Abstract :
The presented method is based on use of SIMS analysis. SIMS analysis allowed experimental demonstration of 100 ... 300 times increase in the dissolved hydrogen concentration at a depth of 1 ... 20 mm in the pipe wall after 20 years of operation. The hydrogen dissolved in the pipe wall from a gas flow in a gas-main pipeline.
