Corrosion rates at the top and bottom of the pipe have been measured in wet gas multiphase flow at carbon dioxide partial pressures of 0.46 MPa and temperatures of 40 C and 60 C in a high pressure 10-cm diameter system.Gas velocities up to 30 m/s and liquid velocities up to 0.5 m/s were used.The liquid consisted of a mixture of de-ionized water and low viscosity oil at two water cuts of 80% and 40%,and carbon dioxide was used in the gas phase.Corrosion inhibition studies were carried out at 50 ppm and 100 ppm dosage levels.The inhibitor used was an oleic imidazoline active compound dissolved in isopropyl alcohol and water.
