Microstructural investigations by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed stepwise cracking (SWC) as the result of the presence of MnS inclusions. Fitness-for-service (FFS) assessment based on API579-1\/ASME FFS-1 was performed to decide on the pipeline serviceability. The finite element analysis (FEA) results showed that the HIC-damaged pipeline was acceptable per level-3 FFS requirements and the pipeline understudy was fit for service. The remaining life of the damaged pipeline should also be periodically monitored using failure assessment diagram (FAD).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/link.springer.com\/article\/10.1007\/s11668-021-01248-x\"><br \/>\n              <strong>Download<\/strong><br \/>\n            <\/a>\n          <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n            <\/div><\/div>\n            <\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"During inspection of an 11-km-long pipeline made of API X60 steel carrying hydrocarbons containing wet H2S, hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC) was found at different locations along the pipeline length.
