Organic corrosion inhibitors have been widely used in oil and gas wells, pipelines, gathering lines and process facilities to inhibit corrosion for quite some time. This paper describes and discusses laboratory screening test parameters and methods for evaluating and selecting corrosion inhibitors for use in downhole and pipeline corrosion inhibitions or mitigations. Field application results of the laboratory selected inhibitors are presented to illustrate the consistency of the selected inhibitor in field applications. The inhibitor adverse effect in various conditions and environments are also discussed.
