Abstract
gcothermal installations the in the difficulties in the of corrosion of carbon steel well casings, scaling and due essentially to the of the fluids In ordcr to optimize anticorrosion in wells. various corrosion inhibitors were tested Using techniques (monitnring circuit potential as a function mcasurcmcnt of rates from plots, polarisation and impedance], inhibitors and compared according to their efficiency in reducing carbon stccl corrosion rate in a rcal gcothcrmal environment
