Why Vallourec Riser grades?
We offer Vallourec Riser grades to meet the knownneeds of our customers. Requirements are individually defined in their speci-fications and derived from lessons learnt. The sum-mary of these different needs is the basic idea behindlaunching the Vallourec Riser grades series. In addition we want to contribute to the ongoingprocess of the Offshore Industry to establish newstandards.
Seamless High strength grades are selected in all three Riser applications:Production outer / inner / tubing riserSBOP Drilling riserWorkover - early production riser
High toughness / the resistance to crack propagation can be measured, the following standards are put into place: VM 95 R, VM 110 R, VM125 R, VM 95 RSS, VM 110 RSS
• Impact Test : CVN - Charpy V Notch (-10°C / 75% Shear)VM 95 R, VM 110 R, VM 125 R, VM 95 RSS, VM 110 RSS
• CTOD Test : Crack Tip Opening DisplacementVM 95 RSS, VM 110 RSS
• NACE Method D Test: DCB - Double Cantilever Beam
