Abstract

The effect of elemental sulfur on the corrosion of carbon steel at high temperature and pressure was quantified in an aqueous environment containing sour gas. Elemental sulfur accelerated corrosion of the steel. The attack occurred predominantly in the vicinity of sulfur particles in direct contact with the metal surface. Imidazoline-based inhibitors were ineffective in controlling accelerated localized attack.
