Abstract

This paper aims to establish a direct method for evaluating the internal corrosion in submarine pipelines, including four steps: pre-assessment, indirect inspection, detailed inspection, and post-assessment. The evaluation of corrosion severity and the determination of key monitoring points are particularly important in indirect detection. Taking CO2 gathering and transmission pipeline of an offshore oil field as an example, the overall internal corrosion rate of the pipeline is calculated to be 0.253 mm/a. The 12–45 m long pipeline is selected as the focus of corrosion monitoring. Through the comparative analysis of internal detection data and loss wall thickness, it is found that the results of indirect evaluation and direct evaluation are consistent, indicating the correctness of corrosion rate prediction model and loss wall thickness calculation method. The pipeline reevaluation time is five years. The evaluation method can accurately predict the corrosion status of multiphase flow pipeline and locate the corrosion.
