Introduction

• CO2 and H2S gases in combination with water are the main cause of

corrosion in oil and gas production.

• It results from the practice of pumping CO2 saturated water (seawater

or fresh water) into wells to enhance oil recovery and reduce theor fresh water) into wells to enhance oil recovery and reduce the

viscosity of the pumped fluid.

• As field ages, the ratio of water/oil in the produced fluids increases and

can reach levels of 95% or higher. increase of the corrosion problems.

• Approximately 60% of oilfield failures are related to CO2 corrosion.

• CO2 can produce not only general corrosion but also localized corrosion.

Introduction

• Due to these processes, a corrosion layer is formed on the steel

surface.

• Because of its low solubility, FeCO3 precipitates out of solution.

• The corrosion rate will depend on the properties &• The corrosion rate will depend on the properties &

protectiveness of FeCO3 scale.

• The protectiveness of FeCO3 scale depend on the nature of the

base alloy (microstructure, composition) and on the properties of

the environment (temperature, pH, CO2 partial pressure, etc.).

• Different microstructure is resulted from two different heat treatments

(annealing and quench and tempering).

• The microstructure is considered to have an important effect on how firmly

the corrosion scale sticks to the surface.

• The corrosion layer formed on carbon steel is also composed of cementite

(Fe3C).

Experimental

• The characterization was made by means of scanning

electron microscopy (SEM), electron dispersive X-ray

(EDX) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).

Result and Discussion

Result and Discussion

• Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and linear

polarization resistance (LRP) results showed that Q and T samples

present higher resistance polarization (Rp) values and, therefore,

have a better corrosion resistance than the annealed ones.

Conclusion

• The adherence of the scale to the metal depend on the

microstructure of the metal specimen.

• The adherence of the corrosion product film was higher in the

quenched samples.quenched samples.

• From the results, it was concluded that the microstructure of

the steel influences the properties of the corrosion layers, such

as morphology and proportion of the various chemical

compounds present.

deionized water and 3 wt.% NaCl at atmospheric pressure in the

temperature range of 55-850C and pH 5.5-6.5 for 72 h.

• Before testing, the solution was deoxygenated by purging CO2 for at

least 2 h.

• CO2 purging was continued throughout test. pH was monitored

throughout the test and adjusted using NaHCO3 or HCl.

Results and discussion

T = 55oC

• At 55oC, from XRD pattern, FeCO3 has not formed on any of the samples.

• 55oC is lower than the threshold temperature for forming FeCO3.

• At 55oC, from SEM image, shows that no corrosion product film was formed

on the surface of steel.

Results and discussion

T = 65oC

• From XRD pattern, FeCO3 has formed in all samples.

• 65oC is equal or higher than the threshold temperature of FeCO3 formation.

• From SEM image, rhombohedric FeCO3 crystals are precipitated in all

• The apparent compactness of layer ↑ with ↑ pH; the highest compactness

was seen at pH 6.5.

• From XRD pattern, show that FeCO3 has precipitated in all pH conditions

pH ↑, the number of FeCO3 peaks ↑ the amount of FeCO3 ↑

• Compared to 65oC, at 75oC there are more grains with a compact

arrangement in all pH conditions, which formed an apparently dense layer.

Results and discussion

FeCO3 layer. Corrosion Rate ↓

• There is threshold temperature for forming FeCO3 layer (scaling3

temperature), which below this temperature FeCO3 layer doesn’t

formed.

• Below scaling temperature (i.e. 65oC), the uniform corrosion rate

increases with temperature.

• Above scaling temperature protective films are formed more easily

during increasing temperature. Corrosion Rate ↓
