Systems and methods include a simulation process of soil corrosion. The simulation environment of soil corrosion includes an autoclave chamber for temperature, humidity, and pressure control of a soil sample. The corrosion rate is measured utilizing a four-way electrical resistance probe inserted at different locations in the soil sample. The properties of the soil are assessed utilizing a resistivity testing box and a potential of hydrogen (pH) sensor or oxidation reduction potential (ORP) probe inserted in the soil sample. The effect of packing density of the soil on the corrosion rate is assessed by incorporating a force exertion system. The corrosion rate is also measured for different moisture content levels. A potential to minimize the soil corrosion rate in the region of interest to protect the buried pipelines can be adjusted.
