The most economical way to move liquids and gaseous hydrocarbons is by using pipelines. According to several international organizations and oil companies, the use of fossil fuels will continue in the following decades. For this reason, it is important to continue studying different corrosion mechanisms and their origins. One of the mechanisms that provoke small leaks, affecting pipeline hermeticity, is pitting corrosion. It is well-known that non-metallic inclusion dissolution can trigger pit nucleation. As pitting corrosion is recognized to be random in nature, it is also interesting to study the random nature of the inclusions present in API 5L X60 steel. Probability distributions commonly used to describe pitting corrosion characteristics are appropriate for studying inclusion characteristics. The size of inclusions plays a key role in pit nucleation because small inclusions tend to generate more defects, especially when these inclusions are compounds of MnS, and the steel is immersed in a corrosive solution. The results of this research work show that there is a close relationship between the random nature of pitting corrosion and inclusions. |
