Bacterial contamination is one of the leading sources of corrosion
70%
of pipe leaks are caused by local corrosion
$7
billion
annually are spent on corrosion control and pipelines repair
$1,4
billion
annually are spent worldwide on infrastructure and machinery protection and reconstruction
Up to 40%
of cases of corrosion are caused by bacterial contamination
The problem
Biocorrosion causes pumping equipment, underground pipelines, above ground and other utilities premature failure
The losses
Worldwide spendings of oil industry related to corrosion come to 3,7 billion dollars annually
The solution
Well-timed diagnostics, optimal biocide treatment and regular control
