Challenges:
- Only salinated water is available for washdown
- Site is remote, repairs costly, much of the concrete cannot easily be repaired / replaced
ICE Impact:
Developed a corrosion control management plan with onsite staff training work shops and ongoing support for strategic maintenance planning
- Targeted monitoring system - added ~$50k to project capital cost (<0.01% of overall cost)
- Measuring corrosion rate / likelihood
- Values are being input into a service life model / life of mine calcs
- Visibility on the risk before it becomes visible
- As we can see the difference in exposure conditions – any interventions can be targeted
- Team can plan budget, inspection schedule, resources,
