All riser forgings can be delivered as raw material to you or as a truly turnkey delivery including, welding, finish machining including standard or premium thread cutting, coating, overlay weld cladding, assembly and pressure testing. All based on your design and desired properties.
A specialized riser joint designed with a taper to control curvature and reduce local bending stresses and often the riser exposed for highest loads in the string.
Our Stress Joints in grade A707 3W have been supplied to recent Shell projects, e.g. Stones, Appomattox and Vito.
The Tension Joint is a crucial part in any riser string and provides the means for attaching a vertical riser to the floating vessel’s tensioning system.
Subseatec is a recognized source in supplying top quality Tension Joints. Subseatec’s Tension Joints are manufactured in different steel grades, but the most dominant is A182 F22 with yield strengths up to 85 ksi. We have established a good process to handle long and slender forgings up to 60 feet in one piece including large thickness variances meeting the toughest requirements.
A special riser joint being designed to prevent damage to the riser and control umbilical where they pass through the rotary table. Usually included in C/WO risers and many times named “cased wear joint”. Our references of this product are many with recent deliveries to Snorre B and the Luno projects. As an alternative to a painted carbon steel wear casing we can offer stainless steel solutions.
The transition joint, typically named as a Crossover or Crossover joint, provides for the interface between two different coupling designs. We are familiar to any type of premium threads required on one or both sides of the crossover.
A pup joint is a standard joint, but shorter in length. The pup joints usually come in lengths of 10, 15 and 20ft.
Other types of specialty joints manufactured by Subseatec:
Subseatec produces shorter forgings such as pin & box connectors and flanges specifically optimised for welding onto pipes or other forgings while still meeting strength requirements.
The Connectors are typically delivered with different kind of surface treatments like cladding, HVOF and HVAF and any type of coating required, e.g. Thermal Sprayed Aluminium (TSA) or PTFE type coatings.
The Adapter is a pressure-containing piece of equipment with end connections of different nominal size designation and/or pressure rating.
Subseatec manufactures a vast range of different forged and machined bodies.
The main connection point of the well at the sea floor and machined parts based on forgings that both see the high loads and environmental constrains. We have the ability to offer long non-welded wellheads.
The main part in the XT that control the flow of well fluids. An advanced machined part from a steel forging with corrosion protective cladding and related coatings.
An important safety valve during the drilling of a well that shall contain any leakage if a drilling activity goes wrong. The main body is a machined large forging that shall withstand the high load when blocking any well flows.
In terms of pipes and flow lines we can supply any type of requirement. Our specialty would be forged heavy wall pipes with lengths up to 19 m. The products can be delivered in the execution of your request.
We can deliver any flange of your requirement. Quick deliveries can also be achieved through our own bar stock.
Forged connection points for merging pipelines in weldable steel grades on the sea floor from smaller in field lines to larger export lines.
