Year Published: 1972
Abstract: The Office of Pipeline Safety, Docket No. OPS-5, Subpart I-Requirements for Corrosion Control has been extensively reviewed in the literature however, with the exception of the cathodic protection criteria, only scattered and incomplete mention is made of the technological use of criteria for preventing and controlling the corrosion of underground piping systems. The years of successful industry experience in controlling corrosion were documented by the National Association of Corrosion Engineers in a recommended practice titled NACE, RP-OI-09, Recommended Practice-Control of External Corrosion on Underground or Submerged Metallic Piping System. The procedures presented in this recoitimended practice provided the bases for the criteria and methods of measurement which were adopted by OPS. To fulfill the requirements of the technical community, however, the document has to be broad in its scope and still meet the safety requirement of the act.
