  • Process for assessing inhibition of petroleum corrosion
    Patent number: 7127959
    Abstract: The present invention is an apparatus for simulating corrosion activity in liquid and vapor/condensate corrosion environments. The apparatus includes a container, including a lower region containing the liquid and an upper region, including a condenser, a heater for providing heat to the lower region such that the liquid is maintained at a given temperature, a vacuum pump for providing a partial vacuum at a given pressure in the upper region of the container, one corrosion probe removably positioned in the liquid, and a second corrosion probe removably positioned above the liquid.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 21, 2005
    Date of Patent: October 31, 2006
    Assignee: ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company
    Inventors: Saul C. Blum, Guido Sartori, Winston K. Robbins, Liza Monette, Andreas Vogel, Mohsen S. Yeganeh
