Method and system for corrosion integrity assessment for non-scrapable gas flowlines using artificial intelligence

A method for a flowline corrosion manager, comprising:

• obtaining, by a computer processor, gas flowline data regarding a first pipe component in a gas production network, wherein gas flowline data comprises real-time operating sensor data, cathodic protection status updates, and corrosion inhibitor compliance data over the gas production network, wherein operating sensor data comprises flow rate data and pressure data;
• determining, by the computer processor and based on the gas flowline data, whether an operational upset condition exists for the first pipe component, wherein the operational upset condition comprises flow stagnation, corrosion inhibitor unavailability, or intermittent operation;
• in response to determining that an operational upset condition exists, determining internal corrosion assessment data for the first pipe component, wherein internal corrosion assessment data comprises an internal report identifying internal corrosion presence in the gas production network;
• determining, by the computer processor and based on the gas flowline data, external corrosion assessment data for the first pipe component, wherein external corrosion assessment data comprises an external report identifying external corrosion presence in the gas production network;
• determining, by the computer processor, whether the internal corrosion assessment data and the external corrosion assessment data satisfy an integrity criterion for the first pipe component;
• and
• transmitting, automatically and in real-time, by the computer processor in response to the internal corrosion assessment data and the external corrosion assessment data failing to satisfy the integrity criterion, a command that implements a remediation operation for the first pipe component, wherein the remediation operation comprises a procedure that adjusts the gas production network to mitigate internal corrosion and minimize external corrosion and at least, in part, address the operational upset condition.
