Subsea Pipe Welding and Pairing Pain Points

Manual measurement is inefficient

Only a few pipe-end samples are measured manually, making it difficult to identify the true major and minor axes.

Heavy reliance on experience

Without strict pairing standards, operators use different methods and completion speed depends heavily on experience.

Abnormal pipes cannot be removed early

Abnormal pipes may reach the production line and require extra grinding, delaying offshore pairing and laying.

The best pairing angle is hard to find

Major/minor-axis matching cannot achieve the best fit, while manual work is limited by measurement density and computing capacity.

pipeMaten Advantages

Rapid pipe-end measurement

A handheld geometry instrument collects all pairing data in about 20 seconds per pipe end.

Automatic classification

Measured pipe ends are classified automatically according to defined standards.

Remove abnormal pipes in advance

All possible joints are simulated so non-compliant ends can be removed before entering the production line.

Ultra-fast automatic pairing

Two pipe ends can be paired in 1–3 seconds with a specific rotation angle and operating procedure.
