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

Predicted corrosion rate under these conditions (+0.25 mpy vs. current measured rate)
Implied Remaining Life
60+ yrs
Implied Reinspection Interval

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 — Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI)

API 571 §4.3.5

Localized external corrosion beneath insulation where moisture is trapped, most severe in the 140–250°F operating band.

Recommended inspection approach: Insulation removal at high-risk locations (nozzles, low points), profile radiography, or guided-wave UT screening per API 570/RP 583.
