Corrosion costs US industry more than $150 billion per year, according to a survey carried out by NACE (The Corrosion Society). The oil industry's annual corrosion costs are estimated in the same survey at about $15 billion. Naturally, there is a large economic incentive to mitigate the impact of corrosion on our business. Our experience is that expenditures in corrosion control have a large multiplier in saving the costs associated with corrosion damage. In corrosion, as in other areas, an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound in potential losses. Shell is a leader in applying advanced management and technical solutions to reduce the risks associated with corrosion.
