The four basic elements of a corrosion cell are an anode, a cathode, and the metallic and electrolytic pathways between them. Corrosion control can be achieved by eliminating (or reducing) any of these elements. One such method is to modify the … [Continue reading]
Close-Interval Potential Surveys
Posted on July 21, 2016 · Leave a Comment
The principle of a close-interval potential survey (CIPS or CIS) is to record the pipe-to-soil (P/S) potential profile of a pipeline over its entire length by measuring potentials at intervals that do not significantly exceed the depth of the pipe … [Continue reading]
Special Cathodic Protection Requirements for Specific Pipeline Applications
Posted on July 19, 2016 · Leave a Comment
Most pipeline cathodic protection (CP) applications involve either galvanic anode or impressed current CP (ICCP) systems installed in earth for protection of external surfaces. Of the galvanic anode installations in neutral soils, magnesium is the … [Continue reading]
