EPISODE 56 - HVTS in Offshore Service: Slug Catcher Corrosion Case Study
An offshore platform faced pitting corrosion on stainless steel–clad slug catchers. HVTS was applied as a weld overlay alternative, achieving reliable corrosion protection under sour service conditions and delivering significant cost savings.
This episode explores a Gulf Coast refinery’s battle with severe H2S and HCl corrosion in critical stripper towers and a debutanizer. We cover the risks to reliability and safety, and how the refinery addressed these challenges during a major turnaround.
