Safe Use Limits for Stainless Steels Safe Use Limits for Stainless Steels Information included here is from a multiclient sponsored research program entitled, "Safe Use Limits for Stainless Steels in Production of Oil and Gas Containing H2S and CO2." This program involved extensive experimental studies which were conducted to better identify the limits of environmental severity (i.e. H2S and CO2 partial pressure, chloride content, pH and temperature) where stainless steels may be useful in oil and gas production tubulars and equipment. A total of twenty-one companies participated in this program. Originally, the program budget was developed based on only 15 companies. The funding received from the additional sponsors was used to expand the number of tests and alloys included in this program. The program was originally scheduled to be completed in two years. However, with the expanded scope of work, the program was extended to a total duration of 4 years. Therefore, the experimental portion of the program ran from August 1990 through January 1994. From January 1994 through May 1994, the final results were reviewed and tabulated and the draft final report prepared. Following a meeting with the sponsor representatives in May 1994, some additional data was generated and revised guidelines presented herein.
