Abstract: A ventilation system for insulated pipe or pipeline to prevent corrosion thereof is discussed. The ventilation system can include an outer skin wrapped around the insulated pipe or pipeline, the outer skin separated from the insulation pipe by stand-off supports to form an annular chamber within the system. The system has a vent screen along a bottom side of the outer skin and a gable running along the top side of the outer skin, the gable having a number of openings therethrough to allow air to flow in through the vent screen, through the annular chamber and out through the gable openings, drawing moisture from the insulation thereby preventing corrosion of the pipe or pipeline.
