Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method that includes: generating a corrosion risk profile for a first pipe region of at least one pipe region of a hydrocarbon pipeline configured to carry a hydrocarbon fluid, wherein generating the corrosion risk profile comprises: simulating hydraulic flow within a first sampling segment within the first pipe region using a hydraulic model; simulating water wetting within the first sampling segment using a water wetting model; interpolating between the first sampling segment and a second sampling segment using a nodal model; simulating corrosion for at least one first node between the first sampling segment and the second sampling segment using a corrosion model; and generating the corrosion risk profile for the first pipe region; analyzing the corrosion risk profile in order to calculate a corrosion risk score for the first pipe region.
