NACE SP0291-2023, Care, Handling, and Installation of Internally Plastic-Coated Oilfield Tubular Goods and Accessories

Product Number: NACE SP0291-2023

Publication Date: 2023

$109.00

This standard practice covers the care, handling, transportation, and installation of internally plastic-coated (IPC) oilfield tubular goods and accessories (IPC material). Some internal plastic coatings are inherently brittle or may be incom- patible with various chemicals used in oil and gas production operations and therefore are susceptible to damage from poor handling procedures, well operations, and chemical attack. Coating damage (e.g., cracks, chips, and disbond- ment) reduces coating effectiveness and results in premature coating failure.

NACE TM0316-2023, Four-Point Bend Testing of Materials for Oil and Gas Applications

Product Number: NACE TM0316-2023

Publication Date: 2023

$109.00

Four-point bend testing is used extensively in the oil and gas industry to evaluate resistance of metals to sulfide stress cracking and stress corrosion cracking. The face of the specimen to be tested is stressed in tension and the reverse face in compression. The test is carried out for a specified exposure period with the specimen held under constant displacement using compact loading jigs. The compact nature of the jigs enables testing of several specimens in the test vessel simultaneously. Despite the apparent simplicity of the test, there are many factors that can influence the test results. The purpose of this standard is to establish a reliable methodology for conducting the tests to enhance repeatability and reproducibility of test data. The results of the tests can then be used with greater confidence to rank the performance of metals, the relative aggressiveness of environments, and to provide a basis for qualifying metals for service application. As such, the standard will be of particular benefit to materials and corrosion engineers in the oil and gas sector and to test laboratories providing critical data.

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

$20.00

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.

TM0198-2020, “Slow Strain Rate Test Method for Screening Corrosion-Resistant Alloys for Stress Corrosion Cracking in Sour Oilfield Service”

Product Number: TM0198-2020

ISBN: 1-57590-051-3

Publication Date: 2020

$109.00

This standard establishes a slow strain rate (SSR) test method for screening corrosion-resistant alloys (CRAs) (i.e., stainless steels and nickel-based alloys) for resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) at elevated temperatures in sour oilfield production environments. The SSR test, which is relatively short in duration, incorporates a slow, dynamic strain applied at a constant extension rate. This results in acceleration of the initiation of cracking in susceptible materials, thereby simulating rather severe conditions.

The standard specifies reagents, test specimen, test equipment, determination of baseline material properties, environmental and mechanical test conditions, test procedure, and analysis and reporting of test results. It is intended for use by laboratory investigators for screening CRAs for resistance to SCC in sour oilfield service.

This revision extends the scope of the standard to address the screening of precipitation-hardened nickel-based alloys for resistance to hydrogen induced stress cracking (HISC) using the SSR test method.
