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
8.36 mpy
Predicted corrosion rate under these conditions (+7.03 mpy vs. current measured rate)
Implied Remaining Life
11.8 yrs
Implied Reinspection Interval
5.9 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 — Naphthenic Acid Corrosion

API 571 §4.2.10

Aggressive, velocity-assisted corrosion in high-TAN crude fractions, most severe 450–750°F; low-alloy/carbon steel is far more susceptible than Mo-bearing or 316 SS.

Recommended inspection approach: UT thickness at high-velocity/turbulent locations; feed TAN monitoring; consider alloy upgrade per API 571 guidance.
