Management of Corrosion in Shale Development

In recent years production of oil and gas from shale formations has multiplied and now contributes significantly to oil and gas supply. This type of unconventional production differs from historical conventional approaches with far reaching consequences for asset integrity management.The present paper outlines corrosion threats associated with shale development including acidizing fracing flowback CO2 and H2S in produced fluids and artificial lift. Usually little detailed information about corrosive exposure is available upfront. The production mode contributes to complex and highly variable environmental conditions. Corrosion cracking and weight loss corrosion of well completion materials are known to have occurred.Whereas classical asset integrity management is usually rolled out over many years the typical timescale in shale production ranges from just months to a few years driving low-cost quick earn-back scenarios. This paper discussed the consequences for materials selection and corrosion control.
