Lessons learned from corrosion-related accidents in petroleum refineries
Corrosion represents a particularly relevant risk to petroleum refineries because refineries typically have several high risk factors due to the type of substances and processes involved in its operations. Other local conditions may also contribute to an acceleration in the
corrosion rate, including physical location of equipment and the climate. Moreover, certain operating conditions in a refinery, both normal and abnormal, by their nature are particularly likely to present favourable opportunities for a corrosion failure to initiate a chain of events leading to a major accident.
