Alternating current (AC) interference is a growing concern for pipelines and buried infrastructure located near high-voltage power lines. Without proper mitigation, AC interference can create significant corrosion risks, SAFETY hazards, and damage to equipment. We provide full AC mitigation solutions that combine engineering and field expertise.
From initial assessment and data collection to system design, installation, testing, and long-term maintenance, we manage projects from start to finish. Our services include turnkey program management, from concept to commission.
Pipelines running alongside overhead transmission lines are subject to dangerous levels of induced AC voltage. Over time, this stray current accelerates corrosion, compromises coatings, and increases the risk of electrical shock. Proper mitigation is essential in order to:
Reduce corrosion and extend pipeline lifespan
Ensure operational SAFETY for personnel
Ensure compliance with regulations
Minimize downtime and repairs
Our team has decades of experience identifying, evaluating, and implementing the right AC mitigation needs for every unique project.
Every successful mitigation plan begins with accurate data. Our technicians conduct detailed field surveys to measure induced voltages, soil resistivity, and coating performance. This ensures that every design is backed by real-world field data.
After data analysis, our in-house designers tailor AC mitigation system designs to fit your needs. We consider soil properties, pipeline length, proximity to power lines, and operational requirements to create a cost-effective solution.
Our field crews are trained to install AC mitigation systems SAFELY and efficiently, following all engineering and regulatory standards. We ensure all materials are properly connected, tested, and documented, ensuring long-term system functionality
Ongoing performance evaluation and verification is critical to keeping your system effective over time. We provide testing, remote monitoring, and data analysis to confirm that voltages remain within acceptable limits.
AC interference isn’t just a technical challenge—it’s a SAFETY and reliability issue. Contact us today to schedule an assessment.
