API 5L is generally refers to the standards of pipeline steel, include pipeline pipe and pipeline steel plate. Pipeline steel pipe is used to extract oil, steam, water on the ground to the oil and gas industry enterprises.According to manufacture method, pipeline steel pipes are produced into seamless pipe and welded steel pipe, commonly used pipeline line types are welded steel tube with spiral submerged arc welding pipe (SSAW), straight seam submerged arc welding pipe (LSAW), electric resistance welding (ERW), seamless steel pipe is usually chosen where pipe diameter is less than 152 mm.
