According to the materials of report at the meeting of the Presidium of NAS of Ukraine, October 27, 2021

Abstract

The actuality of the corrosion problem and corrosion protection of metal structures and industrial equipment in Ukraine is shown. The results obtained by institutions of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, institutions of higher education and accredited laboratories that do research in this area are indicated. It is noted that PJSC “Ukrnafta” and “Ukrinstalcon” LLC take a responsible approach to corrosion protection of equipment and metal structures. The state of corrosion monitoring investigation, development of new corrosion inhibitors from eco-friendly materials, studying of hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide corrosion in oil and gas production, etc. is considered. The role of Interdepartmental Scientific and Technical Council on Corrosion and Corrosion Protection of Metals in highlighting the main problems and priority areas of investigations on this issue is shown.
