Customer Testimony:
"I have attached a picture of your anode that was in one of our ESP production CO2 EOR wells that was in the hole for 6 months. Looks like it did its job."
"There were no signs of corrosion on the pump at all, and they did not add any corrosion inhibitor at all during the time it ran."

#7075anodizer
The RBE 7075 Anodizer lived up to it's Name
This customer installed the Anode 8-17-2020. Unfortunately the ESP motor was compromised by a protector break down.
There was no physical damage to the cable, pumping equipment or the tubing.
The Anode looks beautiful and it did exactly what it is designed to do.
The RBE 7075 Anodizer lived up to it's name the Red Band Eliminator.

7075 Anodizer Cut Away
We purchased this Sacrificial Anode back after a well had been fracked into. The video shows how the corrosion starts attacking the Sacrificial Anode immediately. The Sacrificial Anode was only in the well for three weeks prior to being fracked into.
Troubleshooting Motor Bearings
Salt Water Disposal VFD continuing to shut down. Used our thermal imaging camera to verify the source of the problem was in the bearings.
Customer needing their RBE 7075 Anodizer in a hurry.
We got you covered.

CORROSION
WHAT IS CORROSION?
There are many different types of corrosion, each of which can be classified by the cause of the metal's chemical deterioration.
Common types of corrosion:
General Attack Corrosion:
Also known as uniform attack corrosion, general attack corrosion is the most common type of corrosion and is caused by a chemical or electrochemical reaction that results in the deterioration of the entire exposed surface of a metal. Ultimately, the metal deteriorates to the point of failure.
General attack corrosion accounts for the greatest amount of metal destruction by corrosion but is considered as a safe form of corrosion, since it is predictable, manageable and often preventable.
Localized Corrosion:
Unlike general attack corrosion, localized corrosion specifically targets one area of the metal structure. Localized corrosion is classified as one of three types:
- Pitting: Pitting results when a small hole, or cavity, forms in the metal usually as a result of de-passivation of a small area. This area becomes anodic, while part of the remaining metal becomes cathodic, producing a localized galvanic reaction. The deterioration of this small area penetrates the metal and can lead to failure. This form of corrosion is often difficult to detect because it is usually relatively small and may be covered and hidden by corrosion-produced compounds.
- Crevice corrosion: Similar to pitting, crevice corrosion occurs at a specific location. This type of corrosion is often associated with a stagnant micro-environment, like those found under gaskets, washers and clamps. Acidic conditions or a depletion of oxygen in a crevice can lead to crevice corrosion.
- Filiform corrosion: Occurring under plated or painted surfaces when water breaches the coating, filiform corrosion begins at small defects in the coating and spreads to cause structural weakness.
Galvanic Corrosion:
Galvanic corrosion or dissimilar metal corrosion occurs when two different metals are located together in a corrosive electrolyte. A galvanic couple forms between the two metals, where one metal becomes the anode and the other the cathode. The anode or sacrificial metal corrodes and deteriorates faster than it would alone, while the cathode deteriorates more slowly than it would otherwise.
Three conditions must exist for galvanic corrosion to occur:
- Electrochemically dissimilar metals must be present
- The metals must be in electrical contact
- The metals must be exposed to an electrolyte
Environmental Cracking:
Environmental cracking is a corrosion process that can result from a combination of environmental conditions affecting the metal. Chemical, temperature and stress-related conditions can result in the following types of environmental corrosion:
- Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC)
- Corrosion fatigue
- Hydrogen-induced cracking
- Liquid metal embrittlement
Flow-Assisted Corrosion (FAC):
Flow-assisted corrosion or flow-accelerated corrosion results when a protective layer of oxide on a metal surface is dissolved or removed by water thus exposing the underlying metal to further corrosion and deterioration.
- Erosion-assisted corrosion
- Impingement
- Cavitation
Intergranular Corrosion
Intergranular corrosion is a chemical or electrochemical attack on the grain boundaries of a metal. It often occurs due to impurities in the metal which tend to be present in higher concentration near grain boundaries. These boundaries can be more vulnerable to corrosion than the bulk of the metal.
De-Alloying:
De-alloying or selective leaching is the selective corrosion of a specific element in an alloy. The most common type of de-alloying is de-zincification of unstable brass. The result of corrosion in such cases is a deteriorated and porous copper.
Fretting Corrosion:
Fretting corrosion occurs as a result of repeated wearing, weight and/or vibration on an uneven, rough surface. Corrosion, resulting in pits and grooves, occurs on the surface. Fretting corrosion is often found in rotation and impact machinery, bolted assemblies and bearings, as well as to surfaces exposed to vibration during transportation.
High-Temperature Corrosion:
Fuels used in gas turbines, diesel engines and other machinery which contain vanadium or sulfates. Can, during combustion, form compounds with a low melting point. These compounds are very corrosive towards metal alloys normally resistant to high temperatures and corrosion, including stainless steel.
High-temperature corrosion can also be caused by high-temperature oxidization, sulfidation, and carbonization.
