HydroHib P Corrosion Inhibitor

Prevents corrosion in production, processing, and transportation facilities

APPLICATIONS Schlumberger supplies specialty chemicals that combat a wide variety of corrosion problems in oil,
■■ Corrosion control in gas, and water systems. HydroHib P* corrosion inhibitor combines a surfactant, cationic,
●● Downhole tubing filming-amine corrosion inhibitor and an oxygen scavenger for use in freshwater as well as natural
●● Production facilities and synthetic oilfield brine.
●● Oil and gas pipelines
HydroHib P inhibitor controls corrosion from saltwater caused by CO2, inorganic salts, dissolved
ADVANTAGES oxygen, and H2S contamination from sour fluids or bacterial action. Using HydroHib P inhibitor
■■ Overall integrity maintained by preventing is recommended for saltwater packer fluids, saltwater drilling fluids, and other liquids that come
corrosion on casing, tubing, and into contact with hydrocarbon-producing formations.
surface equipment
Benzyl quaternary ammonium chloride, one chemical component of the HydroHib P inhibitor formula,
■■ Protective film formed on metal surfaces has several functions:
■■ Custom-formulated organic compounds ■■ As a surfactant, it increases the dispersion of filming amines and aids in metal surface wetting
■■ Long active life of up to 2 years and penetration.
■■ Extensive global track record ■■ As a corrosion inhibitor, it aids in the neutralization of the corrosive acids in hydrostatic
or completion fluids.
■■ In other applications, it has been used as a bactericide, algaecide, and microbiocide in cooling
towers, production fluids, and completion fluids.†

Applied at 500 ppm in fresh- or saltwater, the chemical is effective for 1 to 2 years, as demonstrated
by its use in hundreds of pipeline hydrostatic test projects around the world.

HydroHib P inhibitor forms a chemical solution with all natural and synthetic oilfield brines.
