Introduction
Core changes in the standard revision
| Technical module | Contents of the 2009 version | Main points for upgrading the 2020 version |
|---|---|---|
| Process control | Basic process requirements | Added sand scouring control (5.4) and prevention of sudden flow pattern changes (5.1.4) |
| Material selection | Simple material regulations | Refine the application scenarios of 6 types of corrosion-resistant alloys (Table 2-5) and supplement galvanic corrosion protection (6.1.4) |
| Chemical agents | Basic requirements for corrosion inhibitors | Add bactericide/scaling inhibitor system (Chapter 7), compatibility evaluation (7.1.3) |
Corrosion control technology system
1. Key points of process control
The standard requires that the flow rate be controlled within the range of 0.5-7m/s, and a de-sander should be configured for sand-containing pipelines (5.4.1). The dehydration process should reduce the water content to <3% (5.2.1), and the oxygen content should be lower than 0.1mg/L (5.2.2).
2. Material selection matrix
316L stainless steel is suitable for CO₂ partial pressure <0.2MPa environment, UNSN06625 alloy is used for acidic conditions with H₂S partial pressure >0.003MPa (Table 2). 25Cr duplex stainless steel is preferred for seawater systems (Table 5), and its upper limit of crevice corrosion temperature is 20℃ (Table 6).
Implementation Suggestions
- New projects should be classified according to Article 4.2 for corrosivity, and composite anti-corrosion measures must be adopted for medium/severe grades
- The corrosion inhibitor filling system must be equipped with resistance probes (9.2.4) and hanging plate monitoring (9.2.6), and data records must be kept for ≥10 years (Chapter 10)
- It is recommended to use the field signal method monitoring technology (9.2.7) for submarine pipelines, and conduct a comprehensive inspection at least once a year
