Nickel-based alloys cover a wide range of oil and gas applications. Alloy EP718 is used as an analogue of alloy 718. The corrosion resistance of EP718 has been determined in severe environmental conditions of NACE level VI over 3 months (175°С, PCO2 = 3.5 MPa, PH2S = 3.5 MPa, pH 3.5, 20% NaCl). The effects of heat treatment on the corrosion rate were studied. The results indicate that the corrosion rate of EP718 in a simulated environment is less than 0.01 mm per year. Stress corrosion cracking could be observed in low quality production and incorrect heat treatment.

This paper, studied the effect of heat treatment and anodization on corrosion resistance of aluminum alloy 7075 (AA7075), with a view to improving its corrosion resistance. Microstructure and micro hardness of the anodic film of the samples were studied with the aid of optical metallurgical microscope and automated micro hardness testing machine. Linear polarization methods were used to assess the corrosion behaviour of the alloy in 0.5M HCl. The microstructure of the annealed sample showed formation of dendrites while precipitation hardened samples in palm kernel oil and SAE 40 engine oil showed precipitates of MgZn2. The SEMS result showed pores and micro cracks on the surfaces of the anodized samples, with the as cast and anodized sample in sulfuric acid exhibiting most compact with few pores. The as cast and sulfuric acid anodized sample shows highest micro hardness value of 205.33 HV, while the least value of 150.67 HV was recorded in sample precipitation hardened in SAE 40 engine oil and anodized in sulfuric acid. Analysis of the potentiodynamic polarization data and curves showed a linear relationship (decrease in icorr, decreases the corrosion rate) between current density and the corrosion rate in all the samples. Higher polarization resistance of 15.093 Ω/cm2 was recorded by the as cast and Sulfuric acid (SA) anodized sample while the precipitation treated in SAE 40 engine oil plus SA anodized sample recorded lowest polarization resistance of 5.2311 Ω/cm2. Heat treatment alone improves corrosion resistance of AA 7075 in 0.5 M HCl solution but heat treatment plus SA anodization does not improve corrosion resistance in the same environment.

Nickel Based Alloy

With the application upgrade of alloy 718 in the marine oil exploitation, higher corrosion resistance demands has been presented for structure design and reasonable material application of drilling and production equipments; thus there is an urgent need to understand influences of grain size on corrosion behavior of such alloy in sea water environment. In this experiment, different solution treatments are applied to nickel-based alloy 718. As a result, specimens with grain size varied from ASTM No. 9 to No. 3.5 grades. The influences of grain size on the electrochemical behaviors in simulated sea water (3.5% sodium chloride solution) are investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and polarization curves. Alloy 718 shows good corrosion resistance in this electrolyte solution, however, grain size still has an effect on its electrochemical corrosion behaviors to a certain extent. With the time going, testing results show that coarse-grained alloys with larger grain size have higher impedance values and smaller corrosion current densities, indicating a better corrosion resistance than fine-grained specimens. However, when the grain size increases further, the corrosivity resistant nature of alloy 718 would decline. Testing results show that specimen with size of ASTM No. 5 has the best corrosion resistance.

The influences of Zn content and heat treatment on microstructure and corrosion behavior of Mg-xZn (x=1, 3, 5 and 7 wt.%) alloys were studied. (α-Mg + MgZn) eutectic cells and Zn-segregated regions were formed in the as-cast alloys. The Zn-rich phases acted as micro-cathodes in galvanic corrosion. Volume fraction of the Zn-rich phases increased with Zn content of the as-cast alloys, leading to a decrease in corrosion resistance. The corrosion rate of the as-cast alloys increased by 4 times with an increase of the volume fraction of eutectic cell from 0.07 vol.% of Mg-1Zn alloy to 2.18 vol.% of Mg-5Zn alloy. The corrosion rate of Mg-7Zn alloy with 2.87 vol% eutectic cells was 2 times higher than that of Mg-5Zn alloy. The Zn-rich phases dissolved by the T4 treatment and only the T4-treated Mg-7Zn alloy obviously showed eutectic cells of 1.73 vol.%. The polarization resistance (Rp) of the T4-treated Mg-1, 3 and 5Zn alloys was 2-10 times higher than that of the as-cast alloys. The T4-treated Mg-7Zn showed similar Rp to the as-cast Mg-5Zn alloy. Consequently, the volume fraction of Zn-rich phases dominated the corrosion resistance of Mg-xZn alloys.

Corrosion Properties

The corrosion characteristics and corrosion mechanism of the extruded ZK80 alloy with different states soaking in 3.5% NaCl solution at room temperature were analyzed via OM, SEM, EDS, XRD and static weightlessness method and other experimental analysis methods. The results show that when the aging temperature is constant, and the corrosion rate decreases with the lengthen of aging time, while when the corrosion time is constant, the corrosion rate increases with the increase in aging time. Appropriate aging treatment not only refines the grain of the alloy, but also precipitates the Mg–Zn phase which can effectively prevent the corrosion process and improve the anti-corrosion properties of the alloy. The main corrosion characteristics of the alloy are filamentary corrosion and pitting corrosion.

AbstractThe paper presents the results of corrosion resistance of heat treated aluminized steel strips. Products coated by Al-10Si alloy are used among others in a manufacturing process of welded pipes as the elements of the car exhaust systems, working in high temperatures and different environments (eg. wet, salty). The strips and tubes high performance requirements are applied to stability, thickness and roughness of Al-Si coating, adhesion and corrosion resistance. Tubes working in elements of exhaust systems in a wide range of temperatures are exposed to the effects of many aggressive factors, such as salty snow mud. It was therefore decided to carry out research on the impact of corrosion on the environmental influence on heat treated aluminized steel strips. The heat treatment was carried out temperatures in the range 250-700°C for 30, 180, 1440 minutes. Then the coatings was subjected to cyclic impact of snow mud. Total duration of treatment was 12 months and it was divided into three stages of four months and at the end of each stage was made the assessment of factor of corrosion. The results are presented in the form of macroscopic, microscopic (using a scanning electron microscope) observations and the degree and type of rusty coating.

Wellbore integrity management for oil and gas wells plays a vital role throughout the typical lifespan of a well. Downhole casing leaks in oil- and gas-producing wells significantly affect their shallow water horizon, the environment, and fresh water resources. Additionally, downhole casing leaks may cause seepage of toxic gases to fresh water zones and the surface, through the casing annuli. Forecasting of such leaks and proactive measures of prevention will help eliminate their consequences and, in turn, better protect the environment. The objective of this study is to formulate an effective, robust, and accurate model for predicting the corrosion rate of metal casing string using artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. The input parameters used to train AI models include casing leaks, the percentage of metal loss, casing age, and average remaining barrier ratio (ARBR). The target parameter is the corrosion rate of the metal casing string. The dataset from which the AI models were trained was comprised of 250 data points collected from 218 wells in a giant carbonate reservoir that covered a wide range of practically reasonable values. Two AI tools were used: artificial neural networks (ANNs) and adaptive network-based fuzzy inference systems (ANFISs). A prediction comparison was made between these two tools. Based on the minimum average absolute percentage error (AAPE) and the highest coefficient of determination (R2) between the measured and predicted corrosion rate values, the ANN model proposed here was determined to be best for predicting the corrosion rate. An ANN-based empirical model is also presented in this study. The proposed model is based on the associated weights and biases. After evaluating the new ANN equation using an unseen validation dataset, it was concluded that the ANN equation was able to make predictions with a significantly lower AAPE and higher R2. Use of the proposed new equation is very cost-effective in terms of reducing the number of sequential surveys and experiments conducted. The proposed equation can be utilized without an AI engine. The developed model and empirical correlation are very promising and can serve as a handy tool for corrosion engineers seeking to determine the corrosion rate without training an AI model.
