Introduction

Maintaining the ageing infrastructure such as underground pipelines is a mission to the oil and gas industry worldwide. Corrosion is one of the main effects of ageing the industrial infrastructures. Comprehending its mechanism and how to control it, can lead to a stunning reduce in the cost of the products. Cathodic Protection (CP) is one of the most widely used ways to control corrosion control in industry.

The CP is a method that eliminates the corrosion of metals by the application of an electric current. It is a technique that has been known for 160 years and is extensively applied to offshore pipelines and tank farms, etc with great success. However, despite this long history and broad applicability, it is a technique that is all too often inadequately, or even improperly. Applied; with the result that structures are poorly protected or, worse, adversely interfered with.
