50 mV As a Screening Criteria for Shorted Casings – Case Study

Picture for 50 mV As a Screening Criteria for Shorted Casings – Case Study
Available for download

While performing cathodic protection surveys, carrier pipe and casing potential readings are typically recorded at the same test station location near the end of a casing. Comparing these potentials should reveal a difference between the cathodically protected pipe versus an unprotected and electrically isolated casing. The difference in potentials is one of available tests to determine whether a casing may be electrically shorted to the carrier pipe. The pipe-to-electrolyte and casing-to-electrolyte potential comparison is usually the initial “screening” method.

AMPP SP-0200-2014 Steel Cased Pipeline Practices is the industry consensus guidance document detailing techniques to screen for and evaluate cased crossings for shorts. The Standard Practice (SP) provides various non-mandatory monitoring techniques that may be applied to evaluate the presence of a shorted condition.
This abstract provides a case study by one pipeline operator and their decision to utilize 50 mV as a potential screening criterion for shorted casings.

Traditional Corrosion Growth Rate (CGR) models used in the integrity assessment of corroded pipelines are deterministic. A common Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) inline inspection (ILI) tool performance specification on general corrosion anomaly depth is +/- 10% Wall Thickeness (WT) at 80% confidence which corresponds to a standard deviation of 7.81% WT.  Probabilistic Corrosion Growth Rate (PCGR) models incorporate these large measurement uncertainties and provide more realistic reliability assessments

Mining is the essential process of extracting materials from the earth. It dates back to prehistoric times when the earliest humans mined flint, copper and gold. These basic materials were then used for tools, weapons, currency. Today, there is a wide array of mined products from the extraction of valuable materials. Mining is a growing industry with many varied processes and system designs depending on the extraction requirements, processing techniques, and restoration of the land after a mind is closed.

The production of hydrocarbons from a reservoir involves the drilling and interaction of a well with a reservoir, which initiates the natural flow of the hydrocarbons from the virgin reservoir to the surface. However, as production continues, the reservoir pressure is depleted, which results in a reduction of the hydrocarbon production rate due to reservoir maturity. This is usually accompanied by increased water-cut levels and a corresponding decrease in gas production, which may not only reduce but completely stop the flow of fluids from a well.
