Corrosion & Remaining-Life What-If

Adjust operating conditions to see the live model-predicted corrosion rate and implied remaining life

Live Prediction — What-If Model
0.10 mpy
Predicted corrosion rate under these conditions (-0.40 mpy vs. current measured rate)
Implied Remaining Life
60+ yrs
Implied Reinspection Interval
10.0 yrs

What-if model: standardized Ridge regression, R² 0.56 on held-out fleet data (3.25 mpy MAE). Runs entirely client-side for instant feedback — see Model Insights for the full fleet-scale ensemble model used for official predictions.

Governing Damage Mechanism — Wet H2S Damage (SSC/HIC)

API 571 §4.5.1

Hydrogen-induced cracking (HIC) and sulfide stress cracking (SSC) in carbon/low-alloy steel exposed to wet H2S service. Not detectable by thickness monitoring alone.

Recommended inspection approach: Wet fluorescent magnetic particle (WFMT) and UT shear-wave/AUBT surveys in addition to routine UT thickness, per API RP 571 and NACE SP0296.

This mechanism is crack-dominant — thickness monitoring alone will not detect it. See Standards & Documentation for the full NDE requirement.
