Calcite Formation and Inhibition Under CO2 Corrosion Environment

Metal-carbonate scales are a double-edged sword for upstream oil and gas production engineering. On one hand, many of these scales can lead to serious setbacks if untreated, such as production interruption. One common example is calcite scale deposition on production tubing.

Carbonate scales (e.g., calcite, CaCO3) and corrosion-induced scales of mild steel (e.g., siderite, FeCO3) in sweet (CO2 containing) conditions are both frequently encountered during oil and gas production. However, the interactions of steel corrosion and mineral carbonate scale formation remain unclear. In this study, a once-through flow cell apparatus was utilized to concurrently study mild steel tubing corrosion and scaling behaviors in a simulated produced water environment. The study shows that a two-layer scale structure forms on the mild steel surface. The inner layer is a carbonate solid solution, i.e., ankerite, Ca(FexMg1-x)(CO3)2. Transition toward a calcite-dominated outer layer was observed. In addition, the impacts of the corrosion-scaling interactions on conventional scale inhibition and corrosion inhibition methods are investigated.

The life-cycle of concrete structures used in waste water systems should consider all factors that might cause a structural system to perform unacceptably at any point during its lifetime. This includes the progressive and sustained loss of load capacity caused by operational or environmental factors. In general terms, deterioration can be defined as a loss of structural load capacity with time as a result of the action of external agents causing chemical attacks or material weakening due to these environmental interactions.

Traditionally, sour severity of high-pressure, high temperature (HPHT) oil and gas production wells were assessed by H2S partial pressure (PH2S): The mole fraction of H2S in the gas (yH2S) multiplied by the total pressure (PT). While PH2S is appropriate for characterizing the sour severity of wellbores operating at low total pressures (e.g., PT < 35 MPa) and/or for highly sour systems (e.g., yH2S > 1 mol%), PH2S usually over-predicts the actual sour severity of HPHT systems, leading to sub-optimal material selection options.

The goal of the Paris Agreement is to limit global warming to below 2°C, preferably 1.5°C, compared to pre-industrial levels.1 While the world is slowly transitioning to more sustainable energy sources to reach this target, one of the ways to reduce the CO2 in the atmosphere is to capture it and store it in depleted gas fields. According to the IOGP1, the total number of CCS projects in Europe is 65 in 2022.2 The aim of these projects is to store around 60 MtCO₂/yr by 2030.
