This is a print-on-demand (POD) book that will be produced just for you in 2-5 days after your order. It should arrive at your door in about one to two weeks. However, due to supply chain and logistic challenges currently affecting the industry, it may take longer. Allow three weeks for international orders.

The Field Guide for Managing Iron Sulfide (Black Powder) within Pipelines or Processing Equipment offers practical guidance for corrosion control and operations personnel in managing black powder within their pipeline systems or processing equipment.

This book was written for new corrosion control professionals and operations personnel, who are based at production facilities. It provides straightforward, practical guidance regarding what is “black powder,” and why it may be a concern, field tests to be conducted, follow-up laboratory test that could be ordered, and an approach for using maintenance pigging, coupled with chemical treatments, to remove accumulations of “black powder.”

It begins with a discussion of what is black powder and identifies health and safety considerations associated with H₂S and the presence of black powder, identifying why there may be a concern.

The Field Guide presents field and laboratory tests typically used to identify the presence of iron sulfide, and then discusses maintenance pigging and/or chemical treatments for removing such particulates. Several case studies are also presented.

H2S Scavenger Laboratory Evaluation Based On Efficiency And Kinetics

Product Number: 51323-19316-SG

Author: Jose Vera, Zachary Berg, Nirmal Tatavalli-Mittadar, Richard Pollard

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

The H2S concentration in produced fluids sometimes increases with time due to the phenomenon known as reservoir souring. This increase in H2S poses an integrity threat to downhole and topside oil and gas production facilities due to its impact in corrosion and environmental cracking susceptibility. Its concentration in natural gas is also limited to very low levels due to sales specifications.

High-Temperature-Stable Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor for CUI

Product Number: 51324-20573-SG

Author: Ming Shen; Boris Miksic; Pavlo Solntsev

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

Corrosion under insulation (CUI) happens due to moisture egress and thermal cycling. Chemical inhibitors can be a relatively low-cost method to mitigate CUI. Inhibitors for CUI that are stable at temperatures below 175°C exist. However, many pipes have thermal cycling at temperatures higher than 175°C. When such high-temperature-operating pipes undergo idling and then experience high temperature operation again, the CUI would be more pronounced because higher temperatures entail higher corrosion rates. It would require inhibitors that are both stable at high temperatures and possess vapor phase inhibition. Presented here is a novel vapor phase corrosion inhibitor that is stable up to 662°F (350°C). The thermal stability, diffusion, and the protection of carbon steel (C1018) against chloride-containing liquid by its vapor deposit will be discussed. This inhibitor is nonflammable. It is USDA-certified biobased, and biodegradable.

Internal Corrosion Prevention During Hydrostatic Testing and Wet Layup of Pipelines: Approach and Case Study

Product Number: 51324-20594-SG

Author: Susmitha Purnima Kotu; Christopher Kagarise; Richard Bruce Eckert

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

The introduction of water and the absence of flow during hydrostatic testing or layup of pipelines can lead to internal corrosion, making corrosion control a critical concern. Various corrosion mechanisms may be active, including microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC), under deposit corrosion (UDC), and oxygen corrosion, depending on the service and operating conditions of the pipeline. Chemical treatment is typically used to control corrosion during hydrotesting or layup, but it must be targeted at the applicable corrosion mechanisms and remain effective over the duration of hydrostatic test or layup period. Additionally, the applied chemical treatment must reach metal surfaces susceptible to corrosion. This paper highlights the approach for selection of appropriate mitigation strategy for internal corrosion prevention as part of hydrostatic testing and wet layup. This paper also presents two case studies that illustrate the processes used to identify likely corrosion mechanisms and perform laboratory studies to examine the effects of various chemical mitigation solutions for hydrostatic testing and wet layup.

Pipeline-D was built in 1997 and was used to transport crude to Gas-Oil Separation Plant-1 (GOSP-1). The pipeline continued operating until it was subjected to intermittent shutdown in 2009 when GOSP-2 was built. As part of the project, 900 meters were added to connect Pipeline-D to GOSP-2.

Interpreting H2S Scavenger Laboratory Test Results Using A Kinetic Model

Product Number: 51322-17844-SGG

Author: Jose Vera

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

H₂S scavengers (SC) are commonly injected into multiphase pipelines transporting oil, water, and gas when the H₂S concentration is relatively low (ppm levels) but higher than the maximum allowable H₂S concentration in systems located downstream, due to integrity, safety or tariff limitations. Under these situations, it is expected that the H₂S scavenger injected in some points of the system (e.g., subsea) be capable of reducing the H₂S concentration before reaching certain parts of the system (e.g., topsides). In this case, the H₂S scavenger should be selected not only based on its capacity, but also on its kinetics at the expected field conditions.

Methodology to Evaluate the Performance of Liquid Scavenger Application Technologies in Gas Pipelines

Product Number: 51323-19302-SG

Author: Jose Vera, Kyle Hilgefort

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

Liquid H2S scavengers are sometimes injected into pipelines transporting wet gas to reduce the H2S concentration below allowable values before reaching certain points of the system. In these situations, the H2S scavenger injected into the pipeline should be able to reduce the H2S concentration in the gas to the target values within a given residence time.

The overall reaction kinetics when a liquid scavenger is directly injected into a wet gas pipeline can be separated in the following three steps, which have been described in previous publications:
Step 1: Transport of the liquid scavenger into the aqueous phase.
Step 2: Transport of H2S from the gas to the aqueous phases.
Step 3: Chemical reaction between the scavenger and dissolved H2S

The decomposition process of ancient marine species in the seabed for millions of years coupled with the presence of specific geological conditions such as high pressures and temperatures led to the formation of what is known today as fossil fuels. For this reason, they can be found either on the earth's surface where ancient seas were located or beneath the seabed. Considering that the ocean covers three-quarters of the Earth's surface the offshore oil and natural gas exploration entail an enormous economic and strategic benefit.¹
