Re: [MW:25457] RE: 25392] PWHT

It is controlled by the crystalline structure and more specifically:

1. by the diffusion of atomic hydrogen
   
2. by the capability to sustain the pressure of molecular hydrogen by plastic transformation
   

The increase of hardness is an indication of low ductility and thus less possibility of plastic transformation of the grains

Regarding the belowmentioned

I need to confirm that HIC is not controlled by hardness control but by steel chemistry 

All shall be reminded that wet sour service induce 

Sulfide stress cracking

Hydrogen induced cracking 

Stress oriented hydrogen induced cracking 

Hydrogen blistering 

Nace MR 0175 or nace MR 0103 only control ssc, please read these code introduction /preface

Hello, ZHY370137,

 

I'm not sure why you're asking this question is general forum, when your contract is bound by your clients' specifications and project requirements. Aramco has very comprehensive specifications for almost everything. If Aramco SAES-W-012 is applicable for your project you need to what's needed as per this spec.

 

What's  the design code, of the pipeline B-31.4 or 31.8? And what're the Aramco specifications applicable?

 

Usually for sour service hardness control is "mandatory" to mitigate the HIC. One of the effective ways to ensure hardness control is PWHT, unless vendor is able to prove otherwise.

 

Appreciate your response.

 

Thanks.
