NORSOK M-506 Corrosion Rate Model, Rev. 2, June 2005
Continue Exit Information
The NORSOK M-506 corrosion rate model calculates the CO2 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.

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.

ABOUT THE NORSOK M-506 CORROSION RATE CALCULATION MODEL
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.
As options and support functions, it is possible to calculate several of the main input parameters by selecting optional dialogue boxes. Such options are:
SheetHelp
* 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.
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 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
SheetHelp

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.

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 FUGACITY
The CO2 fugacity will be calculated based on given temperature, pressure and given amount of 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.
