Measuring wall thickness loss across a continuous area

In the article, ‘Combatting Corrosion’, by Audun O. Pedersen, R&D Manager at ClampOn, we explore the benefits of monitoring structural health using guided waves. The article discusses technologies ranging from piezoelectric transducers to electromagnetic acoustic transducers, along with the latest tomographic imaging techniques for monitoring corrosion and erosion.
The article is published in the January issue of Oilfield Technology and is reprinted with their acceptance.
