Corrosion Control Engineering
Advanced cathodic protection design and corrosion analysis for buried metallic structures and pipelines.
Service Overview
E&S Grounding Solutions delivers cutting-edge corrosion analysis and cathodic protection design services that go far beyond traditional empirical methods. Our advanced computational capabilities address complex real-world scientific and engineering corrosion challenges with unmatched accuracy and realism.
Corrosion-related life-safety exposure represents a $48–70 billion annual expense in North America. According to a 2016 analysis by Johns Manville and NACE, corrosion costs the United States approximately $1.1 trillion annually — a 298.6% increase in nominal terms, escalating 3.5 times faster than inflation. Implementing proper cathodic protection requires an investment of less than 1% of overall costs and can yield a return on investment as high as 1:35.
E&S utilizes state-of-the-art tools including CorrCAD for precise analysis, complex multi-layer soil structure modeling, and polarization curve integration to deliver customized solutions that optimize performance and minimize costs.
