Many repairs on structures are performed without previous diagnosis and inspection from a structuralcorrosion point of view enhancing the damages due to the creation of active areas which can cause catastrophic accidents and increasing costs from ineffective maintenance and even shutdown of the structure. This paper presents an evaluation and repair diagnosis from a structural corrosion point of view of a basement located in a Power Unit of a Petrochemical Plant. This basement is continuously exposed to floods and stagnation from Maracaibo’s lake water. This water is very aggressive since it contains chlorides, foam and traces of oils. Due to structural problems, repairs were done urgently without any previous inspection. An inspection was carried out after the repairs were completed in order to evaluate them and elaborate a repair guideline. From this study, it was concluded that the earlier repairs didn’t meet durability criteria and new repairs are suggested.
