Abstract
This study investigates sweet corrosion mitigation methods focusing on the efficacy of inhibitors. Specifically, it examines the performance of two types of inhibitors: water-soluble and oil-soluble. Utilising a Rotating Cylinder Electrode (RCE) setup, turbulence is induced in saline solutions to assess the impact of inhibitors on the corrosion of carbon steel. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) is employed to analyse corrosion degradation patterns and material damage mechanisms. Given the prevalent use of inhibitor injection in the oil sector, it is crucial to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of various inhibitors to recommend optimal options and further studies. The findings contribute to advancing corrosion mitigation strategies, providing insights into the performance of inhibitors in flow environments and aiding in the development of more effective corrosion control measures for carbon steel structures. The inhibitors under study are sourced from local oil company vendors. With a projected duration of six months and a total budget of KD 9850, this investigation aims to provide valuable insights into corrosion mitigation strategies
