This post describes the Gorgon and Jansz field developments, two of the most complex engineering endeavors in offshore oil and gas history.
Use of electrochemical techniques to determine localized corrosion resistance of 25% Cr Super Duplex Stainless Steels: effect of tungsten — Presentation
Does tungsten in super duplex stainless steel improve localized corrosion resistance?
In this presentation, the pitting and crevice corrosion resistance of super duplex stainless steels with different tungsten contents was analyzed using various electrochemical techniques.
The work was presented at the 16th Nordic Corrosion Conference.
Pre-exposure embrittlement and stress corrosion cracking of magnesium alloys in chloride solutions — Presentation
Do magnesium alloys suffer environmentally assisted cracking?
In this work, presented at CORROSION 2014, we investigated the hydrogen embrittlement and stress corrosion cracking of magnesium alloy AZ31B in chloride solutions.
High strength low alloy steels and hydrogen – Presentation
How can we prevent cracking of high strength low alloy steels when exposed to hydrogen? Take a look at my presentation at the 2015 Robust Materialvalg i Oljeindustrien conference.
In Memoriam Professor Zuzanna (Susan) Szklarska-Śmiałowska (1925 to 2015)
Professor Susan Smialowska died at her home in Zalesie (Poland) on Thursday 05-March–2015. She was 89 years old. On 11-March–2015, she was laid to rest in Warsaw next to her husband Michal Smialowski. (continue reading)
Corrosion behavior of buried pipeline in presence of AC stray current in a controlled environment (Paper no. C2015-5588)
This blog entry provides the link to download our final NACE CORROSION 2015 publication on corrosion of carbon steel in the presence of alternate currents (AC). Elmira Ghanbari presents a model, based on fundamental corrosion principles, which estimates the effect of an applied AC interference on Faradaic processes leading to corrosion.
