Page 5 EN 12495 : 2000 Introduction Cathodic protection, possibly together with protective coating or paint, is usually applied to protect the external surfaces of fixed steel o

19、ffshore structures and appurtenance from corrosion due to sea water or marine sediments. The general principles of cathodic protection are detailed in prEN 12473:1999. The cathodic reaction ensures the protection from corrosion of the submerged areas of the structure and associated appurtenances whi

20、ch are exposed to the marine environment. Cathodic protection involves the supply of sufficient direct current to the external surface of the structure in order to reduce the steel to electrolyte potential down to values where corrosion is insignificant. 1 Scope This European Standard defines the me

21、ans to be used to cathodically protect the submerged areas of fixed steel offshore structures and appurtenances. 1.1 Structural parts This European Standard defines the requirements for the cathodic protection of fixed structures, including sub sea production and related protective structures whethe

22、r connected or not to each other by pipelines and/or walkways. It also covers the submerged areas of appurtenances attached to the structure, when these are electrically connected to the structure. It does not cover the cathodic protection of floating structures such as ships, semi-submersible units

23、, or elongated structures such as pipelines or cables. This European Standard concerns only the cathodic protection of external surfaces, in contact with the sea water or with the sea bed. It covers the immersed or buried external surfaces of the jacket, conductor pipes, well casings, piles, J-tubes

24、, production or utility risers, etc. It does not cover the corrosion protection of the sections of the structure above the sea level : .e. the splash zone and atmospheric zone. This standard does not include the internal protection of any components such as jacket members, legs, conductor pipes; the

25、 protection of these is often performed using chemicals. 1.2 Materials This European Standard covers the cathodic protection of bare or coated steels with a specified minimum yield strength (S.M.Y.S.) not exceeding 500 N/mm2. 1.2.1 Overpolarisation by reducing the number of ancillary surfaces ; by l

28、he protection of crevices although higher potentials can be considered. NOTE 2 Depending on metallurgical structure these alloys can be susceptible to cracking and high negative potentials must be avoided (see prEN 12473:1999). 4.3 Electrical current demand In order to achieve the cathodic protectio

29、n criteria on the whole structure it is necessary to consider the electrical current demand on each part of the structure. The electrical current demand of each pari of the structure is the product of its steel surface area multiplied by the electrical current density required. The current density r

30、equired is not the same for all parts of the structure as the environmental conditions are variable. Therefore, the following areas and parts should be considered, referring to zones as defined in clause 3 : - areas located in the tidal and transition zones (usually coated or cladded) ; - areas loca

31、ted in the immersed zone : - areas located in the buried zone ; Page 10 EN 12495 : 2000 - wells to be drilled ; a current allowance per well shall be considered, depending on projected sizes, depth and cementing of the wells (see A.4 in annex A) ; neighbouring structures and pipelines in electrical

32、contact with the fixed steel offshore structure to be protected. The selection of design current densities may be based on experiences from similar structures in the same environment or from specific tests and measurements (typical values are given in annex A). - The electrical current density requi

33、red for cathodic protection depends upon the kinetics of the electrochemical reactions and varies with parameters such as the electrode potential of the steel, the dissolved oxygen content of the sea water, the water flow rate, the temperature, and, possibly, the water depth. Furthermore, the build

34、up of calcareous deposits and the settlement of marine growth modify the surface conditions for the cathodic reactions. For each particular set of environmental condition and surface condition of the steel (such as rusted, blast cleaned, coated with organic or metallic coating), the following electr

35、ical current densities shall be evaluated : - initial electrical current density required to achieve the initial polarisation of the structure, .e. to achieve the lowering of the steel potential down to value within the range recommended in table 1; maintenance electrical current density required to

36、 maintain this polarisation level on the structure ; - - final or repolarisation electrical current density required for a possible repolarisation (.e. for re-establishing the potential to the initial polarisation level) of the structure after severe storms or cleaning operations. As the initial pol

37、arisation period preceding steady state or maintenance conditions is normally short compared to the design life, the time weighted electrical current density becomes very close to maintenance electrical current density. A proper evaluation of the current densities required shall be carried out to op

38、timise the cathodic protection system. Interactions A platform may be permanently or temporarily connected to other neighbouring structures. These structures should be fitted with their own cathodic protection system which shall be checked before electrically connecting them to the platform consider

39、ed. If temporary structures are not fitted with a cathodic protection system or if this is ineffective, the cathodic protection of the platform should be checked to ensure its efficiency during the connection period and the influence of this foreign structure should be evaluated. 4.4 Coatings The ca

40、thodic protection system may be combined with suitable coating systems. The coating reduces the electrical current demand and improves the electrical current distribution on the structure due to its insulating properties. This reduction of the electrical current demand may be in a ratio of 100 to 1

41、or even more. However, the current demand of coated steel will increase with time as the coating deteriorates. An initial coating breakdown factor related mainly to mechanical damage occurring during the installation of the structure should be considered and a coating deterioration rate shall be the

42、reafter evaluated in order to take into account the coating ageing and possible small mechanical damage occurring to the coating during the structure life. These values are closely dependent on the actual installation conditions and operation conditions. Guidelines for the values of coating breakdow

43、n factors are given in annex A. The resultant electrical current density needed for the protection of coated steel is therefore equal to the product of the electrical current density for bare steel and the coating breakdown factor. Page 11 EN 12495 : 2000 Due to possible interactions between the cat

44、hodic protection and the coating, all coatings to be used in combination with cathodic protection should be tested beforehand to establish that they have adequate resistance to cathodic disbondment. 4.5 Cathodic protection systems - Anode dimensions Cathodic protection can be achieved using : - the

45、galvanic anodes system ; - the impressed current system ; - a combination of both cathodic protection systems (hybrid systems). When using hybrid systems the galvanic anodes should provide cathodic protection during float out, initial installation and subsequently during the impressed current system

46、 shutdowns. Galvanic anodes should also be installed in areas where it may be difficult to achieve adequate level of polarisation by the impressed current system due to shielding effects. As the electrical current demand is not constant with time, the cathodic protection system shall be able to deli

47、ver the re-polarisation current density required for short periods throughout the life of the structure. The number of anodes required in any particular zone of the structure will be determined by the cathodic protection current demand in that zone and the individual anode current output. The curren

48、t output from each individual anode is calculated by Ohms law: /= AWR where : AV is the driving voltage between the anode potential and the protection potential of steel, in volts ; R is the circuit resistance, usually taken as the anode resistance, in ohms. The anode resistance is a function of the

49、 resistivity of the anodic environment and of the geometry (form and dimensions) of the anode. The anode resistance may be calculated using one of the empirical formulae given in annex B. If the anodes are grouped in arrays and close to each other, mutual interference between anodes should be considered when calculating the anodic resistance. The cathodic protection system should be designed to minimise the risks of affecting associated pipelines or any other neighbouring structure. All components of the cathodic protection system should be installed at locations where the prob
