RIM 105 corrosion inhibitor is an all purpose, water soluble organophosphorous compound. It is a passivating type of inhibitor which forms a protective film on metal surfaces to guard against corrosion attack.
Typical Physical Properties Physical appearance - Amber liquid
pH(1% solution) - 7.0 -8.5
Flash Point - >200°F (>93°C) (PMCC)
Pour Point - 10°F
Applications RIM 105 inhibitor is effective at relatively low concentrations in all water base muds. This corrosion inhibitor has proven to be particularly useful in reducing oxygen corrosion in aerated muds, low solids, no dispersed, polymer muds, and potassium muds. The product should be evenly dispersed throughout the circulating mud system and can be added either through the chemical barrel or directly to the mud pits wherever good agitation occurs. The recommended initial treatment of RIM 105 inhibitor is 2 to 4 gal/100 bbl (0.5 to 1.0 L/m3) depending on anticipated conditions, other chemicals used in the system, and the corrosive environment, te*, salinity, pH, temperature, oxygen content and acid gases. If the corrosion rate is unacceptably high, the concentration should be increased to at least 7 gal/100 bbl (1.7 L/m3). For aerated systems, an initial treatment of 12 gal/100 bbl (2.9 L/m3) is recommended. The corrosion rates should be monitored at all times with corrosion coupons and treatments should be adjusted according to their analysis. A good corrosion control program includes a thorough makeup water analysis, chemical treatments for corrosive contaminants and an adequate bacterial control for systems that contain biodegradable additives.
Product Bulletin Advantage
  • Highly effective against oxygen corrosion, the most common form of corrosion in drilling fluids
  • Does not usually require an oxygen scavenger
  • Potassium base product that is compatible with potassium base systems
  • Minimum effect on fluid rheology
  • Effective in waters from fresh to saturated salt water
  • Effective in aerated fluids such as those used in air drilling operations
  • Effective to temperatures in excess of 350°F (177°C)
Limitations
  • Less effective when the soluble calcium concentration exceeds 200 mg/L Ca++; slightly higher concentrations are required in high calcium fluids
  • Should not be used in packer fluids or other situations where the fluid will not be circulated nor on racked pipe
