Corrosion of carbon steel in the presence of oilfield deposit and thiosulphate-reducing bacteria in CO2 environment

The effect of thiosulphate reducing bacteria (TRB) on the corrosion of carbon steel covered by a complex oilfield deposit has been assessed in CO 2 -containing seawater at 55 °C. TRB were found to significantly accelerate localized corrosion at deposited steels. This effect of TRB on under-deposit...
