Jetty Line Monitoring
Case Study 22: Early Detection Corrosion Jetty Lines
This case study describes the use of GUL Area Monitoring for the proactive management of jetty line integrity of a sea-borne refinery, significantly reducing the cost of maintenance and ensuring safe and efficient transfer of product. Active corrosion was identified at an early stage, before corrosion allowances were breached. Going undetected because of the inaccessible location underneath the jetty structure, this could have resulted in loss of containment. Therefore, environmental damage and reduction of refinery throughput was prevented.
