Which risk accelerates pitting corrosion when injecting seawater into offshore oil pipelines?

💡 Explanation

Subsea pipelines can suffer corrosion when seawater is injected. Inhibitor effectiveness timing exceeds its constraints, leading to the breakdown of protective films because seawater injection locally overrides the inhibitors on the steel; therefore, local electrochemical differences drive corrosion rather than uniform protection.
