Crevice Corrosion in a Subsea System — Aspect Before Analysis

API — sub-branches

Detail of the transverse section of the 4" pipe at the longitudinal seam weld evidencing the leakage position.  The damage appears as a through wall opening.  The pipe thickness is 8 mm and there are no evidences of general corrosion (the SCH 80 corresponds to 8.6 mm) or pitting at the internal surface.

Wire rope, nominal diamater 2".  The wire includes an independent core (IWRC) with 7 wires of 2.0 mm and 6 strands with 26 wires (1+5+[5+5]+10).  The external strand layer presents a 3.8mm wire, and there are two internal strand layers with different wire sizes. The wire rope presents plastic reinforcement.  It is a right regular lay AACI made by extra improved plow steel (EIPS) wires.
