Abstract
This paper introduces characteristics of common repairment method for oil and gas transmission pipeline, especially for steel reinforcement repair sleeve. In this research, an X80 pipe with interlayer defects repaired by steel reinforcement repair sleeve was studied. In order to investigate the repair effect of steel reinforcement repair sleeve for interlayer defects, a hydraulic blasting test and metallographic analysis for repaired pipeline were performed. The result shows that interlayer defect influences the pressure capacity of pipe to a certain degree, however, steel reinforcement repair sleeve could provide an acceptable strengthening to the repaired section.
