Platforms and Offshore Jackets Cathodic Protection
Platforms and offshore jackets are usually subject to more severe corrosion conditions than jetties due to avoiding the beach, being completely surrounded by the sea and increasing concentrations of corrosive ions.
Cathodic protection for platforms and offshore jackets is used as an independent method and is usually used as a sacrificial anode due to the lack of electricity and ease of installation. The anodes used in this method are usually aluminum or zinc, which is more commonly used because of the higher current capacity. The anodes used in these structures are of the stand-off type and are attached to them through the core by means of welding or screwing before installing the structure at sea.
