| Summary: | Leakage current problem can happen in Cathodic Protection
(CP) system installation. It could affect the performance of
underground facilities such as piping, building structure, and
earthing system. Worse can happen is rapid corrosion where
disturbance to plant operation plus expensive maintenance
cost. Occasionally, if it seems, tracing its root cause could be
tedious. The traditional method called line current
measurement is still valid effective. It involves isolating one
by one of the affected underground structures. The recent
methods are Close Interval Potential Survey and Pipeline
Current Mapper were better and faster. On top of the
mentioned method, there is a need to enhance further by
synthesizing with the latest visual methods. Therefore, this
paper describes research works on Infrared Thermography
Quantitative (IRTQ) method as resolution of leakage current
problem in CP system. The scope of study merely focuses on
tracing the root cause of leakage current occurring at the CP
system lube base oil plant. The results of experiment
adherence to the hypothesis drawn. Consequently, reso |
