It is the intent of this NACE International technical committee report to provide an overview of issues associated with buried piping that might be applicable worldwide. This report, however, is written from the perspective of experiences in the United States. This approach was taken primarily because of a lack of publicly available international information concerning this topic.
This report addresses a subset of the operating experience described above. It includes only topics related to the external corrosion of buried piping, i.e., piping that is in direct contact with soil or concrete. It does not include topics related to internal corrosion of buried piping. Additionally, it does not include topics related to the corrosion of buried tanks, such as those in contact with soil, concrete, or underground piping and tanks, i.e., those enclosed in a vault or trench.
As with all NACE state-of-the-art reports, it is not the intent of this report to be a complete treatise on the subject of degradation, corrosion prevention, or corrosion mitigation of buried piping. Rather, it is the intent of this report to identify issues for corrosion professionals to consider when addressing degradation of buried piping in nuclear power plants. The report introduces subjects and identifies applicable reference material on the subject. When a specific issue related to buried piping degradation is found to be unique to nuclear power plants, and when ample reference material is not available, this report provides additional text concerning the issue. The length of the sections of this report correlate with the uniqueness, not the importance, of the topic considered with respect to buried piping at nuclear power plants.
