With decades of proven expertise, we deliver first-class cathodic and anodic protection solutions to clients worldwide. Backed by extensive resources and long-term partnerships, we manage projects of any scale, complexity, or location, ensuring reliable service from start to completion.
PSE Engineering provides turnkey installations with superior project management, in-house material manufacturing, and a trained workforce to accomplish each project. Our field staff construction employees include project managers, superintendents, foremen, operators, commercial drivers, and laborers. PSE Engineering operates the required support equipment (excavators, backhoes, trenchers, auger drills, etc.) to meet our North Africa and Middel East customer construction requirements. All personnel have the required safety training, certifications, and adhere to a strict drug testing policy.
Shallow installations are a common method of protecting valuable pipeline assets. The systems involve strategically placing individual anodes or strings of anodes to provide distributed protection from corrosion. Installation utilizes augering, trenching or hydrovac. Leveraging superior project management and in-house material manufacturing, PSE Engineering provides a best-in-class experience for our customers.
Deep Anode Groundbeds provide maximum protection within a minimal footprint. These systems are ideal for well casings, pipelines, and high corrosive environments. With years of experience in cathodic protection, our qualified teams deliver turnkey solutions, ensuring safety and quality are top priorities. We are committed to offering reliable protection for critical infrastructure.
Mitigation systems are essential for reducing corrosion risks by dissipating harmful AC currents affecting pipelines near high-voltage power lines. With superior modelling, design, and expert construction teams we have streamlined the installation of AC mitigation systems, safeguarding pipelines within joint utility corridors.
PSE Engineering offers comprehensive corrosion engineering and concrete cathodic protection solutions, tailored for steel-reinforced concrete structures like bridges, parking garages, buildings, and marine structures such as piers and wharves. Our expert team delivers a full suite of services, including engineering, research, inspection, and consulting, ensuring top-tier protection and longevity for your infrastructure.
Rectifier installation is completed by certified personnel. PSE Engineering designs the correct rectifier for your application, can build mounting frames, install, and commission. We do replacements and entirely new systems, small to large equipment.
Linear anode systems are designed to deliver localized cathodic protection current in areas that are difficult to protect. We’ve installed over 40 KM of linear anode systems along pipeline networks. Our certified construction personnel are skilled in operating near pipelines and are equipped to use plowing and trenching equipment when necessary, ensuring effective and efficient installation even in challenging environments.
PSE Engineering corrosion engineering services are developed to protect the entire lifecycle of your infrastructure. From evaluating the degree of current corrosion and recommending next steps to helping implement cathodic protection systems to prevent its occurrence, PSE Engineering corrosion engineering services provide solutions for any situation. PSE Engineering supplies a wide range of consultancy services that includes the application of advanced engineering expertise, hazard and risk mitigation, integrity management, asset optimization, legislative compliance and due diligence.

PSE Engineering technicians are experienced and familiar with the reclamation requirements related to pipeline construction (especially maintenance related) activities. Our techs can serve as the owner’s representative and provide guidance to successfully remediate the work site to a quality consistent with the pre-disturbance condition, after pipeline work has been completed.
Corrosion occurs wherever metal surfaces come into contact with electrolytes in which oxygen is present. In most cases, this electrolyte is water mixed with additives such as salt or other chemical substances. The strength and type of corrosion depends on the composition. Corrosion protection is therefore necessary to maintain the long-term stability of buildings that are made of or contain metals.
CP or cathodic corrosion protection is used either as a legally prescribed supplement to passive corrosion protection such as a coating to provide long-term protection. For other objects where coating is not technically possible or not practical, cathodic corrosion protection is used independently. This is typically the case with sheet piling in harbor areas, where the abrasion of a coating is so severe due to the sandy environment that it would not last anyway.
Corrosion is an oxidation process that always requires a combination of oxygen and moisture. The original principle is the affinity of steel in combination with oxygen to go into a lower energy state and that is corrosion. At the atomic level, the metal reacts to the presence of oxygen and a liquid by releasing electrons, causing it to decompose.
Cathodic corrosion protection works by turning the metal of the protected object into a cathode in the electrical circuit by means of an electrical source. In this way, electrons are supplied to the object to be protected, which are then available at the phase boundary (where the metal comes into contact with oxygen and a liquid) and therefore no electrons can be removed from the atomic structure of the metal. This prevents oxidation and corrosion.
Various environmental protection and safety regulations require the use of Cathodic Protection. Depending on the environment in which the protected object is used, the regulations of the standards and regulations of the respective responsible bodies come into force. Cathodic corrosion protection is mandatory for all liquids or gases that are hazardous to drinking water, toxic, harmful to the environment or could explode.
The DVGW (German Technical and Scientific Association for Gas and Water) defines a set of regulations that stipulates the requirements and obligations for the protection of buildings. Potential danger to the environment must be averted. For example, CP is important to ensure the tightness of metal pipelines in order to prevent safety-relevant operating materials from leaking into the groundwater.
Passive corrosion protection can also provide a remedy, but only if the coating is completely undamaged and the surface is thus separated from oxygen and moisture. Passive protection alone is therefore never safe and is usually secured by cathodic corrosion protection. In some cases, cathodic corrosion protection is even used exclusively.
