Hydrogen Induced Cracking (HIC) tests are available from Element to reliably analyse the vulnerability of your carbon and low alloy steel equipment to hydrogen induced cracking in wet H2S/sour service working conditions such as those seen in the oil and gas sector. The tests are typically performed in accordance with NACE TM0284.
What is HIC requirement?
The most common grades of HIC resistant steel plate is A516 – to ASME/ASTM standards. It will generally be certified to grades 60, 65 and 70 so one plate can meet the requirements for any of the three grades A516 60/65/70 + HIC.
