Effect of Plastic Strain on Hydrogen Absorption of Low Alloy Carbon Steel for Linepipe

Picture for Effect of Plastic Strain on Hydrogen Absorption of Low Alloy Carbon Steel for Linepipe
Available for download

In the oil and gas industry, oil country tubular goods and linepipes are exposed to the wet H2S environment (sour environment) in some cases. The presence of H2S promotes hydrogen entry into steel due to the catalytic action of H2S. The absorbed hydrogen enhanced by H2S affects hydrogen embrittlement.

Hydrogen embrittlement, such as sulfide stress cracking, occurs in low-alloy carbon steels under sour environments. The amount of absorbed hydrogen increases with increasing plastic strain introduced into the steel materials. The susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement increases with the strain introduction. However, even though various strains applied in various paths are introduced through pipe manufacturing processes, the effect of the strain path on hydrogen absorption behavior during operation has not been fully understood.


This paper describes the relationship between the strain path and hydrogen absorption behavior in the low-alloy carbon steel. Various type of strain paths consisting of tensile, compressive, and cyclic strains were applied to steel specimens. Hydrogen concentrations in these pre-strained specimens were compared after hydrogen was charged using an immersion test. The hydrogen concentration of the pre-strained steel did not correspond to the integrated amount of each applied strain, but to the maximum strain that was correlated with the maximum stress during the pre-strain introduction.

Martensitic Stainless Steel (SMSS) is widely used for downhole production tubing and liners in the Oil & Gas industry. Optimization of the tubular material chemistry, cleanliness and manufacturing route has delivered useful performance in H2S-containing environments (specifically SSC and stress corrosion cracking [SCC])3 resistance4,5,6. Some tubular accessories and most completion equipment require sizes not readily delivered by tubular product form. In these instances, bar stock material is a pragmatic choice.

Traditionally, sour severity of high-pressure, high temperature (HPHT) oil and gas production wells were assessed by H2S partial pressure (PH2S): The mole fraction of H2S in the gas (yH2S) multiplied by the total pressure (PT). While PH2S is appropriate for characterizing the sour severity of wellbores operating at low total pressures (e.g., PT < 35 MPa) and/or for highly sour systems (e.g., yH2S > 1 mol%), PH2S usually over-predicts the actual sour severity of HPHT systems, leading to sub-optimal material selection options.

Additive manufacturing (AM) is a transformative technology that has opened areas of design space that were previously inaccessible by enabling the production of complex, three-dimensional parts and intricate geometries that were impractical to produce via traditional manufacturing methods. However, the extreme thermo-mechanical conditions in the AM build process (e.g., cooling rates ranging from 103 K/s
to 106 K/s and repeated heating/cooling cycles) generate deleterious microstructures with high residual stresses, and extreme compositional gradients.
