Corrosion protection of large structures such us wind turbines or offshore platforms operating in corrosive seawater environment is usually provided by cathodic protection (CP) and/or protective coatings. However those methods have some limitations. Organic coatings without CP can provide protection to steel substrate only when they remain intact whereas sacrificial anodes can considerably increase the overall mass of the protected structure and have to be replaced periodically. Moreover sacrificial anodes are only effective under submerged conditions and don’t protect the structure under alternating wetting and drying condition so-called “splash zone” which is particularly corrosive environment due to constant splashing of highly aerated seawater UV radiation and increased concentration of seawater constituents during drying. Furthermore confined volume of electrolyte easy access to oxygen and atmospheric pollutant deposited on the metals’ surface lead to more severe corrosion in this region than in the submerged zone.An alternative corrosion mitigation method is application of thermally sprayed metallic coatings such as thermally sprayed aluminium (TSA). TSA affords long-term and maintenance-free protection to steel substrate in two ways. Firstly when intact it acts as a barrier to the corrosive environment and secondly it provides sacrificial protection by working as an evenly distributed anode which preserves steel in case of a damage of a coating. Moreover large operating temperature range high resistance to mechanical damage and low corrosion rate in ocean water make it a perfect corrosion prevention method for offshore applications.One of the characteristic features of thermally sprayed coatings is porosity which is filled with corrosion products when the corrosion progresses. To delay the self-corrosion of the protective coating application of sealers is recommended.In this work the behaviour of several arc-sprayed metal coatings is investigated under full artificial seawater (ASTM D1141) immersion and compared with simulated splash zone conditions under droplets of artificial seawater. Effectiveness of TSA coatings is evaluated using electrochemical techniques and corrosion products are examined. The effect of novel sealers containing nanomaterials is also assessed.

Pipeline and piping have been widely used for decades in the transportation of enormous kinds
of fluids in diverse industries (e.g. oil and gas, chemical and power industries). During the
construction phase of these pipelines, different sizes of pipes (ranging from 2" to 48" or more),
elbows and piping are welded to meet the required design criteria and mechanical properties.
With these in mind, a lot of factors must meticulously be considered to ensure that the finished
weld is suitable for use in all ramifications. This is done in accordance to set down codes and
standards to avoid the possibility of failure. Even though there has been destructive analysis
carried out on the welded joint to ascertain the required minimum mechanical properties, however
scanty numerical and non-destructive analyses are usually performed in line with the established
standards. Therefore, this paper focused on the numerical (modal analysis using ANSYS R15.0
explicit dynamic modeler) and non-destructive (TOFD: time of flight diffraction) analysis on a 4”
butt welded pipe.
The result from the numerical analysis clearly showed the effects of the discontinuities on the
welded joint where discontinuities exist as equally confirmed by the non-destructive inspection.
These parts exhibited higher stress concentration as compared to other parts that do not have
any form of discontinuities and this relates to the fact that the presence of these discontinuities
will accelerate the failure of the welded joint even though the applied stress at those points is
much lower than the yield strength of the material.
