Need: Stress-corrosion cracking (SCC) is an important issue to address in evaluating pipeline integrity. Methods of predicting the failure and remaining life of pipelines with SCC defects or the potential for containing SCC defects are needed to ensure safe and reliable pipeline operation.
Result: The CorLAS computer program for corrosion life assessment of piping and pressure vessels was found to provide very good predictions of actual SCC failure conditions, but it gave somewhat conservative predictions for very long cracks. This research project was undertaken to develop improvements to CorLAS.
Benefit: The objective of research project PR 186-9709 was to improve the CorLAS Version 1.0 model for predicting the failure and remaining life of pipelines with stress corrosion cracks
