Overview

This part of ISO 15156 gives requirements and recommendations for the selection and qualification of cracking-resistant CRAs (corrosion-resistant alloys) and other alloys for service in equipment used in oil and natural gas production and natural gas treatment plants in H₂S-containing environments, whose failure can pose a potential risk to the health and safety of the public and personnel or to the environment. It can be applied to avoid costly corrosion damage to the equipment itself. It supplements, but does not replace, the material requirements of the appropriate design codes, standards or regulations. This part of ISO 15156 addresses the resistance of these materials to damage that can be caused by sulfide stress-cracking (SSC), stress-corrosion cracking (SCC) and galvanically-induced hydrogen stress cracking (GHSC). This part of ISO 15156 is concerned only with cracking. Loss of material by general (mass loss) or localized corrosion is not addressed. Table 1 provides a non-exhaustive list of equipment to which this part of ISO 15156 is applicable, including permitted exclusions. This part of ISO 15156 applies to the qualification and selection of materials for equipment designed and constructed using conventional elastic design criteria. For designs utilizing plastic criteria (for example, strain-based and limit-state designs), see ISO 15156-1:2009, clause 5. This part of ISO 15156 is not necessarily suitable for application to equipment used in refining or downstream processes and equipment. The responsible German Committee is NA 109-00-01 AA "Materialien, Ausrüstungen und Offshore-Bauwerke für die Erdöl-, petrochemische und Erdgasindustrie - Spiegelausschuss zu CEN/TC 12 und ISO/TC 67" ("Materials, equipment and offshore structures for petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries - Mirror Committee of CEN/TC 12 and ISO/TC 67") at the Petroleum and Natural Gas Industries Standards Committee (NÖG) of DIN, the German Institute for Standardization e. V.
