downhole equipments

Using the right material is extremely important in the oil and gas industry to withstand high pressure, temperature, and environments that are incredibly corrosive. The alloys of nickel are stronger than the pure nickel that is manufactured commercially. Not only are these alloys known to combat different types of corrosion, are cost-effective and versatile. When … Continue reading Monel 400- A significant material for the Oil And Gas Industry

Inconel alloy 718 was discovered in 1980s for downhole apparatus.  The need for meeting high pressure gas wells demands a high strength alloy with excellent corrosion resistance to gas containing high carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide for completion apparatus. The superalloys like Hastelloy C-276 were available and provided outstanding corrosion resistance to the anticipated fluids. … Continue reading Inconel Alloy 718 for oil and gas industry
