Abstract: Embodiments of the present technology may include a tubular product for oilfield applications. The tubular product may include a tubular substrate, which may include a ferrous alloy. The tubular substrate may have an inner surface characterized by an inner diameter and an outer surface characterized by an outer diameter. The tubular product may also include a first layer deposited over at least one of the inner surface or the outer surface. The first layer may include aluminum. The tubular product may further include a second layer, which may include aluminum oxide formed by micro arc oxidation of a portion of the first layer.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present technology may include a method of improving tribological and corrosion properties of an oilfield tubular for conveying hydrocarbons. The method may include depositing a first layer comprising aluminum over a substrate. The substrate may include a ferrous alloy. The method may also include immersing the substrate and the first layer in an alkaline electrolytic liquid bath. The method may further include oxidizing a first portion of the first layer by micro arc oxidation to form a second layer over a second portion of the first layer. The second layer may include aluminum oxide. The oilfield tubular may include the substrate, the first layer, and the second layer.
