Organizations are undergoing radical changes to improve their business performance to stay competitive in today’s digital environment. From the C-suite to shop floor, decision makers are going through radical rethinking (and exploring new ways) of how their organizations utilize and manage the intersection of technology, people, and processes to fundamentally change the way they do business, remain competitive, and maximize business value for their customers.
The “fourth industrial revolution” (Industry 4.0) brought about digitization of data and information. With “internet of things” (IoT) sensors, companies are able to capture information that was inaccessible digitally prior and make it available for optimizing production, enhancing performance, and improving reliability of operating assets. Industrial IoT (IIoT) technologies are now commonplace in the energy sector; employed across upstream, downstream, and midstream assets, as well as in utilities. However, with increased deployments and adoption of IIoT also comes the need to deploy latest technologies in pursuit of new business models.
The energy sector and particularly the oil and gas industry has traditionally been slow in adopting new and emerging technologies. Other sectors of the economy are undergoing disruption at a much faster pace than the energy sector, with new Startups using technology to radically change interaction of people and processes, develop new business models, and create value. However, in recent years, technology is being employed not only to replace manual processes with automated electronic systems, but to reinvent ways oil and gas companies do business, execute work functions, and interact with customers. Disruptive technologies are being harnessed and deployed at scale by connecting machines and intelligent devices to create a smart network of interconnected systems across the value chain. However, the depth of what can be achieved is yet to be fully harnessed.
For instance, analyzing industry data collected on a large scale both at the edge and on cloud to identify operational patterns and make optimal business predictions across the value chain. The
“fifth industrial revolution,” Industry 5.0 is the new emerging industrial technology that enables collaboration between humans and smart systems. Industry 4.0 lays the foundation for this next emerging technology that incorporates human behavior and cognitive capabilities into industry automation

It is well known in the hot rolled steel making business that nonmetallic inclusions play critical
role in defining steel performance. The objective of this paper is to study laminations that were
detected via Phased Array UT system in X60MS Class-C High Frequency Welded Pipe intended for
offshore application. The linear intermittent laminations appear along the pipe and adjacent to
the weld seam from both sides at a width of 30 to 40 mm with various depths. Technical review
was carried out on 5 available pipes, pertaining to the same heat of the original pipe identified
earlier with lamination, through model experiments; both on the laboratory and on the industrial
scale. At the beginning, depth and distribution of detected laminations were analyzed by manual
UT mapping using normal beam probe. Metallurgical analysis via Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX)
was carried out on three samples to determine the chemical composition as well as the
morphology of the lamination. The type of inclusion which turned out to be type B (Alumina-
Al2O3) inclusion was identified by evaluating EDX results using Method A per ASTM E45. As it is
a pure material based incident, failure analysis was carried out by the steel maker to identify the
associated root causes from process control prospective and the appropriate preventive
measures to avoid reoccurrence. Eventually, the applied quality control measures during
manufacturing process of HFW pipes, represented in the deployment of UT systems, were
reviewed to identify the reason behind missing such important defect before pipes are being
shipped to the client.

This paper presents the second part of the collaborative study on the qualification of carbon steel and CRA material grades for CCS wells injection service following AMPP2023 publication C2023-18760 for CO2 injection casing. In this paper the focus is on the CRA alloy tubing for CO2 injection. The Charpy impact testing and fracture mechanics CTOD testing was performed on representative high strength 25Cr CRA alloys of 80 ksi and 125 ksi grades to provide data for validation of the BS 7910 Annex J Master curve procedure for converting Charpy impact values to fracture toughness. The study showed that BS 7910 Annex J Master curve model can be applied to high strength OCTG 25Cr CRA grades. An example case study is presented for an injection tubing showing that the API 5CRA requirements for Group 2 materials appear to be sufficient for the accidental load scenarios considered in CO2 injection well design.

The power generation industry is seeking solutions to prevent failures in high energy piping systems including main steam and hot reheat steam pipelines. A thorough review of prior failures in these systems has shown that 60-70% of all failures can be attributed to hanger and strain monitoring systems not performing within specification for extended periods of times (typically 1-5 years). The typical failure mode has been creep in seam welds. The consequence of failure for high energy piping can be severe and the effect of unexpected or unknown displacements cannot be quantified when estimating remaining life.In this case study we developed wireless LIDAR sensor networks that can be installed on either hangers or above insulation on these piping systems. The purpose of the sensor network is to protect life property and environment by reducing the likelihood catastrophic failures of high energy piping. The wireless sensors would communicate with the central control system at a power station and alert plant staff when the piping strain / bulk displacement is outside of design limits. A Bayesian network model was created which links the piping displacement to the remaining creep life predicted based on API 591 “API 579-1: Fitness-For-Service”. Therefore by knowing real-time pipe displacement measured using wireless sensor network the remaining creep life can be dynamically predicted though the Bayesian network model.

A steel surface has been properly prepared to a white metal blast and it looks great … to the naked eye at least. But is it? Why is a surface that has the correct profile and appears to be perfectly clean typically not good enough? A standard abrasive blast will give you the profile and visible cleanliness, but how clean is it? Testing is the only way to determine. That is testing for conductivity, chlorides, and any other contaminants.

To increase efficiency a wide range of energy-related applications are pushing components to higher temperatures where environmental degradation can be life limiting. Unlike mechanical properties such as creep there is no simple degradation parameter to capture the time-temperature-thickness limitations of candidate alloys. For simple high temperature oxidation an issue is how to quantify the degradation rate in a manner useful to component designers. A collaborative effort has used 5000 h exposures of 0.2-0.5mm thick commercial alloys at 950°-1050°C for an initial model framework based on the Quadakkers reservoir model and basic assumptions about the failure criteria. The current effort has exposed 0.5 mm thick specimens of one NiCr alloy for 3-20 kh at 900°C in laboratory air to validate and modify the initial model.

Interpretation of Electrical Codes for Cathodic Protection Installations

Product Number: 51319-13187-SG
Author: Matt Viveiros
Publication Date: 2019
$20.00

Cathodic protection (CP) systems are often a vital component of integrity management programs for oil sands facilities. The electrical components of these systems must be designed and installed in accordance with regional electrical codes such as the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) or the National Electrical Code (NEC). The CEC and NEC include limited direction on the electrical requirements for CP systems. This paper examines installations of typical CP components and suggests ways in which the CEC and NEC can be interpreted. It is demonstrated that interpretation of electrical requirements for CP systems can be difficult. To help improve compliance and understanding future revisions of these codes should provide additional guidance for the design and installation of CP systems.

Tetrakis(hydroxymethyl)-phosphonium Sulfate (THPS) is a very common active ingredient in oil and gas biocides. While product labels provide broad guidelines application dosing the lowest effective dose of THPS is difficult to determine. Site water chemistry and bacteria biology variability will affect the dose need to achieve the desired level of bacteria population control. For these reasons biocide dose response studies are commonly conducted on solutions containing bacteria to determine the effect of treatments before application.

Mechanized GMAW Root Profile Irregularities and Its Effects

Product Number: MPWT19-15392
Author: Alawi Al Saigh, Fahad Al Mahashir,
$0.00

This paper illustrates and discusses a failure that occurred during construction of a carbon steel pipeline, in which the root profile irregularities led to an unacceptable surface condition that affected the application of liquid epoxy coating. This irregularity was identified to be weld root protrusions having sharp edges due to poor implementation of Mechanized GMAW welding process and periodic maintenance of equipment which left a gap between copper backing shoes of the internal clamps. Therefore, the integrity and effectiveness of applying internal coating of carbon steel pipeline was jeopardized, which necessitated all effected weld joints with unacceptable root profile to be rectified.
In order to identify the root cause(s) of these irregularities, the client and contractor performed an in-depth thorough investigation. In addition to the investigation findings, the paper will also highlight the following:
a. The resolution, which involved the cutting out and re-welding of more than 1200 joints.
b. The significant impact of the rectification process on the project’s schedule and cost.
c. Recommendations for future projects.
Furthermore, as all data and findings collected during this investigation were crosschecked against project design and construction requirements, the following identified areas of improvement and preventive measures are recommended:
a. Proper project planning, execution and resource availability.
b. Pre-production qualification of welding/coating application and quality assurance process.
c. Periodic preventive maintenance of the welding equipment.
d. Application of improved techniques/technologies to verify the weld root profile.
Implementing the above should result in enhanced process control, improved root profile and reduced coating application deficiencies that will minimize reworks, reduce rejection, improve
progress, and ultimately provide the desired quality for both weldments and coating at an optimum cost.

When a paralleling power line or pipeline route has been committed to close to an existing utility the induced AC (IAC) mitigation engineer may be seveely limited in the techniques available to adequately ground the pipeline(s) where required. Such was the case on a recently completed 220 kV wind farm transmission line in southern California. Very extensive computer modeling was required to find acceptable grounding techniques and practices on the four large diameter natural gas pipelines that were affcted by the 220 kV circuit. Work was divided into two phases so that the initial wind farm load could be safely transmitted before the complete mitigation package could be constructed. Design and construction of the phase 2 mitigation system required well over a year to complete and seiously delayed adding additional generation to the circuit.

Solid particle erosion is one of the key issues affecting operational reliability and the cost of tools and equipment in the oil and gas industry. In a particular erosive environment, the extent to which erosion occurs depends on many factors, such as flow conditions, fluid properties, wall material, and particle properties. As a result, it is difficult to investigate the effects of all of these factors using experimental methods. One comprehensive alternative, however, is to use computational fluid dynamics (CFD), which can provide the analyst with a great deal of information about the phenomenon, such as where erosion occurs as well as its severity. Of course, when using any CFD-based erosion prediction method, care must be taken when selecting appropriate meshing practices, solution parameters, and sub-models.
Best practices and guidelines for solid particle erosion modeling using CFD are described. In addition to discussing many parameters that should be considered when using CFD to predict solid particle erosion, the effects of many of these parameters and sub-models within the CFD codes are also discussed with several examples comparing CFD results to available experimental data. This paper can serve as a first step toward developing a comprehensive guideline for the industrial modeling of erosion phenomena and to help engineers improve the accuracy of erosion wear predictions.

The Oil & Gas industry is showing a growing demand for systems and equipment that allow for quick repair interventions on damaged subsea pipelines. Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composite wrapping systems have been introduced and accepted as alternative temporary repair systems. Composite wrapping is an efficient repair method and well established for onshore pipelines. It has been successfully extended offshore and, recently, for subsea in shallow water applications with divers. This paper provides a critical overview of the subject technique, including advantages over traditional repair methods, pipe defect applicability, reference standards and specific state-of-the-art technology. Composite wrapping solutions for diver-less and deep-water applications are not yet available on the market. Critical challenges to overcome in order to afford the use of this technology for these applications are outlined. A development project is currently ongoing to achieve a deep-water composite wrapping repair solution with the aim of proposing innovative and cost-effective methods in support of subsea asset Inspection, Maintenance and Repair (IMR).

A common problem in the oil and gas industry is the precipitation of organic and inorganic materials onto tubing surfaces when the process stream undergoes pressure and/or temperature changes. The resultant deposition of these materials onto the tube surface can be as benign as a nuisance to a major problem involving both production output/delays and operational safety. A potential solution to this problem is to apply a coating with “nonstick” properties to prevent scaling and organic fouling where sweet or sour conditions prevail. Fluoropolymers are a class of materials that have excellent chemical resistance and release properties and can function at high temperature.This paper describes the development of novel fluoropolymer-based coatings for preventing fouling from a variety of inorganic and organic foulants under sweet or sour conditions. Testing protocols included autoclave acid resistance cathodic disbondment Atlas cell scaling erosion abrasion and impact testing. In addition several in-field case studies will be presented which highlight the capability of these exceptional coatings under various conditions.

This paper presents basic information on fusion welding processes used to weld pressure pipes. More specifically, it looks at the technical improvements of the past 20 years. It details the changes to the GMAW process achieved when Lincoln Electric Company introduced the STT GMAW approach, which revolutionized the industry. It then explains how this new GMAW process allowed welding shops to achieve root pass penetration and fusion that rivaled those achieved with GTAW but with much higher productivity and far less experienced welders. The STT also facilitated the automatization of pressure pipe welding. We will show the impact on quality and productivity for carbon steel. This paper results from reviewing several research articles and from shop experiments performed in a welding shop in Hamriyah Free Zone UAE

Aside from the use of successful track records, it is commonplace for coating specifications to be written based upon test criteria deemed important by specification authorities. But are the tests relevant to the intended service environment? Or has the meaning of the test data been misinterpreted? Perhaps the tests have been ascribed a level of accuracy and dependency that the test method simply cannot deliver. These are vital factors to be considered if a coating specification is to be supported in a meaningful way and to prevent all sorts of problems.

Dope free solutions for premium OCTG connections to replace both storage and running thread compounds are beneficial for saving time (lower running time), for environmental considerations (no discharge of dope) as well as improving running performances. However, they have never been qualified in dense CO2 stream environments containing brines, while dense CO2 is known to be a good solvent toward polymers. A test protocol has been designed for that purpose, that combines an exposure to dense CO2 stream then to CO2 saturated brine environment. The objective is to duplicate a CO2 injection well life, from the start of the production, shut-in phases with formation water going up the tubing and restart (saturation of the brines with high CO2 pressure). Evaluation of the performance of a proprietary dope free solution was done by direct comparison with conventional running compounds. It has been observed a resistance of the dope free connection to dense CO2 at least as good as the dope connection on a super duplex material.

Inspection of ballast tanks and enclosures is generally performed using traditional methods such as
visual inspection and non-destructive evaluation (NDE) techniques. However, it is common for these
methods to often be labor intensive and limited by physical restrictions that prohibit access to certain
areas. Further, the evaluation of the coating condition is heavily dependent on the inspector, and the
quality of the data gathered is varying.

Self-healing coatings have been promising due to their automatic recovering functions, which can extend the coating lifetime with lower maintenance costs. One of the most effective strategies to achieve self-healing property is to encapsulate healing agents inside microcapsules and integrate the microcapsules into the coating matrix.
