Hi everyone, Today let's discuss the corrosion triangle, since corrosion is a major threat for oil and gas assets. Corrosion can only take place if there is an overlap of the following three elements: Firstly, you have the material that is susceptible to corrosion, as well as a driving force or electrochemical potential acting on the material. On their own, this will not cause corrosion to take place, however if you add an electrolyte to the equation, then corrosion is possible and will take place unless prevention methods are applied. It is very important to mention that corrosion involves the flow of electrons between these components, leading to the degradation of the metal. #oilandgas #oilandgasindustry #fpso #processengineering #processengineer #petroleumengineering #assetintegrity

What would you do with the savings you’d collect from adding up to 30 years of life to your pipelines? With EnerClear Services Inc. , that could be your reality. Our epoxy coating application can help add decades onto the lifespan of your lines through uniform coating and protection against corrosion and debris. Plus, our coating reduces the need for costly corrosion inhibitors and pigging maintenance programs. #PipelinePerfection #EnerclearProcess #PipelineCleaning #PipelineCoating #OilandGas #Insitucoating #floodcoating #EnerClear #TexasOilandGas #AlbertaOilandGas #pipeline #epoxycoating #pipelinerehabilitation #pipelineprotection #oilandgas #pipelines #canadianoilandgas #canadaoilandgas #USoilandgas

The conclusion from this investigation is that the cracking mechanism for the in-service rupture and leaks is mainly hydrogen environment assisted cracking (HAC), with the hydrogen being generated by the cathodic protection. The root cause for the failures is the combination of an aged and defective coating and the cathodic protection (CP) system operated for decades at near the pipe-to-soil potential limit of −1200 mV CSE. https://lnkd.in/gGYbPZwn

The special issue: "Corrosion and Stress Corrosion Cracking in the Natural Gas and Oil Industry", 15 papers including 4 reviews: https://lnkd.in/edyVnZej Edited by Milos Djukic Andrej Atrens Mariano Iannuzzi Frank Cheng, FRSC Ram Ratnakar Eason (Yi-Sheng) Chen Wasim Muhammad Engineering Journals Elsevier Elsevier This special issue is dedicated to the problems of corrosion and hydrogen in the gas and oil industry. The corrosion of steel pipelines transporting natural gas is one of the main reasons for the decline of the pipeline's reliability and integrity. The metal loss and cracking resulting from the intensive electrochemical corrosion processes are considered a substantial hazard and can easily cause catastrophic pipeline failures, leading to substantial collateral damage. The pipelines are typically fabricated from low alloy steels and are prone to various electrochemical corrosion types. Blending hydrogen into existing natural gas pipelines and hydrogen transport is now being actively considered as part of the decarbonization strategy in Australia, Europe, and the United States; the key impediment is the possibility of hydrogen embrittlement and hydrogen-induced cracking of steel pipelines. #hydrogenembrittlement #hydrogen #materials #mechanicalengineering #oilandgas #energy #pipelines #corrosion

Spill containment for frac tanks, decon wash pads, tanker trucks, drum storage, mining operations, heavy machinery, and other large equipment. If you work in an industry that deals with oil, chemicals, or other hazardous materials, you’ll likely need proper spill containment solutions. Spills (of any kind) can disrupt your business, cause lengthy delays, and result in hefty fines by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Therefore, having the proper spill control supplies on hand is essential to prevent these situations from becoming a more significant problem. #fluidsolutions #pumpsolutions #powerhvac #generator #rentalsolutions #rentalequipment https://lnkd.in/ggn6ENX3

Corrosion is a persistent and costly challenge for many sectors, especially those exposed to harsh environments. 🌊 Fortunately, cathodic protection offers an efficient solution. Research shows that using this method can reduce corrosion-related costs by as much as 60%! Why take the risk of costly repairs and equipment failures when you can protect your infrastructure proactively? With the right protection in place, your pipelines, rigs, and offshore platforms can operate longer, with less downtime and fewer maintenance expenses. At Metec, we help clients across the offshore energy and marine sectors keep their assets safe from corrosion. Our tailored cathodic protection systems ensure that your infrastructure stays secure, even in the toughest conditions. #OilandGas #CathodicProtection #Marine
