Introduction

  • Oil and gas are extracted in extreme environment like deep-water offshore, remote arctic locations, and difficult-to-manage reservoirs with unconsolidated sands.
  • In many wells, aggressive environment such as extreme temperature and pressure puts additional burden for the materials.
  • Pipelines is the most economical and viable means of large scale transportation of fluids compare to the other modes.

Introduction

  • Mostly carbon steels are used in the pipelines because of its high mechanical properties yet having corrosion issues(L360 Pipe).
  • Because of the above mentioned environment corrosion is the major issues faced by the oil and gas industries mainly in the pipeline.
  • The total annual cost of corrosion in the oil and gas production industry is estimated to be US$1,372 billion.
  • So in summary, there is a huge demand for the corrosion control technologies in OG industries which is highly reliable due to the excessive cost of replacement or failure in these difficult-to-access locations.

METHODOLOGY

3D Printing- a game changer in developing components 

Why 3D metal Printing?

  • 3D printing can reduce the cost of producing  by eliminating the need for expensive molds and tooling
  • 3D printing allows for faster prototyping and product development because there's no need to change tools or molds.
  • 3D printing can produce accurate and resistant tools that are perfectly adapted to specific needs and missions.
  • 3D printing can make reverse engineering custom or legacy parts for oil drilling rigs more efficient
