The Long Term Effects Of Surface Preparation: Evaluating ISO 12944 In Offshore Coating Application With Waterjetting And Cleaning Additive

Offshore assets such as drilling rigs, production platforms, and wind turbines present challenges for corrosion prevention maintenance. The primary defense against atmospheric corrosion on structural steel in offshore saltwater environments is a protective coating system.

Several factors cause protective coatings to degrade rapidly: besides wearing and damage encountered in installation and use, ultraviolet light breaks down the organic resins and corrosive seawater causes under creep at any breaks in the coating. Maintenance coating for offshore atmospheric systems can therefore be necessary as early as the second year.

The NACE International Institute Contractor Accreditation Program (NIICAP) is an industry managed accreditation program that validates a contractor's quality assurance program, support practices, and production processes.

SSPC established the Coating Application Specialist (CAS) Certification Program for industrial painters in 2008, at present there are 8 standards for applicators. It includes QP1 FIELD APPLICATION TO COMPLEX INDUSTRIAL AND MARINE STRUCTURES, QP2 FIELD REMOVAL OF HAZARDOUS COATINGS and QP3 SHOP PAINTING ACCREDITATION PROGRAM.

NEPCOAT stands for the Northeast Protective Coating Committee and is comprised of ten
member Departments of Transportation, from Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, Maine,
New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont. NEPCOAT
was founded in 1992 and has for thirty years evaluated and qualified paint systems for use on
bridges, both for shop-applied new steel, and field-applied totally cleaned existing steel.

The NH-ME Metallized Memorial Bridge

Product Number: 51322-17837-SG

Author: Jerry S. Zoller

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Metallizing in NH was a coating used only sparingly in the past at critical locations on two major bridges. Its greater use was severely limited by the lack of qualified applicators, absence from bridge fabricator operations, and overall excessive cost. This picture changed dramatically with the impetus of the new metallized Memorial Bridge project and the massive investment in metallizing equipment at a large local bridge fabricator that made metallizing possible for this bridge. The successful use and ten-year performance of the thermal spray coating (TSC), i.e. metallizing, on this bridge has had a significant impact on metallized New England bridges to
follow.

The Optimized Inspection Approaches of PSA Adsorber Weldment Integrity with the Buried Cracks

Product Number: 51324-20689-SG

Publication Date: 2024

The weldments in PSA adsorbers have been examined by several non-destructive examination (NDE) methods, and then the metallurgical examinations were followed by NDE to confirm the nature of defects. Time of flight diffraction (TOFD), manual ultrasonic testing (UT), and phased array ultrasonic testing (PAUT) were employed to determine the location and size of defects inside of the weldments. Then, many crack-like defects were found in the weldments, and all of them were transverse defects with various sizes and orientations. To understand the nature of crack-like defects, we destructively examined the defects using the metallurgical characterization tools. The defects were found to be in two types: a chevron(1) and a vertical transverse crack. It has been conjectured that the chevron crack was caused by hydrogen during the welding process. And the vertical transverse crack was originated from the small defect that occurred in the weldment during the manufacturing of the vessel. In response to the occurrence of these defects, the effectiveness of manufacturing and in-service inspections was evaluated, and an inspection strategy for aged and future PSA adsorbers has been established. The details of NDE and metallurgical studies and the newly established inspection policy will be discussed in the proceedings.

The Path towards More Consistent Evaluation of Corrosion Inhibitors Used in the Oil and Gas Industry

Product Number: 51324-20702-SG

Author: Trevor Place; Sankara Papavinasam

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

This paper provides an overview of various properties influencing efficacy of corrosion inhibitors including transportability, efficiency, availability, and secondary inhibitor properties (TEAS); highlights various standards available to evaluate these properties; describes status of implementation of these standards; emphasizes the importance of developing standard test methods; identifies the gaps in evaluating inhibitor efficacy; and elaborates an industry effort underway to fill the gaps and to develop standard test methods on corrosion inhibitor evaluation, selection, application, and monitoring.

The Path Towards More Consistent Evaluation of Corrosion Inhibitors Used in the Oil and Gas Industry

Product Number: MECC23-20250-SG

Publication Date: 2023

Time-tested and proven methods to control corrosion of oil and gas industry infrastructures (pipelines, facilities, and refineries) include the use of appropriate materials, protective coatings, cathodic protection (CP), and corrosion inhibitors.

Criteria for evaluation, qualification, and selection of materials, coatings and application of CP are
quantitative and are typically followed rigorously (Table 1). Standards on these quantitative criteria are established, and in many cases have been adopted by regulatory authorities.

As traditional reserves deplete onshore and offshore, the oil industry is moving into increasingly deeper waters and harsh environments in the pursuit of hydrocarbons. As the industry drills deeper, the challenges that face infrastructure increase markedly with the longstanding issues of corrosion. One of the major challenges to corrosion management is the extreme pressure and temperature.

The Performance of Phenolic Epoxy Coating after Thermal Exposure for Corrosion Protection in Marine Environments

Organic coating is the most widely used method of corrosion protection. its corrosion protective abilities depend on physical, chemical and mechanical properties including adhesion to a substrate and essential barrier properties against corrosive species, such as water and oxygen. The durability of corrosion protection coatings is evaluated based on their effectiveness in providing long-term protection to metallic substrates when these materials are exposed to aggressive corrosion environments.

The oil and gas industry is currently operating numerous fields that contain high concentrations of CO2 and H2S at elevated temperatures. Under such conditions, internal corrosion control has emerged as a significant challenge, leading to severe material failures in production wells and posing a substantial threat to oil and gas infrastructure.

Internal corrosion of pipelines represents a critical risk during the initial stages of production, with a reported occurrence of above 9,000 failures between 1990 and 2012.
