Establishing a Corrosion Atlas for Qatar Petroleum-Phase 3.
This research project is an extension to Corrosion Atlas Project which was part of the collaboration agreement “Establishing a Corrosion Atlas for Qatar Petroleum – Phase II Chloride Stress Corrosion Cracking (CSCC)” between College of the North Atlantic-Qatar (CNAQ) and Qatar Petroleum”. The objective of the project is to examine the resistance of different corrosion resistant materials to chloride stress corrosion cracking (CSCC). In this project, corroded samples that were exposed to different environmental condition in QP sites will be collected, examined, tested, and corrosion severity will be evaluated. Exposed specimens of 321, 316 L, lean duplex stainless steel, 904 L, 25% Cr alloy, and alloy 825 will be evaluated for time of failure as these alloys were already exposed to the corrosive environment at the QP sites.
