Introduction

Sulfide stress cracking and stress corrosion cracking are dangerous failure forms in the production of hydrogen sulfide oil and gas. Equipment materials may crack rapidly and unpredictably, causing great loss of life and property. The purpose of the "Materials for use in hydrogen sulfide environments in oil and gas production in the gas industry" is to standardize the crack-resistant materials used in hydrogen sulfide environments in oil and gas production. The requirements for material evaluation, selection and application were formulated with reference to ISO 15156 and other relevant domestic and foreign standards, and the recent acidic oil and gas The research results of field engineering application practice experience and technical standards are planned to be composed of three parts. --- Part 1.General principles for selecting crack-resistant materials. The purpose is to establish general principles for service environment definition, material evaluation and selection. in principle. --- Part 2.Cracking resistant carbon steel, low alloy steel and cast iron. The purpose is to establish the selection, assessment and Requirements for use, and requirements for use of cast iron. --- Part 3.Cracking resistant corrosion resistant alloys and other alloys. The purpose is to establish the selection, evaluation and Usage requirements include austenitic stainless steel, martensitic stainless steel, ferritic stainless steel, duplex stainless steel, nickel-based alloys, titanium alloys, etc. Used in sulfur-containing oil and gas production in the petroleum and natural gas industry Materials for use in hydrogen atmospheres Part 2.Carbon steels resistant to cracking, Low alloy steel and cast iron

1 Scope
