erosion criteria
(OP)
I'm working on a gas production project. When could you consider a fluid as erosive? What is the criteria?

RE: erosion criteria
Typically during channel stability (in the case of erosion) the shear stress would be evaluated based on the velocity, surface cover, type of soil, liner, etc. and compared to the published data for the soil type. Based on this information, you would be able to predict the conditions at which erosion would occur.
Are you referring to soil erosion?
RE: erosion criteria
Pressure pipe flow and/or gravity pipe flow could also be erosive.
If you could provide some additional details it would be helpful for the forum to aid in answering your question.
