This paper reports on the experience with the production of 27/33 mm X80 heavy wall thicknesses,large OD(48”)in Shouqin Steel Co.,Ltd.(SQS).Considering the technology capability of the plate mill in SQS,a optimized rolling and cooling process was developed to achieve stable heavy gauge X80 mechanical properties.The importance of the slab reheating process and rolling schedule will be discussed in the paper.In addition,the per pass reductions logic used during recrystallized rough rolling,and special emphasis on the reduction of the final roughing pass prior to the intermediate holding resulting in a fine uniform prior austenite microstructure will be discussed.The optimized cooling process application after finish rolling guarantees the steady control of the final bainitic microstructure with optimum M/A phase for heavy gauge X80 plates.The plates produced by this process achieved good flatness and excellent mechanical properties.SQS has produced 10000 tons 27mm X80 for the Middle Asia C Line Project and 1000 tons 33mm X80 for the 3rd West-to-East Natural Gas Transmission Pipeline Project in 2013-2014.The products utilizing optimized rolling and cooling process showed extremely excellent low temperature toughness.
