Abstract

A method and system for corrosion control and scale control in water supply for injection, including specifying a corrosion inhibitor for squeeze treatment of a water supply well, specifying a scale inhibitor that can form a complex with the corrosion inhibitor, pumping the corrosion inhibitor and the scale inhibitor through a wellbore of the water supply well into an aquifer in a subterranean formation, forming the complex of the corrosion inhibitor and the scale inhibitor, and pumping water from the water supply well to an injection well for injection, the water including the scale inhibitor released from the complex in the aquifer and the corrosion inhibitor released from the complex in the aquifer.
