1 Cathodic Protection/Corrosion Control

2 Introduction Review online course content. Review questions.

3 Workshop Objectives To provide discussion, demonstrations, and hands-on activities that will enable you to: Define the corrosion process Explain the causes of corrosion Identify types of corrosion. Define: Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) Selective Seam Corrosion (SSC)  List locations to inspect Identify elements to look for during an inspection Explain how to handle corroded materials

4 Corrosion The conditions that cause corrosion
Environmental factors contributing to corrosion Determining the extent of deterioration “Real world” scenarios

5 Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) Selective Seam Corrosion (SSC)
Image Retrieved July 2013 Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) - Selective Seam Corrosion (SSC) - 

6 Corrosion Types Anti corrosion coatings Atmospheric
Localized (pitting or crevices) Generalized Galvanic Microbiological Graphite Flow-Assisted Anti corrosion coatings Paint Tape Insulation

7 Inspections-Locations
Appropriate Inspection Intervals (as required by the Code of Federal Regulations) Locations to inspect Above grade Where soil and air meet At bolted connections At pipe supports In splash zones Where pipe spans water Under thermal insulation Under disbonded coating At deck penetrations

8 Inspections What to look for during an inspection
Rust Cracking, flaking or chalking Thin or rough spots Discolored or mottled surfaces Holes, cuts or gouges Wrinkled or disbonded coating (difficult to detect) Cracked, chipped, flaking or peeling paint Determine the extent of deterioration Local inspection standards Activity Worksheet #1

9 Sources Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
Compressed Gas Association (CGA) US Department of Transportation (FHWA) Code of Federal Regulations: § External corrosion control: Examination of buried pipeline when exposed. § Atmospheric corrosion control: General. § Atmospheric corrosion control: Monitoring. § Do I have to examine exposed portions of buried pipelines? § Which pipelines must I protect against atmospheric corrosion and what coating material may I use? § Atmospheric corrosion control: Monitoring. What must I do to monitor atmospheric corrosion control

10 Corrosion Performance Checklist
