 A new method allows welders with little background in magnetism to reduce arc blow during DC welding of pipelines.
Arc blow most commonly occurs after an in-line magnetic-flux-leakage inspection tool magnetizes a pipe wall during an inspection run. DC arc welding is one of the most popular techniques in the oil and gas industry because of its versatility and relatively low cost. Interaction between the magnetic field associated with the current flowing through the electrode and the residual magnetic field in the pipeline under repair can produce arc blow.

 A first-of-its-kind SRL, the Ultra-Lok™ RSQ provides the user with either the traditional “fall arrest”, mode or “rescue/descent” mode, in one easy to use product for superior fall protection. If a fall occurs while in the rescue/descent mode, the Ultra-Lok™ RSQ will arrest the fall and then automatically lower the worker safely to the ground or next level. This two-in-one operation allows the device to be optimised for the work site while providing the ultimate level of worker safety.
