Monitoring corrosion in oil pipelines using non-destructive test
The age of the pipelines is a factor in increasing the potential risk to corrosion in pipelines hence reduces the safety of pipelines, and gets pipelines more likely to explosion or breakage. Thus, that will threaten the safety of individuals and the environment. According to corrosion is the main reason that threatens the pipeline. The danger is not limited to residents, but it could be worrisome if any the leak happened near the water sources. Thus, it will be difficult to address quickly, and requires significant costs could reach billions of dollars. Therefore, it is important to study the reasons that could be caused the pipeline explosion to avoided any effects could be happened, for example, in this paper we will focused on corrosion that happened in oil pipe depending on ultrasonic test methods (UT) to test sample of pipeline. Ultrasonic test is a test which is done by transfer a high frequency pulse through test object and receives a reflected echoes by analyzing the reflected waves which will help us to determine the thickness and other material properties
