Corrosion control systems for the underside steel plates of above-ground storage tanks (ASTs) may not provide adequate protection. Volatile Corrosion Inhibitors (VCIs) reduce corrosion in this area and their effectiveness is presented in this paper.

External corrosion in uninsulated pipelines is normally able to be prevented by cathodic protection (CP). Generally, external corrosion on buried pipelines cannot occur if CP current is getting onto the pipe. CP is an electrochemical means of corrosion control in which the oxidation reaction in a galvanic cell is concentrated at the anode and suppresses corrosion of the cathode (pipe) in the same cell. For instance, to make a pipeline a cathode, an anode is attached to it.
Technologically advanced, fully-digital ultrasonic wall-thickness measurement systems coupled with Internet of Things (IoT) back-haul data communication schemes, including cellular, are enabling transportable,accurate and cost-effective corrosion-monitoring systems.
On July 8th, 1986, an 8-inch pipeline transporting gasoline ruptured in Mounds View, Minnesota. Vaporized gasoline combined with air and liquid gasoline flowed along neighborhood streets. Approximately 30 minutes later, a vehicle entered the area igniting the gasoline vapor.
