Crevice Corrosion in a Subsea System — Aspect Before Analysis

ML00069 / May.2017
Liquation Cracks in SAW of Low Carbon Steel
M - Low Carbon SteelP - Fabrication WeldAp - AutomotiveCd - Welding Defect
Cm - NItal Etched MacroDf - Welded Joint
Hot cracking at the fusion line of the connector side, in a welded joint between a forging and a pipe, in a macrographic sample.  The region of the heat affected zone of the connector presents a dendritic aspect suggesting that the forging reduction rate of the connector was not too high and did not broke the cast structure.

Cm - Aspect Before AnalysisDf - Welded Joint
Internal surface detail of the 3 1/2" pipe, cut in a longitudinal section (transverse to the weld), presenting a localized corrosion at the margin of the welded joint (Keller etched), in the root.  The pipeline was assembled with pipes manufactured in two different aluminum alloys, AA 3003 (top of the figure) and AA 6063 (bottom of the figure), and the localized corrosion occurred at the fusion line of the 6063 pipe.

Intergranular Corrosion of Aluminum Piping
M - Aluminum ManganeseP - Welded JointAp - Chemical IndustryCd - Intergranular Corrosion
Cm - Surface AspectDf - Welded Joint
Macrography of the pipe to fitting welded joint, in a region where the thickness loss is almost uniform. The pipe is in the left of the figure and the elbow is in the right, with a general thinning (average of 2 mm, considering that the original thickness was 3.7 mm), and a slightly more intense thickness loss at the weld metal near the elbow side.

Pipe to Flange Welded Joint in a 14" ND Superduplex Spool
M - Super Duplex Stainless SteelP - Piping spoolAp - Oil and GasCd - Removed From Service
Cm - NaOH Electrolytic Etched MacroDf - Welded Joint
External aspect of the 8" diameter pipe that suffered localized thinning and leakage associated to the welded regions.  The vertical weld is the pipe seam and the horizontal weld is the circunferential butt weld.
