This study examines inhibitor corrosion control performance of batch applied corrosion inhibitors, on a series of laboratory screening protocols simulating worst case oil field production environments, challenging applied film to protect subsurface carbon steel production equipment when transferring corrosive, CO2 flood enhanced oil production, to surface pipelines. The study challenged various types of chemical corrosion control technologies in protecting carbon steel surfaces exposed to corrosion environments, simulating the downhole production conditions the sucker rods, tubing and casing equipment is exposed to before and after CO2 breakthrough.
