Pipeline integrity is one of the key aspects for safe and efficient operation of offshore structures. Pipeline failures can result in significant economic and environmental consequences, making pipeline integrity management a top priority for the industry. One of the most effective tools for managing in-service pipelines is non-destructive testing (NDT). In this study, ultrasound and shearography inspections were performed on composite pipeline repairs over the course of approximately two years and their results were compared. The test samples evaluated were steel pipes with composite repairs and were submitted to just over 13,500 hours of salt-spray accelerated ageing, under three different temperatures. Test samples were removed from the salt-spray chambers at regular intervals and inspected by using field inspection apparatus. The results showed that both techniques provided consistent results between each inspection, although not always being consistent with each other. Maps comparing detections and accuracy of each technique were provided. The feasibility of each technique as a field tool for monitoring pipeline integrity was also evaluated with positive results. Furthermore, a modified Arrhenius methodology was proposed as a first step towards predicting long-term damage propagation.
