Transverse tensile samples were extracted from the centreline position of three different compositions of uncoated thick walled microalloyed X70 UOE pipe at a location 180° from the weld. Aging heat treatments of 5, 15, and 25 minutes and temperatures of 175, 215, and 255°C were applied. Tensile...
