Description

The overall objective of this research is to assess the engineering design, performance, reliability, mechanical, corrosion, etc. by conducting physical and corrosion testing of the current and new high temperature alloy material grades for offshore oil and gas activities.  This study will serve as valuable information to predict the potential behavior of new materials in manufacturing of offshore oil and gas equipment and its performance under HPHT sour service environment conditions.
