This NACE technical committee report was prepared by Task Group (TG) 039, (formerly T-10E-6) on In-Line Nondestructive Inspection of Pipelines, which is administered by Specific Technology Group (STG) 35, Pipelines, Tanks, and Well Casings. This report is issued by NACE International...
This guide covers and describes the factors that influence laboratory immersion corrosion tests, particularly mass loss tests. These factors include apparatus, sampling, test specimen, test conditions (test solution composition, temperature, gas sparging, fluid motion, solution volume, method of...
General Erosion is defined by NACE International as "The progressive loss of material from a solid surface resulting from mechanical interaction between that surface and a fluid, a multicomponent fluid, or solid particles carried with the fluid." Erosion has two main consequences for the Oil...
ABSTRACT This NACE International standard provides the most current technology and industry practices for prioritization of cased piping using In-Line Inspection (ILI) data. Metallic casings are used to install and protect the carrier pipe at pipeline crossings such as those at road and...
This standard is considered as the basis for the cleaning, surface preparation, and application of paint and coating systems to Navy ships used in marine environments for New Build, and during Life Cycle maintenance and permanent repair. Each user shall specify critical areas for application...
ABSTRACT Revised in 2020, this NACE International standard practice provides current technology and industry practices for the use of field-applied heat-shrinkable-slee
ABSTRACT The purpose of this NACE International technical report is to provide basic information regarding the mechanisms involved with cathodic protection (CP) shielding for external coatings applied to carbon steel pipelines, and the manner in which the breakdown of coating systems may or...
General This standard establishes an SSR test method for screening CRAs (i.e., stainless steels and nickel-based alloys) for resistance to SCC at elevated temperatures in sour oilfield production environments. The fact that this test method is a screening method implies that further evaluation or...
General This standard presents standard practices for using galvanic anodes to apply CP to the internal submerged surfaces of steel tanks used for the storage of potable and reclaimed water, drinking water, irrigation water, and fire protection water. Appendix A (nonmandatory) provides guidance for...
ABSTRACT This standard specifies metallic material requirements for the construction of sucker- rod pumps for service in corrosive oilfield environments. American Petroleum Institute (API) Spec 11AX provides dimension requirements that ensure the interchangeability of component parts. However, that...
ABSTRACT This technical report applies to water-using cooling and heating systems in buildings. It provides information for minimizing system damage and operational interference because of corrosion, scale, fouling, and microbiological growth in building heating, ventilation, and air conditioning...
ABSTRACT When distress of a structure is evident, it is important to determine the nature of the degradation to select the best restoration strategy. This standard practice provides testing procedures and investigative techniques for the evaluation of masonry- clad steel frame buildings. The...
ABSTRACT This technical report presents state-ofthe- art information on several commercially available galvanic cathodic protection/ prevention systems for protecting atmospherically exposed reinforced concrete structures. The information contained in this report has been provided by key...
ABSTRACT Assessment of corrosion in the field is complex because of the variety of applications, process conditions, and fluid phases that exist in industrial plants where corrosion occurs. A wide range of direct and indirect measurement techniques is available, but each technique has its strengths...
ABSTRACT Cathodic protection (CP) coupons have been used since the 1930s by pioneers of the corrosion control industry, both in North America and in Europe. They have been shown to be a practical tool for determining the level of polarization of a structure and to confirm the IR drop in a potential...
ABSTRACT This technical report presents evaluation techniques which can potentially be used to complement performance criteria of international standards, especially if the criteria cannot be employed to evaluate the effectiveness of cathodic protection and corrosion control techniques applied to...
ABSTRACT There are an estimated 900,000 electric utility steel transmission and distribution structures in North America alone. The majority of these structures were installed between 1950 and 1990. These structures are now an average of about 45 years of age. The age of these structures dictates...
General This standard presents accepted methods and practices regarding the use of CP for the control of external corrosion on buried or submerged carbon steel, stainless steel, gray cast iron, ductile cast iron, copper, and aluminum piping systems at nuclear power plants. It is not intended for CP...
Scope and Limitations This standard was developed at the request of the U.S. Department of Defense to define the key elements/composition
