Vertical piping in a corrosive oil producing system of a FPSO. The line is a nominal diameter 14" sch 10S (pipe thickness about 5 mm) and the flanged branch line is a 2" nominal diameter welded to the main pipe using a weldolet (forged fitting). The fatigue induced cracking occurred longitudinal to the main pipe, originated at the margem of the weld interface with the pipe.

Gas piping. Aspect of a branching line 2" ND, lateral to a horizontal main pipe ND 8", welded using a weldolet. The cracking started at the margin of the weld in the upper part of the pipe, where the weld crossed the longitudinal direction of the pipe, perpendicular to the branch.

General view of the 2" branch line that was supporting an instrument in a 12" gas piping of an offshore unity. The branch line is composed by a seamless pipe welded to a weldolet (left side of the figure) and to a flange (right side of the figure). The leakage is associated to a through wall cracking in the middle of the pipe length. The cracking is not evidenced in the figure, since it is too thin. See the schematic drawing in the next figure

Aspect of the brach line viewed from the internal side of the main pipe, after cuting. It is possible to see that the pipe was perforated by a thermal cutting (looking the finishing aspect of the edge of the hole). The weldolet was welded only from the external side of the pipe.

Aspect of the internal surface of the 2" nominal diameter pipe, SCH 40, presenting a circumferential through wall cracking in the pipe, not associated to any of the welded joints. It is possible to see the cracking parallel to the two welded joints: the pipe to weldolet (left side of the figure); and the pipe to flange (right side of the figure).
