A new NACE Task Group (TG) 416, “Water Quality and Its Effect on Corrosion in Oil Sands Operations,” has recently been formed to accommodate a growing need to assist owners and operators in addressing materials selection, corrosion and other failure issues associated with water use that is unique to the oil sands industry. The objective is for industry to openly share information anonymously and bring together a state-of-the-art document that will assist all parties who deal with the unique characteristics of oil sands water at their operating facilities. The report will address operational challenges in thermal and mining oil sands operations with respect to corrosion, fouling, and scaling, and include best design practices. The current paper reviews the scope of the document and reviews the data received to date.
