ML00149 — Vibration Induced Fatigue in a Gas PipingM - Low Carbon SteelP - Piping spoolAp - FPSOCd - Vibration Induced Fatigue
Macrography of the 8" pipe, welded to a 2" fitting (weldolet), welded to a 2" flange. The branch line was operating in this position (horizontal line with a lateral branch) and the through thickness fatigue crack is associated to the margin of the weld in the upper part of the pipe.

Macrography of a section tranverse to the pipe and to the weld between the 8"pipe and the 2" fitting weldolet. The crack starts exactly at the margin of the weld, in a geometric stress concentration raiser, in a position where it growths in the pipe longitudinal direction, and propagates in a straight line, not related to any metallurgical aspect.
