Corrosion resistant alloy cladding for the oil gas industry using a high-density Infrared fusion cladding process Corrosion resistant alloys (CRAs) are commonly used in the oil gas industry to protect metal assets in the exploration and production, refineries, and processing plants from corrosion. A carbon steel pipe clad with CRA provides a highly economical alternative to the use of solid CRA pipe. The high-density infrared (HDIR) cladding process is a high productivity fusion process that offers a scalable alternative to laser and weld overlay, an easier to inspect and install alternative compared to mechanical cladding, and a seamless weld-free alternative compared to roll bonding for corrosion- and wear-resistant alloy claddings for manufacturing CRA clad pipes. The HDIR technology uses a high-density infrared thermal source (an artificial sun captured in a reflector) to rapidly melt, fuse, and metallurgically bond metal and composite coatings on steel pipes, plates and bars at very high fusion rates. Current well established processes for producing clad steels have product limitations and/or require large capital investments to modify or expand capacity and offerings. HDIR fusion cladding offers the product flexibility and low capital costs of laser or arc-weld overlay cladding process but offers a higher purity overlay and much higher and scalable production rates. Cladding deposited by HDIR process typically show a higher corrosion resistance, stronger metallurgical bond, lower dilution, and lower porosity compared to conventional cladding technologies.
