By means of the RFP, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is seeking proposals from bidders to study the impact of hydrogen on steel casing and tubing materials for hydrogen production by in-situ gasification and hydrogen storage in geological formations.
The main project objectives include:
1. Investigate the influence of steel casing/tubing material properties such as alloying element, grade, microstructure and surface condition on hydrogen permeation and hydrogen-induced damage
2. Determine the effect of environmental parameters, i.e., temperature, hydrogen partial pressure, impurities, and stress level on hydrogen permeation and hydrogen-induced damage
3. Develop prediction models to estimate the impact of hydrogen on steel casing/tubing materials
