• Corrosion is a natural process that can
  deteriorate metal structures and cause costly
  damage to your business.
• Pipeline Cathodic protection is a method for
  preventing corrosion on underground pipelines and
  metallic structures. It is a technique used to
  control the corrosion of a metal surface by
  making it the cathode of an electrochemical cell.
  Its one of the most effective methods for
  preventing corrosion. It is commonly used on
  ships, offshore floaters, subsea equipment,
  harbors, pipelines, tanks, etc.

• Cathodic protection connects the base metal at
  risk (steel) to a sacrificial metal that corrodes
  in lieu of the base metal. The technique of
  providing cathodic protection to steel preserves
  the metal by providing a highly active metal that
  can act as an anode and provide free electrons.
  By introducing these free electrons, the active
  metal sacrifices its ions and keeps the less
  active steel from corroding.
• The goal is to cease the effect of corrosion
  attack.

Cathodic protection a specialist operation

• Cathodic protection is used extensively to
  protect critical infrastructure from corrosion.
  For example
• It is legally mandated for gas and oil
  pipelines to ensure their safe operation.
• Offshore gas and renewable energy structures
  are effectively mandated to receive effective
  cathodic protection by their certification
  bodies.
• Ships benefit from extended dry-docking rules
  if they have effective cathodic protection.
• The life of concrete bridges and structures
  affected by chlorides, from de-icing salts or
  marine exposure, is extended by cathodic
  protection.
• Newly constructed, reinforced concrete
  structures in severe exposure conditions also
  have extended life when cathodic protection is
  used.
