CATHODIC PROTECTION

Cathodic protection is one of the most effective method for preventing corrosion on a metal submerged underwater or buried underground.
The technique is based on transferring corrosion to a sacrificial metal called anodes. In other words
making the whole structures to be protected the cathode. Protection can be achieved by either
sacrificial or impressed current cathodic protection. It is commonly used to protect numerous
structures against corrosion, such as ships, offshore floaters, subsea equipment, harbours, pipelines,
tanks; basically all submerged or buried metal structures.
However, to attain effective cathodic protection it should be properly designed reviewed and approved
by a NACE Certified CP4 Cathodic Protection Specialist.
