A STUDY OF CORROSION CONTROL IN PIPELINES

Pipeline corrosion is the deterioration of pipe material and the related system due to its interaction with the working
environment. It affects pipeline and accessories made of both metals and non-metals. Pipeline corrosion—and the
related catastrophic failures that it can cause—cost billions of dollars to the economy. The total annual cost of corrosion in
2016, including direct and indirect costs, was estimated at over USD $1.1 trillion in the United States. In other words,
corrosion is a big problem. It predominantly affects pipelines made of metals such as copper, aluminum, cast iron,
carbon steel, stainless steel and alloy steel pipes used for buried, underground, submerged or other pipelines. That
makes designing and selecting the best available systems and materials for pipelines and their corrosion protection
systems an extremely important issue for the oil and gas industry. In this research paper we will investigate and take a
look at the key types of corrosion that affect pipelines, and some of the methods that are used to protect this
infrastructure.
