Saline Water Conversion Corporation (SWCC) is the largest producer of water by its different water desalination plants distributed around the kingdom. Produced water is transmitted through underground pipelines. These pipelines are more than 8,000 KM in length and varying diameter from 8 thru 75 in.
Thousands of kilometers of pipelines are being utilized to transport produced water among different regions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Underground pipelines, carrying produced water, are externally subjected to different types of soil. In order to protect them, an external coating and internal cement lining are applied. Produced water had fixed parameters quality range for long periods of time. Decisions were made to increase the concentration of total dissolved solids (TDS) of the produced water from 130 ppm to 300 ppm plus. An increase in TDS of produced water would raise chloride ion concentration.
The current research aims to measure the effects of higher content of chloride in produced water on water pipelines. Onsite visual inspection of pipeline internals was performed after 1 year of exposure to new TDS range. In addition to that, corrosion behavior of carbon steel and two types of stainless steel in different chloride concentrations and temperatures were studied through weight loss and electrochemical methods.
Results showed that carbon steel experienced the highest corrosion rates at higher temperatures. Changing the content of chloride had small effects on corrosion rate at the same temperature. Stainless steels were resistant enough to both chloride concentration differences and varying temperatures.
Oil and gas production from highly saline reservoirs can present challenges to the completion materials. The most saline fields often require downhole injection of (low chloride) wash water to dilute the produced water and mitigate the threat of halite precipitation on the production tubulars. The present paper investigates the threats associated with the co-mingled wash water and production fluids with respect to common completion materials.

topcoats utilized on the exterior skin of Department of Defense (DoD) aircraft (i.e., fixed and rotary wing) and ground support equipment (GSE) are two-component (2K) polyurethanes (PUs) that are qualified to MIL-PRF-85285 performance requirements. These topcoats are formed from the chemical MARCH reaction of hydroxyl- and isocyanate-functional molecules to generate highly cross-linked polymeric networks that contain carbamate (i.e., urethane) linkages. Formation of these cross-linked networks result in durable coatings with excellent hydrocarbon resistance, mechanical and thermal properties, including resistance to ultraviolet (UV) degradation from sunlight.
The case study presented in this paper is for a 7-story apartment building situated in a beach-front location in Sydney, Australia. The building was constructed circa 1977 and over the years was affected by concrete defects related to chloride ingress from the adjacent sea front.
