A method of preventing or mitigating corrosion on a metallic surface exposed to a supercritical fluid is disclosed. The method includes adding a corrosion inhibitor composition to a supercritical fluid comprising a supercritical carbon dioxide; and contacting the supercritical fluid with a metallic surface, wherein the corrosion inhibitor composition comprises a corrosion inhibitor that has a solubility of greater than 5,000 ppm in the supercritical fluid at 48.9 C. and 2,200 psi.

Aspects described herein generally relate to a method of coating a metallic surface. The method includes forming a solution including a corrosion inhibitor having one or more thiol moieties and a hydroxide. The metallic surface is coated with the solution to form a treated metallic surface. The treated metallic surface is further coated with an organosilane, an acid, and a metal alkoxide to form a coating system.

Methods for reducing, inhibiting or preventing both corrosion and metal wear inhibition of metal surfaces used in recovery, transportation, refining or storage of a hydrocarbon fluids are provided.

Corrosion inhibiting compositions and methods of inhibiting corrosion on a metal surface commonly used in the petroleum industry is disclosed.

Disclosed herein are sulfur-functional corrosion inhibitors that are adducts of a cyclic anhydride with 2-mercaptoethanol. Concentrates of the sulfur-functional corrosion inhibitors do not degrade to form H.sub.2S under standard storage conditions for a period of up to 5 years. Also disclosed herein are treated water sources and treated metal containments including one or more sulfur-functional corrosion inhibitors. The sulfur-functional corrosion inhibitors inhibit corrosion of metal containments contacted with one or more water sources, wherein the one or more water sources comprise one or more corrodents. The sulfur-functional corrosion inhibitors are as effective or more effective at inhibiting corrosion than conventional sulfur-based corrosion inhibitors when compared on a weight or a volume basis.
