A method of making a seamless, tubular article comprises subjecting a cast tubular workpiece of a corrosion resistant alloy to at least about a 25% wall reduction at a temperature below a recrystallization temperature of the workpiece using a metal forming process comprising at least one of radial forging, rolling, pilgering, and flowforming. The cast tubular workpiece is a centrifugally cast tubular workpiece comprising an inner diameter and an outer diameter.

1. A method of making a seamless, tubular article, the method comprising: subjecting a cast tubular workpiece of a corrosion resistant alloy to at least a 35% wall reduction including at least two reductions at a temperature below a recrystallization temperature of the workpiece using a metal forming process comprising at least one of radial forging, rolling, pilgering, and flowforming, and wherein a first reduction applied to the cast tubular workpiece is at least a 25% wall reduction;wherein the cast tubular workpiece is a centrifugally cast tubular workpiece comprising an inner diameter and an outer diameter. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the wall reduction is at least 50%. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the corrosion resistant alloy is one of a stainless steel alloy, a titanium-based alloy, a nickel-based alloy, a cobalt-based alloy, and a zirconium-based alloy. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the corrosion resistant alloy is a duplex stainless steel alloy. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein material has been removed from the inner diameter of the cast tubular workpiece. 6. The method of claim 1, further comprising, prior to the wall reduction: removing material from the inner diameter of the cast tubular workpiece. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the cast tubular workpiece is a heat treated, cast tubular workpiece. 8. The method of claim 1, further comprising, prior to the wall reduction: heat treating the cast tubular workpiece. 9. The method of claim 8, where the heat treating comprises at least one of age hardening and annealing. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the metal forming process is radial forging. 11.

The method of claim 1, wherein the metal forming process is flowforming. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein the metal forming process comprises: providing at least two rollers having a displacement from one another in an axial direction with respect to the cast tubular workpiece; andcompressing the outer diameter of the cast tubular workpiece with the rollers at a temperature below the recrystallization temperature of the workpiece using a combination of axial and radial forces so that a mandrel contacts and imparts a compressive hoop stress to the inner diameter. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein: the corrosion resistant alloy is a duplex stainless steel alloy; andthe metal forming process comprises rolling. 16. A method of making a seamless tubular article from a centrifugally cast, corrosion resistant alloy, the method comprising: cold working a cast tubular workpiece comprising an inner diameter, an outer diameter, and a wall thickness by at least one of flowforming, radial forging, rolling, and pilgering to provide a wall reduction, wherein the cold working includes at least two wall reductions, and wherein a first wall reduction applied to the cast tubular workpiece is at least a 25% wall reduction; wherein the cast tubular workpiece is a centrifugally cast, tubular workpiece of a corrosion resistant alloy; andwherein the corrosion resistant alloy is selected from a stainless steel alloy, a titanium-based alloy, a nickel-based alloy, and a zirconium-based alloy. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein the corrosion resistant alloy is a duplex stainless steel alloy. 18. The method of claim 16, wherein the cold working provides a wall reduction of at least 35%. 19. The method of claim 16, wherein material has been removed from the inner diameter of the cast tubular workpiece. 20. The method of claim 16, wherein cold working the cast tubular workpiece comprises: providing at least two rollers having a displacement from one another in an axial direction with respect to the cast tubular workpiece; andcompressing the outer diameter of the cast tubular workpiece with the rollers at a temperature below the recrystallization temperature of the corrosion resistant alloy using a combination of axial and radial forces so that a mandrel contacts and imparts a compressive hoop stress to the inner diameter of the cast tubular workpiece. 21. The method of claim 16, wherein the cast tubular workpiece is a heat treated, cast tubular workpiece. 22. The method of claim 16, further comprising, prior to the wall reduction: heat treating the cast tubular workpiece. 23. A method of producing a seamless, tubular product, the method comprising: subjecting a centrifugally cast tubular workpiece of a duplex stainless steel to a at least two wall reductions, and wherein a first wall reduction applied to the centrifugally cast workpiece is at least a 25% wall reduction, at a temperature below a recrystallization temperature of the duplex stainless steel using a metal forming process comprising rolling, wherein the centrifugally cast tubular workpiece includes an inner diameter and an outer diameter, and wherein material has been removed from the inner diameter. 24. The method of claim 23, wherein the at least two wall reductions provide at least a 35% wall reduction.
