Where A.2 is for SSC(sulfide stress cracking corrosion) resistant & low
alloy steel. A.2 is consistent with a previous established requirement of
NACE MR0175
A.3 is SSC resistant steels through out Region 2
A.4 is SSC resistant steels through out Region 1
A.2,A.3 &A.4 is in Annex A of Part B of NACE 2003

() Our interpretation of NACE 2003 for Martensitic and hardened precipitation S. Steel
S17400 (17-4PH) is good for pH max of 4.5 by NASE.
S41000( AISI410 ) is good for pH max of 3.5 by NACE. DR has same criteria
J91450 (CA6NM) is good for pH max of 3.5 per NACE, but is operated at lower pH for
Shell job
S42400(F6NM) is good for pH max of 3.5 per NACE, but is OK for max pH of 3.29 by
DR, Further it is under NACE testing in Olean. June 2006 will know result
N07718 ( 718 Inconel) is good for pH lower up to 2.5 by DR
