I am looking at a wet gas pipeline with a small quantitiy of C02 in the gas composition (1 to 2 % mol). The pipeline pressure is in the rage of 5 to 10 bars.
I think I remember, from a long time ago, about a rule of thumb which states that, below a certain value of partial pressure of CO2, the reactions between the CO2 and the water can be regarded as insufficient to initiate any significant internal corrosion.
Am I talking rubbish ?
If not, can anybody throw some more light on this rule of thumb (what is the threshold value of the partial pressure)?
