External corrosion of oil and gas pipelines: A review of failure mechanisms and predictive preventions

A synergistic anti-corrosion system based on durable superhydrophobic F-SiO2/epoxy coatings and self-powered cathodic protection

“…sacricial anode cathodic protection and impressed current cathodic protection) is one of the most commonly used methods for metal anti-corrosion, and is widely used in the anti-corrosion protection of ships, pipelines, bridges, marine facilities, etc. [7][8][9] However, traditional cathodic protection is faced with the issues of material waste and energy loss, which lead to the decrease of anti-corrosion reliability and increase of anti-corrosion cost. [10][11][12] The development of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) provides a new solution to these problems.…”

A Simple Optical Sensor Based on Multimodal Interference Superimposed on Additive Manufacturing for Diameter Measurement

“…Additionally, deformation can be caused by natural disasters such as landslides and earthquakes or the theft of material transported in pipelines. The corrosion process is also one of the main factors contributing to accidents in pipelines [2]. In these cases, their disruption can produce substantial environmental injury, product failure, monetary problems, and occasionally the loss of life from explosions [3,4].…”

Corrosion effects on structural integrity and life of oil rig drill pipes

“…Casing steel pipes used in oil drilling rigs are subjected to a corrosive atmosphere making them susceptible to material degradation, sometimes in combination with errors in design and manufacturing. The main concern is the influence of CO2 and H2S in the oil and gas exploitation facilities because these gases, especially under high pressures and temperatures, create a corrosive environment [1,2]. Therefore, besides common reasons for failures of the pipelines, such as insufficient resistance to crack initiation and propagation and especially occasional inadequate quality of welded joints, corrosion defects often reduce strength and crack resistances, causing static or fatigue failure [3,4].…”
