Abstract:In oil and gas fields high levels of hydrogen sulphide, carbon dioxide, chloride and sulphur at high pressures and high temperatures require material fine tuning in terms of chemical composition, microstructure and mechanical properties to assure required stress corrosion cracking resistance. 718 alloy is applied in various components operating in severe environments. Pilot scale production has been realised, with a narrow control of Nb content (4.8-5.2 mass%) to investigate chemical composition effect on mate… Show more
