Prestressed concrete cylinder pipe in two pipelines experienced corrosion failure within the first 10 years of service. Mechanical damages developed a migration path for chlorides in the soil to reach the prestress wire. A safe, reliable cathodic protection (CP) system was required to keep the lines viable for their design life. A sacrificial zinc anode CP system was developed.
