Inspection of offshore pipelines is essential to provide vital information required for integrity assessment to allow data driven engineering decisions to be made and prevent costly failures. This paper presents experience from applying Internal Corrosion Direct Assessment (ICDA) for offshore pipelines in the North Sea.

Controlled Humidity Protection (CHP) reduces corrosion d/t high relative humidity (exceeding 40%). Addition of the vapor phase corrosion inhibitors to the CHP provide a more effective corrosion protection. A dry air system can will not be able to prevent corrosion.
A preliminary evaluation of the use of Surface Enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) to monitor Biofilm. SERS was used to monitor the growth of Desulfovibrio vulgaris and Desulfovibrio desulfuricans on UNS S30400 stainless steel samples in-situ from pre-inoculation through the initial hours of growth at 37 °C and atmospheric pressure.
A compatibility study of two elastomers with low and high nitrile content was done with the aim of understanding the performance of elastomeric materials used in progressive cavities pumps in environments such as H2S, CO2 and different crude oils to simulate real conditions in the lab.
This study is focused on description, discussion and analysis of the different technologies available against external corrosion in offshore export pipelines and its suitability for the Venezuelan pipeline offshore projects. Several anti-corrosive protective coatings and concrete weight coating were evaluated.
As part of a project to develop a database of seawater corrosion resistance including resistance to microbiologically-influenced corrosion (MIC) seawater, MIC exposure tests of five stainless steel alloys were undertaken for three and six month durations.
Fatigue and fracture performance of UNS N07718 (718) and UNS N07716 (625+) in sour environments over a range of temperatures (300 to 400°F) and chloride concentrations (0.15wt% to 25wt% NaCl). Rising displacement fracture toughness test performed in a range of environments.
Chemical treatment of reservoir fluids within the wellbore is essential for the control of associated corrosion and scale deposition. The Wafra Risk Assessment was developed with the Likelihood of Failure (LoF) based on historical corrosion well workover failures and the Consequence of Failure (CoF) directly tied to oil daily oil production.
The case study demonstrates different approaches towards what went wrong and why on pressure safety valve susceptible to MIC growth. The Eocene Sub Centre-1 Shipping Pump discharge header connected pressure safety valve (01PSV172) reported leaking from the body and POD requested Asset Integrity Division to conduct Root Cause Analysis with recommendation.
Sour service behavior of a 110ksi material was investigated in a range of production environments. Slow strain rate tests were performed at a strain rate of 510-7/s, in sweet as well as in sour production environments. The strain to failure in sweet environments is lower than the in-air values and is substantially lower in the presence of H2S.
There are advantages to Post-tensioned (PT) concrete construction compared to conventional reinforcement. However, corrosion caused tendon failures have recently been reported d/t chemically and/or physically deficient grout. A predictive model has been developed that projects onset and rate of wire and strand fractures.
A corrosion cracking assessment evaluated a 13Cr-5Ni-2Mo 110 ksi grade martensitic stainless steel as a potential well tubing material for oil and gas production from Gulf of Mexico reservoirs. Also, Stress Corrosion Cracking at low H2S/low temp/high acidity (pH<3.5) was tested by Cyclic Slow Strain Rate.
