AISI 316L stainless steel is extensively used in the oil and gas industry, partly due to the alloy’s low cost and good availability. The applicability of 316L in wet CO2 or sour environments is due to the protective passive oxide film formed on the surface. The corrosion risk for 316L in sour service environments containing chloride is due to localized forms of corrosion. The role of H2S has been attributed to its ability to depassivate materials. Results from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and DC polarization measurements in Cl-/ CO2/H2S environments are reported and assessed against models proposed for initiation of passive film breakdown in the presence of aggressive ions. The observed extent of the reactions involving H2S implies a significant transport of electrons through the passive film, thus reducing its internal field. This may in turn lead to film thinning and eventually film breakdown (depassivation). Density-functional theory (DFT) calculations on the adsorption of chloride at a defect-free Cr2O3 surface, on the other hand, indicate that this adsorption will have little influence on the initial breaking of the film (cf. filmbreaking mechanism).

This paper describes a series of tests on two grades of stainless steels UNS S31600 (AISI 316) and UNS S66286 (ASTM A453 Gr. 660– Alloy A286) in simulated H2S-contining oil and gas service environments. The purpose of this study was to evaluate these materials for stress corrosion cracking.

Results here of an effort to identify a potentiodynamic means of inducing corrosion in laser-etched areas of stainless steel tools. The electrochemical technique should be able to distinguish between “good” and “bad” etches relatively quickly so that it may be used to help refine the laser etch process, and ultimately assist in quality assurance.
