PEOPLE-POWERED CATHODIC PROTECTION

Energy infrastructure such as power transmission towers, power plants, oil and gas facilities, and millions of miles of pipelines, all face extreme elements and corrosive conditions such as heat, chemicals and abrasive materials. The corrosive effects are a major cost to the industry in terms of replacement and downtime so preventative corrosion prevention is a critical maintenance component.

Our nation’s water tanks are being threatened by the process of corrosion. Corrosion occurs on all submerged, buried, embedded and atmospherically exposed metallic structures. It impacts the design, operation, and maintenance of every element of a water system and costs facility owners millions of dollars annually. Corrpro’s cathodic protection systems are proven cost-reduction solutions in fighting corrosion.

Since 2003, Corrpro’s DoD Business Unit continues to be the premier contractor of choice for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Cathodic Protection IDIQ contract for DLA’s capitalized fuel and water sites worldwide. Our team brings a wealth of in-depth knowledge of unique DoD requirements and Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) specific to Military Construction (MILCON) and Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization (SRM) projects.

Over one million miles of drinking water pipelines serve 90 percent of the U.S. population. An estimated 240,000 water main breaks per year, combined with parts of North America experiencing drought conditions, mean that municipalities must mitigate water loss. This is forcing municipalities and other government agencies to spend millions to temporarily repair their infrastructure.
