Abstract
The electroless nickel-phosphorus (NiP) coatings have been used with great success in oil production equipment and accessories, such as pipes, valves, pumps, adapters, rings, connectors and various types of special tools. In the acidification or acid stimulation of oil wells, to increase their productivity, a hydrochloric acid (HCl) solution is preferably injected from concentrations of 5 to 28%, aiming at the dissolution of a reservoir rock constituted of limestone and dolomite. In addition, the HCl solutions are also used to remove lime scale adhering to carbon steel pipes, where propargyl alcohol as a corrosion inhibitor, has shown good anticorrosion protection. The aim of this work is centred on the laboratory evaluation of NiP coating in 5% and 10 % HCl solution, and addition of propargyl alcohol as a corrosion inhibitor. The mass loss and polarisation curves proved to be very promising with propargyl alcohol as a corrosion inhibitor.
