****Safety of transportation of oil and gas provides a guarantee for sustainable energy supply. The fracture of linepipe may lead to environmental catastrophe and significant economic losses. Hydrogen induced cracking (HIC), sulphide stress cracking (SSC) and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in various types of linepipe steels are phenomena that are responsible for the majority of linepipe failures. The information recently published by us and other researchers indicates that special textured steels can have improved resistance to both HIC and SCC. These findings create an emerging but completely unexplored opportunity to manufacture new generation of linepipe steels with highly improved resistance to two major type of pipeline failure. The overall objective of the proposed program is designing new manufacturing processes for optimized texturing of steels. The texture and the grain-boundary character of pipeline steels (X65 and X70) will be analyzed and modified based on a complete understanding of the influence of thermo-mechanical processing on texture formation, and the role of texture in steel performance in sour environment will be investigated. Extensive tests of steel performance in sour environment, and after hydrogen charging will be conducted to relate the crack nucleation and propagation to steel structure and texture. This project will offer a novel approach towards the ultimate objective to enhance the steel performance by texture control. In the proposed research we plan to cooperate with EVRAZ Inc and CANMET Materials Technology Laboratory to develop processing technology for production of novel texture-modified linepipe steels, and finally transfer the related technology to Canadian manufacturing company Evraz.**

* 油气运输安全是能源可持续供应的保障。管线破裂可能导致环境灾难和重大的经济损失。氢致开裂（HIC）、硫化物应力开裂（SSC）和应力腐蚀开裂（SCC）是导致各种管线钢失效的主要原因。我们和其他研究人员最近发表的信息表明，特殊织构钢可以提高抗HIC和SCC的能力。这些发现创造了一个新兴的，但完全未开发的机会，以制造新一代的管线钢，具有高度提高抵抗两种主要类型的管道故障。该计划的总体目标是设计新的制造工艺，以优化钢的织构。在全面了解热机械加工对织构形成影响的基础上，分析和改进了管线钢（X65和X70）的织构和晶界特征，并研究了织构在酸性环境中对钢性能的影响。将对钢在酸性环境中和充氢后的性能进行广泛的测试，以将裂纹的成核和扩展与钢的组织和织构联系起来。该项目将为通过织构控制来提高钢的性能提供一种新的途径。 在拟议的研究中，我们计划与EVRAZ公司和CANMET材料技术实验室合作，开发生产新型织构改性管线钢的加工技术，并最终将相关技术转让给加拿大制造公司Evraz。
