This chapter explores corrosion monitoring in process units, beginning with major refinery units such as crude distillation and amine units. In the future, additional units and industries will be added progressively. The Corrosion Monitoring in Specific Industries and Monitoring Technologies sections emphasize the practical application of corrosion monitoring, addressing field challenges, benefits, and implementation issues, while intentionally avoiding theoretical details that are readily available elsewhere.
In the subsequent section, a repository is provided, detailing a wide array of industries. Each industry is divided into specific processes/units/areas, accompanied by a brief description, offering readers essential insights into its operations and corrosion challenges. Furthermore, it is supplemented with relevant links to specific damage modes and calculation tools.
Corrosion in the oil and gas industry arises from the complex interaction of various corrosive agents, including hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), carbon dioxide (CO₂), chlorides, oxygen, and water within production systems. This chapter provides a detailed analysis of the primary damage mechanisms, categorized into sweet, sour, and oxygen corrosion. Additionally, it will address other critical damage mechanisms, such as microbiologically influenced corrosion and cracking phenomena. Each section will delve into the fundamental principles behind these corrosion mechanisms, along with the mitigation strategies, predictive methodologies, and calculation tools that are essential for effectively managing corrosion risks.
Damage mechanism refers to mechanical, physical, chemical, or any other process that leads to the degradation of materials or equipment over time.
