We study the corrosion, electrochemical, and corrosion–mechanical properties of deposited KKh30N6VSR cobalt-based, NKh15SR3 nickel-based, and Kh16N8S5 iron-based alloys in a standard NACE hydrogen-sulfide solution. It is shown that the deposited Kh16N8S5 iron-based alloy is unsuitable for these conditions due to its low corrosion resistance and susceptibility to hydrogen-induced cracking. The cobalt- and nickel-based alloys are suitable for the surfacing of the components of shutoff fittings of the oil-and-gas extraction equipment. However, as far as the “operating characteristics–cost” ratio is concerned, the nickel-based alloy outweighs the cobalt- based alloy.
