Mr. Murali has over 20 years of material testing laboratory experience. He is familiar with the metallurgy of carbon, alloy and stainless steels, superalloys, and with ASTM, ASME, API, IS and NACE material standards and specifications, and with both destructive and nondestructive test methodology.

He has strong experience in evaluating properties of materials, materials characterization and behavior, materials specifications, mechanical testing, corrosion detection, machining of materials, and laboratory design and operation.

Mr. Murali has coordinated, planned and overseen internal test programs, and is accomplished as a customer liaison, program manager. He keeps himself abreast of all innovations in the sour gas corrosion field by reading scientific journals, industry specifications and participating in technical discussions. He also has extensive knowledge in physical and chemical testing, corrosion, failure analysis, materials selection, welding qualification and Metallography.

He is adept at performing various corrosion including intergranular corrosion attack, weight loss corrosion, pitting corrosion, Sour gas corrosion tests such as sulfide stress cracking (SSCC), salt spray, stress corrosion cracking, and hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC) for oil and gas, power, construction, shipping, petrochemical and process industries.
