A wire for gas metal arc welding containing 0.01 to 0.06 wt % of C, 0.10 to 0.60 wt % of Si, 0.9 to 3.1 wt % of Mn, 0.7 to 2.0 wt % of Cr, 0.005 to 0.06% of Ti, not greater than 0.08 wt % of Al and if necessary, 0.05 to 0.30 wt % of Cu, and the balance of Fe and unavoidable impurities. This wire improves the selective corrosion resistance and the low temperature toughness of the resulting weld metal, and is particularly suitable for circumferential welding of line pipes for transporting CO.sub.2 -containing petroleum, natural gases or CO.sub.2.

To provide a super-high strength line pipe that is excellent in low temperature toughness, can be field welded easily, and has a tensile strength of at least 900 MPa (exceeding ×100 of the API standard), and a production method thereof. The present invention relates to a super-high strength line pipe produced by shaping a steel plate into a pipe shape and arc welding seam portions, the strength of a base steel portion is 900 to 1,100 MPa and the strength of the weld metal is higher than the base steel strength −100 MPa. In the steel pipe, the Ni content of the weld metal is higher by at least 1% than that of the base steel. The combination of the chemical components of the steel plate with those of the weld metal, for accomplishing these steel pipes by a U&O step is shown concretely. A production method of the steel plate and the welding method for achieving the steel pipe are also described. Furthermore, a method of reducing the strength of the inner surface of the weld metal to restrict cracking at the time of pipe expansion is also shown.

An ultra-high strength essentially boron-free steel having a tensile strength of at least about 900 MPa (130 ksi), a toughness as measured by Charpy V-notch impact test at −40° C. (−40° F.) of at least about 120 joules (90 ft-lbs), and a microstructure comprising predominantly fine-grained lower bainite, fine-grained lath martensite, or mixtures thereof, transformed from substantially unrecrystallized austenite grains and comprising iron and specified weight percentages of the additives: carbon, silicon, manganese, copper, nickel, niobium, vanadium, molybdenum, chromium, titanium, aluminum, calcium, Rare Earth Metals, and magnesium, is prepared by heating a steel slab to a suitable temperature; reducing the slab to form plate in one or more hot rolling passes in a first temperature range in which austenite recrystallizes; further reducing said plate in one or more hot rolling passes in a second temperature range below said first temperature range and above the temperature at which austenite begins to transform to ferrite during cooling; quenching said plate to a suitable Quench Stop Temperature; and stopping said quenching and allowing said plate to air cool to ambient temperature.

A steel having excellent HAZ toughness can be used for ships, buildings, pressure containers, linepipes, and so forth. The steel is of a Ti--Mg--O system steel containing at least 40 pcs/mm.sup.2 of oxide and composite oxide particles of Ti and Mg having a size of 0.001 to 5.0 .mu.m. A steel having excellent HAZ toughness can be produced, and the safety of structures using this steel can be remarkably improved.

An ultra-high strength low yield ratio line pipe steel has an excellent HAZ toughness and field weldability and has a tensile strength of at least 950 MPa (exceeding X100 of the API standard). The steel is of a low carbon-high Mn-Ni-Mo-Nb-trace Ti type selectively containing B, Cu, Cr and V, whenever necessary. Its micro-structure comprises a martensite/bainite and ferrite soft/hard two-phase mixed structure having a ferrite fraction of 20 to 90%. This ferrite contains 50 to 1000 of worked ferrite, and the ferrite grain size is not greater than 5 Am. The production of an ultra-high strength low yield ratio line pipe steel (exceeding X100) excellent in low temperature toughness and field weldability becomes possible. As a result, the safety of a pipeline can be remarkably improved, and execution efficiency and transportation efficiency of the pipeline can be drastically improved.
