Abstract

Corrosion sensing is essential to monitor and safeguard the materials’ health and control the maintenance cost of corrosion-prone materials used in various industries. The petroleum industry is a major sufferer of corrosion costs among various industries due to pipelines and downhole applications. This review article encompasses an overview of various technologies used in early detection stages for more reliable corrosion sensing and warnings. This review provides a summary of corrosion types, corrosion causing chemical species, different destructive and non-destructive technologies used in monitoring corrosion and a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art of various electrochemical techniques used for surface and downhole corrosion monitoring. Finally, the existing challenges for corrosion monitoring in surface and downhole conditions and prospects are discussed.
