Cathodic Protection

Cathodic protection is, with or without the presence of coatings, the most common way of protection of subsea metallic materials. It is also widely used for metallic structures in soil or concrete.

Our services include
FORCE Technology offers a range of services related to cathodic protection, typically:

• Cathodic protection design
• Design verification
• Cathodic protection inspection
• Troubleshooting and assessment of cathodic protection systems in service
• Lifetime extension (retrofit) design and verification
• Computer modelling verification of cathodic protection systems
• Supply and commissioning of cathodic protection equipment
• General cathodic protection consultancy.

The most powerful tool available
Our computer modelling system, SeaCorr, is recognised as the most powerful tool available. It utilises an extensive database with cathodic protection data from relevant locations.

Computer modelling is typically used for:

• Verification of cathodic protection designs
• Optimisation of cathodic protection designs
• “What-if” analyses.

We also offer cathodic protection products for protection of stainless steels:

• Resistor controlled cathodic protection (RCP) for internal cathodic protection of stainless steel seawater systems
• Diode controlled cathodic protection (DCP) for cathodic protection of 13Cr pipelines.
