U
ltrafine grained (UFG) and bulk nano-crystalline (NC)
alloys possess unique properties of high-strength,
corrosion-resistance, making them ideal candidates
for applications in demanding conditions, for example
deployment in sour-hostile reservoirs. Conflicting data on
mechanism(s) and corrosion behavior of nanomaterials
have been published because of several factors,
primarily due to limitations of experiments conducted
in aggressive (high pressure and temperature (HPHT)
caustic) environments. Here we present, our know-how
around a large number of novel fabrication and processing
techniques with controlled supply chain to tailor multi-
functional properties of materials by manipulating
materials microstructure at atomic scales to achieve
combination of strength, ductility, fracture-toughness,
corrosion resistance, among other properties with a focus
on accelerated corrosion or dissolvability. Our lecture will
encompass experiments exposing nano-materials to HPHT
conditions to demystify conundrums current in literary
domains. As concluding remarks, we will reflect on (a) our
capabilities to synthesize disruptive technologies across
industries, to increase the throughput of engineering
operations, the basis of our competitive advantage (b)
integrating nano-materials into areas of upstream oil and
gas to economize.
