Description
The steels of pipelines for the transport of hydrocarbons are stressed by damage phenomena, particularly by corrosion by soils. After detection of these failures by non-destructive testing such as ultrasound or by magnetic flux, the remaining time must be evaluated by a probabilistic approach. This work consists in evaluating the remaining service life of corroded pipes by Weibull approach over a distance of 70km from the Gaz pipeline Hassi R’Mle - Arzew. Inspection results showed peak corrosion depths with a rate of 10-30% of the thickness and two areas damaged by corrosion with a rate exceeding more than 70%. The different reliability parameters namely reliability function, failure function, failure rate, rated life from MATLAB computer code were also determined and discussed.
