Mooring Dolphins Solutions
Greens Bayou Pipe Mill manufactures API 2B, API RP2A and AWS D1.1 compliant structural steel pipe for mooring dolphins.
Your mooring dolphin partner
We specialize in quick-turnaround, API 2B compliant carbon steel pipe. Our five rolling machines handle plates up to 10 inches thick.
Tough applications, quality fabrication
Longitudinal seams are welded using efficient and precise automated submerged-arc welding, or SAW, processes. The sides of plates fed through the rollers curl toward each other, forming a cylinder. Filler material is passed along the edges, on the inside and outside diameters, joining them together.
After assembly, the circumferential weld is performed. We have an extensive catalog of welding procedures to cover many types of material and designs.
With SAW, pressure is not used. A blanket of granular fusible material shields the arc. Here are the benefits of this welding technique:
- High Weld Quality
- High Deposition Rate
- Deep Weld Penetration
- Smooth Finished Weld
- No Spatter
Every order leaves our yard with a comprehensive document package. It includes applicable certified Mill Test Reports, or MTRs, and documents covering other industry- or client-required processes or inspections.
ADDITIONAL STEEL PIPE SERVICES
Obtaining structural steel pipe in the desired condition may require additional processing, which calls for transiting in-process material between service providers. Greens Bayou Pipe Mill eliminates these hassles by offering additional services under one roof.
- Assembly
- Non-Destructive Testing, or NDT
- Post-Weld Heat Treatment
- Coating
- Load Out
Structural steel, process integrity
An independent inspection agency checks welds for nonconformities. Any relevant indications found are documented by type and location before the pipe goes back to the welding area for repair.
Subsurface and surface NDT methods can be performed per any ASNT recommended practice or AWS, API, ASTM, and ASME standard. Client-supplied NDT procedures are also welcome. Common types of inspections performed include:
- Radiographic Testing, or RT
- Ultrasonic Testing, or UT
- Magnetic Particle Inspection, or MPI
- Liquid Penetrant Inspection, or LPI
