The microstructure and mechanical properties of a new corrosion-resistant alloy GH945 with high strength for oil and gas production were studied in this paper. The results showed that the main precipitations of GH945 alloy after solution heat treatment and two-stage age hardening treatment were γ′ and γ′′ phase, MC-type carbide, σ phase and M23C6-type carbide. The increase of primary aging temperature not only promoted the precipitation of σ phase and film of continuous M23C6 carbide on the grain boundary, but also led to the coarsening of γ′ and γ′′ phase, which resulted in the decrease of yield strength and impact toughness. Alloy with high Nb content had high strength but low impact toughness. The following heat treatment was preferably used to obtain the combination of high strength and excellent ductility and toughness for GH945 alloy: 1010 °C/70 min, WQ+ 735 °C/9 h + FC to 615 °C/18 h, AC.

As an economical alternative to solid corrosion resistant alloy (CRA) and clad pipes, mechanically lined or sleeved CRA pipes are proven to be effective in the transport of corrosive fluids in oil and gas industry. A major issue with these pipes is that pressure drop or fluctuations may cause buckling of the liner, resulting in irreparable and costly damage. This issue should be resolved in order to fully implement this type of pipes in oil and gas industry. In this study, post-buckling analysis of liner pipe encased in carbon steel outer pipe is carried out following the hydraulic expansion manufacturing process. Commercially available abaqus finite element software is employed. The proposed model is partly verified with an analytical solution and other numerical results under the condition of no residual contact pressure. Results of the parametric study reveal that increasing the residual contact pressure and decreasing the magnitude of geometric imperfection can both contribute to enhancing the buckling resistance.

Duplex stainless steels were first manufactured early in the 20th century, but it was the invention of argon oxygen decarburization melting and the addition of nitrogen that made the alloys stronger, more weldable, and more corrosion resistant. Today, there is a family of duplex stainless steels covering a range of compositions and properties, but they all share high strength and good corrosion resistance, especially to stress corrosion cracking, compared with similar austenitic stainless steels. This paper briefly reviews the range of modern duplex stainless steels and why they are widely used in many industries. They are the workhorse corrosion-resistant alloy in the oil and gas industry. In this paper, their use in three industries common in Australia and New Zealand is reviewed: oil and gas, mineral processing, and desalination. The corrosion resistance in the relevant fluids is reviewed and some case histories highlight both successes and potential problems with duplex alloys in these industries.
