HFW pipes is considered a cost-effective pipe option for oil and gas pipeline projects. The HFW seam performance is always a concern, especially in challenging environments such as low temperature applications and wet sour services. One of the challenges include the seam properties to resist sulfide stress cracking (SSC) or hydrogen embrittlement (HE) when exposed to hydrogen charging environment such as a wet sour service.

This work presents a novel testing procedure to evaluate Electric Resistance Welded (ERW) / High Frequency Welded (HFW) pipe weld seam susceptibility to embrittlement when exposed to a wet sour environment. This procedure offers a simple and practical complementary testing option in addition to NACE TM0284 and TM0177 [1 & 2]. This procedure was developed, tested and patented by Aramco (U.S. Patent No. 11,235,427) as a reliable technique to assure the reliability and increase the confidence limits of the HFW pipe weld seam [3]. This patented procedure has the potential to be developed further and adopted by international standards including NACE and API.

At the request of a fabricator and coater of steel pipe and structural members, the authors undertook an investigation of painted steel piles at a marine commerce terminal in coastal New England. This company was concerned when the owners suspected a potential corrosion problem with the steel piles, and we were asked to perform the investigation. The investigation included a review of relevant engineering specifications and other documents, an on-site field investigation, and laboratory analysis of samples collected.

Uncontrolled microbial growth in oilfield systems leads to costly problems such as fouling, plugging,
corrosion and souring. It also directly impacts the safe operation, economic performance and
environmental compliance in all areas of production, transportation, refining and distribution. To reduce
the damaging effect of microbial growth; the oil industry typically uses a variety of toxic organic and
inorganic chemicals (biocides) to treat affected systems

Everyone wants a quality project; the word quality means different things to different people. Owners have unique perspectives on quality and risk tolerance which often differs across industries. The owner of a trash recycling center looking to paint the walls of his loading dock has a different perspective than the owner of a nuclear power plant, looking at the coating systems applied on the interior of his primary containment walls.
