Maintaining the integrity of oilfield equipment is essential to its safe operation and to maximize the efficiency of production. The integrity of oilfield equipment can rely on material selection and control of conditions, however, it is commonly maintained by the applications of chemical corrosion inhibitors (CI). Prior to use, these chemicals must be shown to perform as desired under the field conditions in question. To achieve this, chemicals are often evaluated using robust laboratory-based screening studies to identify potential candidates.

In order to successfully select an effective corrosion inhibitor, it is important to make a thorough assessment during a chemical qualification process. To efficiently make a selection, screening tests are generally performed prior to more complex field representative tests.

These screening tests can however misrepresent the performance of an inhibitor which would otherwise be deselected. One potential cause of this is the presence of minor, low concentration components in corrosion inhibitor formulations, commonly referred to as “additives”.

To illustrate this effect, a series of case scenarios and generic corrosion inhibitor tests will be presented, including standard low shear ambient tests, and also higher shear tests. These tests will demonstrate the impact additives can have on screening test results.
The examples show that relatively minor changes in formulated inhibitor chemistry can have a significant impact on the chemical performance and alter product rankings, and therefore affect the selection process.

The work will provide conclusions and recommendations on the best design of a screening program that reduces such test artefacts, and allows for easier interpretation of data. Along with comments that will be provided on the potential impacts this would have in the field.

The drive towards renewable energy, requirement for reduction in fossil fuel consumption and emission of carbon dioxide has received substantial attention from governments and researchers worldwide during the last few decades [1]. The exploration of renewable sources of energy has been grouped into wind, geothermal, tidal and solar energy. Solar energy has shown great promise due to the abundant amount of energy reaching the Earth [2, 3]. Electricity generation from solar irradiation can be achieved by photovoltaic (PV) and photothermal conversion [4].

High strength low alloy (HSLA) steels are preferred for oil and gas pipelines due to their outstanding mechanical properties. Sulfide stress cracking (SSC) has been a major problem for the application of HSLA carbon steel because of the wet H2S environment which commonly presents in oil and gas industry. Several techniques are applied to the study of SSC of steels, including constant load test with smooth specimens and DCB testing.

Proper surface preparation to create sufficient adhesion of a coating over the substrate is fundamentally important in the long-life performance of a protective coating. Abrasive blast cleaning provides a fast and well-established method of surface preparation, which utilizes energy generated by an air supply to deliver a mass of abrasive particles at certain speeds and volumes to impact the steel resulting in a cleaned surface. The method not only cleans the surface to remove rust, scale, paint, and similar contaminations, but also roughens the surface to produce mechanical and chemical adhesion for a coating. Therefore, abrasive blasting is the preferred method for preparing steel for the application of high-performance coatings and routinely used for achieving the required surface conditions prior to a coating work.
