... the use of any resources for as long as possible, thus maximizing their intended value. When considering that corrosion remains one of the main causal factors compromising reliability and service life of industrial assets, ⁴ corrosion management will continue to play a considerable role under...

... INTO ACCOUNT THE DEPLETION PROBLEM Promising innovative approaches to corrosion mitigation based on renewable or recyclable materials and how they can help with the management of nonrenewable mineral resources to provide new avenues to cope with the worldwide corrosion problem are summarized. Innovative...

... preserving the ability for future generations to meet their own needs.” ¹ When considering materials sustainability, the focus should be on the production of intergenerational capacity to sustainably manage materials obtained from renewable (in the case of biomass) or nonrenewable...

... equipment can be manufactured using corrosion-proof materials (also known as “unobtainium”), consideration of corrosion is required. When corrosion is addressed from conception to abandonment, or over the equipment lifecycle, it is called “corrosion management.” As mentioned in previous chapters, corrosion...

...Background. The inherent deficiencies associated with the Classical Integrity Management View and its failure to efficiently and successfully control corrosion in the U.K.'s offshore oil and gas industry encouraged various organizations and individuals to try to come up with an enhanced and more...

...Background. The non-CE-based integrity management measures play a crucial role in both maintaining and enhancing an asset integrity management system (AIMS) in general, and a corrosion management system in particular. This explains why they have been assigned an equal position, or rank, as the CE...

...Background. Chapter 4 was wholly dedicated to 12 non-CE-based integrity management measures better known as the Management Requirements. Based on numerous field experiences, asset integrity management system (AIMS) audits, asset visits, and asset data analysis, these 12 requirements were...

...Background. Proper and timely implementation of the MCMM will bring about numerous benefits. Some benefits can be virtually acquired at no or very little extra costs and resources. This fact by itself should be considered as one of the greatest advantages of the corrosion management implementation...

...Background. The most prevalent issue or shortcoming observed across the oil and gas industry has been not implementing the corrosion management process itself; in particular, throughout an asset's post-commissioning or operations phase. The main culprit behind such shortcoming...

...Background. As previously discussed in Section 3.13 , any corrosion management implementation process is composed of these three phases: The Pre-Implementation Phase The Implementation Phase The Post-Implementation Phase This chapter exclusively discusses the Implementation Phase...

...Corrosion Management Case Studies. Introduction. This appendix contains case studies that further illustrate how the corrosion management process and applications can be used to Better identify and determine (both the CE-based and the non-CE-based) shortcomings that often cause the pertinent...

...Corrosion Management Exercises. Introduction. The following exercises are intended to present the reader with an opportunity to test their corrosion management knowledge and use that knowledge in a more practical and effective manner. The associated answers are provided at the end of the exercise...

... on the unique operating conditions for each operating location. Following are two partial lists related to controlling corrosion and managing the accumulation of black powder within crude oil and natural gas production, processing, and transportation to their customers through a pipeline network. The first list...

.... scale corrosion risk evaluation flow assurance chemical management shale gas field INTRODUCTION. The term “flow assurance” in general encompasses a variety of issues that might impede or restrict flow, which are additional to “normal” constraints such as reservoir conditions, reservoir decline...

... programs to prevent deposition (both fouling and scaling) and corrosion. This paper presents approaches to manage CWSs operating under high stressed conditions attributable to make up water contaminants (e.g., high calcium, temperature, aluminum). Technologies for preventing deposition in cooling systems...

... which materials will withstand certain corrosive conditions, at least for a finite period of time. Managing corrosion as an integrity threat to pipelines is another matter. The science and practice of managing corrosion is still evolving. There are numerous examples of corrosion failures that seemingly...
