English Abstract

Disclosed are methods for inhibiting the corrosion of metal containments such as carbon-steel pipes used in oil recovery processes, the methods comprising adding urine and/or compositions comprising urine to water sources to form corrosion inhibitor compositions, and contacting metal containments with the corrosion inhibitor compositions. The water sources are for example aqueous solutions that are corrosive to metal containments such as carbon-steel pipes. Compositions comprising urine that provide reduced corrosion or corrosion inhibition are also described. Metal containment assemblages comprising corrosion inhibitor compositions and a metal containment are also described.

What is claimed is:

1. A method of inhibiting corrosion comprising:
applying a corrosion inhibitor comprising urine to produced water to produce
a corrosion inhibitor composition; and
contacting a metal containment comprising carbon steel with the corrosion
inhibitor composition,
wherein the urine is selected from the group consisting of animal urine,
synthetic urine, and any combination thereof, and
wherein the carbon steel comprises 0.1 wt% to 2.1 wt% of carbon.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein the urine is human urine.
3. The method of claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the concentration of urine solids
in the
corrosion inhibitor composition is 0.1 to 10000 ppm by weight.
4. The method of any one of claims 1-3, wherein the metal containment
comprises a
pipe, a tank, or a device,
wherein the device is selected from the group consisting of a valve, a tap, a
pressure
gauge, a flowmeter, and a pump.

CORROSION INHIBITOR COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF USING SAME
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention generally relates to methods and compositions for
corrosion
inhibition for use in the oil and gas exploration, recovery, and processing
industries. More
specifically, the invention relates to methods of producing corrosion
inhibitor compositions
by applying urine to a water source and methods of inhibiting corrosion by
contacting a
corrosion inhibitor comprising urine to metal containment.
BACKGROUND
[0002] Aqueous liquids are injected into the earth and/or recovered from the
earth during
subterranean hydrocarbon recovery processes such as hydraulic fracturing
(fracking) and
tertiary oil recovery. In one or more such processes, an aqueous liquid called
an "injectate" is
injected into a subterranean formation. Injectates include water and entrained
solids and/or
solvents therein. In one or more such processes a water source called
"produced water" is
recovered, i.e. flows back from the subterranean formation and is collected.
Produced water
includes one or more of injectate, connate (native water present in the
subterranean formation
along with the hydrocarbon), sea water, and minor (< 5 wt.%) amounts of
hydrocarbon
products, which are hydrocarbon liquids or solids entrained (dispersed,
emulsified, or
dissolved) in the produced water. In embodiments, one or more of the injectate
and the
produced water includes "corrodents" such as salts and/or other dissolved
solids, liquids, or
gasses that cause, accelerate, or promote corrosion of metal containments such
as metal
pipelines used to transport the water sources toward, into, out of, or away
from a subterranean
formation, metal tanks used to hold the water sources for a period of time,
and/or other metal
equipment that contacts the water sources before, during, or after injection
or production.
Non-limiting examples of such corrodents are hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide,
oxygen,
sodium chloride, calcium chloride, and/or sulfur dioxide. As a result, almost
all operators in
the oil and gas industry employ corrosion inhibitors to reduce internal
corrosion in metal
containments which are contacted by aqueous liquids containing corrodents.
[0003] In some cases, a blend of two or more corrosion inhibitors is deployed,
for example as
components of a mixture designed for a particular hydrocarbon recovery
process. In some
cases the one or more corrosion inhibitors are added to an injectate and/or
produced water
along with additives such as polymers, surfactants, scale inhibitors, paraffin
inhibitors, metal
complexing agents, and the like. Such corrosion inhibitors are beneficial in
that they permit
1

CA 03021971 2018-10-23
WO 2017/189528
PCT/US2017/029336
the use of carbon steel components rather than the much more expensive high
nickel, cobalt,
and chromium alloys or other materials either more expensive than carbon steel
and/or which
inherently entail other disadvantages in suitability for the purpose of liquid
containment.
Corrosion inhibitors are added to the liquids and dissolved gasses which come
into contact
with metal surfaces and such inhibitors prevent, retard, delay, reverse,
and/or otherwise
inhibit the corrosion of metal surfaces such as carbon-steel metal surfaces.
While highly
desirable for this purpose, their use entails additional cost for the
operator.
[0004] In embodiments, produced water is reused as injectate. If such
injectate contains
corrosion inhibitor, some of the corrosion inhibitor remains in the ground,
some is returned as
part of the produced water, or both. Some synthetic chemicals used as
corrosion inhibitors
have further disadvantages such as toxicity or deleterious environmental
effects. If such
corrosion inhibitors are injected and can remain in the ground, it is
advantageous to minimize
pollution by using a corrosion inhibitor with low toxicity to humans and/or
other fauna or
flora. It is a further advantage if the corrosion inhibitor is biodegradable.
It is a further
advantage if corrosion inhibitor compositions comprising a corrosion inhibitor
can be
discharged into an existing sewer system without special means being employed
at the sewer
to remove or treat the corrosion inhibitor. Therefore there is a need for a
relatively low-cost,
biodegradable corrosion inhibitor of low toxicity which can readily be
obtained in large
amounts inexpensively and can be discharged into the sewerage system where it
can be
processed with normal available means.
SUMMARY
[0005] Disclosed herein is a method comprising: applying a corrosion inhibitor
comprising
urine to a water source to produce a corrosion inhibitor composition; and
contacting a metal
containment with the corrosion inhibitor composition. In embodiments the metal
containment comprises carbon steel. In embodiments, the water source comprises
produced
water. In embodiments, the urine is animal urine, synthetic urine, or
combinations thereof.
In embodiments, the urine is human urine. In embodiments, the metal
containment comprises
a pipe, a tank, or a device. In embodiments, the water source comprises,
consists of, or
consists essentially of water and hydrogen sulfide; water and carbon dioxide;
or water,
hydrogen sulfide, and carbon dioxide. In embodiments, the water source is
saturated with
carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, or both carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide.
In
embodiments, the method further comprises transporting the corrosion inhibitor
or a
2

PCT/US2017/029336
composition comprising the corrosion inhibitor from a wastewater-treatment
plant to a
location proximal to the water source. In embodiments, the corrosion inhibitor
comprising
urine further comprises a biocide.

EXAMPLES
Example 1
[0096] One brine/hydrocarbon mixture (Liquid Mix A) was made up:
Liquid mix A: A brine was made by dissolving approximately 13,000 ppm sodium,
100 ppm
potassium, 200 ppm magnesium, 100 ppm calcium, 20,000 chloride, 300 ppm
bicarbonate
and 200 ppm sulfate in distilled/deionized water. 200 ml of a low aromatic
hydrocarbon,
LVT-200 was added to 800 ml of the aforementioned brine in a 1 L glass vessel.
The oxygen
of the mixture was reduced to <10 ppb with carbon dioxide whilst the fluid
temperature was
maintained at 80 C. A continuous bubbling of carbon dioxide was maintained
throughout the
38

CA 03021971 2018-10-23
WO 2017/189528
PCT/US2017/029336
test whilst the fluids were gently stirred using a 2 inch long magnetic stir
bar rotating at 100
rpm.
Example 2
[0097] All corrosion rates specified herein were measured by the linear
polarization
resistance (LPR) method using a Gamry Potentiometer (available from Gantry
Instruments,
734 Louis Drive, Warminster, PA 18974, United States of America).
[0098] Two metal electrodes of carbon steel C1018, were pre-corroded in
contact with the
brine phase of Liquid Mix A for 6 and 4.5 hours respectively in separate
vessels, vessel 1 and
vessel 2, at 80 C. The corrosion rate of both electrodes was electrochemically
measured
approximately every 0.25 hours. The peak corrosion rate of electrode 1 was
about 268 mils
per year (mpy). The peak corrosion rate of electrode 2 was about 242 mpy.
Example 3
[0099] After about 6 hours of pre-corrosion 100 ppm of urine was injected into
vessel 1 of
solution A at 80 C containing electrode 1. Electrode 1 was continuously
immersed in
Solution A with the injected urine at 80 C and corroded for a further 19 hours
and corrosion
rate measured approximately every 0.25 hours.
Example 4
[0100] After about 6 hours of pre-corrosion 1,000 ppm by volume of urine was
injected into
vessel 2 of Solution A at 80 C containing electrode 2. Electrode 2 was
continuously
immersed in solution A with the injected urine at 80 C and corroded for a
further 20.5 hours
and corrosion rate measured approximately every 0.25 hours. Plots of corrosion
rate versus
time are given for electrodes 1 and 2 in Figure 1. Electrode 1, immersed in
Solution A for 6
hours prior to injection of 100 ppm urine for a further 19 hours showed a
reduction from a
blank corrosion rate (previous peak corrosion rate) of about 268 mpy to about
129 mpy,
equating to about a 52% corrosion inhibition. Electrode 2, immersed in
Solution A for 6
hours prior to injection of 1000 ppm urine by volume for a further 20.5 hours
showed a
reduction from a blank corrosion rate (previous peak corrosion rate) of about
242 mpy to
about 25 mpy, equating to about a 90% corrosion inhibition.
