In the steel industry, bulb flats are a type of hot-rolled steel product that is commonly used in shipbuilding and offshore construction. These flat bars have a unique shape that resembles the profile of a bulb, with a flat top and a narrower base. They are typically made from high-strength steel alloys and are designed to provide structural support and stability to marine vessels and offshore installations.
ReadmoreQ345B steel is a low-alloy high-strength structural steel with good mechanical properties, low temperature performance, plasticity and good weldability. It is one of the most widely used steel grades in construction and engineering structures.

One of the significant environmental impacts of steel production is the emission of greenhouse gases. The steelmaking process involves the use of coal and other fossil fuels, which release gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide. These gases contribute to global warming and climate change. The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimated that the steel sector accounted for 7% of the total global carbon dioxide emissions in 2015.

One of the main applications of offshore engineering steel in renewable energy is in the construction of wind turbine foundations. These foundations must be able to support the weight of the tower and the rotor, resist the forces of wind and waves, and maintain stability in challenging conditions. Traditional monopiles are typically made of high-strength, low-alloy (HSLA) steel, while newer designs such as jackets and suction buckets may use combinations of steel and concrete or other materials. The choice of foundation type and materials depends on a variety of factors, including water depth, soil conditions, and local regulations.
