FAQs
Find answers to common questions about R&R Corrosion’s services, specialist equipment and approach to cathodic protection and corrosion control.
What geographical areas do you cover?
R&R Corrosion Ltd can provide services all over the UK and internationally, according to project requirements and agreed mobilisation arrangements.
For larger projects, survey programmes can be planned around multiple sites and geographical locations.
What is Cathodic Protection?
Cathodic Protection is a corrosion-control technique used to protect metallic structures from electrochemical corrosion.
It works by controlling the electrical potential of the structure so that corrosion reactions are significantly reduced. CP is commonly used to protect buried and immersed pipelines, tanks, well casings and other metallic infrastructure.
Why is Cathodic Protection important?
Even a well-coated pipeline can develop defects in its coating over time. Cathodic Protection provides additional protection at these exposed areas.
An effective CP system can:
• Reduce the risk of external corrosion
• Extend asset service life
• Reduce the likelihood of leaks and failures
• Identify changes in corrosion protection performance
• Support proactive maintenance
What types of Cathodic Protection systems are there?
There are two principal types:
Sacrificial Anode Cathodic Protection
Uses a more reactive metal, such as magnesium, zinc or aluminium, which preferentially corrodes and provides protection to the structure.
Impressed Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP)
Uses an external DC power source, normally a transformer/rectifier, connected to an anode system to provide protective current to the structure.
