The steel decks and structures of an FLNG must be protected against brittle fracture that can follow accidental LNG spillage. The resultant structural failures put at risk lives and assets yet LNG spill mechanisms are barely understood and the epoxy materials used so far for CSP are expensive and can be improved.For the first FLNG projects CSP materials were derived from passive fire protection (PFP) with increased thicknesses to extend the domain of application. A need for improvement was identified both in CSP material performance testing and product design.In this paper we will present the outcome of a Technip led Joint Industry Project as well as ISO activity on CSP.During the test campaign many products were evaluated for their ability to improve structural design and decrease the need for IMR (Inspection Maintenance and Repair). Initial screening was followed by physical tests to assess performance.In parallel we participated to the creation of an ISO committee dedicated to the publication of standards on materialtestingfor CSP.The paper will present our tests results and the test method to assess material resistance during accidental cryogenic release now included in a new standard ISO 20088-1.

Cracking in Aging Austenitic Stainless Steel on Cryogenic Pipeline Application

Product Number: 51319-13205-SG

Publication Date: 2019

Many unexpected cracks occur in aging of more than eighteen years old austenitic stainless steel on cryogenic pipeline application. The operation needed to be disrupted before undertaking repairs or maintenance; resulting in delay transmission. Systemic Root Cause Analysis reveals that random cracks initiated on external surface when operating condition reaches room temperature. Degradation of cold thermal insulation provides accessibility for air-borne chloride to the pipelines. Fatigue crack propagation through metal is driven by thermal stress during start/stop service operation period proven by microstructure analysis and NDT inspection result. An assessment suggests that the pipeline need to be replaced. Corrosion controls on further pipeline are established.

Distributed Sacrificial Cathodic Protection – A New Cost Effective Solution to Prevent Corrosion on Subsea Structures

Product Number: 51317--8941-SG

In this paper, a new concept named CP by distributed sacrificial anodes (DSA) is presented. The main principle of CP by DSA is to convert cathode area to anode area by distributing anode mass over the surface of the equipment to be protected.
