Many experimental studies have indicated that the addition of H2S on the order of 10-1mbar to a CO2 saturated environment can dramatically decrease the corrosion rate atvarious temperatures. This is likely due to the formation of a very thin layer of iron sulfide(FeS). In this research, the trend in corrosion rate of X65 steel at various H2Sconcentrations below 100 ppm (0.1 mbar) in CO2 at 1 bar total pressure and at varioustemperatures was studied. Corrosion rate was measured in situ using linear polarizationresistance (LPR) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). It was observedthat at 30°C, 0.5 ppm H2S (0.0005 mbar pH2S) had no effect on the corrosion ratecompared to that seen in pure CO2 conditions, whereas 5 ppm H2S (0.005 mbar pH2S)was able to significantly decrease the corrosion rate. At 80°C, a noticeable decrease wasseen at 100 ppm, which was the highest concentration tested. The lack of a decrease incorrosion rate at 0.5 ppm at 30°C is likely due to the low concentration of H2S moleculesavailable leading to a slowing in the formation of the protective FeS layer. At 80°C, thecorrosion rate is significantly higher leading to the necessity of increased H2Sconcentrations to form the FeS layer fast enough to see a decrease in the corrosion rate.
Mild steel specimens (API 5L X65) were pretreated to form a pyrrhotite layer on the surface using high temperature sulfidation in oil, then exposed to a range of aqueous CO2 and H2S corrosion environments, leading to initiation of localized corrosion.

Corrosion performance of 3%Cr steel in CO2 and CO2-H2S environments was investigated using high temperature and high pressure autoclave. Corrosion scales were characterized by x-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy.
