Alloy 825

UNS N08825 / W.Nr 2.4858

COMMON TRADE NAMES: 2242, Alloy 2242, SM2242®, Incoloy® 825, Inc825, Sanicro® 41

825 Applicable EnvironmentsAlloy 825 (UNS N08825), also referred to as 2242, is a cold hardened nickel-based alloy, intended for corrosion resistance in highly sour (H2S) environments with moderate chloride content, requiring high strength up to 350°F.

825 offers increased resistance to the effects of H2S relative to stainless steels allowing its use as downhole tubular components, packers, and other subsurface equipment in sour wells with high-pressure and high-temperature (HPHT) conditions and Acid Gas Injection (AGI) wells. However, all environmental factors, including H2S, CO2 , temperature, pH, and chloride concentration, should be considered before final material selection.

The alloy is classified in MR0175/ISO15156 as a type 4c alloy, with no restrictions to a partial pressure of H2S below 270°F and resistant to 200 psi H2S at 350°F.

Applications in Upstream Oil & Gas

  • Corrosive environments containing the presence of CO2 , H2S, and chlorides, in temperatures up to 300°F, without the presence of sulfur
  • Tubing
  • Casing
  • Liners
  • Base Pipe for Sand Screens
  • Expandables
  • Perforating Guns
  • Landing Joints
  • Extensions
  • Shrouds
  • Marker Joints
  • Pipe for VIT
  • Swell Packers
  • Geothermal
  • Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS)
