Abstract
In recent years there has been a far greater emphasis placed on quality assurance within the oil and gas industry, this has filtered down to the cathodic protection supply sector within the offshore market. The need for quality aluminum anodes is obvious especially when deep water projects are being considered. This trend toward higher quality control levels has resulted in more third party inspection work, and better defined quality test procedures [1]. This paper will focus on the practicalities of quality control, and will highlight some of the problems which have been encountered.
