Electronic corrosion engineer 5.9_Corrosion analysis and materials selection software
Corrosion model with real-world calibration
ECE® provides realistic corrosion modelling assessments calibrated to actual field data for operators and engineering contractors globally.
Corrosion caused by CO2, H2S and O2 in process fluids is one of the main challenges in the design and operation of facilities for oil and gas production, pipelines, processing and other systems.
ECE helps engineers and operators predict corrosion rates and select corrosion-resistant materials using a combination of lab data and real-world field calibration studies on pipelines, piping and downhole tubing.
Corrosion analysis
Operators, engineers, contractors and suppliers worldwide rely on ECE to support critical decision-making related to corrosion management. ECE can be used to:
Conduct feasibility and concept studies for new projects
Perform front-end and detailed design engineering
Select cost-effective and suitable materials
Analyse operational corrosion issues
Predict and extend asset life
ECE is applicable where corrosion is primarily caused by acid gases such as CO2 and H2S.
This includes front-end oil and gas production, pipelines, downstream processing, geothermal energy and, in some situations, power generation, refining and other industries.
Analyse potential corrosion rates of carbon steel flowlines and tubing with presence of O2, CO2 and H2S.
CRA (corrosion resistant alloy) evaluation
Icon for operational integrity
Select suitable materials by assessing resistance to corrosion considering factors like service conditions, alloy types and long-term cost analysis.
Both ISO 15156-3 sour service and ECE’s own rules are available to assess future conditions.
Lifecycle cost
calculation (LCC)
Icon for production operations
Evaluate the lifecycle cost of CRA compared to carbon steel, considering OPEX and CAPEX requirements.
