With the passage of time, oil and gas exploration will be performed in deep wells specifically in deepwater. Unlike to shallow wells, the deep wells demand durable materials. The well conditions include hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, chlorides and sulfur and also the temperatures go up to 260oC and pressure 25000 psi.  Due to this, it … Continue reading Materials for deep well, gas and water exploration applications

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 625 is a nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy that is popular for its high strength, good fabricability and excellent corrosion resistance. Its outstanding corrosion resistance properties increase the alloy’s demand in a wide range of applications that involve high temperature and corrosive environments. High alloy content of Inconel 625 enables it to withstand diverse severely corrosive conditions. … Continue reading Inconel 625- A versatile corrosion resistant material for chemical plants

Nickel-Chromium-Molybdneum alloys were selected as suitable materials for nuclear waste containers as they provide outstanding resistance to localized corrosion in conditions that may occur at the permanent repository site. It was crucial to determine if prolong exposure to low temperatures would be harmful to the resistance property of Hastelloy C22 , C4 and C276 alloys … Continue reading Which alloy is the best fit for nuclear waste containers
