Assessment Of Precorrosion Methods For Inhibitor Testing Under Sour Conditions

Product Number: 51322-17903-SG

Author: Attila Palencsár, Rolf Nyborg

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Development of new oil and gas fields is likely to involve sour reserves to an increasing degree. Sour
production often brings about difficulties in terms of asset integrity, related particularly to corrosion
mitigation. Employing corrosion resistant alloys implies a considerable escalation in investment costs. On this basis the use of carbon steel and CO2/H2S corrosion inhibition remains a highly desirable
option.

Atmospheric Corrosion Detection And Management With AI

External corrosion on offshore O&G platforms is one of the biggest threats to asset integrity and its management is a large operational expense. Many operators now implement risk-based assessment (RBA) programs where all equipment is assessed periodically with the aim to reduce operational costs while maintaining integrity. Regulatory codes for offshore platforms in the GoM require a visual inspection of all pressure equipment and piping every five-years. In practice, this can equate to approximately 20% of equipment being inspected per year on a large-sized offshore platform (i.e., a topside weight of around 10,000 tons), with a rolling five-year inspection plan to balance the inspection workload evenly through time.

Atmospheric Plasma Coating Removal For Naval Engineering And Maintenance Applications

Product Number: 51322-18170-SG

Publication Date: 2022

A vessel docked for maintenance is a vessel out of service. For military forces, this significantly affects the readiness of that force, its ability to respond quickly and appropriately to a developing situation. It is for this reason that the United States Navy continues to search for and invest in innovations that improve maintenance turn-around times as well as innovations that keep vessels in service for longer periods of time. In large-scale construction and manufacturing industries such as shipbuilding and naval maintenance, coating removal is an essential but time-consuming process required for constructing and maintaining vessels and other structures.

Atmospheric Plasma: One-Step Precision Process To Remove Coating And Promote Chemical Adhesion

Product Number: 51322-18152-SG

Author: Pietro Ranieri, Levi Snowden, Jason Stimson, Peter Yancey

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

This paper details a precision process for removal of coatings and preparation of the metal surface underneath for optimal chemical adhesion without damaging the metal surface or the surface profile. A precision process is required for removal of coatings around corroded surfaces, potentially defective structures, or thin-walled ligaments where abrasive removal procedures will damage the substrate. In these cases, removing metal will worsen or cause a defect where replacement is expensive. A precision tool that can safely remove the coating, allow for inspection, and enhance adhesion for recoating is needed. This type of tool would enhance existing repair technologies and eliminate the immediate need for replacement.

Augmentation Of Iron Carbonate Corrosion Products Using Amino Acids In CO2 Corrosion Environments

Product Number: 51322-17754-SG

Author: Dilshad Shaikhah, Wassim Taleb, Bruce Cowe, Maalek Mohamed-Said, Anne Neville, Richard Barker

Publication Date: 2022

Oil and gas production in a CO₂ saturated environment is known to lead to corrosion due to dissolved carbonic acid. However, when the conditions are favorable, a protective FeCO₃ layer can also form which reduces the material degradation of the underlying steel by up to ten or a hundred times.1 The formation of FeCO₃ is possible via the reaction shown in equation 1.

Bayesian Modeling Coating Performance

Product Number: 51322-17612-SG

Author: James A. Ellor, Daniel Pope, Anthony Florimbio, C.Thomas Savell, Lisa A. Barker, John Repp

Publication Date: 2022

Coating degradation on Army ground systems represents a significant maintenance cost and effort. The objective of this proposed work is to develop a predictive model for coating degradation and subsequent substrate corrosion on Army ground assets. Provided with a better understanding of the root causes, steps can be taken to reduce corrosion impacts on Army materiel.

Benefits of using zinc-rich primers in offshore environments

Product Number: 51323-18932-SG

Author: Alex Yagüe Marrón

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

The nature and rate of corrosion of a metal depend upon –among other factors- the corrosivity of the environment to which it is exposed. The corrosivity category is a technical characteristic that provides a basis for the selection of materials and protective measures in different environments subject to the demands of the specific application, particularly concerning service life. Data on the corrosivity of the atmosphere is essential for the development and specification of optimized corrosion protection for manufactured products.

There is a sizable push for making more sustainable, renewable, and environmentally friendly fuels. One such example is the recent emphasis on manufacturing biofuels in the form of biodiesel or bio-oil. While ethanol is also considered a biofuel and likely the most widely used it will not be a focus of this discussion.

Biocide Storage Tank Internal Corrosion And A Mitigation Strategy – A Case Study

Product Number: 51322-17906-SG

Author: Ayman A. Alabdullatif, Rakan A. Al-Shebil, Wakeel Ahmad

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Variability of operation and practices can lead to mechanical integrity issues of equipment. A similar case was observed when an external UT survey was conducted on a biocide storage tank that showed localized areas of metal loss in the tank wall. The tank was opened for inspection and extensive internal corrosion damage was observed mainly in the form of large isolated pits. Three potential corrosion mitigation options were evaluated: upgrading the tank material from coated carbon steel to 316 stainless steel, installing a non-metallic lining, or keeping using the coated carbon steel and changing the operation practices. Each mitigation option was evaluated based integrity, feasibility, and economic factors. It was found that keeping the coated carbon steel and adjusting the operation practices can ensure the integrity of the tank while lowering the required economical investment. As such, a new operation manual was issued for the biocide storage tanks that ensured that the corrosion inducing environments are avoided.

Uncontrolled microbial growth in oilfield systems leads to costly problems such as fouling, plugging,
corrosion and souring. It also directly impacts the safe operation, economic performance and
environmental compliance in all areas of production, transportation, refining and distribution. To reduce
the damaging effect of microbial growth; the oil industry typically uses a variety of toxic organic and
inorganic chemicals (biocides) to treat affected systems

The brake system is a core component of cars, motorbikes, bikes, airplanes etc.. Its main task is to modulate the speed of moving vehicles by converting the kinetic energy into heat.^1,2 In the case of modern cars or motorbikes, the speed modulation can be performed by using the so-called disc-brake system.^1,2,3,4,5,6 This generates the braking torque by forcing two brake pads against a disc by the means of a caliper.^2,3,5,6 In the case of cars, the disc and the caliper are enclosed within each wheel and, as a consequence, can be exposed to corrosion phenomena, mostly related with atmospheric or environmental conditions.^1,3,7,8

When it comes to a bridge structure with a serviceable Organic Zinc / Epoxy / Urethane (OZ/E/U) coating system, there is no golden answer on the most cost-effective maintenance painting strategy. Depending on the severity and amount of corrosion and coating breakdown on the structure, planned maintenance surface preparations range from spot power tool cleaning and spot painting to a full SSPC-SP 10 media blast and full recoating operation.
