Details the proper methods to assess, prevent, and reduce corrosion
in the oil industry using today's most advanced technologies This
book discusses upstream operations, with an emphasis on production,
and pipelines, which are closely tied to upstream operations. It
also examines protective coatings, alloy selection, chemical
treatments, and cathodic protection--the main means of corrosion
control. The strength and hardness levels of metals is also
discussed, as this affects the resistance of metals to hydrogen
embrittlement, a major concern for high-strength steels and some
other alloys. It is intended for use by personnel with limited
backgrounds in chemistry, metallurgy, and corrosion and will give
them a general understanding of how and why corrosion occurs and
the practical approaches to how the effects of corrosion can be
mitigated. Metallurgy and Corrosion Control in Oil and Gas
Production, Second Edition updates the original chapters while
including a new case studies chapter. Beginning with an
introduction to oilfield metallurgy and corrosion control, the book
provides in-depth coverage of the field with chapters on: chemistry
of corrosion; corrosive environments; materials; forms of
corrosion; corrosion control; inspection, monitoring, and testing;
and oilfield equipment. Covers all aspects of upstream oil and gas
production from downhole drilling to pipelines and tanker terminal
operations Offers an introduction to corrosion for entry-level
corrosion control specialists Contains detailed photographs to
illustrate descriptions in the text Metallurgy and Corrosion
Control in Oil and Gas Production, Second Edition is an excellent
book for engineers and related professionals in the oil and gas
production industries. It will also be an asset to the entry-level
corrosion control professional who may have a theoretical
background in metallurgy, chemistry, or a related field, but who
needs to understand the practical limitations of large-scale
industrial operations associated with oil and gas production.
