Does the pipeline manufacturing process have a min wall thickness limit to produce a seamless pipe?

Thinking further now, if he's building a pipeline, the pipeline design codes limit Diameter to Wall Thicknesses ratios to about 100, so the thin limit in that case would be 0.01 x OD

Is that 100:1 for seamless pipe? or maybe plate pipe perhaps?

All pipe. I thought it was a code requirement, but now I can't find this in a code reference. It may be one of my "rule of thumb codes".

Anything in the 100+ range makes installation a bear.

1- 16" x 0.374" pipe acc. to API 5L X60
2- 20" Sch STD Pipes acc. to ASTM A 53 Gr.B
The manufacture said that the wall thickness is TOO THIN for an execution as SEAMLESS Pipes.
According to API5L, the min Wall thickness for:
- Pipe 16"
is 0.188"
-Pipe 20 "
is 0.219"
that gives a ratio of about 91:1 which meets Biginch's response.
Referring to what all you folks have written previously, I understand that every manufacturer have his own ratio 28:1, 25:1 or maybe 100:1 which leads to say that we can get our above seamless pipe with another manufacture
RE: Max OD and Thikness of a seamless pipe.
Both pipes will be 0.375, it doesn't seem like an un-realistic request, I'd try another manufacturer.
