Abstract: Why is it important to prevent corrosion? It causes deterioration of the steel pipe and if not controlled can lead to unsafe conditions of the pipeline. Our number one priority as pipeline operators is to put public safety first, so taking steps to protect our pipeline is of the utmost importance. Atmospheric corrosion mitigation for exposed steel station piping seems to be a battle that many of us in the gas industry deal with every day. This paper will give some insight on what causes corrosion, understanding corrosion, and the atmosphere involved in the corrosion cell. We will also discuss what steps can be taken to help mitigate corrosion on exposed station piping. This is intended to be a basic understanding for the gas measurement personnel, to be better prepared for inspection and maintenance of the facility. It is important to remember that all federal and state rules and regulations and all company policies and procedures must be followed. Some of the information in this paper is my suggestion or recommendation based off my personal experiences. Remember, when it comes to atmospheric corrosion mitigation of exposed steel piping, there could be more than one remedy.
