Recent Developments in Testing Standards for the Sour Service Qualification of Steels

This is a Scottish Branch event, organised and hosted by our Scottish Branch Committee  for members of The Welding Institute's  Sottish, North Scottish and Highland and Islands Branch members.

Overview: There are presently a number of on-going developments in the test standards for the qualification of carbon steels for sour service, in particular NACE MR0175, NACE TM0316, NACE TM0284, NACE TM0177, NACE TM21451 and ISO 3845. This presentation will review the sour service cracking mechanisms for carbon steels and discuss the proposed changes to the test standards and the implications for the qualification of carbon steels for sour service.
