Oman Chemical Plant: Pipe Cutting and Beveling On Site

I. Project background

In October 2018, the project was being processed on site at the Oman Chemical Plant. It was necessary to cut and process the DN300-DN600 thick-walled alloy pipes (wall thickness 25-45mm) on site to meet the welding requirements of high-pressure pipes under the ASME B16.25 standard.

II. Processing standards

Implement the ASME B16.25 37.5°±1° composite groove specification

Groove angle error ≤0.5°, blunt edge thickness tolerance ±0.2mm

III. Implementation details

Implement three-shift operation and configure a mobile sunshade and cooling system

Develop a dual-head collaborative processing program to complete the V-shaped composite groove in a single pass

Use pulse feed technology to reduce tool loss by 40%

IV. Project results

High one-time pass rate of grooves

Improve efficiency compared to traditional processes
