It is not hard to imagine the risk that corrosion poses to plant and equipment. What is less considered is the threat this risk also poses to human safety and to the environment. Managing and mitigating this risk can be done through developing and maintaining a management plan. Industry recognised best practice is to implement a regime of inspections and risk assessments, thereby determining the condition of equipment or a section of plant. An evaluation may then be made of the likelihood of failure or damage due to corrosion and a measure of severity of outcome estimated; key steps in the development of options to mitigate, manage or remove this risk. Corrosion risk mitigation may be as simple as altering materials or applying a coating or it might involve other design changes.
