...Abstract Cathodic potential (CP) criteria have been used as a recommended minimum requirement for controlling external corrosion of buried steel piping systems. In Part 1 of the three-part paper, discrepant and sometimes conflicting CP criteria in global CP standards were reviewed...

...Abstract Cathodic potential (CP) criteria have been used as a recommended minimum requirement for controlling external corrosion of buried or submerged steel piping systems. A critical review of CP criteria in five international CP standards and historical publications was undertaken. Discrepant...

... was met only occasionally. Abstract Cathodic potential (CP) criteria have been used as a recommended minimum requirement for controlling external corrosion of buried steel piping systems. In this last part of a three-part paper, field and laboratory data were evaluated to understand the effectiveness...

Understanding the IR drops is useful...

... pipelines into analysis segments provide for a powerful and efficient means of ECDA analysis. Based on user specified criteria, these software platforms substantially reduce analysis time, while reducing the potential for human error associated with manual analysis. Results analysis of modified criteria...

... control of external corrosion. Many seem to ignore the intent of this document and concern themselves only with cathodic protection and related criteria. We must consider the other parts of the document and how to effectively control external corrosion with all possible methods with an understanding...

... Acceptance The validation data is subject to acceptance criteria to determine if an ILI Final Report is acceptable for integrity management purposes. Table 5 shows the result of applying specific acceptance criteria to example validation results. The table shows a ±10% wall thickness tolerance...

...Abstract Cathodic protection of steel in concrete has emerged in the last 10-15 years from being an experimental method to a well-established technique to combat reinforcement corrosion, particularly chloride-induced corrosion. Various organisations have produced sets of criteria against which...

...Abstract Evaluating the cathodic protection levels of large geographically dispersed natural gas distribution systems presents significant challenges to the consistent and proper application of cathodic protection criteria. The measurements must be taken properly, the appropriate criteria applied...

...Abstract Although cathodic protection (CP) has been shown to effectively control corrosion of steel in concrete, disagreement still exists regarding the criteria used to test and regulate CP systems. The criteria in most common use today include 100 mV polarization decay and the E-log I technique...

... without compromising safety. Application of alternative cathodic protection criteria rewards companies with additional resources to remain competitive. This paper examines the results of applying a combination of technologies that matured throughout the 1980’s: Global Positioning Satellites, rugged field...

.... Weight loss experiments are particularly difficult to conduct. Indirect techniques, such as linear polarization resistance and AC impedance, are also difficult to apply in concrete, and are not capable of measuring corrosion rate on cathodically polarized specimens. Abstract Criteria related studies...

... protection materials have evolved and now a variety of systems with more defined designs and service life projections can be specified. With a history of systems starting back in the early 1970's, a variety of cathodic protection criteria have emerged. NACE RP0290-90 was the first technical society...
