Image Webinar: Corrosion Growth Assessment
+

 


While there are several options for detecting corrosion in pipelines, it is now widely accepted that inline inspection (ILI) is the most reliable method for detecting, identifying, and characterizing corrosion defects. With repeat ILI data at hand, we have the ability to observe and quantify any changes in corrosion growth and pipeline integrity. ROSEN has developed an approach that makes full use of the extensive magnetic flux leakage (MFL) data from repeat inspections to provide a full and accurate corrosion growth rate distribution.

We are pleased to invite you to a free webinar, during which we will outline our capabilities in using repeat MFL inspection data for the establishment of corrosion growth rates. We will describe how the combination of advanced ILI signal processing through computer vision technology and the knowledge and experience of ROSEN’s engineering consultants can support operators with optimized re-inspection intervals, improved rehabilitation planning, and cost-effective prevention and mitigation strategies.   

The webinar will be presented live by our experts on November 15, 2017 at 10 AM CST.
