Preserving the system through preemptive pipeline corrosion inspection

 Corrosion is still a main cause of pipeline infrastructure failure and is hazardous to safety, operation and the environment. To address these threats, businesses are more and more focused on pipeline corrosion inspection – an important aspect to prolong the life of important assets.


A good pipeline corrosion evaluation includes the determination of susceptible sections, analysis of environmental conditions, and the use of diagnostic methods, including ultrasonic testing, inline inspection, and cathodic protection readings. These surveys offer visibility of internal and external corrosion activity, which can be used by operators to facilitate intervention strategies.

Early warning of variations in performance may prevent repair bills, costly downtime or worse. That’s why long-term maintenance plans will typically include regular pipeline corrosion inspection. It is used by teams to monitor the trend in pipe wall loss thickness, corrosion rate or efficiency of mitigative actions.

Today, process advances in corrosion monitoring make predictive maintenance possible rather than a reactive one. Consequently, historical data is used in combination with results from the most recent inspection for operators to forecast potential areas of concern and develop remedial strategies.

A whole-pipeline corrosion assessmentis critical, and it’s not just technical—rather, it’s about compliance with regulations and stakeholder confidence. Higher and higher expectations for infrastructure integrity and organizations that place priority on corrosion management are sending a clear message that they are committed to safety, sustainability and operational excellence.

In an area of business in which there is no tolerance for a piece of equipment not to last or work as intended, corrosion risk assessment is not merely a box-ticking exercise; it’s an ongoing commitment that supports broader, smarter asset management.
