T/CSTM 01479-2025 Steel submarine pipelines — Corrosion — Ultrasonic array thickness measurement method
Basic Information
Scope
This document specifies the terms and definitions, method overview, general requirements, inspection rules, and inspection reports for corrosion detection of steel subsea pipelines using flexible ultrasonic array thickness imaging technology. This document is applicable to the inspection of above-water sections of subsea pipelines with a wall thickness of 2 mm to 20 mm. Other process pipelines and inspection methods (such as those based on ROVs) can be implemented with reference to this document.
