The corrosion mechanism of X65 carbon steel was evaluated in water environment by increasing CO2 partial pressure from 1 bar at 24 °C to 110 bar at 40 °C, reaching conditions that include water saturated with supercritical CO2.
The corrosion mechanism of X65 carbon steel was evaluated in water environment by increasing CO2 partial pressure from 1 bar at 24 °C to 110 bar at 40 °C, reaching conditions that include water saturated with supercritical CO2. To perform this kind of investigation, the experimental tests were conducted only with CO2, eliminating any other influence of anions present in the solution. Electrochemical impedance measurements and weight loss tests were performed at pH 4, monitored within the whole experiment time. In addition, optical and confocal microscopy analyses were carried out to assess the carbon steel specimens after the immersion tests. The gravimetric results indicated that the corrosive process was not accelerated by increasing the pressure in H2O-CO2 systems. Concerning CO2 participation in the iron dissolution mechanism, electrochemical impedance results did not evidence a direct reaction of CO2 on the free iron surface, even when exposed to water saturated with supercritical CO2. If CO2 has any influence in the anodic mechanism, it must be detect by further experiments, however it certainly will not act directly on the free iron surface.
Key words: CO2 corrosion, supercritical CO2, H2O-CO2 systems, electrochemical impedance.
Experiments were carried out in a 7.5L autoclave with two combinations of CO2 partial pressure and temperature and different H2S concentrations. Corrosion behavior of specimens was evaluated using electrochemical measurements and surface analytical techniques.

The NORSOK M-506 is an empirical model based on experiments undertaken in a single phase water flow loop. The data is from experiments with low content of iron ions in the water phase, and the model is thus regarded to give a fair representation of the maximum corrosion rate in a CO2 corrosion controlled system.
The literature has been reviewed with respect to information gained in the recent 20 years on CO2 corrosion of materials used in the oil and gas industry. The paper discusses the effect of materials related, medium-related and interface-related parameters on general (uniform) and localized corrosion. Part II
