Grants and Contributions:

Title:

Thermal and Mechanical Validation of Novel Multi-layered Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) Systems using Experimental and Modeling Approaches (Phase-I)

Agreement Number:

1033106

Agreement Value:

$248,670.00

Agreement Date:

Jul 1, 2025 - Mar 31, 2026

Description:

Corrosion under insulation (CUI), insulation-driven Stress corrosion cracking (IGSCC) and thermal losses are the major issues for thermally insulated equipment in Oil & gas. While Integrity Products multi-layered Insulation systems namely PTFE Spacer Wrap and Insulation Ventilation System aim to address the abovesaid problems and validated against ASTM G189-07 (i.e., standard for CUI testing), there is a gap in the worldwide commercialization of these systems. Also, there is a research gap with the testing of IGSCC especially from the standpoint of fracture mechanics. Finally, the thermal losses from the systems need to be better understood. The project aims to understand the standards, address the market & knowledge gaps via testing.
