- Filming Amine Blend
- Batch Treatment
Product Use
High film persistent, batch type corrosion inhibitor designed to control corrosion in oil production systems.
Description
RIM-102 is a corrosion inhibitor to control corrosion in oil production, formulated as a unique blend of filming amines and surfactants in an aromatic base solvent. This product has limited solubility in oil and water. This inhibitor forms a very persistent corrosion inhibitor film on downhole equipment, flow lines and most other oil handling equipment. This corrosion inhibitor inhibits corrosion caused by oilfield brines, organic acids, carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide.
Typical Physical Properties
| Form @ 20°C (68°F) | Dark brown liquid |
| Density @ 20°C (68°F) | 0.88 - 0.95 kg/L |
| Flash Point TCC | > 10°C (50°F) |
| Solubility in Oil | Dispersible |
Application Method
This inhibitor should be batched into the crude oil production well, dispersed in water or clean hydrocarbon. The quantity of corrosion inhibitor required to control corrosion is dependent on the well depth, water cut and production. Circulation of the well may be performed to displace the corrosion inhibitor to the bottom of the well.
To treat crude oil flow lines and gas gathering lines, this type of inhibitor should be dispersed in clean hydrocarbon (for example, diesel) at a ratio of 1 part corrosion inhibitor to 1 to 8 parts hydrocarbon. Ideally, the mixture should be displaced down the lines between pigs.
