If your project requires DNV-CP-0338 compliance, expect:
Corrosion in seawater is electrochemical. Without protection, a steel pipeline can lose millimeters of wall thickness per year, leading to leaks, spills, and catastrophic failure. Cathodic protection works by making the steel structure the cathode of an electrochemical cell, either through sacrificial anodes (usually aluminum-zinc-indium alloys) or impressed current.
