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.
