Double hydrophilic block copolymer on surfaces for wells or pipelines to reduce scale

摘要

Methods or systems of protecting a surface of a metallic body against scale formation in a well or pipeline are provided. The methods include the steps of: coating a coating material onto the surface of the metallic body, wherein the coating material includes a double hydrophilic block copolymer; and positioning the metallic body in a wellbore of a well or to form a portion of a pipeline.
