EN ISO 15156-3:2015 Petroleum and natural gas industries - Materials for use in H2S-containing environments in oil and gas production - Part 3: Cracking-resistant CRAs (corrosion-resistant alloys) and other alloys (ISO 15156-3:2015)
This part of ISO 15156 specifies requirements and provides recommendations for the selection and qualification of high alloy steels (CRAs) (corrosion-resistant alloys) and other alloys for use in oil and gas production facilities and natural gas treatment facilities in H2S-containing environments, their failure may pose a possible health and safety risk to the general public and personnel or to the environment. It can be used to avoid costly damage due to corrosion of the system itself. It supplements, but does not replace, the requirements for materials contained in relevant design guidelines, standards or regulations. This part of ISO 15156 addresses the resistance of these materials to damage that can be caused by H2S-induced stress corrosion cracking (SSC), stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and galvanically induced hydrogen cracking (GHSC). This part of ISO 15156 deals only with cracking. It does not address material losses due to general (mass loss-related) or localized corrosion. Table 1 provides a non-exhaustive list of equipment falling within the scope of this part of ISO 15156, including approved exceptions. This part of ISO 15156 applies to the qualification and selection of materials for equipment designed and constructed using load-driven design methods. For designs that use strain-based design methods, see ISO 15156-1:2015, Section 5. This part of ISO 15156 is not necessarily suitable for application to equipment in refining or downstream processes and facilities.
