Pyrophoric Shale on Tubulars

Hello all,

Has anyone had experience of pyrophoric shale found on/in recovered tubulars? Has this situated ever occurred in the North Sea? If not, then has it occurred anywhere else in the world?

How is it detected? And if you can't detect it, how do you know you have it?

Finally, what is the best way to tackle it and return the tubulars to shore?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all.
