Abstract. Two corrosion inhibitors (CI) were evaluated to study the protection behaviours of three carbon steels: X52, X60, and X70 in an oilfield produced water. The water was subjected to unstirred condition and a rotation speed of 600 rpm to simulate a stagnant and homogeneous solutions, respectively, it is in pipelines at temperature range of 30 °C to 60 °C. The internal corrosion rate and inhibition efficiencies were measured using polarization curves and gravimetric tests, complimented with the surface analysis of the corroded carbon steel samples using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The experimental results suggested that the chlorides compounds, H2S, metals, and the inhibitor type modified the corrosion rate of the carbon steels under study. High corrosion rates were achieved on X70 steel at the temperature of 30 °C and 50 °C under 600 rpm. It was determined that X52 steel had the highest corrosion rate at 60 °C and 600 rpm. While an adequate protection of X70 steel was confirmed with a high inhibition efficiency using a naphthenic imidazoline as corrosion inhibitor.
Resumen. Se evaluaron dos inhibidores de corrosión para estudiar los comportamientos de protección de tres aceros al carbono: X52, X60 y X70 en agua congénita. El agua se sometió a condiciones sin agitación y una velocidad de rotación de 600 rpm para simular soluciones estancadas y homogéneas, respectivamente, el cual se encuentra en tanques de almacenamiento y tuberías en un rango de temperatura de 30 °C a 60 °C. La velocidad de corrosión interna y los valores de las eficiencias a la inhibición se determinaron mediante curvas de polarización y pruebas gravimétricas, las que fueron complementadas con el análisis de la superficie de las muestras de acero al carbono corroídas mediante microscopía electrónica de barrido. Los resultados experimentales sugirieron que los compuestos de cloruros, H2S, metales y el tipo de inhibidor, modificaron la velocidad de corrosión de los aceros al carbono en estudio. Altos valores de corrosión en acero X70 fueron alcanzados a la temperatura de 30 °C y 50 °C usando 600 rpm. Se determinó que el acero X52 tuvo la velocidad de corrosión más alta a 60 °C y 600 rpm. Mientras que se confirmó una protección adecuada del acero X70 con una alta eficiencia de inhibición usando imidazolina nafténica como inhibidor de corrosión.
