OFIS' SOLUTION - OFIS produced a corrosion prevention guide which provides guidelines and serves as a tool to safely prevent corrosion during the plant's operational phase, including:

  • Assessing the existing water network set-up;
  • Defining risk analysis criteria and assessing the associated risk levels;
  • Identifying corrosion-related factors and threats;
  • Defining preventive actions to avoid any critical situations;
  • Determining performance indicators and set targets;
  • Defining any remedial action required if thresholds are exceeded.
