Additive manufacturing can manufacture components that were previously impossible - without compromising strength, ductility and corrosion resistance. The pitting corrosion resistance of a selective laser melted Nickel alloy has been evaluated by electrochemical methods.
Precipitation-hardened nickel-based alloys have a long tradition in oilfield applications. Due to their high strength good ductility and excellent environmentally assisted cracking resistance they have been successfully used for wellhead components artificial lift applications and directional drilling tools particularly in demanding environments where superior corrosion resistance is necessary. Additive manufacturing is breaking into the oil and gas industry with current research efforts focused on demonstrating suitability for manufacturing components that were previously impossible to produce with conventional subtractive manufacturing processes without compromising material properties such as strength ductility and corrosion resistance. The pitting corrosion resistance of a direct metal laser melted Ni-based alloy having a similar chemical composition to alloy UNS N07718 in chloride-containing solutions has been evaluated by electrochemical methods. Results from cyclic potentiodynamic polarization curves demonstrate that with comparable surface quality the additively manufactured Ni-based alloy behaves similar with regard to pitting corrosion susceptibility to UNS N07718 wrought material in chloride containing environments.

The overall goal was to determine if a set of additive manufacturing (AM) parts could comply with the testing requirements of wrought or welded materials for sour service as outlined in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3:2015. Recommendations for a qualification pathway for AM parts in sour service are included.

The main scope of this work is to explore different process configurations to understand the corrosion response of additive manufactured alloys and to suggest the parameters to be controlled for future qualification in sour environment.
Corrosion rates of low porosity AM S31603 and AM N06210 in several kinds of acidic solutions were similar to those of wrought alloys respectively, the corrosion rates of AM S31603 and AM N06210 became higher with increasing porosity of each specimen.
