Baker Hughes, an energy technology company, announced a joint technology development program with Petrobras to provide a ...

When water enters a pipe's annulus area, it can lead to corrosion of the steel reinforcement layers, compromising structural integrity and shortening the system's lifespan, Baker Hughes said.

In situations where carbon dioxide (CO 2), hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) and water permeate through the protective barrier layer of the pipe, the steel may corrode causing ... the hardest gas to block.
