%X More aggressive reservoir conditions, such as higher concentrations of CO2 corrosive gases, have a massive effect on corrosion. Moreover, additional aqueous species, such as organic acids, have complicated the conditions and enhanced corrosion to the maximum rate. This study investigates and screens three commercial corrosion inhibitors on their performance in mitigating corrosion at welded areas of carbon steel in high CO2 conditions with the presence of organic acids. These investigations were conducted via chemical elucidations to study the functional groups present in the compounds that affect the inhibition performance and the electrochemical measurements to evaluate the inhibition activities and efficiency of these commercial inhibitors under extreme conditions of high CO2 and organic acids. The results indicated that only CT5727 and CT17906 gave a high inhibition efficiency of 90 in the absence and presence of organic acid, with CT5727 giving the lowest corrosion rate of 0.038 mmpy in the absence of organic acid, while CT17906 gave the lowest corrosion rate of 1.00 mmpy in organic acid condition. On the other hand, D4305 gave the worst inhibition performance under both conditions. The elucidation of these inhibitors also found that specific functional groups such as hydroxy, carboxylic acid, alkyl and alkene presence in the structure were believed to affect the inhibition performance of these commercial inhibitors in mitigating corrosion. These could be used as a future reference for the new development of corrosion inhibitors in similar conditions. © 2023, Semarak Ilmu Publishing. All rights reserved.
