Ensuring Austenitic Stainless Steel 316L Compliance with Sour Service Standards Using AlloySelect
Maximize Corrosion Resistance with AlloySelect: Stainless Steel 316L (UNS S31603) for Sour Service Applications
In the demanding environments of the oil and gas industry, selecting materials that can withstand corrosive conditions is paramount. Austenitic Stainless Steel 316L (UNS S31603) is often a material of choice due to its notable corrosion resistance. However, determining its suitability for sour service requires a thorough understanding of environmental limits as defined by NACE MR0175 standards.
Updated Standards for Enhanced Protection
The suitability of Stainless Steel 316L for sour service has seen significant updates in NACE MR0175 through Technical Circular 2013, with full incorporation in the 2015 revision. Technical Circular #2 of NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 – 2009, issued on August 27, 2013, outlines these critical updates, providing essential guidance for industry professionals.
