Abstract
In this paper, a fractured and corroded tubing string was analyzed through macroscopic observation, chemical composition analysis, metallographic and mechanical test. The corrosion products were studied by SEM, EDS, and XRD method. The results showed that the corrosion of tubing in this well was caused by CO2 corrosion, the well contains CO2 medium and increasing water cut in the late stage of development were the main reasons of serious corrosion, the scaling on the tubing wall aggravated the corrosion. Finally, some suggestions were proposed for avoiding or slowdown this kind of corrosion failures.
