Technical Bulletin:
Raparound™ Pile Anode Survives Arctic Winters

03.22.2006

Introduction

Deepwater Corrosion Services, Inc. was commissioned in 2004 to develop a pile anode strong enough and reliable enough to survive the deep freezes of the Cook Inlet, Alaska. The result was the Raparound pile anode. Now in the midst of the third winter in service, the Raparound is the only CP solution on the market for such harsh conditions. The photos below were taken after the second winter in service (Feb 2006); not a single failure or low CP reading was found.
