Corrosion under insulation (CUI) refers to the external corrosion of piping and vessels that occurs underneath externally clad/jacked insulation as as a result of the penetration of water.  Most facility managers, engineers, and maintenance and construction personnel now know that corrosion under insulation (CUI) exists and, left to  its own devices, can cause serious problems and even have catastropic consequences as corrosion rates are not uniform and are therefore difficult to monitor.

It is also widely known that the results of CUI are costly.  Most studies on the
