The preferred cathodic-protection systems for offshore structures are (1) the sacrificial-anode form for areas where the anode's weight or wave resistance is not a serious handicap and (2) a combined anode/impressed-current system that reduces the anode mass. Problems associated with controlling and monitoring the equipment are related to the anode locations, suitability of the reference electrodes, instrumentation requirements, interpretation of the measured potentials, and influence of water depth.
