Abstract Processing of corrosive, flammable and toxic produced fluids is a major hazard on geothermal installations. Acidic carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide gasses when dissolved in produced water can give rise significant corrosive damage unless their action is monitored, controlled and managed. Corrosion problems in the geothermal industry can be eliminating and predicting for production, processing and plant facilities which area of interest in design, installation, operation and maintenance. This paper proposes to give a clear understanding of management and operational aspects for the geothermal industries on corrosion problem, with the goal is to be achieved through and industry wide improvement in corrosion management practices based on Corrosion Management Technology. Corrosion Management Technology has a progressive framework that is compatible with the requirements of risk and safety management system concerned with ensuring the integrity of operating and processing equipments. Furthermore, as the integrity management process also covers other integrity risks and causes of failure and damage that may occurred hazards. The policy that will be made provides a structured framework for identification of risks associated with corrosion, and the development performance operating system including corrective actions with the target are optimization and efficiency in geothermal industry.
