Construction, operation, and maintenance of offshore pipelines and other facilities are expensive. The consequences of an offshore corrosion failure can be devastating. For these reasons, cathodic protection (CP) has become a universally applied technique for mitigating corrosion. Marine pipelines are typically provided with CP by bracelet anodes of zinc or aluminium. Impressed current system at platforms or onshore are also used as well as hybrid systems that use a combination of the two. Survey techniques are described and evaluated.
