There are consequences of an inadequate microbial control program. Uncontrolled biofouling, microbially influenced corrosion or MIC, and reservoir souring can all exacerbate corrosion.
A refinery was experiencing bottom plate underside (soil-side) corrosion of its aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) at an extraordinarily high rate of 1 to 2 mm/y. This resulted in the failure of four ...
Lightning-resistant remote cathodic protection (CP) monitoring devices are able to communicate potential problems with corrosion specialists in a timely manner.
What is Microbiologically Induced Corrosion (MIC) Microbiologically influenced corrosion is corrosion caused by the presence and activities of microorganisms in biofilms on the surface of the ...
