Qualification Testing of Fusion Bonded Epoxy Coatings for Pipeline Exteriors

Product Number: 41206-288-SG

Author: Kenneth B. Tator

Publication Date: 2006

$20.00

The selection of a coating for suitable use on the exterior of a pipeline is an important consideration due to the safety and cost consequences of potential corrosion. Because there are numerous fusion bonded epoxy (FBE) mainline and field joint coating systems available, the selection of the optimum coating system is as much an art as a science.

Quantification of Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion in Injection Water Pipelines

Product Number: 51317--9343-SG

ISBN: 9343 2017 CP

Author: Uffe Thomsen

Publication Date: 2017

$20.00

MIC-causing microorganisms were investigated in a 16” diameter and 9.6 km long injection water pipeline. Nitrate was added to the water and pigging debris from the pipeline showed that both sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB), nitrate-utilizing bacteria, and methanogens were present in numbers of 105 – 106 cells/g.

Remediation of Microbially Contaminated Horizontal Wells with Acrolein

Product Number: 51320-14992-SG

Author: Jodi B. Wrangham, Adam Bounds, Jerry L. Conaway, Jim Ott, Mason Long, and Corey Stevens

Publication Date: 2020

The lengthy laterals of horizontal wells often pose microbiological challenges, as they provide more area to become microbially contaminated and require larger volumes of fluid and biocide for treatment. A Permian Basin oilfield has been experiencing MIC-related failures in its horizontal wells, which is of concern due to the associated high workover cost.

Laboratory biocide challenge testing identified several common oilfield chemistries and combinations thereof as being effective against this field’s population of microbes. However, aggressive applications of these products in the field neither delivered an effective microbial kill nor prevented the treated wells from experiencing further MIC and failures.

An acrolein field trial was conducted on a set of problematic, microbially contaminated horizontal wells over a time period of approximately one year. During this timeframe, these wells experienced microbial control for the first time, defined as meeting and maintaining microbial KPIs. Additional benefits were realized as a result of acrolein, including a dramatic improvement in water quality evident as a decrease in iron sulfide and suspended solids, a clean-out of the wells inferred by an initial increase of solids post-acrolein, a decrease in the corrosion rate as indicated by a significant reduction in iron and manganese counts, a decrease in the well failure rate, an increase in production, and an overall cost savings associated with the application of acrolein.

Retro Tank Rehab One City’s Riveting Tale

Product Number: 51218-097-SG

Author: Patrick Brown

Publication Date: 2018

$20.00

Cities and towns across the nation are undergoing revitalization programs at an ever-increasing pace as citizens demand better recreation facilities, more choices in housing and entertainment, and maximum benefits of economic development. But what do city planners do when their “ugly old water tower” stands right smack dab in the middle of the area to be redeveloped? Their water system needs the tank, but their constituents don’t like the looks of it…so they make it the landmark at the center of their plans!

Robotic Sprayed-in-Place Pipelining: the Polyurea Goes Round & Round

Product Number: 41214-847-SG

Author: Dudley J Primeaux II, Todd Gomez

Publication Date: 2014

$20.00

The polyurea technology is not new to pipelining work, with earlier basic applications dating back more than 15 years. Much of this work was either performed by hand spraying (large diameter pipe) or simple robotic systems for individual joint sections of pipe. Continued work over the years has proven that in-place pipelines can be commercially completed as well. More recent work has even shown that in addition to long, straight runs, robotic developments have allowed for lining both 45° and 90° radius bends in the pipeline system.
