A paper presented at Corrosion/76 by Shell Oil Company's H. E. Bross and J. A. Burgbacher concluded that "both the impressed current and sacrificial anode systems are technically feasible for cathodic protection of deep water structures" and stated that 6.5 ma/sq. ft. has provided potentials of 1.00 volts or above on their Gulf of Mexico platforms protected by the type of ICCP system described in this paper.1
