Corrosion-Related Failure Cases: A Collection of AMPP, NACE, and SSPC Research

Product Number: 37692-pdf

Author: Multiple Authors

$250.00

PRE-ORDER TODAY:

When failures and incidents occur, corrosion nearly always emerges as the primary culprit, whether the failures are minor or major. Major incidents, naturally, magnify the consequences and have a significant impact on Health, Safety, and the Environment (HSE), as well as other factors such as:

Workplace injuries or fatalities
Environmental pollution
Property and equipment damage
Production downtime
Legal repercussions
Economical losses
Reputational harm

To prevent failures and their associated problems, it is crucial for engineers and professionals worldwide to share their experiences and the identified root causes for failures. Collaborative efforts can help raise awareness and prompt organizations to take necessary precautions, implement corrosion control measures, and thereby reducing the likelihood of catastrophic failures while ensuring the integrity of assets.

It is in that spirit, this title readers will gain insights into the effects of microorganisms such as sulfate-reducing bacteria, iron-reducing bacteria, and methanogens on internal corrosion in piping, the intricacies of coatings applications and lining damages in pipelines, investigations into erosion corrosion in wells, and the complexities of alternating current-cathodic protection failures.

Development Of For Multifunctional (Pit Detection + ER) Corrosion Monitoring Probe For Oil And Gas Internal Pipelines

Product Number: 51322-17820-SG

Author: Byeongho Ki, Cheolho Kang

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

One of the frequent and major problems encountered in the oil and gas production is the
internal corrosion of carbon steel pipelines. Corrosion can be categorized into uniform (or
general) corrosion, localized corrosion and erosion-corrosion. Uniform corrosion causes
overall metal loss and general thinning of metal. Localized corrosion has the appearance
of pits or grooves.

Effect Of Antimicrobial Halophilic Plant Extracts On Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC)

Product Number: 51322-18089-SG

Offshore oil production facilities are subject to internal corrosion, potentially leading to human and environmental risk and significant economic losses. Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) and reservoir souring are important factors for corrosion-related maintenance costs in the petroleum industry.1 MIC is caused by sulfate-reducing prokaryotes (SRP), which can be Bacteria (SRB) or Archaea (SRA), with the main focus in literature being on SRB.^2–5 The microorganisms most frequently reported in literature to be responsible for MIC are the SRB; Desulfovibrio, Desulfobacter, Desulfomonas, Desulfotomaculum, Desulfobacterium, Desulfobotulus, and Desulfotignum, and methanogens.^2,5

Electrode Tool Logging Approaches for Casing Inner Coating Monitoring

Product Number: 51320-14795-SG

Publication Date: 2020

To control the casing's severe CO2 inner corrosion and minimize damage to oil wells drilled into the Yan'an formation of Jurassic reservoirs; internal plastic coating was applied to the portion of the casing below the dynamic liquid level (nearly 700 m) for each of the more than 4000 wells drilled over the last 10 years. Considering the cost factor, it was not economic for the whole wellbore to have internal coating, so only the section with serious internal corrosion was internally coated with a modified epoxy-phenolic.

This kind of modified epoxy-phenolic coating has excellent mechanical and anti-corrosion performance. But it’s difficult to analyze the long term aging or local mechanical damage of downhole inner coating. New approaches by electrode logging tools have been studied for monitoring the inner coating.

A Saudi Aramco facility continues to serve a vital rule in the processing and export of crude oil. This facility is one of the few facilities worldwide that is considered to be fully sufficient with different processes within its boundaries. While processing hydrocarbon throughout the day, this facility also processes utilities to serve the nearby community as well as its own oper ation. The raw water that feeds the utility process arrives from a nearby fields through the 24” supply lines. These lines provide n. the subject RO plant within the utility process with the sufficient amount of water to sustain the huge magnitude of operation.

Ethics for the Corrosion Professional

Product Number: Ethics eCourse

$99.00

The corrosion profession, and the certified professionals who work in the industry, are committed to protecting people, assets, and the environment from the effects of corrosion. Those tasked with delivering the technical expertise to society must conduct their work with the knowledge and understanding of the ethical principles expected and required of those professionals.

The AMPP Code of Ethics is discussed in conjunction with relevant case studies and features real-life ethical violations of the AMPP attestations. Frameworks for making ethical decisions are also reviewed in this course along with the factors in the corrosion industry that can lead to unethical behavior.

This is an online, self-paced course which should take 1.5 to 2 hours to complete. After you have purchased the course in the store, log into your AMPP profile and select “Online Courses” to begin.

Purchase of this course includes a one-year subscription and is non-refundable. Students will have access to all course materials for a period of one year from the date of registration. All course work must be completed during this time period. Extensions or transfers cannot be granted.

Evaluation Of Hydrogen Embrittlement Of Nickel-Based Alloys In Cesium Formate With H2S/CO2

Product Number: 51322-18024-SG

Author: Xiaoji Li, Ramgopal Thodla

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Cesium formate (CsFo) brines have been used as the drilling and/or completion fluids in oil and gas wells in need of high-density fluids.^1,2 Multiple studies on corrosion of steels and corrosion resistance alloys (CRA) in formate environments have been reported in the literature.^2-8 It was known that the formate brines could undergo significant decomposition to form hydrogen when in contact with catalytic surfaces which CRA can act as. Therefore, there have been concerns that the CRA may catalyze the decomposition of formate brines to accelerate the generation of hydrogen which in turn may embrittle certain CRAs and endanger the relevant well equipment.

From Pits To Cracks: A Review Of 45-Years Of Published Research On Surface Trenches In Low Alloy Steels Exposed To H2S-Containing Environments

Product Number: 51322-17957-SG

$20.00

Carbon and low alloy steels (CS and LAS, respectively) used for exploration and production in the oil and gas (O&G) industry are normally exposed to environments that may contain H₂S in a wide range of concentrations. In aqueous solutions, H₂S acts as a cathodic poison.^1,2 A cathodic poison inhibits the recombination of atomic hydrogen to H₂, and as a result, favors its absorption by the metal.^1,2 In the presence of a susceptible microstructure and the simultaneous effect of applied or residual tensile stress, a crack can nucleate and propagate, when a critical concentration of hydrogen is reached in the metal.³ This environmentally assisted cracking (EAC) phenomenon is known as Sulfide Stress Cracking (SSC).² SSC is commonly addressed as a case of hydrogen embrittlement (HE) damage.²

Guidance For Thermal Stability Of Common Oilfield Chemicals

Product Number: 51322-17745-SG

Author: Tracey Jackson, Johnathon Brooks, Zhengwei Liu, Sunder Ramachandran

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

As oilfield technologies have advanced, they have made high temperature (HT) reservoirs more accessible. HTs make the application of chemical more difficult because chemical instability at HT restricts what intermediates will work in these environments and the safety and complexity of HT testing further adds to the challenge.
