NEW LINE PIPE RESISTS PREFERENTIAL CORROSION AT WELDS

Line pipe with preferential corrosion resistance in the welded joint in CO2-containing gas and oil environments has been produced and delivered for use in the North Sea. NKK Corporation, Tokyo, developed the pipe by taking into consideration the mechanism of preferential corrosion. The chemistry was optimized to prevent preferential corrosion of both heat-affected zone (HAZ) and weld metal. The project also developed girth-welding consumables for the pipe.
