“…“Black powder” is composed mostly of iron oxides, iron hydroxides and siderite, and contains impurities such as elemental sulphur, hydrocarbons, metal fragments, sand, and dust. “Black Powder” is also considered as corrosive to gas pipeline materials (AlAbbas et al., ; Staniszewska, Kunicka‐Styczyńska, & Ziemiński, ). Double the amount of oxygen was found in the sediment from the M‐2 gas pipeline compared to that from the non‐working pipeline.…”

“…It has been estimated that approximately 40% of all corrosion cases in industry are of biological origin (Jan‐Roblero et al., ; Rajasekar, Anandkumar, Maruthamuthu, Ting, & Rahman, ). Damage due to biological corrosion is responsible for up to 20%–30% of total costs of service, predominantly because of the corrosion of gas pipelines (AlAbbas et al., ).…”

This study provides a deep modern insight into the phylogenetic diversity among bacterial consortia found in working and nonworking high‐methane natural gas pipelines located in Poland. The working pipeline was characterized by lower biodiversity (140–154 bacterial genera from 22 to 23 classes, depending on the source of the debris) in comparison to the off‐gas pipeline (169 bacterial genera from 23 classes). The sediment recovered from the working pipeline contained mostly DNA identified as belonging to the phylum Firmicutes (66.4%–45.9% operational taxonomic units [OTUs]), predominantly Bacillus (41.4%–31.1% OTUs) followed by Lysinibacillus (2.6%–1.5% OTUs) and Clostridium (2.4%–1.8% OTUs). In the nonworking pipeline, Proteobacteria (46.8% OTUs) and Cyanobacteria (27.8% OTUs) were dominant. Over 30% of the Proteobacteria sequences showed homologies to Gammaproteobacteria, with Pseudomonas (7.1%), Enhydrobacter (2.1%), Stenotrophomonas (0.5%), and Haempohilus (0.4%) among the others. Differences were noted in terms of the chemical compositions of deposits originating from the working and nonworking gas pipelines. The deposits from the nonworking gas pipeline contained iron, as well as carbon (42.58%), sulphur (15.27%), and oxygen (15.32%). This composition can be linked to both the quantity and type of the resident microorganisms. The presence of a considerable amount of silicon (17.42%), and of aluminum, potassium, calcium, and magnesium at detectable levels, may likewise affect the metabolic activity of the resident consortia in the working gas pipeline. All the analyzed sediments included both bacteria known for causing and intensifying corrosion (e.g., Pseudomonas, Desulfovibrio, Shewanella, Serratia) and bacteria that can protect the surface of pipelines against deterioration (e.g., Bacillus). Biocorrosion is not related to a single mechanism or one species of microorganism, but results from the multidirectional activity of multiple microbial communities. The analysis presented here of the state of the microbiome in a gas pipeline during the real gas transport is a particularly valuable element of this work.

“…SRB, total anaerobic, acid-producing aerobic and anaerobic bacteria were also present in the produced water. SRB are the main causes of microbiologically-induced corrosion in the operating systems of the oil industry 12,25 . Iron-precipitating bacteria were not detected in the produced water, probably due to the low cell concentration or because the counting method was limited.…”

Corrosion Behavior of API 5L X80 Steel in the Produced Water of Onshore Oil Recovery Facilities

et al. 2017

High-strength low-alloy steel is used in pipelines, which transport oil/gas and also produced water in the process of the secondary recovery of oil. This paper investigates the corrosion of X80 steel after immersion in static systems (biotic and abiotic). The corrosion rate, the corrosion morphology and the hardness of the coupons were investigated. The corrosion products were determined by SEM/EDS and XRD. The corrosion rates of the coupons in the biotic system were moderate and had an agressive pit morphology, while those of the coupons in the abiotic system were low with less aggressive pit. The hardness of the coupons after exposure to the systems of produced water was not changed compared with that of the control coupons. The corrosion products formed in the biotic system were Fe(OH) 3 , Fe(OH) 2 , FeOOH, Fe 3 O 4 , FeS 2 , FeCl 3 , and in the abiotic system, NaCl, CaCl 2 and SrSO 4 . BaSO 4 and CaCO 3 were identified in both systems.

“…Keadaan ini berlaku melalui interaksi elektrostatik molekul amonium kuaterner pada permukaan membran luar SRB. Umumnya membran sel SRB adalah bercas negatif (Alabbas et al 2012). Kewujudan kumpulan berfungsi hidrofilik dengan cas positif pada struktur amonium kuaterner menyebabkan berlakunya interaksi elektrostatik antara molekul ini dengan permukaan membran sel SRB yang boleh mengganggu proses metabolik pada sitoplasma sel dan seterusnya memusnahkan ketelapan membran sel SRB berkenaan (Badawi et al 2010).…”

Perlindungan Biokakisan Keluli Karbon akibat Bakteria Penurun Sulfat yang Dipencil daripada Minyak Mentah Tropika

Ancaman biokakisan akibat aktiviti bakteria penurun sulfat (SRB) PENGENALANProses pemindahan minyak mentah kerap dilakukan melalui sistem saluran paip keluli yang terdedah kepada pelbagai persekitaran, termasuk laluan di bawah tanah dan air laut. Keadaan ini telah mengundang pelbagai masalah kakisan pada kedua-dua permukaan luaran dan dalaman paip (Al-Jaroudi et al. 2011). Untuk itu, langkah pengurusan dan pengawalan kakisan dengan menggunakan kaedah seperti saduran cat, perlindungan katodik dan perencat kakisan telah digunakan. Namun kehadiran perbagai mikrobial yang menyebabkan kakisan dalam minyak mentah terutamanya SRB telah meningkatkan lagi tahap kemusnahan bahagian dalaman paip keluli (Abdullah et al. 2014;Stipaničev et al. 2013). Keadaan ini disebabkan aktiviti semula jadi SRB yang berupaya menghasilkan ion sulfida daripada tindak balas penurunan sulfat dan lainlain ikatan sulfur seperti sulfit dan tiosulfat. Tindak balas ion-ion sulfida dengan ion hidrogen terlarut menyebabkan pembentukan sebatian berasid H 2 S yang berbahaya dan toksik. Kehadiran H 2 S bukan sahaja meningkatkan kadar kakisan keluli, malah turut menurunkan kualiti minyak mentah melalui proses pemasaman serta pemendakan
