Annual cost of corrosion in the production & manufacturing
category
Most facility managers, engineers, maintenance and construction personnel now know that corrosion under insulation
(CUI) exists and left to its own devices, can cause serious problems and even catastrophic consequences.
It is also widely known that the results of CUI are costly. How costly? That is harder to define. Most studies on the topic
involve all forms of corrosion and their associated costs without providing the individual cost of corrosion related to
insulation.
What is clear, however, is that the cost of corrosion in the World continues to increase. A study completed in 2011 by a
research team of corrosion specialists enlisted by Congress titled, "Corrosion Costs and Preventative Strategies in the
World" reported the direct cost of corrosion to be $276 billion per year, with that number potentially doubling when indirect
costs are also considered.
Additional factors encourage CUI: the environment, insulation design and specifications, installation craftsmanship and
maintenance. Let's examine what can be done to reduce the risks.
Program for Prevention of CUI at a RefinerySharon Hart
The document outlines a program to minimize occurrences and severity of corrosion under insulation (CUI) at an oil refinery. It identifies 12 common problems that can lead to CUI and recommends solutions.

This document summarizes literature on in-service welding of gas lines. It discusses the risks of burn-through and heat-affected zone cracking when welding live gas lines. It reviews guidelines developed by Battelle Laboratories in the 1970s-80s that used thermal modeling and experimental testing to determine safe welding parameters to minimize these risks. These guidelines, published in tables and graphs, are still used today for qualifying in-service welding procedures. The document also discusses how pipe material properties, thickness, internal pressure, and flow rate must all be considered to safely conduct in-service welds.
This document provides a review of corrosion under insulation (CUI), discussing key factors and mechanisms. It summarizes that CUI occurs via a three step process: 1) water ingress, 2) water accumulation under insulation, and 3) dissolution of corrosive species. Five important factors for CUI are discussed: insulation material, coating material, substrate material, atmosphere, and design. Carbon steel is susceptible to general and localized corrosion from CUI, while stainless steel risks pitting and stress corrosion cracking. Proper coating and design can prevent the water accumulation and corrosion processes that cause CUI.

Growth, structure, and morphology of TiO2 films deposited by molecular beam e...Oleg Maksimov
The document summarizes research on growing TiO2 thin films using molecular beam epitaxy with an ozone source. Key findings:
1) TiO2 films grown on SrTiO3, LSAT, and LaAlO3 substrates at 750°C formed the anatase crystal structure and were oriented in the (001) direction.
2) Films on LaAlO3 exhibited the best surface morphology and crystallinity due to a close lattice match with anatase.
3) Higher ozone fluxes during growth resulted in smoother film surfaces, as observed by RHEED and AFM. However, films grown at higher temperatures with RHEED indicating smoothness actually contained large inclusions.

Blade angles in Francis turbine
ChatGPT
The blade angles in a Francis turbine are crucial for efficient energy conversion. There are two primary angles:
Guide vane angle: Also known as the wicket gate angle, it controls the flow of water entering the turbine. Adjusting this angle regulates the amount of water flow, optimizing turbine performance under different operating conditions.
Runner blade angle: These angles determine how efficiently the turbine extracts energy from the water flow. The runner blade angle affects the interaction between the water and the turbine blades, influencing both the turbine's power output and its efficiency.
Both angles are carefully designed and optimized to maximize the turbine's efficiency across its operating range, balancing factors such as flow velocity, pressure distribution, and hydraulic losses.

Francis turbine
ChatGPT
The Francis turbine is a type of water turbine used for generating electricity in hydroelectric power plants. It's a reaction turbine, meaning it operates by both impulse and reaction forces.
Here's how it works:
Water enters the turbine through the spiral casing and flows into the runner.
The runner consists of a series of curved blades that are shaped to efficiently capture the kinetic energy of the flowing water.
As the water flows over the curved blades, it changes direction and creates a reaction force that causes the runner to rotate.
The rotating runner is connected to a shaft, which is in turn connected to an electric generator.
As the runner rotates, it drives the generator, producing electricity.

Weld Purging ~ Corrosion Problems in Stainless Steel by WeldingRon Sewell
Abstract
Corrosion is not uncommon in stainless steels, despite their name. Salt water environments in particular can give rise to corrosion and this is even noticeable at domestic level where cutlery discolours in mild salt solutions during dishwashing cycles. Loss of corrosion resistance during welding takes place when oxygen levels in shield and purge gases are high enough to deplete the chromium content.
The document describes the Vector SPO® Compact Flange, a compact flange sealing technology that provides significant weight and space savings over conventional flanges while ensuring leak-free sealing of critical mechanical joints. It weighs 70-80% less than a conventional flange and has been proven through extensive testing to maintain sealing integrity equally to pipe welds. The compact flange offers benefits such as reduced equipment footprint, prevention of corrosion, superior sealing ability, and maintenance-free operation. It has been widely used in oil and gas installations globally since 1989.
AWS Schäfer has over 50 years of experience manufacturing pipe forming machines. Their induction bending machines can bend pipe with radii from 1.5 times the pipe diameter to 40 diameters, and can preserve straight sections before, after, and between bends. This results in high quality bends with minimal wall thinning and fewer welds. Their hydroforming machines can produce tees from pipe with diameters from 57mm to 1020mm out of various steel grades. Cladding machines can apply a corrosion-resistant inner layer to carbon steel pipe for uses like oil and gas drilling where corrosion is a concern. This extends the lifetime of pipes 10 times compared to carbon steel.
The document discusses a solution developed to address repeated failures of diaphragm welds in refinery heat exchangers. The solution involved eliminating the diaphragm plate and replacing it with a double-tapered, self-energizing metal pressure seal. Finite element analysis validated that the seal would keep components in an elastic state with stresses below code limits. The retrofit successfully eliminated cracking as the root cause of leaks, increasing equipment reliability while reducing downtime and costs during maintenance.

This document provides an overview of various approaches for protecting steel from corrosion. It discusses design techniques, cathodic protection, chemical inhibition, conversion coatings, coating systems, improving steel material properties, and corrosion monitoring. The best approach involves a practicable painting or organic coating system that provides protection tailored to the environment. While methods have improved corrosion resistance, more effective and economical solutions are still needed for all environments.
The document compares seamless and seam welded tubes of Alloy 825 and super-duplex stainless steel for use in sub-surface safety valve control lines. Microscopy analysis revealed welding defects like undercuts and microcracks along the fusion line of the welded tubes that were not present in the seamless tubes. Surface roughness was higher on the inner surface of welded tubes near the weld line. Chromium nitride precipitates were observed on the outer surface of welded Alloy 825 tubes that could impact corrosion resistance. The study concludes seamless tubes are preferable to welded tubes for safety valve control lines due to the risks posed by welding defects.

The Issue: Pipework Corrosion
Crevice corrosion formed under a regular plastic clamp
Crevice corrosion formed under a regular plastic clamp
Instrumentation pipework made of stainless steel
Stainless Steel Pipework
Stainless steel pipework on oil and gas platform and
processing plants (that are located offshore and up to 50 km
inland) is used over a wide range of temperature, flow and
pressure conditions, e.g. for process instrumentation and
sensing, as well as for chemical inhibition, hydraulic or
utility lines.
The typical tubing material selected for these particular
applications is AISI 316 stainless steel, although in more
recent times other tube materials have been utilized to try and
counteract the offshore corrosion issue.
In all major offshore oil and gas regions – including the Gulf of
Mexico, the North Sea, the Gulf of Guinea and the China Sea –
corrosion of AISI 316 stainless steel pipework can be
observed, and has been a researched and well documented
problem as well as a costly and time consuming issue with
regard to maintenance processes for many years.
Pitting Corrosion
One of the most prevalent forms of localised corrosion
is pitting corrosion: Under certain specific conditions
– particularly involving chlorides (such as sodium chloride in
seawater) and exacerbated by elevated temperatures – small
pits can form in a stainless steel surface.
Dependent upon both the environment and the stainless steel
itself, these pits may continue to grow and eventually lead to
perforation of tubing walls and leaks, while the majority of the
surface may still be totally unaffected.
Pitting corrosion is often quite easy to recognise: small
individual pits and – in later stages – sometimes deeper and
connected pits can be observed by visual inspection with the
unaided eye.
Crevice Corrosion
Another dominant type is crevice corrosion, which is a lot
more difficult to observe: It usually tends to occur in shielded
areas such as crevices, formed under gaskets, washers,
fastener heads, insulating material, surface deposits,
disbonded coatings, threads and lap joints.
Pipe clamps made of plastic in particular have also been prone
to inducing crevice corrosion in the past, because the plastic
deforms around the tubing and creates even tighter crevices.
Crevice corrosion is always initiated by changes in the local
chemistry within the shielded area, usually associated with
a stagnant solution on the micro-environmental level:
Trapped seawater becomes stagnant
Depletion of inhibitor and oxygen
A shift to acid conditions
Build-up of aggressive ion species
(such as sodium chloride in seawater)
Accelerated corrosion process
Crevice corrosion can have serious and adverse consequen-
ces eventually leading to perforation of tubing walls and the
escape of highly flammable and hazardous fluids and
chemicals.
Material Selection
Hence, the selection of proper materials and the use of robust
design and safe construction practices are mandatory, even
if crevices are sometimes difficult or even impossible to avoid
in tubing installations when using regular types of tubing
supports and clamps.
This is where STAUFF ACT Clamps come into play ...
Corrosion Facts
Corrosion in general is a naturally occurring phenomenon
commonly defined as the deterioration of a substance
(usuallyametal)oritspropertiesbecauseofareactionwithits
environment. Like other natural hazards, corrosion can cause
not only expensive but also dangerous damage to almost
everything from automobiles, home appliances and drinking
water systems to pipelines, bridges and public buildings.
Figures provided by the U.S. National Climatic Data Center
underline that major weather related disasters the U.S.
incurred total losses of averaging USD 17 billion annually
(1980 – 2001). According to U.S. corrosion studies, the
estimated direct cost of metallic corrosion in general was
USD 276 billion on an annual basis in 1998. This represented
3,1% of the U.S. Gross Domestic Product.
Direct corrosion costs associated with the domestic oil and
gas production activities in the U.S. were determined to
be about USD 1,4 billion annually, with USD 0,6 billion
attributed to surface piping and facility costs, USD 0,5 billion
to downhole tubing, and USD 0,3 billion to capital expendi-
tures related to corrosion.
The U.S. refineries represent approximately 23% of the
world’s petroleum production in 1996 supplying more than
18 million barrels of refined petroleum products per day,
with a total corrosion related direct cost of USD 3,7 billion.
Maintenance expenses make up USD 1,8 billion of this total,
vessel expenses are USD 1,4 billion and fouling costs are
approximately USD 0,5 billion annually.

Development
Throughout their development, STAUFF ACT Clamps
have been subject to stringent testing at the STAUFF
in-house laboratories located in Werdohl, Germany.
In order to ensure credibility of the product, the
development process has also involved independent
testing.
To achieve this, the services of the Centre for Corrosion
Technology at Sheffield Hallam University’s Materials and
Engineering Research Institute have been utilized, applying
advanced techniques with equipment such as high resolution
surface metrology and form measurement systems.
In addition to that, independent field test samples
– located on an oil rig in the Dutch sector of the
North Sea – have also been assessed at the
Sheffield Hallam University facilities.
Both independent tests have recorded positive
results in favour of the anti-corrosion attributes of
the STAUFF ACT Clamp. Fully detailed test reports
are available upon request.
Conformity
Using flame-retardant PPV0 plastic material for the clamp
body and ACE anti-corrosion elastomer material for the rubber
strips, STAUFF ACT Clamps have been constructed
in compliance with section 7.3 (Tubing Installation) of the
Norwegian offshore standard Norsok Z-010 (Revision 3,
published in October 2000). They also comply with Norsok I-001
(Revision 4, published in January 2010), API RP 552 and NACE
SP 0108-2008 (section 13).
In a controlled laboratory environment, continous hot salt
spray tests according to ASTM B117 have been applied
for periods of 2000 hours to various clamp configurations
holding AISI 316 stainless steel tubing.
The Norsok Organisation
Norsok is a Norwegian industry initiative to add value, reduce
cost and lead time and remove unnecessary activities in
offshore field developments and operations.
The Norsok standards are developed by the Norwegian
petroleum industry and are jointly issued by the Norwegian
Oil Industry Association (OLF) and the Federation of Norwe-
gian Engineering Industries (TBL). They are administered by
the Norwegian Technology Standards Institution (NTS).
The purpose of the Norsok industry standards is to replace
the individual oil company specifications for use in existing
and future petroleum industry developments, subject to the
individual company’s review and application.
The Norsok standard Z-010 (Revision 3) published in October
2000 (Section 7.3: Tubing Installation) states the following:
"Tubing clamps shall be made of non-corrosive
material, stainless steel AISI 316 and/or flame retardant
plastic. Galvanic corrosion between tubing and tubing
support system shall be avoided.
The tubing clamp shall, when installed, not allow for water /
seawater to be accumulated between tubing and tubing
clamp on wall, this is to avoid crevice corrosion."

Spacing and Positioning of STAUFF Clamps
In order to conform with the Norwegian offshore standard Norsok Z-010, correct spacing
of pipe and tube clamps has to be observed. The following recommendations are made:
Please also note the following information on the
installation of STAUFF Clamps next to pipe bends,
tube fittings and/or valves:
Pipe bends should be supported by STAUFF Clamps
positioned as close to the bends as possible.
If tube fittings and/or valves are incorporated in the
pipeline system, it is recommended that support is
provided by STAUFF Clamps located directly next to
these components to protect them from vibrations.
Spacing
[...] Instrument tubing shall be supported to field trays or cable ladders for tubing sizes
less than 16 mm outside diameter. Cable tray, ladder or equal to be used for larger sizes
when mechanical protection is required. [...]
Tubing to be fastened to self drained tubing clamps with span max every 60x tubing
diameter (in millimeters). Tubing sizes above 25 mm (.98 in) outside diameter shall as a
minimum have support every 1500 mm (4.92 ft). [...]

Spacing and Positioning of STAUFF Clamps
In order to conform with the Norwegian offshore standard Norsok Z-010, correct spacing
of pipe and tube clamps has to be observed. The following recommendations are made:
Please also note the following information on the
installation of STAUFF Clamps next to pipe bends,
tube fittings and/or valves:
Pipe bends should be supported by STAUFF Clamps
positioned as close to the bends as possible.
If tube fittings and/or valves are incorporated in the
pipeline system, it is recommended that support is
provided by STAUFF Clamps located directly next to
these components to protect them from vibrations.
Spacing
[...] Instrument tubing shall be supported to field trays or cable ladders for tubing sizes
less than 16 mm outside diameter. Cable tray, ladder or equal to be used for larger sizes
when mechanical protection is required. [...]
Tubing to be fastened to self drained tubing clamps with span max every 60x tubing
diameter (in millimeters). Tubing sizes above 25 mm (.98 in) outside diameter shall as a
minimum have support every 1500 mm (4.92 ft). [...]
ቤ Mounting & Fitting Combination
Please select the mounting and fitting combination and add
the corresponding Code to position ቤ of the order code
for your clamp assembly.
