Description of a program to develop an ultrasonic inspection design for the nondestructive evaluation of pipeline girth welds made by the mechanized gas metal arch welding process for onshore and offshore pipelines. Vol. 1 describes a design approach using specialized ultrasonic beams chosen to detect specific imperfections in the well-defined regions of the weld and evaluated on simulated and real weld imperfections. Vol. 2 investigates the feasibility of using creeping waves for examination of the cap region, resulting in the development and evaluation of specifications for an experimental creeping wave transducer. Vol. 3 studies the use of the pitch-catch technique to examine the body of the weld, carried out on simulated and real weld defects. Vol. 4 combines the technology developed in the 3 previous reports into the overall inspection of field girth welds using 2 full scale welds in 9.8 mm and 20.6 mm thick pipe.

As deepwater wells are drilled to greater depths, pipeline engineers and designers are confronted with new problems such as water depth, weather conditions, ocean currents, equipment reliability, and well accessibility. Subsea Pipeline Design, Analysis and Installation is based on the authors' 30 years of experience in offshore. The authors provide rigorous coverage of the entire spectrum of subjects in the discipline, from pipe installation and routing selection and planning to design, construction, and installation of pipelines in some of the harshest underwater environments around the world. All-inclusive, this must-have handbook covers the latest breakthroughs in subjects such as corrosion prevention, pipeline inspection, and welding, while offering an easy-to-understand guide to new design codes currently followed in the United States, United Kingdom, Norway, and other countries. Gain expert coverage of international design codes Understand how to design pipelines and risers for today's deepwater oil and gas Master critical equipment such as subsea control systems and pressure piping
