The effect of alloying on the properties of highly tempered steels used for production of a range of petroleum pipes is studied. It is shown that an increase in molybdenum content from 0.15 to 0.53% improves the mechanical characteristics of chromium-molybdenum steels tempered at 600–690°C significantly. Alloying with vanadium and niobium facilitates an additional increase in strength properties. The best hardening of steel with 0.32% molybdenum in a highly tempered condition is provided by combined microalloying with niobium and vanadium, although stress corrosion cracking resistance is reduced.
