... downhole which can potentially cause microbiologically induced corrosion (MIC) damage. While corrosion failures of tubing material due to acid gases etc., are quite well documented in the literature, instances of proven downhole MIC failures are rare. During recent field trials for downhole corrosion...

... ABSTRACT Microorganisms can influence the corrosion of metallic materials through a phenomenon known as microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). MIC can increase corrosion rates of metallic alloys in corrosive environments, e.g., salt-water corrosion in marine infrastructure, thereby...

...-8700 Horsens, Denmark ABSTRACT Studies in microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) have reported on the effects of pre- corrosion surface deposits on the localized pitting which occurs on metals. But due to the complexity and heterogeneity of these deposits, which include biofilms, it is necessary...

... ABSTRACT Macro and microbiological growth can have significant impacts on safe and efficient operations in oil & gas applications, especially in water injection and underground storage systems. Operators must provide protection against both chemical and microbial corrosion to protect...

... ABSTRACT Microorganisms are notorious for being involved in serious metal infrastructure damage, popularly known as microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). Long term corrosion incubations (~2 years) with carbon steel (CS) beads were established using produced water collected from...

... ABSTRACT Cooling systems are prone to many corrosion deterioration mechanisms, one of which is Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC). Microbes are ubiquitous, they have been implicated in many major failures, and their control measures have a high economic impact on the oil and gas...

..., including the need for cathodic protection, tight bonded coating and polyethylene encasement for ductile iron pipe. While polyethylene encasements are commonly used for protection of ductile iron pipe, there is a concern about microbiological influenced (MIC) corrosion mechanism beneath loosely-bonded...

... results showed that the pipeline suffered external corrosion due to general corrosion and microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). Identification of MIC as a corrosion threat was not consistent with previous operation and field findings for this pipeline. After confirming these results with several...

... ABSTRACT Uncertainties are present about the mechanisms of cathodic protection (CP) and its effectiveness to limit or completely stop Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC). The goal of this research was to improve the understanding of the mechanisms of CP by determining...

... polyethylene rotationally Microbiologically antimicrobial additive Houston manuscript ABSTRACT Two types of corrosion cause the majority of problems in offshore or seawater applications; aqueous corrosion and microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). Aqueous corrosion results from...

... ABSTRACT Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) in the marine environment has caused a serious threat to the safety of marine materials. The corrosion rate of MIC is usually much faster than the general corrosion process. The 2304 duplex stainless steel (DSS) is an excellent alternative...

... Abstract Recently, more and more reports indicated that microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) severely influences the safety of petroleum installations and marine infrastructures. Conventional MIC mitigation methods are physical scrubbing, coatings, and biological or biocide treatments...

... Abstract Seventy percent of the Australian water pipeline network, predominately critical transmissions mains, is constructed of ferrous materials which are highly susceptible to corrosion, particularly microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC), when buried in soil. A novel technique...

... Abstract Refining industry cooling systems are prone to many different corrosion deterioration mechanisms, one of which is Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC). Bacteria are ubiquitous, they have been implicated in a number of major failures and their control measures have a high...

.... Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) causes development of localized attack and internal channeling corrosion, which pose a challenge to the long term integrity of pipelines. MIC risk assessment requires a monitoring program to determine numbers and activity of sulfate-reducing prokaryotes and methanogens...
