Balanced bipolar operation was widely used in the HVDC transmission project in China. Under balanced bipolar operation, DC current of equal magnitude but opposite direction flows through the both poles, making the current on the ground electrode the smallest. However, the DC current on the ground electrode can be very large in the case of monopolar lockout due to equipment failure or natural disaster, which causes DC interference on the pipelines nearby. The ground electrode discharge interference can then lead to a shift of electrode potential of the pipeline to the negative direction, making the pipe-to soil potential more negative than hydrogen reduction potential. This could increase a risk of hydrogen degradation during service, causing unpredictable fracture to the pipelines. In this work, the effect of DC interference generated by HVDC ground electrode discharging on hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility of pipeline was investigated on X70 and X80 steels, which are frequently used as materials for oil and gas pipelines. The simulated negative interferences with different intervals and frequencies were applied on X70 and X80 steel in soil environment and the hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility of X70 and X80 steels was evaluated by means of slow strain rate test (SSRT) and fracture toughness measurement. The results show that the elongation and reduction of area, as well as the fracture toughness, decreased with the increase of interference duration for both X70 and X80 steels, indicating that the hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility increased under negative interference.
