NORSOK M-506
CO2 CORROSION RATE MODEL
The NORSOK M-506 corrosion rate model calculates the CO 2 corrosion rate
on basis of given temperature, pH, CO2 partial pressure and shear stress.
The model is valid for temperature 5 - 150 C, pH 3.5 - 6.5,
CO2 partial pressure 0.1 - 10 bar and shear stress 1 - 150 Pa.
The model is not applicable when the H2S partial pressure is higher than 0.5 bar,
or when the ratio between the partial pressure of CO2 and H2S is less than 20.
The model can lead to underprediction of the corrosion rate when the total content
of organic acids exceeds 100 ppm and the CO2 partial pressure is less than 0.5 bar.

This computer program is developed based on the corrosion rate model given as
equations in this Standard. The corrosion rate equations given in NORSOK M-506
describe the formal model which shall apply, while the computer program itself is an
optional aid which the users of the model may apply such that they possess an
efficient tool to conduct corrosion rate calculations and parameter studies.
It is an overall principle for the use of this program that the program is an aid in CO2
corrosion rate assessments, but that the user of the program is responsible for the
results and the final material selections. Therefore the user of the program must
perform a critical evaluation of all results and the applicability of these in each case
and in each system/part of a system.
As the computer program is distributed electronically and may be used on computers and
program versions outside the control of NTS/NORSOK, users of the computer program
are sole responsible to verify that the computer calculations are in accordance with the
equations in this standard.
The CO2 corrosion rate calculation program shall only be used by experienced
material engineers.
The program covers only calculation of corrosion rates where CO2 is the corrosive
agent. It does not include additional effects of other constituents which may influence
the corrosivity, e.g. contamination of O2, H2S etc. If such constituents are present,
which is common in e.g. produced water systems, these effects must be evaluated
separately.
The model is valid for temperature 5 - 150 C, pH 3.5 - 6.5, CO2 partial pressure
0.1 - 10 bar and shear stress 1 - 150 Pa. The model is not applicable when the H2S
partial pressure is higher than 0.5 bar, or when the ratio between the partial pressure
of CO2 and H2S is less than 20. The model can lead to underprediction of the
corrosion rate when the total content of organic acids exceeds 100 ppm and the CO2
partial pressure is less than 0.5 bar.
Design principles for material selection and the philosophies which shall apply are
given in NORSOK standard M-001 "Material Selection". The requirements in
NORSOK M-001 shall always apply, and shall be used when generating input data
and when interpreting results from this CO2 corrosion rate calculation program. It is
important to note that the program may use or generate data which are outside the
limits of NORSOK M-001. One example is corrosion inhibitor efficiency, where
NORSOK M-001 provides maximum allowable values, while this program accepts all
values from 0 to 100%. In case of conflict, NORSOK M-001 shall apply.
The computer program has a main dialogue box, denoted as the "Main Menu",
where all corrosion rate calculations can be performed. All input parameters can be
entered into the program directly at this stage for point calculations.
Page 32
SheetHelp
As options and support functions, it is possible to calculate several of the main input
parameters by selecting optional dialogue boxes. Such options are:
*
*
*
pH calculations
shear stress calculations
humidity calculations for gas systems
These program routines are included in order to make the material selection
specialist able to generate adequate input data for corrosion rate prediction based on
data normally presented in process flow diagrams and design basis documents. The
support program routines are prepared to give adequate accuracy for corrosion rate
calculations, and shall not be used for other purposes, e.g. genuine process, scale or
flow calculations.
The program is explained in more detail in NORSOK Standard M-506.
It is important that your computer uses a period as a decimal separator. The program
will not be able to calculate correctly if other symbols are used as decimal separator.
The decimal separator can be changed from the option called International or
Regional and Language Options in the control panel.
Minimum screen resolution must be 600x800.
The current version of the model is Revision 2, issued in June 2005.
It supersedes Revision 1, issued in May 1998. Major changes from Revision 1 are
extension of the lower temperature limit from 20 to 5 C and improved correlations for
pH calculation at high pressure and high ionic strength.
Please note that whilst every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the
NORSOK standards neither OLF nor TBL or any of their members will assume
liability for any use thereof.

INPUT PARAMETERS
PROJECT, EQUIPMENT, IDENTIFIER AND COMMENT
The project name, equipment, identifier and any comments can be given. These
names can be saved together with other data when the save buttons are pressed.
TEMPERATURE
Allowed range is from 5 C to 150 C. The temperature can be given in C or F.
TOTAL PRESSURE
Allowed range is from 1 bar to 1000 bar. The total pressure can be given in bar or psi.
The total pressure must be higher then the CO2 partial pressure.
TOTAL MASS FLOW
Allowed range is from 0.001 to 1000000 kmole/h. The total mass flow is required to
calculate the CO2 partial pressure when the amount of CO2 is given in kmole/h. The
total mass flow will therefore only be shown in the menu when kmole/h is chosen as
the unit for the CO2 amount.
CO2
Allowed range for the fugacity of CO2 is from 0.1 to 10 bar, but the CO2 pressure
can not be higher than the given total pressure. Due to lack of data points at fugacities
below 0.3 bar, the calculation is uncertain at CO2 fugacities below 0.3 bar.
The amount of CO2 can be given in bar, psi, mole% or kmole/h. It is possible to specify
either the CO2 partial pressure or the CO2 fugacity by using the option called
"Use as input: CO2 pressure or CO2 fugacity".
SHEAR STRESS
Allowed range is from 1 to 150 Pa.
pH
Allowed range: 3.5 to 6.5.
GLYCOL CONCENTRATION
The glycol concentration is given in percent. Allowed range is from 0 to 100 %. If you
don't want any glycol effect on the calculation of the corrosion rate, just enter 0 % of
glycol.
INHIBITOR EFFICIENCY
The effect of inhibitor is given in percent. Allowed range is from 0 to 100 %. The
inhibitor efficiency equals the value of the corrosion rate adjusted for the inhibitor
effect divided with the corrosion rate without any inhibitor effect multiplied with 100. If
no inhibitor effect on the calculation of the corrosion rate is desired, enter 0 %
inhibitor efficiency.
RESULTS
Page 36
SheetHelp
FUGACITY
The CO2 fugacity will be calculated based on given temperature, pressure and given
amount of CO2.
GLYCOL CORRECTION FACTOR
The glycol correction factor will be calculated based on the given glycol
concentration. The glycol correction factor equals the value of the corrosion rate
adjusted for the effect of glycol divided with the corrosion rate without any glycol
effect.
CORROSION RATE WITHOUT GLYCOL OR INHIBITOR EFFECT
The calculated corrosion rate without any correction factors will be shown when the
button called "Calculate corrosion rate" is pressed.
CORROSION RATE WITH GLYCOL OR INHIBITOR EFFECT
The calculated corrosion rate with correction factor will be shown when the button
called "Calculate corrosion rate" is pressed. If the effect of inhibitor is higher than the
effect of glycol, the corrosion rate with only the inhibitor effect will be shown. If the
effect of glycol is higher than the effect of inhibitor, the corrosion rate with only the
glycol effect will be shown. If there is no effect of glycol or inhibitor, only the corrosion
rate without any correction factors will be shown.

INPUT PARAMETERS
PROJECT, EQUIPMENT, IDENTIFIER AND COMMENT
The project name, equipment, identifier and any comments can be given. These
Page 38
SheetHelp
names can be saved together with other data when the save buttons are pressed.
TEMPERATURE
Allowed range is from 5 C to 150 . The temperature can be given in C or F.
TOTAL PRESSURE
Allowed range is from 1 bar to 1000 bar. The total pressure can be given in bar or psi.
LIQUID VELOCITY / LIQUID FLOW
Allowed range is from 0 to 20 m/s. The liquid flow rate can be given as liquid
superficial velocity (unit m/s) or liquid flow (unit Sm3/day). Press the unit button to
switch between these units. Superficial liquid velocity equals the actual liquid velocity
multiplied with the liquid volume fraction.
GAS VELOCITY / GAS FLOW
Allowed range is from 0 to 40 m/s. The gas flow rate can be given as gas superficial
velocity (unit m/s) or gas flow (unit millions of Sm3/day). Press the unit button to
switch between these units. Superficial gas velocity equals the actual gas velocity
multiplied with the liquid volume fraction.
WATERCUT
Allowed range is from 0 to 100 %. The watercut gives the amount of water in the
liquid phase.
DIAMETER
The diameter can be any positive number. The calculation of shear stress is requires
turbulent flow. This means that the diameter and the flow velocities must be given values
that results in a Reynold number above 2300.
DENSITY
The allowed ranges for the density of water, oil and gas are:
995 to 1050 kg/m3 for water density,
600 to 1100 kg/m3 for oil density,
1 to 1700 kg/m3 for gas density.
VISCOSITY
The allowed ranges for the viscosity of water, oil and gas are:
0.17 to 1.1 cp for water viscosity,
0.2 to 200 cp for oil viscosity,
0.02 to 0.06 cp for gas viscosity.
The viscosity of water, oil and gas can be given in cp (centipoise) or N*s/m2.
ROUGHNESS
Allowed range for the roughness of the steel is 0 to 100 m.
COMPRESSIBILITY
Allowed range is from 0.8 to 1. The compressibility gives the deviation from ideal
gas.
SPECIFIC GRAVITY
Page 39
SheetHelp
Allowed range is from 0.5 to 1.
INVERSION POINT
Allowed range is from 0.3 to 0.9. The inversion point is the watercut that gives the
maximum liquid viscosity.
MAXIMUM RELATIVE LIQUID VISCOSITY
Allowed range is from 1 to 100. This number gives the ratio between the liquid
viscosity at the inversion point and the viscosity of pure oil.
RESULTS
SHEAR STRESS
The shear stress will be calculated on basis of the given input values.
LIQUID VISCOSITY
The liquid viscosity will be calculated on basis of given input values. The liquid
viscosity will only be shown if the button called "Expert input" is pressed and all the
input parameters are shown in the flow menu.

PARAMETERS
LINE NUMBER
Allowed range is from 1 to 50. The line number specifies the actual line in the table.
If the button called "Insert line" is pressed, the data will be inserted in the line with
the specified line number. If the button called "Delete line" is pressed, the data in the
specified line number will be deleted.
DATE
Both start date and end date must be specified for each line with data. Dates are
entered as month (three letters) - year (four numbers). Example: Feb-1998.
OTHER PARAMETERS
See help on main menu.
UNITS
It is not possible to change the units in the Accumulated corrosion menu. The units
will be the same as in the Main menu.

THE pH MENU
OPTIONS
UNITS
Press the unit buttons to change the unit of bicarbonate, ionic strength, temperature,
pressure and amount of CO2.
CALCULATE
Press this button to calculate the pH.
CONDENSED / FORMATION WATER
Choose condensed water or formation water. If conduced water is chosen both the
bicarbonate concentration and the ionic strength will be set to 0 g/l.
OK
Press this button to get back to the main menu and use the calculated pH in the
model.
CANCEL
Press this button to get back to the main menu without using the calculated pH. All
the values in this menu will be restored.
PRINT
Press this button to print the input and output values.
SAVE IN NEW FILE
Press this button to save the input and output values in a separate Excel file. The
data can either be saved in a new Excel file or a previous saved file can be loaded
and then the saved data will be added to this file.
SAVE IN CURRENT FILE
Press this button to save the input and output values in the same file that has been
used for saving values before. Values for the same parameters that have been
saved in this file before will be saved.
SHOW CURRENT FILE
Press this button to see the data that has been saved in the current file.
INPUT PARAMETERS
PROJECT, EQUIPMENT, IDENTIFIER AND COMMENT
The project name, equipment, identifier and any comments can be given. These
names can be saved together with other data when the save buttons are pressed. It
is not necessary to enter any text to these parameters.
TEMPERATURE
Allowed range is from 5 C to 150 C. The temperature can be given in C or F.
TOTAL PRESSURE
Page 47
SheetHelp
Allowed range is from given CO2 partial pressure to 1000 bar. if the CO2 partial pressure
is below 1 bar, the minimum total pressure is 1 bar. The total pressure can be given in bar
or psi.
TOTAL MASS FLOW
Allowed range is from 0.001 to 1000000 kmole/h. The total mass flow is required to
calculate the CO2 partial pressure when the amount of CO2 is given in kmole/h. The
total mass flow will therefore only be shown in the menu when kmole/h is chosen as
the unit for the CO2 amount.
CO2
Allowed range for the fugacity of CO2 is from 0 to 50 bar, but the CO2 pressure
can not be higher than the given total pressure. It is possible to specify either the CO2
partial pressure or the CO2 fugacity by using the option called "Use as input: CO2
pressure or CO2 fugacity" in the main menu. The amount of CO2 can also be given
in either bar, psi, mole% or kmole/h.
BICARBONATE
Allowed range is from 0 to 20000 mg/l. The concentration of bicarbonate can be
given in mg/l or molar. The molecular weight of bicarbonate (HCO3-) is 61.02 g/mole.
This means that 1 M bicarbonate equals 61.02 g bicarbonate/l.
IONIC STRENGTH
Allowed range is from 0 to 175 g/l. The ionic strength can be given in g/l or molar.
When the ionic strength is given in g/l it is assumed that NaCl is the dominant specie
in the solution. The molecular weight of NaCl is 58.44 g/mole. This means that an
ionic strength of 1 M equals an ionic strength of 58.44 g/l.
RESULTS
pH
The pH will be calculated on basis of the given input values.
For condensed water systems, the pH in a solution saturated with iron carbonate is
also calculated.

THE SAVE MENU
The save menu provides two different alternatives:
1. Save data in a new separate Excel file
2. Load a previous saved Excel file and add saved data to this file
If it is wanted to save data in a new separate Excel file the parameters that are
supposed to be saved must be turned on in this save menu. Click the button called
"Create new file" when the desired parameters are turned on, and then the program
will ask for the file name before the program returns to the previous shown menu.
In this case the current data will be saved as the first set of data in the new file.
If it is wanted to use a previous saved file to save new data the file can be loaded by
pressing the Load button. In such cases it has no meaning to turn on or off any
parameters in the save menu because the same parameters that have been saved
in the loaded file earlier will still be saved in this file. When a file is loaded in this way
the actual parameters will not be saved automatic. The data will only be saved by
clicking the buttons called "Save in current file" in the different menus.
Click the Cancel button to return to the previous menu without creating a new file or
loading an old file.
RETURN
Press this button to get back to the previous menu.
PRINT
Prints the data shown in the table at the screen.
ZOOM BUTTONS
Use these buttons to make the table on the screen bigger or smaller.
SCROLL BARS
Use the scroll bars to move the table up, down, left or right.
