Petroleum products are of vital importance to the preservation of industrial civilization. These products have been transported over long distances by buried steel pipelines. The pipes are generally in soil environments which contain oxygen and therefore can undergo corrosion. Over the past years, several accidents have been reported which were caused by corrosion, resulting in loss of property and life. These pipes are protected against corrosion using coating and cathodic protection systems. As the demand for petroleum has increased over the years, multiple pipelines sharing rights of way have been used to transport the products. These products are stored in large above ground storage tanks. As each structure is provided with independent cathodic protection system, there arises the possibility of interaction between the different CP systems installed. This interference can cause regions on the structure to be either over or under protected. The effect is greater when there are coating defects in the structures. The objective of this work was to use CP3D, a numerical simulation tool, to study the effect of interference in cathodic protection systems for pipelines. The calculated 13 potential and current distributions along the length of the structure were used to understand the interference effect and performance of cathodic protection system. The simulation tool was also used to extend the recent modeling studies of tank bottoms to account for the presence of coatings and coating flaws on the ability of CP systems to provide adequate protection.
In this book we collect the information of cathodic protection for pipeline in practical fields, to obtain data base to understand and optimize the design which is made by simulation for the environmental factors and cathodic protection variables also soil resistivity and recording the anodes voltage and its related currents for the protection of underground pipelines. Modeling enables the designer to build cathodic protection for buried structure and predicting the places of anodes sites and its operating voltages and currents under various operational conditions, and comparing it with those in practices.The design of anode ground bed plays an important role since the current distribution and pipe potential will be affected by anode position with respect to the structure position. This book describes the effect of anode position and a comparison has been made with other different positions for the same pipe coated/uncoated in different soil conditions. Contours maps for potential distribution are also obtained.
Provides an introduction to the state-of-the-art in computer modelling of corrosion and related electrochemical processes. Aimed at corrosion engineers, physicists, and model developers, this book contains contributions from the researchers and developers of corrosion modelling tools and users who apply the technology in their industry.

Revised and updated, this second edition of Cathodic Protection of Steel in Concrete and Masonry covers both reinforced concrete and masonry structures, describes in detail the overall design factors involved in cathodic protection (CP), and also provides a theoretical basis for why it works. It refers to the new European standard EN 12696 for cath
