Corrosion Prevention Approach for gas and oil Refinery Tanks

Abstract

Tanks and pressurized vessels are one of the main equipments in the gas and oil refinery industry. Every petroleum industry has a lot of tanks. Gas and oil are corrosive materials, therefore the corrosion losses cost large amount of money and time every year. The severity of corrosion depends on various working parameters such as H2S level, partial pressure of CO2, temperature, chloride concentration, surface films and oxide contents.
