Abstract

GMAW welding is a metal joining process with a melting process with the addition of a coil of wire in the form of electrodes and protective gas. Seamlees pipe, also known as seamless pipe, is an iron pipe without a connection. This study aims to produce data from the results of bending and impact testing on seamlees pipes by varying the welding current with a current of 21.5 volts, 22.5 volts, and 23.5 volts in GMAW welding. After the seamless pipe is welded, impact and bending tests are carried out on the seamlees pipe. From the bending/bending strength test, the highest flexural strength occurred at a current of 21.5 and 22.5 volts, while the lowest flexural strength occurred at a current of 23.5 volts. From the impact test, the highest strength occurred at 21.5 and 22.5 volts and the lowest was at 23.5 volts.  Keywords: Seamlees pipe, GMAW welder, Bending Strength, Impact Strength.

Abstract

In the oil and gas industry, tanks play a crucial role as storage containers for fluids and fuel oil products, both in the form of volatile, pressurized, and flammable fluids. In addition, tanks are not only found in the oil and gas industry, but also in other sectors such as power plants. In the long period of use, the tank may be damaged due to several factors, including plate depletion caused by cor rosion. This problem can affect the integrity of the tank so that an inspection of the condition of the tank needs to be carried out. The inspection of tank plate thickness and corrosion rate was carried out using the Non-Destructive Examination (NDE) method with the Benetech GM100 Ultrasonic Thickness Gaugge tool. This inspection is urgently needed to determine the remaining life of the tank with reference to the API 653 and API 575 standards. The method used started from literature studies in various references and previous research, after which field data collection was then analyzed in accordance with the findings and applicable provisions. Based on the results of measurements in April 2024, the condition of the 01-50 ton tank is still in good condition, marked by the thickness of course 1-3 is still above the minimum limit that has been determined. For Course 1 Tact is 4.3 mm and Tmin is 0.4064 mm with a corrosion rate of 0.0875 mm/year and a remaining life of 44.49 years. For Course 2 Tact is 4.1 mm and Tmin is 0.2032 mm with a corrosion rate of 0.1125 mm/year and a remaining life of 24.63 years. For Course 3 Tact of 3.9 mm and Tmin of 0.1016 mm with a corrosion rate of 0.1375 mm/year and a remaining life of 28.35 years. It can be concluded that the condition of the 01-50 Ton tank is still in good condition. Keywords: (tank, power plant, plate thickness, corrosion rate, remaining tank life)
