OIL & GAS INDUSTRY APPLICATIONS

Engineered hardfacing solutions for the most challenging wear environments.

The oil, gas and petrochemical industries present unique challenges: parts need to withstand wear, corrosion and intense pressure under hostile subsea environment. As oil and gas production moves into extremely harsh, hard to reach subsea environments, frequent equipment failure and maintenance is not at all desirable. During down-hole drilling, drill bits break, motors seize, and critical wear components give out at the most critical time. Wear is a primary cause of tool failure. The need to use ultra-high-performance engineered hardfacing solutions in the design and manufacturing of critical oil and gas components is and should be managements’ top priority. Hardcarb has an extensive portfolio of such ultra-high-performance materials as well as decades of experience in the areas of abrasion, corrosion, wear and extreme pressure. Following are a few examples where Hardcarb anti-wear solutions are regularly offered:

  • Wear sleeves and stabilizers: Hardfacing of new as well as refurbishment of old wear sleeves and stabilizers for steerable drilling systems, logging systems, MWD tools, LWD tools, drilling motor sleeves.

  • Hole openers and drill bits 

  • Tool joints – hardbanding with casing friendly materials.

  • Ball valves, gate valves, seats and stems 

Since Hardcarb is a 360o solution provider with a comprehensive portfolio of wear protection products, we are not limited to just one solution while providing engineered hardfacing solutions for the oil and gas industry. This also enables us to carry out an unbiased examination, and to propose designs for your plant components and assemblies which offer the ideal techno-economically optimized solution.
