There is an increasing demand from oil and gas industry to ensure the integrity of assets and the enviroment in the critical conditions found in presalt wells. This study evaluates new formulations of corrosion inhibitors with different types and alkoxylation degrees of nitrogen‐based inhibitors to assess corrosion behavior of carbon steel (API X65). For these studies, corrosion rates were determined through measurements of weight loss and linear polarization resistance (LPR). In the case of electrochemical measurements, experiments were carried out in a laminar flow and in a turbulent flow regime. All data were collected in the presence of CO2 and CO2/H2S mixtures. The results revealed that corrosion protection of carbon steel critically depends on the nitrogen‐based inhibitor's alkoxylation type and degree as well as the condition to which they are exposed. It was possible to notice that an ethoxylated amine whose inhibition efficiency in the presence of CO2 was about 10%, when exposed to H2S environment at the same temperature showed an efficiency of 86%. It was also observed that the inhibitor with a higher ethoxylation degree presented better efficiencies than the one with a lower degree. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
