How can I calculate the necessary thrust to keep a satellite of 1 kg mass in orbit, for a Delta-V of 2 m/s, knowing that the correction force must be done once a month for 900 seconds?

If you mean that you need to get 2 m/s delta-v by thrusting for a period of 900 seconds, it's very straightforward to ask Wolfram Alpha:

Very nice! Apparently 1 newton is equal to 101.97162129779 pond I'd never seen that unit before. – uhoh Jul 27 '20 at 22:34
