Cathodic protection is an electrochemical protection system that maintains the pipe-to-soil potential (PSP) sufficiently negative in order to reduce corrosion to negligible levels. Varying telluric currents alter the PSP, thus interfering with the pipeline corrosion protection system and can create conditions when corrosion might increase above acceptable levels.This paper presents an evaluation of telluric-associated corrosion derived from measured and modelled PSP variations. The corrosion rates (metal loss per year) due to varying telluric currents with continuous frequency spectra (1 Hz-10-5 Hz) are approximated with the use of published experimental results derived for the specific sets of fixed frequencies.Results are presented for PSP observed on Australian and European pipelines during two periods of strong geomagnetic activity (in 2003 and 2004) and for identical hypothetical pipelines located at different latitudes for the entire year 2004.From the analysis of recorded PSP, it was found that the corrosion rates for a near-equatorial pipeline (Australia) could be higher than for mid-latitudes (Europe). This is possible because telluric-associated corrosion rates depend not only on geomagnetic activity, but on the properties of the pipeline coating, the performance of the cathodic protection system and environmental conditions.The study demonstrated that without cathodic protection the estimated corrosion rates exceeded the bench-mark values recommended by national and international standards, and in exceptional case can exceed the acceptable values even with cathodic protection.Telluric-associated corrosion estimated for the identical hypothetical pipelines located in zones with different geomagnetic activity, clearly demonstrated the latitudinal dependence. The substantial increase of corrosion rates (about 5 times) has been found with increase of latitude from subauroral to auroral locations.
