ICE Flow Corrosion Risk Management: Gold Mine
System wide corrosion in gold mine: This site experienced many corrosion challenges due to the climate, acidic ore, low water quality and a lack of corrosion consideration in design. ICE deployed corrosion risk management program as well as reducing risk through corrosion engineering design.
Challenges:
- Systemic and highly aggressive corrosion
- Hidden asset risks
- Unknown maintenance cost / production losses
- Reactive response / minimal skill set
ICE impact:
- Technical solutions (risk-based prioritization)
- ICE Flow corrosion risk management
- Risk measured and quantified
- Risk-based work prioritization
- Accurate budgets and scheduling
- Financial impact understood
- No catastrophic failures
