A Statistics Approach for the Prediction of CO2 Corrosion in Mixed Acid Gases

Predicting CO2 corrosion is an important element in Corrosion Design Basis (CDB) which determines material selection and corrosion control strategies. Since CO2 corrosion is a multi species corrosion mechanism, there are numerous corrosion prediction models developed with different parameters....

description Predicting CO2 corrosion is an important element in Corrosion Design Basis (CDB) which determines material selection and corrosion control strategies. Since CO2 corrosion is a multi species corrosion mechanism, there are numerous corrosion prediction models developed with different parameters. However, most of these prediction models do not consider the combined effect of mixed gases containing CO2, H2S and acetic acid (HAc) which limits the corrosion prediction scope. This study analyzes the effects of mixed gases by using Electronic Corrosion Engineer (ECE®) corrosion prediction software combined with a Response Surface Methodology (RSM) statistical technique. ECE® prediction shows that simultaneous effects of mixed gases behave differently as compared to the individual effects. Contrast behavior was observed for H2S as an individual species and as a mixed species; corrosion rate depends on concentration level of H2S. HAc species showed a sharper increase in corrosion in a mixture than alone. This preliminary analysis of mixed gas prediction showed multiple mechanisms. Thus, complex interactions of mixed gases must be studied in more detail to obtain an accurate prediction.
