What is ISO 17348 - Materials for high content CO2 gas about?
Industries which regularly use different types of natural gases require a safe system to store and mobilize it based on the nature of the gas. ISO 17348 provides guidelines and requirements for material selection of both seamless casing and tubing, and downhole equipment for CO2 gas injection and gas production wells with high pressure and high CO2 content environments [higher than 10 % (molar) of CO2 and 1 MPa CO2 partial pressure]. ISO 17348 only considers materials compatibility with the environment. Guidance is given for the following:
- corrosion evaluation
- materials selection
- corrosion control
ISO 17348 is aimed at high CO2 content wells, where the threat of low pH and CO2corrosion is greatest. However, many aspects are equally applicable to environments containing lower
CO2 concentrations. Materials selection is influenced by many factors and synergies and should be performed by either materials or corrosion engineer.
Who is ISO 17348 - Materials for high content CO2 gas for?
ISO 17348 for materials for casing and tubing, and downhole equipment for CO2 gas is helpful for:
- Mechanical industry
- Manufacturers of electronics
- Fluid in circuits
- Metals industry
- Manufacturing and construction uses
- Rubber and plastics industry uses
Why should you use ISO 17348 - Materials for high content CO2 gas?
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has been identified as an important technology for achieving a significant reduction in CO2 emissions to the atmosphere.
ISO 17348 provides quality guidelines for reliable, and safe means of transporting, storing, and utilizing CO2 gas. ISO 17348 provides you with safe, and efficient methods for the mobilization of CO2 gas which leads to a positive impact on the whole value chain from gas production, and supply to end uses.
