The corrosion behavior of the J55 mild steel alloy in CO2 saturated brine have been studied by weight loss technique, potentiodynamic polarization technique and characterization of the corroded surface techniques. The results demonstrate that the corrosion solution is easy to penetrate into the matrix and activate corrosion without scale inhibitor. When the scale inhibitor content was as high as 30 mg/L, the effect of scaling products on corrosion gradually decreased. Adding the corresponding scale inhibitor in the solution was beneficial to slow down the corrosion rate and the possibility of pitting corrosion. The corrosion product film is mainly FeCO3, and with the increase of scale inhibitor contents, the density of FeCO3 was stronger and compact, which could greatly prevent the contact between the medium and the matrix..
