Corrosion under insulation (CUI) is prevalent on major hazard plant, both on and offshore, including nuclear and chemical plants, oil refineries and offshore installations. It continues to represent a major safety threat, having been responsible for a number of major hydrocarbon releases and presenting industry with a range of business assurance and continuity challenges that carry with them significant costs each year. Following a scoping and prioritisation workshop in September 2022, HSE has created a number of work packages for shared research into this important topic and is now seeking sponsorship from interested parties.
