Helical Submerged Arc Welded (SAWH) pipemill has a capacity of 375.000Tn/y and is producing steel pipes with external diameters ranging from 24’’ to 100’’, wall thickness up to 25,4mm, pipe lengths up to 18m and steel grades up to X80 using the two step manufacturing process. The “Two-step” process consists of two distinct operations: pipe forming/continuous tack welding and double submerged arc welding. The mill was manufactured by the German company SMS-MEER.

The “Two-step” process offers major benefits over alternative technologies primarily due to their advanced technical characteristics, namely:
  • Flexibility
  • Low installation cost
  • Lower production cost
  • Higher productivity
  • Superior dimensional characteristics and weld quality
