excellent low-temperature impact property and high CTOD value, and can obtain proper tensile property and excellent welding property.
According to the periodic roll pass provided by the invention, a steel pipe with excellent wall thickness precision is rolled, and then a finished steel pipe is obtained through the technological routes of high-precision cold drawing, precise heat treatment and pipe end machining, so that the finished steel pipe is high in yield and excellent in dimensional precision.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a tube rolling process includes billet preparation, piercing, rolling, and sizing operations. Cold saw cutting and blanking a round pipe blank obtained by arc continuous casting, heating the round pipe blank in an annular furnace to 1220-1300 ℃ to obtain a hot blank with good plasticity; perforating the hot blank to obtain a capillary; rolling the hollow billet into a pierced billet by using a tube rolling mill set; and sizing the pierced billet to obtain the hot-rolled seamless steel pipe.
In one embodiment of the present invention, a billet is prepared: the heating process of the blank sequentially comprises a preheating section heating, a heating section I heating, a heating section II heating, a heating section III heating, a heating section IV and a soaking section; wherein the heating time of the blank heated into the hot blank is determined according to the diameter of the continuous casting round blank. The preheating section heats the blank to the temperature of less than or equal to 940 ℃; heating the blank to 960-1040 ℃ in the heating I section, heating the blank to 1070-1150 ℃ in the heating II section, heating the blank to 1180-1240 ℃ in the heating III section, and heating the blank to 1230-1310 ℃ in the heating IV section. The temperature of the soaking section is kept between 1240 ℃ and 1280 ℃, and the heating time and the total heating time of each section are determined according to the diameter of the continuous casting round pipe billet. Through the sectional heating, the tube blank is gradually heated to the set temperature, the tube blank is fully heated, and the defect that the hot rolled steel tube is cracked due to too fast temperature rise is avoided.

In one embodiment of the invention, the tube rolling is performed by a periodic tube rolling mill, or by other tube rolling mills, and the pierced blank tube is rolled by the periodic tube rolling mill to obtain a pierced blank tube. The periodic rolling pipe is arranged in a roll pass, the rough rolling and the finish rolling are completed, the deformation is large, steel is in a three-way compressive stress state in the roll pass, several deformation modes of forging, rolling and extruding are integrated, the small defects of a casting blank can be welded, the cast dendritic crystal can be effectively crushed, and the fine structure of crystal grains can be obtained. The rolling ratio of the periodic tube rolling process adopted by the invention, namely the cross-sectional area ratio of the blank to the steel tube, is not less than 8, compared with the traditional continuous rolling process, the billet deformation is larger, the better effect of crushing dendritic crystals is brought, the small defects of the welded casting blank are overcome, and the texture grain size after hot rolling is not less than 7 grade.
According to the manufacturing method of the seamless steel tube, in the process of processing the seamless steel tube from the blank, the tubular billet is rolled by the periodic tube rolling unit to obtain the pierced billet. Because the weight of the steel pipe is limited, particularly the weight of the marine riser is heavier, the bearing capacity of a water surface platform is larger, the wall thickness of the marine riser cannot be rolled without limitation, and the rolling of the wall thickness of the steel pipe is thin or the wall thickness is single, so that the subsequent pipe end cannot be scrapped due to insufficient machining allowance, or the wall thickness of the steel pipe is still poor or single after the pipe end inner hole is machined, therefore, the wall thickness deviation and the straightness of the steel pipe are well controlled, and the marine riser is the basis for subsequent machining. Although there is a cold drawing process for correcting the outer diameter and wall thickness of a hot-rolled pipe, there is a limit to improvement in the correction, and it is still necessary to control the wall thickness variation of the steel pipe in the hot-rolling process.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a periodic roll pass is provided having the effect of improving the wall thickness of a steel pipe. In order to improve the wall thickness deviation of the steel pipe, increase the length of the working section of the roller, reduce the side wall angle of the roller pass and design a reasonable roll gap value, the roller is more suitable for rolling the steel pipe between 15 and 50 mm. The periodic roll pass is divided into a forging section, a finish rolling section and an idle rolling section. The side wall angle of the finish rolling section of the roll pass is designed to be 20-22 degrees, and the roll gap value of the roll is designed to be 50-60 mm.
The roll forging section is a main reducing diameter and wall area of the roll, the curve adopts an envelope curve, the central angle of the envelope curve is 80-90 degrees,

The finish rolling section further rolls the rough pipe rolled by the forging and rolling section uniformly, so that the wall thickness of the rough pipe meets the size requirement, the radius of the bottom of a rolling groove of the finish rolling section is unchanged, the curve of the bottom of the rolling groove adopts a straight line, and the central angle of the finish rolling section is 65-80 degrees.
The function of the final rolling section is to gradually separate the surface of the pierced billet from the roller, and the central angle of the final rolling section is 15-20 degrees.
The roller is not contacted with the steel pipe in the idle rolling section, and the curve can be formed by one or a combination of a parabola, an envelope line and an arc.
In a typical embodiment of the present invention, a dedicated mandrel bar is further prepared in the tube rolling pass, and the difference in outer diameter between the head and the tail of the mandrel bar is controlled to be within 1mm, thereby preventing the longitudinal wall thickness from being uneven due to the difference in outer diameter of the mandrel bar.
The pierced billet after the peripheral rolling has fine grains, and can be directly sized to obtain the hot-rolled seamless steel pipe without on-line normalization. The steel pipe can also be normalized on line, the temperature of the steel pipe is cooled to be below 550 ℃ after the periodic rolling, and the steel pipe is reheated and sized, so that the grain size is better.
Cold drawing process
The cold-drawing die for improving the integral wall thickness of the steel pipe is designed, and the obtained steel pipe has the advantages of uniform wall thickness and small ovality of the outer diameter.
The steel pipe obtained by hot rolling is not satisfactory in dimensional variation and weight variation, and therefore, cold drawing is required. In a typical embodiment of the present invention, an inner die and an outer die are cold-drawn, and cooling water is added on both sides of the outer die, which is schematically shown in fig. 2, to reduce the outer diameter deviation of the steel pipe head and tail caused by the expansion of the outer die due to friction heating of the die during cold-drawing, which leads to the beginning of cold-drawing and the end of cold-drawing, and the difference of the average outer diameters of the steel pipe head and tail after cold-drawing is less than or equal to 0.1mm. And a process of cooling the cold-drawing outer die by cooling water is not adopted, the difference value of the average outer diameters of the head and the tail of the steel pipe after cold drawing is 0.2-0.4 mm, the influence on the common steel pipe is small, but the value of the difference value influences the wall thickness of the pipe end after machining, so that one end is thicker than the other end.
In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, cold drawing includes preparation before cold drawing and cold drawing processes, and the preparation before cold drawing includes acid washing, phosphating and saponification.
Acid pickling

Wherein, the mass concentration of the hydrochloric acid solution is controlled between 10 percent and 20 percent, and the pickling time is controlled between 60min and 100min, so as to obtain the pickled steel pipe.
Phosphating
And (2) carrying out outer surface phosphating treatment on the acid-washed pierced billet by using a zinc phosphate solution to generate a chemical coating of zinc phosphate, wherein the mass concentration of the zinc phosphate solution is controlled to be between 30 and 35 percent, the temperature of the zinc phosphate solution is controlled to be between 50 and 80 ℃, and the phosphating time of the acid-washed pierced billet is controlled to be between 30 and 60 minutes to obtain the phosphated steel pipe.
Saponification
And (2) saponifying the phosphated pierced billet by saponification liquid to form a metal soap lubricating coating on the surface of the pierced billet, wherein the temperature in the saponification process is controlled to be 60-80 ℃, the saponification time is controlled to be 20-35 min, and the pH value of the saponification liquid is controlled to be 8.5-9.5 to obtain the saponified steel pipe.
Cold drawing
And (3) carrying out a cold drawing process on the saponified steel pipe by a drawing machine, wherein the drawing force of the drawing machine is 300-1250 tons, and the cold drawing speed of the drawing machine is 0.85-1.25 m/min. Cold drawing belongs to non-austenite zone deformation, and compared with hot rolling, the external diameter precision and the wall thickness of the cold drawing are obviously improved. The size of the cold-drawn steel pipe is mainly determined by a cold-drawing die, after cold drawing, the precision of the outer diameter of the pipeline steel pipe is within +/-0.5 mm, the out-of-roundness of the outer diameter is less than or equal to 0.5mm, and the wall thickness eccentricity is less than or equal to 6 percent S.
Heat treatment of
After cold drawing, the obtained seamless steel pipe is subjected to thermal refining. CCT (super cooled austenite continuous cooling) curve of X65 grade mark obtained by simulation is shown in fig. 3. As can be seen from FIG. 3, the bainite structure was obtained after the cooling rate was 10 to 100 ℃/S. The cooling speed is 1-10 ℃/S, the structure is converted into ferrite in the cooling process, and the mechanical property can not meet the requirement of X65 steel grade. According to the principle of metallurgy, eutectoid steel obtains upper bainite at 550-350 ℃ and lower bainite at 240-350 ℃. In the lower bainite structure, carbide is dispersed in the ferrite matrix to play a role in dispersion strengthening, so that the strength and toughness of the steel can be obviously improved, and the ductile-brittle transition temperature is lower. This is the tissue that needs to be obtained in the present invention.
Heating and heat preservation are carried out on the steel pipe with the original fine grain structure (the grain size is more than or equal to 7 grade) obtained by cold drawing in the temperature range of 880-1000 ℃, and the heat preservation time is determined according to the wall thickness of the steel pipe. After the quenching furnace is taken out, the quenching furnace is internally sprayed and externally sprayed for forced cooling, and the average cooling speed is as follows: 10 to 100 ℃/S, preferably not less than 20 to 100 ℃/S, more preferably 30 to 100 ℃/S, and the steel pipe is forcibly cooled to 50 ℃ or less, more preferably 30 ℃ or less. The steel structure is transformed as much as possible, namely, the austenite is transformed into the bainite; tempering the cooled steel pipe at 660-700 ℃, and properly determining the heat preservation time according to the wall thickness of the steel pipe to obtain tempered bainite, which mainly comprises granular, needle-shaped and island-shaped bainite, the proportion of the tempered bainite is more than or equal to 80 percent, and a small amount of ferrite and carbide are dispersed and distributed. The grain size of the quenched and tempered steel pipe is more than or equal to 8 grades, and the fine grain strengthening effect is good. The tempered structure has excellent toughness and CTOD value, and the ductile-brittle transition temperature is below minus 80 ℃ at the lowest.
Since the subsequent machining of the end of the steel pipe is required, how to avoid bending of the steel pipe is also a problem that must be dealt with in the heat treatment. The bending deformation defect of the steel pipe is one of the common defects of heat treatment, most of the pipe bending can be straightened by a six-roller straightener, but the six-roller straightener has a straightening blind area. The bending of the pipe end cannot be straightened, and the subsequent processing quality and the processing efficiency of the steel pipe are adversely affected. The bending deformation of the heat treatment is mainly caused by uneven cooling and heating of all parts of the steel pipe after heating under the action of thermal stress and structural stress, and the deformation of the steel pipe can be reduced by improving the heating uniformity, the water quenching uniformity and the like of the steel pipe, so that the processing failure of the steel pipe caused by pipe end bending in the subsequent processing of the steel pipe is reduced.
After heat treatment, the resulting pipeline steel pipe has excellent properties, especially impact toughness and CTOD test (crack tip opening displacement) values. Under different heat treatment process conditions, the lowest impact transformation temperature of the pipeline steel pipe can reach-80 ℃, and the CTOD value is more than or equal to 1.5mm under the condition of-30 ℃. The straightness of the pipe end is less than or equal to 1.5mm/1.5m.

After the processing and calibration, a mode of rough turning and then finish turning is adopted. During roughing, a common cutter is adopted to feed at a feed rate of 0.5mm per minute, and the rotating speed of the lathe is 80-100 r/min; during finish machining, an R10 semicircular cutter is adopted to feed at the feed rate of 0.1-0.35 mm/min per minute, the rotating speed of the lathe is controlled at 40-60R/min, and the turning speed is reduced to prevent the steel pipe from shaking to form raised grains on the machined surface. The main processing parameters are shown in the figure, after the inner hole cylindrical section is turned, the conical surface is transited to an unmachined surface according to the ratio of 1. The schematic drawing of the machining of the inner hole of the pipe end is shown in figure 4 (in figure 4, A is an enlarged view of a transition region, L is the length of a parallel section of a turned inner hole, t is the wall thickness after turning, D is the inner diameter after turning, D is the outer diameter, and alpha is a chamfer angle of the transition region).
