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 (+0.26 mpy vs. current measured rate)
Implied Remaining Life

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 — Chloride Stress Corrosion Cracking (Cl-SCC)

API 571 §4.5.2

Cracking of austenitic stainless steel exposed to chlorides above roughly 140°F under tensile stress; not a thickness-loss mechanism.

Recommended inspection approach: Surface/near-surface NDE (PT, ECT) at susceptible welds and CUI-prone insulated stainless piping; chloride source control.

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