12、_ Foreword External corrosion direct assessment (ECDA) is a structured process that is intended to improve safety by assessing and reducing the impact of external corrosion on pipeline integrity. By identifying and addressing corrosion activity, repairing corrosion defects, and remediating the cause

13、, ECDA proactively seeks to prevent external corrosion defects from growing to a size that is large enough to affect structural integrity. ECDA as described in this standard practice is specifically intended to address buried onshore pipelines constructed from ferrous materials. Other methods of add

14、ressing external corrosion on onshore ferrous pipelines, such as pressure testing and in-line inspection (ILI), are not covered in this standard but are covered in other industry standards. Users of this standard must be familiar with all applicable pipeline safety regulations for the jurisdiction i

15、n which the pipeline operates. This includes all regulations requiring specific pipeline integrity assessment practices and programs. This standard is intended for use by pipeline operators and others who must manage pipeline integrity. ECDA is a continuous improvement process. Through successive EC

16、DA applications, a pipeline operator should be able to identify and address locations at which corrosion activity has occurred, is occurring, or may occur. One of the advantages of ECDA is that it can locate areas where defects could form in the future rather than only areas where defects have alrea

17、dy formed. Pipeline operators have historically managed external corrosion using some of the ECDA tools and techniques. Often, data from aboveground inspection tools have been used to locate areas that may be experiencing external corrosion. The ECDA process takes this practice several steps forward

18、 and integrates information on a pipelines physical characteristics and operating history (preassessment) with data from multiple field examinations (indirect inspection) and pipe surface evaluations (direct examination) to provide a more comprehensive integrity evaluation with respect to external c

19、orrosion (postassessment). This standard was originally prepared in 2002 by Task Group (TG) 041, “Pipeline Direct Assessment Methodology.” It was reaffirmed in 2008 by Specific Technology Group (STG) 35, “Pipelines, Tanks, and Well Casings,” and revised in 2010 by TG 041.

This standard is intended to serve as a guide for

27、applying the NACE ECDA process on typical pipeline systems. 1.1.2 This standard was written to provide flexibility for an operator to tailor the process to specific pipeline situations. 1.1.3 ECDA is a continuous improvement process. Through successive applications, ECDA should identify and address

28、locations at which corrosion activity has occurred, is occurring, or may occur. 1.1.3.1 ECDA provides the advantage and benefit of locating areas where defects may form in the future rather than only areas where defects have already formed. 1.1.3.2 Comparing the results of successive ECDA applicatio

29、ns is one method of evaluating ECDA effectiveness and demonstrating that confidence in the integrity of the pipeline is continuously improving. 1.1.4 ECDA was developed as a process for improving pipeline safety. Its primary purpose is preventing future external corrosion damage. 1.1.4.1 This standa

30、rd assumes external corrosion is a threat to be evaluated. It can be used to establish a baseline from which future corrosion can be assessed for pipelines when external corrosion is not currently a significant threat. 1.1.5 ECDA as described in this standard is specifically intended to address buri

31、ed onshore pipelines constructed from ferrous materials. 1.1.6 ECDA applications can include but are not limited to assessments of external corrosion on pipeline segments that: 1.1.6.1 Cannot be inspected using other inspection methods (such as ILI or pressure testing). 1.1.6.2 Have been inspected u

32、sing other inspection methods as a method of managing future corrosion. 1.1.6.3 Have been inspected with another inspection method as a method of establishing a reassessment interval. 1.1.6.4 Have not been inspected using other inspection methods when managing future corrosion is of primary interest

33、. 1.1.7 ECDA may detect other pipeline integrity threats, such as mechanical damage, stress corrosion cracking (SCC), and microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). When such threats are detected, additional assessments or inspections must be performed. The pipeline operator should use appropriat

34、e methods such as ASME(1)B31.4,1ASME B31.8,2ASME B31.8S,3and API(2)Std 11604to address risks other than external corrosion. (1)ASME International (ASME), Three Park Ave., New York, NY 10016-5990.

35、 NACE International 1.1.8 ECDA has limitations and all pipelines cannot be successfully assessed with ECDA. Precautions should be taken when applying these techniques just as with other assessment methods. 1.1.8.1 This standard may be applied to poorly coated or bare pipelines in accordance with the

36、 methods and procedures included herein and given in NACE SP02075and NACE Standard TM0109.6Poorly coated pipelines are usually treated as essentially bare if the cathodic current requirements to achieve protection are substantially the same as those for bare pipe. 1.1.9 For accurate and correct appl

37、ication of this standard, the standard shall be used in its entirety. Using or referring to only specific paragraphs or sections can lead to misinterpretation and misapplication of the recommendations and practices contained herein. 1.1.10 This standard does not designate practices for every specifi

38、c situation because of the complexity of conditions to which buried pipeline systems are exposed. 1.1.11 The provisions of this standard should be applied under the direction of competent persons who, by reason of knowledge of the physical sciences and the principles of engineering and mathematics,

39、acquired by education and related practical experience, are qualified to engage in the practice of corrosion control and risk assessment on buried ferrous piping systems. Such persons may be registered professional engineers or persons recognized as corrosion specialists or cathodic protection (CP)

40、specialists by organizations such as NACE or engineers or technicians with suitable levels of experience, if their professional activities include external corrosion control of buried ferrous piping systems. 1.2 Four-Step Process 1.2.1 ECDA requires the integration of data from multiple field examin

41、ations and from pipe surface evaluations with the pipelines physical characteristics and operating history. 1.2.2 ECDA includes the following four steps, as shown in Figures 1(a) and 1(b): 1.2.2.1 Preassessment. The Preassessment Step collects historic and current data to determine whether ECDA is f

42、easible, defines ECDA regions, and selects indirect inspection tools. The types of data to be collected are typically available in construction records, operating and maintenance histories, alignment sheets, corrosion survey records, other aboveground inspection records, and inspection reports from

43、prior integrity evaluations or maintenance actions. 1.2.2.2 Indirect Inspection. The Indirect Inspection Step covers aboveground inspections to identify and define the severity of coating faults, other anomalies, and areas where corrosion activity may have occurred or may be occurring. Two or more i

44、ndirect inspection tools are used over the entire pipeline segment to provide improved detection reliability under the wide variety of conditions that may be encountered along a pipeline right-of-way. 1.2.2.3 Direct Examination. The Direct Examination Step includes analyses of indirect inspection da

45、ta to select sites for excavations and pipe surface evaluations. The data from the direct examinations are combined with prior data to identify and assess the effect of external corrosion on the pipeline. In addition, evaluation of pipeline coating performance, corrosion defect repairs, and mitigati

46、on of corrosion protection faults are included in this step. 1.2.2.4 Postassessment. The Postassessment Step covers analyses of data collected from the previous three steps to assess the effectiveness of the ECDA process and determine reassessment intervals. 1.2.3 When ECDA is applied for the first

47、time on a pipeline that does not have a good history of corrosion protection, including regular indirect inspections, more stringent requirements apply. These requirements include but are not limited to additional data collection, direct examinations, and postassessment activities. ANSI/NACE SP0502-

48、2010 NACE International 3 1.2.3.1 For initial ECDA applications, more stringent requirements are used to provide an enhanced understanding of pipeline integrity with respect to external corrosion. 1.3 Supplemental Information 1.3.1 Data collection methods before coating removal used during the Direct Examination Step are presented in Appendix A (nonmandatory). 1.3.2 Corrosion damage and corrosion depth measurements used during the Direct Examination Step are presented in Appendix B (nonmandatory). 1.3.3 Co
