Introduction Lifetime of structural element consists in: at ambient temperature Crack initiation stage → Crack propagation stage at elevated temperature Microstructure change (because of diffusion) stage → Crack initiation stage → Crack propagation stage Hydrogen intensifies diffusion and correspondingly accelerates microstructure change stage induced by diffusion processes

Conclusions 1. The thermocycling of the material containing dissolved hydrogen is the effective rapid method for testing of high temperature degradation of steels. 2. The parameters of crack growth resistance are especially sensitive to high temperature metal degradation in the service and laboratory conditions. 3. Weld metal of steam pipeline steel is the most disposed to high-temperature degradation. In this case the tensile mechanical properties of strength and plasticity are sensitive enough to “in-bulk” material degradation. The revealed simultaneous reduction of strength and brittle fracture resistance is a phenomenon of in-service degradation. This phenomenon is strengthened by non-typical change of the parameters of plasticity: an elongation increases and reduction of area decreases with the weld metal service. 4. Hydrogen accelerates creep rate in the hydrocracking reactor shell steel. 5. A good correlation between changes of electrochemical and mechanical parameters gives prospects for the development of NDT methods for evaluation of the current state of steels irrespective of the fact that material is exploited or not exploited in corrosion-hydrogenated environments. 6. The example of a usage of Risk Based Maintenance and Inspection (RBMI) Approach is presented concerning the collector of water economizer.
