Abstract
The production method of a seamless steel pipe includes a heating step of heating an Nb-containing steel material to 800 to 1030° C., a pipe-making step of producing a hollow shell by performing piercing-rolling or elongation-rolling on the Nb-containing steel material, by using a piercing mill including a plurality of skewed rolls, a plug disposed between the plurality of skewed rolls, and a mandrel bar, and a cooling step immediately after rolling, of carrying out cooling using a cooling liquid on a hollow shell portion that passes between rear ends of the plurality of skewed rolls, in the hollow shell, so as to reduce an outer surface temperature of the hollow shell portion to 700 to 1000° C. within 15.0 seconds after the hollow shell portion passes between the rear ends of the plurality of skewed rolls.
