ESAB & the offshore construction industry
A full range of welding products
ESAB supplies a complete range of high
quality, low-hydrogen consumables for all
arc welding processes and materials used in
the construction of offshore structures such
as jackets, topsides, jackup rigs, semi-
submersibles, Spars and FPSO’s.
Consumables are complemented by a full
range of power sources and equipment
covering shielded metal arc welding (SMAW),
gas metal arc welding (GMAW), flux-cored
arc welding (FCAW) and submerged arc
welding (SAW), including automation
equipment such as column & booms,
rotators and positioners used in offshore
fabrication, pipemills and pressure vessel
fabrication.
Offshore structures, materials and weld
demands
Offshore structures may operate in harsh
environments such as arctic waters, cyclone
areas, high waves and strong currents. The
integrity of welded joints is crucial and
selection of correct consumables, welding
processes and procedures is essential for
the safety and longevity of offshore
structures.
Following is a brief overview of common
offshore structures, looking at the ABS
steel grades and other alloys used in their
fabrication. Later in this catalogue,
consumables selection tables are given
for these grades, for each welding
process. The main types of offshore
structures fabricated globally are jackets, Jacket

Jackup rigs
Jackup rigs are designed to operate in 20
-100 m water depth and can be moved to
different drilling locations. They consist of
two main fabricated components. The hull –
similar to a ships hull – is constructed from
mild steel ABS grades AH36 to DH 36 &
EH36. The second main component are the
high strength legs that are constructed of
ABS grade EQ70, ASTM A514 Grade Q and
A517 Grade F & Q high strength steel.
ESAB has a complete range of
consumables for these high strength steels,
in all welding processes, meeting CVN
impact toughness requirements at -40ºC to
-60ºC, depending on the project specifications
and the designated region the rig will
operate in.
Semi-submersibles
Semi submersibles are fully transportable
and operate in deep water of depths up to
1000 m. They are made up of a series of
main components. The lower hull is
constructed similarly to a ships hull, using
AH36 grade mild steel and depending on
the design grades DH & EH36. They form
the foundation for a number of columns and
supporting bracing. The hull and columns, in
turn, support the main operating deck and
drilling structure. Materials range from
355MPa to 460MPa yield strength,
depending on the design.
jackup rigs and semi-submersibles. As
pictured below, the different offshore
structures are designed for different water
depths and varied types of operations
such as trial drilling or full production
drilling of oil & gas.
Offshore jackets
Jackets are a permanent offshore structure
serving in water depths of up to 450 m.
They remain at the same location for their
full operational life. Typically used in their
fabrication are 355-500 MPa yield strength
materials:ABSgradesEH36toFQ51.CNV
impact toughness is in the range of -40°C to
-60°C, depending on project specifications
and final geographic location of the jacket.
There may also be CTOD requirements at
-10°C to -40°C in the as welded or stress
relieved condition.
Compliant towers
Compliant towers are a narrower type of
jacket for deeper water than a standard
offshore jacket - designed to operate in
water depths up to 700m. Materials and
requirements are very similar to those used
standard offshore jackets.
Topsides
The topside is located on top of the jacket
or compliant tower and uses many and
varied grades of steel and alloys in
construction and fabrication. Typically,
355MPa yield grades are applied for the
outer structure or framework, but the
topside also contains large volumes of
duplex stainless steels and 300 series
stainless steels for the processing
equipment and copper and nickel or copper
base materials for sea water cooling.
Consumables selection for these materials
are covered in a separate section.

ESAB & the offshore construction industry
1040913_Catalogus OFFSHORE_c.indd 8 06-12-11 13:50
A tradition in low hydrogen stick electrodes for the offshore industry
In the 80’s and 90’s FILARC SMAW
electrodes earned a strong reputation in
offshore construction for North Sea oil & gas
exploration. During this period, a range of
electrodes was developed that tackled
typical offshore challenges such as strain
aging, crack propagation and hydrogen
induced cracking and combined this with
extremely good weldability. FILARC
electrodes such as 56S, 76S and 88S are
today worldwide renowned in offshore
fabrication for their excellent capabilities in
all-positional thick plate welding.
The Atom Arc range of all-positional low-
hydrogen SMAW electrodes provide the
answer to the trend to construct ever lighter
with steels with increasing yield strength
levels. Starting at the 420 MPa level with
Atom Arc 8018, the range covers steels with
strength levels of 690 MPa and higher with
Atom Arc 12018.
ESAB low moisture absorption (LMA) electrodes, such as
OK 48.00,OK 55.00, OK 48.08 and OK 73.15, are the top when it
comes to the avoidance of hydrogen induced cracking. The LMA
properties of the coating ensure optimal resistance against moisture
re-absorption, especially when used from ESAB VacPac vacuum
packaging. The safe exposure time for LMA electrodes is 12 hours after
opening the VacPac with the foil left in place*. For detailed information
on ESAB VacPac, see pages 18 and 19.
* Valid at standard AWS test conditions of 26.7 C and 80% RH.

Atom Arc T was developed for welding T1 steels in all applications. Mechanical properties of the welded joints equal or exceed the properties of the base steel in either the as welded or stress relieved condition, thus 100% design joint efficiency. In addition, Atom Arc T electrodes are suitable for many other applications particularly where high strength welds with excellent low impact properties are required. Atom Arc T is also used for the welding of tubular bracing joints in Jackup Rig Legs of EQ63 material or 620MPa yield. Atom Arc is supplied in 50lb or 10lb (22.7 or 4.5kg) hermetically sealed cans.

Low-hydrogen electrodes always guaranteed with VacPac
Area to note date and time
of opening the VacPac
No re-baking, no holding ovens,
no quivers.
MMA electrodes from VacPac can be
used straight from the package without
the need to re-bake them and store them
temporarily in holding ovens and quivers.
Upon opening, fresh and dry electrodes are
guaranteed when the vacuum is maintained.
Electrodes of low moisture absorption type
(LMA, classified as H4 or H5), re-absorb
moisture slowly from the air. The safe
exposure time for this type of electrode is
12 hours* after opening the VacPac with the
foil left in place.
* Valid at standard AWS test conditions of
26.7°C and 80% RH.
How to handle VacPac
To protect the vacuum foil, avoid using
a knife or any other sharp object when
opening the outer package. Keep the
electrodes inside the package and do not
take out more than one electrode at a time.
Low moisture absorption type electrodes
(LMA) that have been exposed to the
atmosphere in an opened VacPac for more
than 12 hours (26.7°C and 80% RH) should
be discarded or re-dried.
VacPac is available in various packaging sizes
to suit fabricators’ individual consumption of
MMA electrodes.

The PZ6138 family consists of all positional rutile, low-hydrogen
flux-cored wires for applications involving the welding of thick steel
components and impact toughness requirements down to –60°C.
The family is based on the PZ6138 which has been widely applied in
offshore fabrication for decades. They are alloyed with 0.9% Ni and
micro-alloyed with TiB. PZ6138 and PZ6138 SR are designed for use
in Ar/ CO2 mixed gas, whereas PZ6138S SR is used in pure CO2.
Types with the suffix SR provide good low temperature toughness after
stress relieving. All types are successfully CTOD tested – the SR types
at temperatures as low as –40°C.
The wires are extremely “welder friendly” wire with a soft, spatter-free
arc that always operates in the spray arc mode. It is easy to obtain
flat welds with a good penetration and smooth wetting into the plate
edges. The brittle slag is easily removed leaving behind a smooth rutile
weld appearance. Typical positional welding defects such as lack of
fusion and slag inclusions are avoided, due to the spray arc operation.
The wires have a good tolerance to poor joint preparation. High quality
one-sided root runs are made economically on ceramic backing.
The wire formulation provides a fast freezing
slag that supports the weld pool well in
positional welding, enabling deposition
rates which cannot be equalled by stick
electrodes or solid wires. Deposition rates
in vertical up welding can reach up to 4 kg/
h (100% duty cycle), making it the most
productive consumable available for manual
welding in this position. Welding parameters
are optimised per welding position for
maximum productivity, but one single setting
can be selected for all-positions (230A),
making it ideal for fit-up work.
Diffusible hydrogen satisfies the EN H5
class tested under the conditions prescribed
in the classification standard. Weld metal
remains low-hydrogen over a wide envelope
of welding parameters.
Flux cored wires for critical CTOD applications - CO2 and mixed shielding gas
• High deposition rate: reduced
welding times leading to overall
lower welding costs.
• All positional weldability: one wire
with the ability to weld several
applications.
• Welder friendly: easy to use with
a lower risk of weld defects and
reduced welder training costs.
• High level of weld metal integrity:
outstanding CTOD performance to
-40°C in both the AW and PWHT
conditions.
• High level of weld quality: consi-
stently low hydrogen (H5) provides
assurance against the risk of HAZ
hydrogen induced cold cracking.

This self-shielded flux-cored wire is a
product especially developed for the
offshore industry. It is unique in the sense
that it features a diffusible hydrogen content
below 5ml/100g deposited weld metal
making it ideal for critical steel applications
such as offshore TKY joints, pipe structures,
bridges, storage tanks and other
applications where cold-cracking resistance
is required. It is welder-friendly and has
excellent all-positional welding operability,
including downhill welding to suit for a wider
range of WPS requirements. Coreshield
8Ni1 H5 provides good low-temperature
CVN toughness down to -40°C.

A weld thickness world record was set in
2010 by a well known European offshore
fabricator while constructing a mobile
production platform. Using ESAB’s 1.2 mm
diameter PZ6138 all-positional rutile cored
wire, four welds with a weld thickness of
no less than 135 mm needed to be
covered in the difficult PC (2G) position.
The welds were located in the legs, just
above the stiffener frames and suction piles.
Each weld had a run around length of about
ten metres and the welding time per leg
was about two weeks on a two-shift basis.
It involved mechanised welding using a rail
track system under 80%Ar/ 20%CO2
shielding gas. Apart from this record joint in
PC (2G) position, there were a variety of
welds in PF (3G) position which were only
slightly smaller and equally challenging. The
tables survey the mechanical properties
from one of the WPQ’s in 2G position.
These included a CTOD value in the heat
affected zone of 0.74 mm at 0°C.

OK Flux 10.62 is an
agglomerated, high-basic flux
for submerged arc welding. It is
used for multi-run welding of
thick section materials. When
high demands on impact
toughness values are required,
OK Flux 10.62 is the flux to use.
The flux is neutral on Si and Mn
alloying.
It can be used for single and
multi-wire procedures, for butt
and fillet welds and works
equally well on DC and AC
current. Since no alloying takes
place, it is perfect for multi-
layer welding of unlimited plate
thickness. OK Flux 10.62 is
especially suited for narrow gap
welding due to good slag
detachability and smooth
sidewall blending. It operates
optimally at the lower end of
the voltage range. The weld
metal produced has a low-
oxygen content; approx.
300ppm and hydrogen levels
lower than 5ml/100g.

OK Flux 10.93 is an
agglomerated, fluoride basic flux
for submerged arc welding of
stainless steels. It is used for
single-run and multi-run welding
of all plate thicknesses giving
excellent welding characteristics.
It can be combined with a wide
range of stainless wires and is
commonly used for butt and fillet
welding of all standard austenitic
and higher alloyed stainless
steels.
The flux works very well on DC
current and has good weldability
in the 2G/ PB position. It
provides a very good slag
detachability, a smooth surface
finish and a nice bead
appearance. The low Si addition
during welding provides good
mechanical properties with
particularly good impact
toughness properties.
OK Flux 10.93 is one
of the most commonly used
fluxes for welding stainless and
corrosion resistant steels. It is
well established in chemical
and petrochemical plants,
offshore construction, pressure
vessels, storage tanks,
chemical tankers, power
generation, nuclear, pulp and
paper, civil constructions and
transport industries. This is a
flux particularly well suited for
the joining of duplex 2205
stainless steels, for example in

OK Flux 10.94 is an
agglomerated, fluoride basic,
chromium compensating flux for
butt welding of stainless steels.
Specially recommended for
welding stainless steels when a
higher ferrite content is required.
Primarily recommended for multi-
run welding of unlimited plate
thickness.
This flux works well on DC
current and provides good slag
detachability and nice bead
appearance. OK Flux 10.94
gives a higher ferrite content in
the weld metal due to the
chromium addition, reducing the
risk of hot cracking. The low Si
addition during welding provides
good mechanical properties of
the weld metal.
The flux is used in the chemical
and petrochemical industries for
the welding of pressure vessels,
storage tanks and chemical
tankers. Especially
recommended for the joining of
super duplex 2507 stainless
steels, e.g. in offshore
applications.

Single wire welding is the most widely
used SAW method. The solid or
cored wires are typically 2.0 – 4.0mm
diameter, although for some thin
plate, high speed applications 1.2 –
1.6mmcanbeused.DC+currentis
generally used with 20–40mm stick-
out. A smaller diameter produces a
higher deposition rate at the same
current, because of a higher current
density. The current range for a larger
diameter involves higher currents and
therefore also higher deposition rates.
A smaller diameter wire produces a
more deeply penetrating and narrower
weld bead.
For twin-wire welding, two wires are
connected to the same power source.
A standard SAW machine is equipped
with double drive rolls and contact tips
suitable for feeding two wires
simultaneously. It produces considerably
higher deposition rates than the
conventional single-wire process using
large diameter wires. It offers up to 30%
higher deposition rates and can be used
at higher currents and speeds. Very
high welding speeds can be achieved in
fillet welding, but is also used
successfully for butt welding. Cored
wires can further enhance deposition
rates.
In tandem sub-arc welding each of the
two wires is connected to its own power
source and fed simultaneously by its own
feed unit. The lead arc, operating at high
current(mostlyDC+)andlowvoltage,
gives deep penetration, whilst the trailing
arc uses lower current (mostly AC to
avoid arc blow) to smooth and finish the
weld bead. The wires are normally large
diameter (3.0-5.0 mm) and deposition
rates are about twice that of single-wire
welding. The additional capital
expenditure is quite high. It is widely
used in shipbuilding, offshore, beam
production, wind tower production and
pipe mills.

via a manually adjusted vertical boom. Transverse
welding with the speed generated from the siderunning
carriage is possible, using the outer welding head. The
well proven A6 welding heads incorporating the user-

Positioners
Welding times can be drastically reduced by
placing the workpiece on a positioner when
welding. Up to 25 – 30 % higher welding speed
can be achieved if the joint is welded lying down
instead of vertically. The optimum welding position
can always be obtained with ESAB´s positioners.
Welding in the optimum position improves the
welding quality as welding work becomes
considerably easier for the welder to carry out in a
safer way. The arc time factor also increases when
welding in the positioner, especially when working
on large, heavy workpieces. The changes in
position of the workpiece is reduced to a minimum
in comparison to using a spindle guide or other
lifting tool, which often means unproductive
waiting times. ESAB has a wide programme range
of positioners for welding and these can also be
used for installation work. During automated
welding, a positioner is often a part of the total
application and all the models are fully designed to
be combined with ESAB´s automation programme,
which means that they can be controlled remotely
or connected by the application’s process
controller PEK. Depending on the size, weight and
complexity of the workpiece and position angle
requirements, the following ESAB positioners are
available:
RT 250 – RT 500 Two axis positioners for rotating and
tilting lightweight workpieces. Maximum loading capacity
from 250 to 500 kg.
RT 1 – RT 35 Two axis positioners for rotating and tilting
workpieces. Maximum loading capacity from 1000-35000
kg. The positioners of the RT-series have 2 axis; height
and rotation, which give a perfect ergonomic working
position. All the positioners come with a low voltage (24V)
remote control for all functions. For daily work these
positioners offer perfect solutions with optimised motor
and gear drive sizes.
TAP 1T and TAP 3T Three axis positioners for lifting,
rotating and tilting demanding workpieces. The positioners
of the TAP-series have 3 axis; height, tilting angle and
rotation. Thus 3-axis operation guarantees the ideal
ergonomic working position. Height, angle and speed are
continuously adjustable.
Suitable application areas: pipe shops, vessels’
cladding of dish ends, fuel tanks.
Versatile accessories: a wide range of accessories is
available for ESAB’s positioners, which additionally
improve workpiece handling during welding.

Welding solutions for Pipemills
ESAB offers a wide range of products developed in
house for various multiwire SAW applications which are
particularly suitable for pipe welding. The range
includes AC-DC power sources in the pipemill edition,
controls for multiwire processes including
documentation, as well as columns and booms with a
wide variety of welding heads.
Precise, high-speed longitudinal welding.
Our concept for longitudinal submerged arc welding is
suitable for pipes in a normal diameter range of 20-64”,
a normal wall thickness of 6 to 40 mm and a length of
up to 18 m.
Internal and external welding. For internal welding
we have designed pre-stressed booms as well as
welding heads for up to four wires. During internal
welding, front-mounted laser sensor guides the
welding head via the cross-slide. Video camera
observation of accurate guiding and the welding
process is standard. The external welding station is
based on a column and boom solution with a very
stable cross-slide to adapt to different pipe diameters.
The actual welding head, with its up to five-wire feed
systems mounted on a so-called “rainbow fixture”, is
based on the ESAB A6S-Arc Master System which has
been tested more than 10.000 times.
Return current systems (Grounding). High current
circuits have to be closed back to the power source by
efficient systems at constantly moving pipes. Flexible
steel brushes in two rows in front and behind the
welding process are pressed with defined force from
outside to the pipe to catch the current with a
minimum of voltage loss and to surely avoid any arc
blow effect, which would disturb the weld process.
Problem-free flux and wire feed systems
ESAB offers smooth feeding of wire in different
diameters and the equally straightforward supply of
newandre-usedflux.Theconstantandreliablewire
feed is secured by high torque wire feed motors and
enclosed double wire straightening mounted in 90
degrees to each other. The correct combination of
compressedair,fluxfeeding,easyreplenishmentof
newfluxviatheBig/Bagsystem,avacuumunit,a
reliable magnetic separator and continuous recovery
helps to create welding stations with less downtime,
high-quality welds and, last but not least, a cleaner
working environment.

wideflangebeams,columns,taperedbeamsornon-
symmetrical beams, ESAB has the know-how and the
welding equipment to match your efficiency, quality,
precision, versatility, productivity and overall welding
economyrequirements.Themachinesareoftwotypes:
IT-machines, where the beams are welded with the web
unit in the vertical position, and I-machines, where the
beams are produced in the horizontal position.
The main advantage of both machine types, apart from
their high production capacity, is that the welding
operationtakesplacewhentheflangeandthewebare
pressed together under pressure in order completely to
eliminate the gap between the surfaces. This ensures
perfect weld quality. The IT-machines have a built-in
straightening device which compensates for the pull-
