Cathodic protection combined with organic coating is the normal way to protect structures exposed to seawater against corrosion. The oil and gas industry is moving to deeper waters with pipelines and production systems located on the sea bottom, often far away from shore. Seawater temperature down to -10C is occurring in these deep waters. This paper presents results from carbon steel specimens polarized in the range -800 - -1100 mV SCE in natural seawater at temperature 00C for periods up to 8 weeks. Results from short term exposure of specimens at 70C are also included for comparison. Current density values will be presented. In addition the composition of calcareous deposits on the surface will be described.

Keywords: Cathodic protection, cold seawater, current density, calcareous deposit, arctic regions
