Abstract
The Levantine Basin is an important area for oil and gas exploration. However, the region's high salinity and corrosive conditions significantly threaten the durability of pipelines and equipment, resulting in substantial maintenance and repair expenses. This study seeks to evaluate the environmental and industrial influences on the corrosion rates of different oil and gas streams within the Levantine Basin. This study collected and analyzed data from the Levantine Basin, including physical and chemical properties of the streams, environmental factors such as temperature, pressure, and humidity. The Larkton corrosion software was utilized to simulate and predict corrosion rates under various conditions. Findings of this experiment demonstrate the significance of temperature on corrosion rates, showing a marked increase as temperatures rise. At lower temperatures, H₂S corrosion is more prominent, whereas CO₂ corrosion becomes the dominant factor at medium to high temperatures, especially when coupled with high CO₂ concentrations.
