Dears,
I have a question about possible mitigations and corrosion control for this steam I modeled on ECE. A 4" pipe is used to transport sour gas from HP compressor discharge KO drum (Dry Gas) to a water well to left water to a degassing vessel. Is it possible to use CS with 3.2 mm corrosion allowance for 20 year design for the pipe?
H2S Mole% 0.5
CO2 Mole% 9.8
Gas flow rate: 1.1 MMSCF
Crude Flow rate: 0
Water Flow rate: 0 but ECE can only take 0.1 Sm3/d as a minimum input.
Pipe size: 4"
Temp: 72 C
Pressure: 500 psig
Cl-: 50 ppm
The pitting rate is coming 15 MPY which is a very high value. I believe this is caused by the low water speed in a 4" pipe. But now water will condense in the pipe as the pipe is also electrically traced to prevent any condensations. Can we justify the use of bare CS in this case?
