| Summary: | Simulated oil well water (SOWW) is conceded out by pipelines made of several alloys, for instance mild steel L80. These alloys may simulated oil well water undergo corrosion owing to presence of various aggressive ions present in SOWW. To prevent this several inhibitors have been used. Inhibition of corrosion of L80 alloy pipeline carrying simulated oil well water by succinic acid has been evaluated by electrochemical studies such as polarization study and AC impedance spectra (EIS). Polarisation study reveals that in the presence of inhibitor linear polarization resistance increases and corrosion current decreases. AC impedance spectra reveal that in presence of succinic acid, RT value increases, impedance value increases, phase angle increases and Cdl value decreases. The present study reveals that when succinic acid is added to simulated oil well water, the corrosion resistance of L80 alloy increases. It implies that succinic acid may be added to simulated oil well water flowing through pipe line made of L80 alloy. |
