How to protect Arctic infrastructure from corrosion The development of the Trans-Arctic Corridor (TTC), which will significantly expand transportation along the Northern Sea Route, will require the creation of new infrastructure facilities. According to the data of the Ministry for the Development of the Far East and the Arctic, a comprehensive project for the development of the North Pole and the third transportation ring is now being developed. It includes 271 investment projects with a total value of more than 32 trillion rubles. But the construction of new infrastructure facilities in the far north has its specificities. To a large extent, this is related to temperature changes, which causes an increased risk of corrosion. In addition, in the Barents Sea, port infrastructure facilities are characterized by biocorrosion. According to a joint study by St. Petersburg State University and VNIIG, bacterial strains discovered in the water area contribute to the accelerated destruction of steel structures used in port structures and hydraulic structures.
