A corrosion monitoring system may have several, sometimes entirely different purposes:
To verify the presence and the effectiveness of the corrosion inhibitor.
To monitor the occurrence or conditions favoring specific corrosion processes at specific locations.
To monitor the loss of equipment wall thickness and equipment integrity in a range of identified susceptible locations
Ideally, a monitoring system in a project is conceived during FEED and it develops as engineering and design progress. This should result in a monitoring system
that is both efficient and effective; that does not stretch the integrity management resources and precludes undetected critical corrosion.
