high strength

The strength level in age hardened materials is becoming widely important, specifically for offshore applications that are exploiting high pressure deep well reserves, where weight factors can significantly affect the economic feasibility of the project. The material selection for down hole and wellhead equipment like hangers, sub surface safety valves, pumps etc should be made … Continue reading Inconel alloys for application in offshore plant conditions for economical service

Valves are made in different ways considering material and design depending on specific application area. An essential factor for the material selection is the condition in which it is used. When designing or choosing a valve there are several factors that are essential to be considered. What is needed from the valve is totally based … Continue reading Considerable performance factors while choosing a Valve Material

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
