Cover Story: The spontaneous deposition of elemental sulfur (S8) caused the serious pitting corrosion of L360 pipelines steel during transport of “sour gas”. The hydrolysis of S8 at low temperature strengthened the environmental difference (especially pH value) under deposition of S8, besides crevice corrosion, resulting in the different corrosion behavior. Based on the combination of the localized corrosion intensity index (LCII) and morphology features, a novel model was proposed to better explain the pitting corrosion mechanisms of L360 pipelines steel under deposition of S8, especially the non-uniform deposition of S8.
