Abstract: Provided is a steel pipe for a linepipe having high compressive strength, a heavy wall thickness and sour gas resistance. The steel pipe has the composition which contains by mass % 0.02 to 0.06% C, 0.01 to 0.5% Si, 0.8 to 1.6% Mn, 0.012% or less P, 0.0015% or less S, 0.01 to 0.08% Al, 0.005 to 0.050% Nb, 0.005 to 0.025% Ti, 0.0005 to 0.0035% Ca, 0.0020 to 0.0060% N, and Fe and unavoidable impurities as a balance. The steel pipe has metal microstructure where a fraction of bainite is 80% or more, a fraction of M-A constituent is 2% or less and an average grain size of bainite is 5 ?m or less.

Abstract: Provided are a steel pipe for a linepipe with high compressive strength and a heavy wall thickness, and a method of manufacturing the same. Lowering of yield stress caused by a Bauschinger effect can be suppressed by optimizing the metal microstructure of a steel plate without requiring particular forming conditions in forming the steel pipe, and without requiring heat treatment after pipe making. A steel pipe has the composition which contains by mass % 0.03 to 0.10% C, 0.30% or less Si, 1.00 to 2.00% Mn, 0.015% or less P, 0.003% or less S, 0.080% or less Al, 0.005 to 0.035% Nb, 0.005 to 0.020% Ti, and Fe and unavoidable impurities as a balance. The steel pipe has metal microstructure where a fraction of bainite is 60% or more, a fraction of rolled ferrite is 5% or less, and a fraction of M-A constituent (MA) is 3% or less.

Abstract: Provided are a steel pipe for a linepipe having a heavy wall thickness and excellent fracture toughness in a base material, and methods of producing the same. A welded heat affected zone is achieved by suppressing lowering of yield stress caused by a Bauschinger effect by optimizing the metal microstructure of a steel plate. A steel pipe has a composition which contains by mass % 0.03 to 0.08% C, 0.10% or less Si, 1.00 to 2.00% Mn, 0.010% or less P, 0.0030% or less S, 0.06% or less Al, 0.005 to 0.020% Nb, 0.005 to 0.025% Ti, 0.0010 to 0.0060% N, and Fe and unavoidable impurities as a balance. Ti(%)/N(%) is a value which falls within a range of 2 to 4, and a Ceq value is 0.30 or more.
