Abstract

The oil and gas industry is one of the important industries in Indonesia. Indonesia has abundant oil and natural gas resources and is one of the largest oil producers in Southeast Asia. The Indonesian government has an important role in the oil and gas industry, by regulating production activities through regulatory bodies such as the Upstream Oil and Gas Business Activities Implementation Agency (BPMIGAS). Trunklines in the oil and gas sector are likened to heart arteries by carrying important life supplies such as water, natural gas, and petroleum products through underground distribution networks. One of the problems that occurs with trunklines is corrosion. This research aims to analyze the implementation of the cathodic protection method on the SPU Nglobo-MGS (Main Gathering Station) Menggungtrunkline, Pertamina Exploration (EP) Cepu, by placing a sacrificial anode to prevent corrosion on the Trunkline. This protection method is one of the most widely used methods because it has been proven to be effective in inhibiting corrosion. Based on the analysis carried out on the SPU Nglobo-MGS Menggungtrunkline using a magnesium alloy, it was obtained that the weight required for the sacrificial anode was 20946 kg and the number of anodes was 863 pcs.
