Why Oil & Gas Relies on Our Titanium?

The oil and gas industry operates in the most hostile environments, where material failure can lead to catastrophic consequences. Titanium’s unique properties directly address these critical challenges.

Unparalleled Corrosion Resistance

Exceptional resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking in chloride-rich environments (seawater, brine) and sour service (H2S, CO2) conditions.

High Strength-to-Weight Ratio

Significantly reduces weight in offshore and subsea applications (risers, umbilicals), simplifying installation, reducing structural loads, and improving system performance.

HPHT Capability

Certain titanium alloys retain their mechanical properties and corrosion resistance at the high pressures and temperatures (up to 300°C+) encountered in deep-sea and challenging reservoirs.

Superior Fatigue Resistance

Exhibits excellent fatigue strength and crack propagation resistance, crucial for components subjected to continuous cyclic loading from waves, currents, and operational stresses.

Reduced Lifecycle Costs

By resisting degradation and extending operational life, titanium minimizes maintenance, repair, and downtime costs, resulting in a lower total lifecycle cost despite higher initial material investment.

Key Titanium Grades for Oil & Gas Applications

We supply titanium alloys certified to meet the rigorous demands of the oil and gas industry, including NACE compliance for sour service environments:

Alloy GradeKey CharacteristicsTypical Applications
Grade 2 (CP Ti)Excellent balance of strength and corrosion resistance in seawater and brine.Heat exchangers, general piping systems, cooling systems on offshore platforms.
Grade 5 (Ti-6Al-4V)High strength, lightweight, excellent fatigue resistance.Drill pipe, risers, subsea manifolds, high-stress structural components.
Grade 7 (Ti-0.2Pd)Superior crevice corrosion resistance, especially in reducing acids and sour service.Critical piping, valve components, highly corrosive process streams.
Grade 12 (Ti-0.3Mo-0.8Ni)Enhanced resistance to crevice corrosion at elevated temperatures.Offshore platform risers, heat exchanger components, downhole tools.
