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
10.04 mpy
Predicted corrosion rate under these conditions (+3.08 mpy vs. current measured rate)
Implied Remaining Life
2.0 yrs
Implied Reinspection Interval
1.0 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 — General Corrosion

API 571 §4.2.1

Uniform thinning across the surface due to the process environment. Rate depends on fluid chemistry, temperature, and velocity.

Recommended inspection approach: UT thickness grid at fixed CMLs per API 510/572; trend over time to establish long-term rate.
