This project is a follow up to the project titled "Effects of Tensile Loading on Remaining Strength of Corroded Casing." The objective is to test additional samples of corroded casing that will fail at typical storage well operating pressures and transfer the developed technology to MFL vendors for use in storage fields. A test matrix of 13 specimens was developed and tested. The test specimens consisted of natural corrosion and machined defects. Prior to testing: • the specimen material was characterized with tensile, Charpy V-notch, hardness, and chemical tests and • the test specimens were...
This project is a follow up to the project titled "Effects of Tensile Loading on Remaining Strength of Corroded Casing." The objective is to test additional samples of corroded casing that will fail at typical storage well operating pressures and transfer the developed technology to MFL vendors for use in storage fields. A test matrix of 13 specimens was developed and tested. The test specimens consisted of natural corrosion and machined defects. Prior to testing: • the specimen material was characterized with tensile, Charpy V-notch, hardness, and chemical tests and • the test specimens were shipped to 2 MFL vendors for logging. The results of the testing and MFL characterization are summarized in this report.
