Applying Machine Learning Techniques To Identify And Predict Behavior Of Rectifier And Groundbed State Change

Product Number: 51322-17833-SG

Author: Matt Barrett, Will Maize, Tony da Costa

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Impressed current rectifiers are the backbone of a pipeline operator’s cathodic protection (CP) systems. A rectifier’s ability to protect a large length of electrically continuous pipeline considerably improves efficiencies and reduces material costs as compared to galvanic systems. However, like galvanic anodes, impressed current anodes are a consumable asset, and require replacement at the end of their service life to ensure that the rectifier can continue to adequately protect the pipeline.

Assessing Coating Breakdown Factors of Silicone Rubber Thermal Insulation for Enhanced Cathodic Protection in Subsea Equipment Operations

Product Number: 51324-20350-SG

Author: Herman E Amaya; Behrang Fahimi; John Bogard

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

This study seeks to redefine coating breakdown factors for thermal insulation coatings, whose unique electrical insulation properties have been previously overlooked in DNV RP B401, resulting in potential miscalculations in anode requirements for cathodic protection systems.1 By comparing the insulation's performance with standards like DNV RP B401 and ISO 15589-2, and through testing and analysis, this study presents refined breakdown factors and insights into optimized anode placement in subsea structures like trees and manifolds.

Benefits of continuous corrosion monitoring for offshore wind structures

Product Number: 51323-19288-SG

Back in 1991 the first offshore wind asset was constructed in Denmark near the coastline from Vindeby (which means windy city). This asset comprised 11 foundations with a capacity of 0.36 MW each. Since then; the offshore wind industry has been booming, and projects are becoming bigger and bigger in size (capacity), number of foundations per site and further and further offshore.

Calcareous Deposition On Thermally Sprayed Aluminium Surfaces

Product Number: 51322-17798-SG

Author: Edgar Hornus, Francisco Vouilloz, Yu Long, Mobin Salasi, Mariano Iannuzzi, Kjetil Andersen, Ola Krosness, Mike King, Roy Johnsen

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

In the oil and gas industry, thermally sprayed aluminum (TSA) coatings are commonly used, primarily, to reduce anode demand in cathodic protection systems and impart some degree of sacrificial protection in the topsides and splash zone areas. The use of TSA coatings has advantages in systems where long service life is required. TSA coatings are also used to reduce the formation of calcareous deposits, normally a combination of CaCO₃ and Mg(OH)₂, on heat exchanger piping.

Case Studies on Application of Indirect Inspection Technology and Methodology in Municipal Water and Wastewater Systems

Product Number: 51324-21056-SG

Author: Vignesh Shankar; Emer Flounders

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

Indirect inspection surveys have successfully inspected piggable and difficult to pig buried onshore Oil and Gas steel pipelines for decades. Indirect inspection methodologies such as ACVG, DCVG, CIS, GPS, leak detection, and DOC have aided oil and gas pipeline operators to monitor the health of their assets and completing mitigation to ensure their assets are functioning as per design, standards, and code. There has been extensive continuous improvement in monitoring oil and gas pipelines using indirect inspection technology. The water and wastewater pipelines have varying pipe materials. These pipelines are not regulated and do not have extensive literature, and dedicated teams to support maintaining assets in relation to external corrosion prevention, maintenance, and monitoring. This paper focuses on the application of demonstrated indirect inspection technology and methodology in municipal water and wastewater pipelines. The paper will discuss different pipe materials: coated steel pipeline, BWP, and PCCP inspected using indirect inspection technology, and present case studies.

Case Study of Hybrid Onshore-Offshore CP Life Extension Retrofit for East Texas Facility

Product Number: 51324-20974-SG

Author: Yuxi Duan; Colette Brogna-Nichols

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

Dock components of an East Texas oil and gas facility required a cathodic protection retrofit, however the scour in the area precluded traditional bottom-laid anode approaches. A pre-existing impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) system protecting onshore assets was integrated with the offshore components to protect and extend the useful life of the associated facility docks and near-shore assets. Scour-protected bonds were used to integrate the onshore ICCP system to offshore assets, reducing the cathodic protection (CP) retrofit’s design footprint. Sacrificial anodes were installed where cable voltage drop and/or seabed scouring operations precluded bonding to the onshore ICCP system. This case study demonstrates that an ICCP-first hybrid retrofit is capable of protecting both offshore and onshore assets. The sacrificial anode cathodic protection (SACP) retrofit provided CP to remote dolphins and piles where installing bonding cables would have been impractical, given that routine scouring is expected in the area. The inspection data shows that above-ground storage tanks (ASTs), coated onshore pipelines, dock structures, both the land- and water-side bulkheads, and near-shore piles and dolphins can simultaneously meet NACE CP criteria with a properly-designed CP continuity retrofit.

Cathodic Nanocoating Technology for Corrosion Control of Steel Structures

Product Number: 41211-613-SG

Author: Todd Hawkins

Publication Date: 2011

$20.00

In 2000 the National Science Foundation estimated that the market for nanotechnology products will be over one trillion US dollars by 2015 and that the industry would employ over 200 million workers. These numbers have been subsequently quoted from funding applications to government policy documents, but at the halfway point many of the revolutionary and disruptive technologies predicted have failed to emerge. Indeed, seven years on from the inception of the National Nanotechnology Initiative, there appears to be little sign of a nanotechnology-based industry, although significant amounts of R&D are being undertaken by various industries.
