The demand for electric resistance welded (ERW) pipe for deep-water installation has increased, which necessitates a higher degree of accuracy in evaluating the strength of pipe in order to satisfy the design limit state, otherwise referred to as the collapse performance. Since ovality and residual stress governs the collapse performance, an accurate evaluation of these factors is needed. An analytical approach using a three-dimensional finite element method was proposed to simulate the roll-forming and sizing processes in manufacturing ERW pipe. To simulate significant plastic deformation during manufacturing, a nonlinear material model that included the Bauschinger effect was incorporated. The manufacturing of ERW pipe made of API 5L X70 steel was simulated and analyzed for collapse performance. Controlling the ovality of the pipe significantly decreased the amount of pressure that would cause a collapse, whereas the effect of residual stress was minor. These two factors could be improved via the use of a proper sizing ratio.
