Roddy James (CorrOcean)
2.1 Linking with the previous presentation, Jamie Christie (Aberdeen Harbour Board) gave a Users Perspective on the problem of Accelerated Low Water Corrosion (ALWC), considering this from the civil engineering point of view. He explained the problems facing the Aberdeen Harbour Board, including the costs and the scheduling of maintenance in such a busy port. He also described how similar problems were gradually being experienced in other parts of the world, as the problem spread. The need to share problems and solutions with corrosion experts as well as other harbour authorities was stressed.
2.2 Mike Swidzinski (ConocoPhillips UK) had sent his views on the current situation with respect to seawater corrosion, and the Chairman read these out to the meeting. Mike indicated that, as far as he was aware, there are no hot issues related to seawater affecting ConocoPhillips UK or European Installations at present. The use of seawater approved materials such as high Cr duplex, Marinel, Ferralium and the like is holding up well and not giving rise to problems - including hydrogen cracking. Interestingly, we have seen evidence of Microbial Activity (SRB) on Monel which has resulted in pitting (but no failures).
3.1 Experiences with Super Duplex Stainless Steel in Seawater, R. Francis & G. Byrne (Weir Materials & Foundries)
3.2 'Nickel alloys in offshore oil, gas and marine applications', Steve McCoy (Special Metals Wiggin Ltd)
The
Chairman closed the meeting at approx. 5:00 pm
