Developing and updating Engineering specifications and
philosophies related to Materials and Corrosion Discipline

The material selection process is the identification of one or more materials with properties that satisfy the functional requirements of a product, such as strength and hardness. Besides this, it is appreciated that materials selection is cost effective and environmentally friendly.

Evaluation of materials and preparation of its philosophy based on present process conditions in oil and gas field plants is mandatory to avoid risk and corrosion damage. Excellent Materials Selection according to conditions decreases maintenance cost, manpower and increases life of piping/pipeline/equipment.

Cormat has successfully completed many corrosion and material selection offshore/onshore projects for process plants, production wells, subsea systems and gathering networks across the world.

Selection of materials and validation shall be supported by and in accordance with Client own standards (if applicable), guidelines, international standards and consultant’s experience. Process conditions are based on Basis of Design document provided by client and should base on latest production forecast.

What Goals are intended to be achieved in Materials Selection?

The material selection has the following goals:

  1. Safe operation
  2. High reliability and low-down time
  3. Minimizing maintenance requirement
  4. Minimum life cycle cost (CAPEX and OPEX)

Parameters Considered to achieve these Goals?

To achieve these goals, the following will be considered:

  1. Design life
  2. Process parameters & corrosion assessment
  3. Site environmental conditions
  4. Weight
  5. Fabrication, installation and commissionin
