The continuous improvement process for corrosion inhibitor development requires an active program of testing new and/or novel chemistries. The original process for field testing prospective corrosion inhibitors required 36 days for each different product and utilized standard electrical resistance probe monitoring to determine inhibitor performance. The new process utilizes enhanced electrical resistance monitoring that allows the same testing to occur in four days, while providing higher quality data. The net benefits of the new process include shortened test times, increased number of inhibitors evaluated, reduced test inhibitor volume and an increase in data quality and quantity. These benefits together, have increased the probability of identifying corrosion inhibitors that offer significant cost-performance improvements.
