A system to mitigate false trips of a valve that supplies water to a piping system in a fire suppression system includes at least one edge device, a control circuit, and at least one user device. The at least one edge device monitors a parameter corresponding to at least one of a corrosion, a presence of water, a differential pressure across the valve, and a temperature in the piping system of the fire suppression system. The control circuit includes one or more processors and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the control circuit to receive an indication of the parameter monitored by the at least one edge device, predict whether a valve tripping event is expected to occur based on the received indication, and in response to predicting that the valve tripping event is expected to occur, provide the prediction that the valve tripping event can occur for remedial action.

A system for determining a corrosion level of a pipeline includes a corrosion coupon received from the pipeline, a database, a first computer, a second computer, a neural network, and a third computer. The database includes existing data indicative of corrosion of a plurality of previously analyzed pipelines. The first computer receives corrosion data of the corrosion coupon and uploads the corrosion data to the database. The second computer uploads calculations performed on the corrosion data to the database. The neural network receives the corrosion data and the calculations from the database and outputs a corrosion level of the pipeline based on the corrosion data and the calculations. Further, the neural network is trained on the existing data from the plurality of previously analyzed pipelines so that the corrosion level is based on a combination of the corrosion data, the calculations, and the existing data. Finally, a third computer receives the corrosion level and generates a report of the corrosion level of the pipeline.

Disclosed are systems and methods for detecting the erosion and corrosion effects of solids during oil and/or gas production. An erosion corrosion detector (BCD) is positioned in fluid communication with a pipe in a production facility such that a sensor element of the BCD contacts at least a partial stream of produced fluid in the pipe. Changes in one or more physical measurement of the BCD and/or changes in pressure drop across the sensor element are monitored over time. The changes are interpreted to identify whether there is loss of materials (e.g., metal) in the production facility, quantify of this loss, and determine the mechanisms through which this loss is occurring. A control system can receive the change in the physical measurement and/or the pressure drop over time as input into a control strategy for controlling a well control valve to control a rate of production of well fluids.
