scope:
A multitask experimental study was conducted to provide the petroleum industry with solutions to recurring incidents of cracking in the application of welded l¼Cr-l½Mo steel for hydrogen processing equipment. The principal objective was to develop recommendations for the elimination of cracking that occurred during fabrication or early in operating life, was associated with repairs or was found after ex- tended service exposure at elevated temperature.
