All pipelines are exposed to a range of physical,climatic,and chemical elements that can cause corrosion.This is often exacerbated in harsh environments,such as coastal,tropical,or desert areas,where pipelines are exposed to high salt levels or extreme temperatures that can accelerate the rate of decay.Ignoring the effects of corrosion can be cosdy for asset owners,and planning for corrosion control and mitigation has many advantages,including extending the life of an asset and reducing maintenance time and costs.
