Development Of The NACE “MR-01-75” And NACE “TM-01-77” Standards: Part II – Accelerated Material Qualification Testing In Sour Environments At Near Atmospheric Pressure

Product Number: 51322-17516-SG

Author: Brent W.A. Sherar, Eric Caldwell, Peter F. Ellis II, Russell D. Kane

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

This paper is Part II of a two-part series intended to narrate the history, some of which has been forgotten over time, leading up to the publication of the first Material Requirement (MR-01-75) standard prepared by NACE and its subsequent auxiliary standards. Previously, Part I¹ described the field observations and discussed the metallurgical factors that were being investigated by the historical NACE T-1B and 1F committees to support the development a “harmonized” sour service materials standard. In Part II, we focus on the rationale behind the use of accelerated laboratory test procedures and their development to differentiate metallurgical behavior in sour environments.

Developments In Abrasive Blast Nozzle Technology: Reducing Noise Exposure While Preserving Nozzle Performance And Usability

Product Number: 51322-18086-SG

Author: Matthew Sullivan, Christopher Sullivan

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Abrasive blasting operations used for paint and surface coatings removal are essential for the maintenance of the ships, aircraft, and land vehicles of the United States Armed Forces as well as use industries such as oil & gas, power generation, construction, mining, and infrastructure, among others. Abrasive blasting nozzle design is rudimentary and noise levels produced during abrasive blasting operations in shipyards, maintenance facilities, and factories for removing paint and surface coatings often exceed exposure limits put in place by Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Reducing a worker's occupational noise exposure is imperative from a safety and economics perspective.

Downhole Sour Corrosion And Scale Deposition In Oil Wells

Product Number: 51322-17694-SG

Author: Tao Chen, Frank Chang, Feng Liang, Steven Hochanadel

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Sour corrosion and iron sulphide scale deposition are two common flow assurance issues encountered in oilfields. Sour oil wells typically produce crude along with produced water and a significant amount of acidic gases such as carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. The high pressure and temperature conditions under the downhole tend to cause severe corrosion damage including metal loss and pitting, along with iron sulphide scale deposition. Iron sulfide deposition in sour wells is a corrosion induced scale problem. It potentially causes production decline, restricted well intervention, well shutdown, or even severe consequences towards to the abandoned wells.

Dual Functional Corrosion Inhibitor Design And Testing For Top-Of-Line And Bottom Of Line Corrosion

Product Number: 51322-17787-SG

Author: Larry Chen, Nihal Obeyesekere, Jonathan Wylde, Michael Sim

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

TOL corrosion is reported to occur in large diameter wet gas pipeline in stratified flow conditions
due to low fluid velocities1. With increasing distance from the inlet, the wet gas pipeline becomes
cooler as it loses heat to the environment. Such cooling causes water, hydrocarbon, and other
high vapor pressure species to condense on the pipe wall. The upper part of the pipe will
constantly be supplied with freshly condensed water while the less corrosive water saturated
with corrosion products will be drained along the pipe wall to the bottom of the line.

Duplex Coating on KYTC Bridges

Product Number: 41216-986-SG

Author: Bobby Meade, Sudhir Palle, Theodore Hopwood II

Publication Date: 2016

The 2014 US bridge inventory lists over 610,000 highway bridges. Industry experts believe that the cost of maintaining those bridges for repairs due to corrosion is at least $30 billion annually. Bridge owners do not have the resources to maintain bridges in good condition. New bridges are being constructed, at the rate of approximately 3,000 nationally each year. Those new bridges must not pose additional maintenance burdens on the already inadequate bridge maintenance budgets.

Durability Assessment of Foul-release Coatings

Product Number: 41212-715-SG

Author: David Tordonato, Dr. Allen Skaja

Publication Date: 2012

$20.00

The Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) is currently investigating the feasibility of using foul-release coatings to mitigate impacts caused by macro-fouling organisms such as zebra and quagga mussels. Durability of these coatings must be considered as a factor in determining overall life cycle costs. To this end, the Bureau of Reclamation has developed testing protocols to evaluate the durability of foul-release coatings with respect to abrasion, erosion resistance and the ability to overcoat existing equipment.

Effect Of Environmental Parameters On Atmospheric Corrosion Of Infrastructures Of Canada

Structural steel, which is a critical component of many infrastructures, can suffer from deterioration of steel by reaction with air and its pollutants known as atmospheric corrosion when exposed to the
environment. The risks associated with corrosion of newly-built and ageing infrastructure are high and their consequences costly. The recent International Measures of Prevention, Application, and
Economics of Corrosion Technologies (IMPACT) study led by NACE International (now renamed as
AMPP) has shown for Canada the estimated annual corrosion cost to be $51.9 billion, which is 2.9
% of Canada’s GDP.

Effect Of H2S On The Performance Of Welded 13% Cr Steel In Supercritical CO2

Product Number: 51322-17886-SG

Author: Shiladitya Paul

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Carbon steels such as API 5L X65 are widely used oil and gas exploration, production and transportation service. However, these steels tend to corrode in the presence of wet CO2 and corrosion is more pronounced in the presence of dissolved salts and acids. Other metals, alloys and polymers also degrade in the presence of high pressure gaseous and supercritical CO2. The corrosion rate of carbon steels in some aqueous environments have been reported to be more than a few millimeters per year.9-10 The situation could be further exacerbated by H2S where cracking can be an issue for high strength steels.

Effect of Heat Treatment Temperature on the Corrosion Protection Performance of Thermal Sprayed Aluminum Coating

Product Number: 41214-844-SG

Author: KyungJin Park, SangKyu Ryu, MyoungHo Ahn

Publication Date: 2014

$20.00

In the present study, thermal effects on the corrosion behavior and corrosion protection performance of TSA coating were investigated using various electrochemical techniques. Heat treatment at higher temperature induces more cracks in the sealer and aluminum coating. Water and corrosive species (e.g., Cl-) penetrate through the cracks, resulting in corrosion of steel substrate.

A lot of oil and gas facilities face corrosion problems because the production fluid contains some corrosive components represented by CO₂. Generally, corrosion inhibitors are used in order to mitigate corrosion problems of tubing and pipeline. Imidazoline is known as one of the active ingredients of corrosion inhibitors and widely used in the oil and gas industries. However, imidazoline-type inhibitor is easily hydrolyzed to amide if water mixes into it.

With the rapid development of China's economy, energy and transportation industries have developed rapidly, and more and more oil and gas pipelines and urban rail transit have been built and put into use. Urban rail transportation systems, such as subways or light rail, generally use direct current traction and backflow through the rail. Because the track is not completely insulated from the earth, it is inevitable that some electric current will be discharged from the track to the earth to form stray electric current, which will cause interference to the surrounding metal components such as buried oil and gas pipelines.
