In the production of oil and gas, corrosion inhibitor (CI) is usually dosed into multiphase flows (oil/water/gas). The partitioning behavior of CI among the different phases is a critical factor for a successful application. Unreliable measurement of CI residuals can lead to inaccurate dosing, overtreatment, and higher operating costs.

The partitioning behavior of corrosion inhibitor (CI) among different phases is a critical factor for successful application on carbon steel. Unreliable measurement of CI residuals can lead to inaccurate dosing, overtreatment, and higher operating costs. However, obtaining a reliable and accurate measurement of CI residuals can be problematic for both operators and CI suppliers. Traditional residual techniques usually involve complicated and tedious analytical procedures. These procedures may require dedicated benchtop instruments, which utilize a centralized laboratory to perform the analysis. Recently, a novel residual technique was developed based on a proprietary nanotechnology-based spectroscopy technique. The new technique involves a handheld instrument and allows rapid and accurate measurement of CI residuals in the water phase. In the current laboratory study, this technique was applied to build a model of the partitioning of a water-soluble CI between the oil and water phases at different water cuts. It was found that the CI partitioned in the water phase preferentially in all water cuts. A higher amount of CI partitioned in the water phase with decreasing water cut. The result of the study was a CI partitioning model to be used as guidance for CI dosage in the field.

Once polymers are used reliably in a specific service, they become the material of choice due to their cost effectiveness. However, to choose and apply polymers dependably, one must consider their unique properties – they are different from the metals we use industrially. Through various examples of damaged and failed parts, this paper illustrates fundamental information about choosing, using, and keeping polymers in service. Polymers are subject to permeation, oxidation, aging, fatigue, installation damage, and other damage.

The service life of current offshore platform coatings are normally less than 10 years. It is very expensive ($100/ft2) to rehabilitate the offshore platform coatings in the field. Therefore, facility owners are very anxious to select the long-life coatings. The candidate coatings are normally tested in the lab following the ISO 12944-91 or the AMPP TM216122 standard.

Atomic hydrogen can enter metallic microstructures from deposition processes like Cr plating or phosphatizing, chemical and electrochemical pickling treatments, during welding operations if the humidity of consumables is too high, by cathodic processes resulting from corrosion phenomena or contact with high pressure gaseous hydrogen. According to different chemical-physical mechanisms, atomic hydrogen can enter the metallic structure resulting in damages of various forms, such as HIC (hydrogen induced cracking), SOHIC (stress oriented HIC), delayed fracture and hydrogen embrittlement (HE).
