Protecting assets and environment from the effects of corrosion
Corrosion effects our society on a daily basis causing degradation and damage to oil & gas installations, household appliances, automobiles, airplanes, highway bridges, buildings, power production and distribution systems and much more. The cost of corrosion and the damage it causes is astronomical.
In the recent years, industry has witnessed tremendous expansion in underground metallic structures such as pipelines, well casings, storage facilities and communication cables. As the number of underground structures increased corrosion problems increased likewise raising the cost of repairs and replacements to immense proportions. This led to a great demand for corrosion mitigations measures. There are many methods of corrosion prevention but the most cost effective and widely used method is cathodic protection.
