Application of Titanium Alloy and Titanium-Based Coatings in a Gate Valve during Oil Production

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the Caspian region, the Tengiz oil field has a high content of sulfur, salts and mechanical impurities, which contribute to the rapid deterioration of equipment. The use of titanium alloy allows reducing corrosion wear 2-3 times. Based on the analysis of the design of the slide gate valve, the most exposed parts were identified, which were replaced by Grade 5 titanium alloy. Bench tests of the slide gate valve were put into operation. Laboratory work was carried out to apply titanium-based coatings to steel samples. The result was a structure with a microhardness of 730-810 HV sufficient to protect it against corrosion wear.
