Challenges in evaluating Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) in the oil and gas industry
In the oil and gas industry, operational safety and efficiency are critical to ensuring a constant flow of hydrocarbons through the supply chain. However, Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI), a hidden threat, represents one of the most critical challenges in terms of inspection, as it directly impacts the integrity of assets.
Stress Corrosion Cracking: Mechanism, control and practical cases
Inspenet, October 17, 2023.
Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) is dangerous because it can destroy a component at stress levels below the tensile strength of an alloy. This phenomenon manifests itself under two main conditions: high pH SCC and almost neutral SCC.
