Corrosion Under Insulation Monitoring Market Overview

Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) is recognized as a major corrosion problem, which costs the oil & gas, chemical & petrochemical, and food processing industries millions of dollars a year in inspection, repair, and replacement costs. CUI can be detrimental to the integrity of an insulated pipeline or vessel if not detected early on, causing leaks leading to possible catastrophic events. Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) is one of the most insidious types of corrosion. Therefore, inspection guidelines consider it as one of the major external corrosion mechanisms at plants that require special care.

Corrosion Under Insulation Monitoring Market: Strategic Insights

Corrosion Under Insulation Monitoring Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing focus on safety compliance

There are some of the relevant standards that discuss corrosion under insulation. API 510 is a certification for Pressure Vessel Inspectors, validating their competence in assessing and ensuring the safety and compliance of pressure vessels. CUI inspection is covered in section 5.5.6 of the standard. API 570 offers guidance on identifying the piping systems most vulnerable to Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI). It also highlights common locations where CUI is often found on those susceptible systems. Therefore, increasing focus on safety compliance is driving the corrosion under the insulation monitoring market.

Integration of IoT and big data

The systems combine wave reflection time-of-flight technology and industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications to locate and monitor corrosion under insulation. The sensor wire is layered with a thin film of sacrificial material that tends to corrode in the presence of water. Using IoT sensors, the data can be measured in corrosion under insulation monitoring. Also, Machine learning technology is used in this process. Thus, the integration of IoT and big data is anticipated to generate lucrative opportunities for market growth during the forecasted period.
