Detail of the transverse section of the 4" pipe at the longitudinal seam weld evidencing the leakage position. The damage appears as a through wall opening. The pipe thickness is 8 mm and there are no evidences of general corrosion (the SCH 80 corresponds to 8.6 mm) or pitting at the internal surface.

M - Low Carbon SteelP - Longitudinal Seam Welded PipeAp - ShipCd - Preferential Dissolution
Cm - Transverse Section AspectDf - Transverse Section
Detail of the transverse section of the 4" pipe at the longitudinal seam weld where it is not leaking yet, showing that the damage is not a crack but a localized dissolution, or localized corrosion or preferential dissolution at the autogenous seam weld. The thickness of the pipe is 8 mm and there are no evidences of general corrosion or pitting.
