These tests were carried out on specimens, which were pretreated under the following conditions for 168 hours: temperature, 60 ℃; pressure, 10 MPa; H2S partial pressure, 1 MPa and CO_(2) partial pressure, 1 MPa; preload stress, 80% of the yield strength (os); medium, simulated formation water. The reduction in tensile and impact strengths for P-110 casing specimens in corrosive environments were 28% and 54%, respectively. The surface morphology analysis indicated that surface damage and uniform plastic deformation occurred as a result of strain aging. Impact toughness of the casing decreased significantly and intergranular cracking occurred when specimens were maintained at a high stress level of 85% %.展开更多
