A new project has been assigned to AMPP Standard Committee (SC) 04 designated as GUIDE 21531—Guidelines for Selection & Testing of Downhole Internal Liners and Coatings.
This document outlines comparative testing programs for internal tubular liners and coatings used for protection from corrosion and wear. It is intended to evaluate the entire mitigation system including the pipe body and connections. The testing program should be a holistic review that represents actual expected field service conditions, and can be used to screen or ultimately select competitive products.
Due to the inherent differences between internal liners and coatings, this guide makes distinctions between the appropriate tests that should be performed on each product.
This guide is not intended to be comprehensive for all applications. It also does not address chemical inhibitors, metallurgical coatings or surface treatments, flow assurance, or the prevention of surface deposits.
The document project manager (DPM) of GUIDE 21531 is Robert Davis. The expected publication date is assigned as May 9, 2023.
If you have any questions, please contact Standards and Technical Business Developer Laura Feix at +1 281-228-6295 or Laura.Feix@ampp.org. After completion of the launch and onboarding process for this new project, Trudy Schreiner is assigned as staff liaison.
SC 11
SC 11’s new project is designated as SP21533—Remote Inspections for Nuclear Spent Fuel Integrity.
This standard practice will communicate the benefits, approaches, and recommended actions for remote inspections of nuclear spent fuel storage casks as an asset integrity management activity undertaken by the power industry.
The DPM of SP21533 is Carl Kempkes. The expected publication date is assigned as May 11, 2023.
If you have any questions, please contact Laura Feix at +1 281-228-6295 or Laura.Feix@ampp.org. After completion of the launch and onboarding process for this new project, Rick Southard is assigned as staff liaison.
SC 20
A new project is assigned to SC 20 designated as GUIDE 21532—Guideline for Materials Selection for CO2 Transport and Injection.
This guideline/standard will provide guidance for carbon, capture, and storage projects addressing the relation between the selected materials and the CO2 purity (maximum content of impurities) as well as potential degradation/failure mechanisms, operating scenarios, etc.
The DPM of GUIDE 21532 is Hans Sonke. The expected publication date is assigned as May 11, 2023. If you have any questions, please contact Everett Bradshaw at +1 281-228-6203 or Everett.Bradshaw@ampp.org.
