20、ent. The use of chemical corrosion inhibitors has proved to be a cost-effective approach to minimize corrosion damage and to extend the life of the downhole equipment. This standard addresses corrosion control for atmospheric conditions and downhole environments, treatment procedures, inhibitor sele

21、ction, and evaluation of corrosion inhibitor programs. Other factors to control failure of sucker-rod strings are addressed in API RP 11BR. 1.2 Corrosion inhibitors fall into many chemical classes that may be physical or health hazards. The handling precautions recommended by the manufacturer in the

22、 material safety data sheet (MSDS) shall be followed. In all cases, protection of the environment shall be considered. 1.3 In all operations discussed in this standard, corrosion inhibition is enhanced when sucker rod and coupling surfaces are free of scales and deposits. 1.4 Care should be taken to

23、 prevent air entry into the well to avoid oxygen-accelerated corrosion. Air entry can occur if casing vents are left open to the atmosphere or if the wellhead seals do not hold a vacuum. _ Section 2: Atmospheric Corrosion Control During Transportation and Storage 2.1 A hydrocarbon-removable coating

24、(HRC)(3) such as atmospheric corrosion inhibitor or a temporary protective coating should be used to prevent corrosion damage to sucker rods before they are placed in service. This coating should be applied before transportation of the sucker rods and should be maintained during storage. HRC can als

25、o be used to minimize atmospheric corrosion during field service of the sucker rods. 2.2 The manufacturer should provide sucker rods and couplings free of mill scale and with a suitable HRC applied to all exposed surfaces. The HRC should be adequate to provide protection against corrosion for a mini

26、mum of one year under humid atmospheric conditions at the storage site.(4) Acceptable HRCs shall be readily removable using hydrocarbon solvents. HRCs that do not obscure manufacturer markings are preferred. 2.3 The vendor, supplier, or agent shall inspect shipments and warehouse stocks of sucker ro

27、ds and couplings for visible signs of physical damage and corrosive attack. The vendor also shall take necessary action to clean rust spots and repair damage to the HRC. 2.4 The purchaser should inspect sucker rods and couplings upon receipt for physical damage and corrosion attack. The purchaser sh

28、ould also make periodic inspections of the sucker rods and couplings and maintain the HRC integrity during storage. 2.5 Used sucker rods that are stored for future service should be cleaned and coated for protection against atmospheric corrosion. Corrosion protection for less than one year can be ob

29、tained by dipping or spraying the rods and couplings with a suitable HRC. However, storage for more than one year requires the use of HRC similar to those recommended in Paragraph 2.2. _ Section 3: Well Servicing 3.1 Sucker rods should be protected after removal from the well during well-servicing o

30、perations. This is especially important in areas where hydrogen sulfide (H2S), carbon dioxide (CO2), or both are produced. However, the corrosion damage may frequently be caused by atmospheric oxidation. In some cases, protection from atmospheric oxidation can be achieved by pumping oil with a high

31、concentration of corrosion inhibitor into the tubing immediately before the rods are pulled. Alternatively, the rods may be coated with a mixture of oil and corrosion inhibitor after the rods are laid down. 3.2 Failures in threaded connections because of improper makeup or corrosion fatigue can occu

32、r when well fluids enter the couplings during pumping. Corrosion inhibitor should be applied during sucker-rod connection makeup to minimize corrosion inside the coupling. The couplings and pin ends can be dipped, brushed, or sprayed with a mixture of oil-soluble, film-forming corrosion inhibitor in

33、 refined oil or with inhibited grease.3 Sealants, such as thread dope, which contain a high level of solids, should not be used for sucker-rod threads. The _ (3) For the purposes of this standard, HRC refers to a material that is removed from the sucker-rod surface because it is soluble in produced

34、hydrocarbon. The material is not necessarily formulated in a hydrocarbon solvent. SP0195-2007 2 NACE International procedure for selecting an inhibitor can be found in NACE Standard MR0174.4 The sucker-rod manufacturer may be consulted for assistance in selecting commercial lubricants. Use of too mu

35、ch inhibitor-oil mix in the coupling cavity interferes with proper makeup. The procedure for proper makeup of sucker rods is found in API RP 11BR. Proper circumferential displacement develops sufficient sealing force at the shoulders, which tends to exclude well fluids from the threads. 3.3 When a n

36、ew rod string is run or each time the rods are pulled and rerun, the corrosion inhibitor film should be established (or reestablished) on downhole equipment. The rods should be examined for physical and corrosion damage each time they are run. 3.3.1 To provide initial protection to rods during and f

37、ollowing installation, one approach is to add an oil-soluble corrosion inhibitor mixture (19 to 38 L 5 to 10 gal U.S. of chemical in diesel or lease crude) to the tubing before running the rods (or to the casing before running tubing and rods). As the rods pass through this inhibitor mixture, a prot

38、ective film is applied. If there is no packer, additional benefit may be obtained from the inhibitor by circulating one tubing volume of fluid into the annulus before the well is returned to production. 3.3.2 An alternate initial treating practice is to add 19 to 38 L (5 to 10 gal U.S.) of inhibitor

39、 to the casing/tubing annulus and circulate the well to displace the annular volume before beginning production to the battery. 3.4 After the well is placed back on production, the selected treatment program should be resumed. _ Section 4: Downhole Corrosion Inhibition 4.1 There are many corrosion-i

40、nhibiting products and application techniques that are effective in protecting downhole production equipment. Selection of a particular method should be based on the specific application and the economics of the treatment program. These economic evaluations should consider the effectiveness of the t

41、reatment program as it relates to equipment replacement frequency and lost production. 4.2 Batch-and-Flush Treatment 4.2.1 The batch-and-flush treatment is most widely used for rod-pumped wells. Normally in this technique, an oil-soluble, water-dispersible corrosion inhibitor is injected into the we

42、ll annulus and flushed down to the fluid level. The flush fluids may be chemically oxygen-scavenged produced brine, chemically oxygen-scavenged fresh water, crude oil from a treater truck, or produced fluids bypassed from the wells flowline. Water-soluble inhibitors are generally less film-persisten

43、t than oil-soluble inhibitors, and therefore are normally not recommended for the batch-and-flush treatment. 4.2.2 Specific design of a treatment program (i.e., inhibitor selection, inhibitor dosage, treatment frequency) should include considerations such as oil/water ratio, fluid corrosiveness, flu

44、id level above the pump, and rod loading. Inhibitor selection is covered in Section 5. Typical inhibitor dosage and frequency are as follows: 4.2.2.1 One common practice for selecting inhibitor dosage for the initial program is to use an inhibitor concentration that is equal to 25 ppmv(5) based on t

45、he total fluid production between treatments. A minimum inhibitor volume of 4 L (1 gal U.S.) per treatment should be used. For example, a well producing 64 m3/d (400 barrels of fluid per day BFPD) would require about 11 L (3 gal U.S.) of inhibitor per week. 4.2.2.2 Treatment frequency usually varies

46、 with the well production rate. Typical treatment frequencies are every other week for wells producing less than 16 m3/d (100 BFPD), weekly for wells producing 16 to 48 m3/d (100 to 300 BFPD), and twice weekly for wells producing 48 to 80 m3/d (300 to 500 BFPD). When the total produced fluid is more

47、 than 80 m3/d (500 BFPD), some operators consider continuous treatments. 4.2.2.3 Adjustments in dosage and frequency to optimize treatment effectiveness should be based on corrosion-monitoring results (see Section 6 on Evaluation of Inhibitor Programs). 4.2.3. Flush volumes are often calculated based on well depth and annular pumping fluid level.5 For example, in low-fluid-level wells (less than 150 m 500 ft above the pump), typical flush volumes are 80 to 160 L (0.5 to 1.0 bbl) of flush (produced water or oil) per 300 m (1,000 ft) of well depth
