摘要

Existing natural gas pipelines provide an economic alternative for the transport of hydrogen (H-2) in an envisioned hydrogen economy. Hydrogen can dissolve in the steel and cause hydrogen embrittlement (HE), compromising pipeline structural integrity. HE causes subcritical cracking, decreases ductility and fracture toughness, and increases the fatigue crack growth rate (FCGR). This work analyzes the testing standards in gaseous hydrogen used to quantify those effects. Design code ASME B31.12 applicable to hydrogen pipelines has more stringent requirements than ASME B31.8 code commonly used for constructing natural gas pipelines. Differences in materials requirements specified by those codes are summarized. ASME B31.12 pipeline code applies for H-2 at a concentration greater than 10% molar. However, recent testing programs acknowledge that H-2 degrades steel mechanical properties regardless of its percentage in the blend. This paper discusses how the hydrogen degraded mechanical properties affect pipeline integrity. Decreased mechanical properties cause a drop in the failure pressure of a flawed pipeline, calculated following a fitness for service methodology. There is an increasing risk of subcritical crack growth in H-2 as the hardness of base metal and welds increases. This paper analyzes where zones with high hardness and susceptible microstructures are expected in existing pipelines.
