Crevice Corrosion in a Subsea System — Aspect Before Analysis

The macrography of the welded joint shows the AA 6063 alloy pipe in the right and the AA 3003 pipe in the left, welded in two passes.  The root presents small regions of corrosion in the weld metal and a localized corrosion at the fusion line of the 6063 pipe (knife-line attack morphology).
