High-alloy materials for offshore applications

High-alloy materials possessing good corrosion resistance in hot, sour brines are being seriously considered for offshore applications. These alloys are available in a wide range of strength levels which can be attained by the methods of cold working or precipitation hardening. Results of testing INCONEL alloys 625 and 718 and INCOLOY alloys 825 and 925 for resistance to general corrosion, hydrogen embrittlement, and stress-corrosion cracking (SCC) are presented. This paper also contrasts the range of mechanical properties available in precipitation-hardened materials with properties of cold-worked alloys.
