Abstract
The paper is dedicated to the creation of adaptive intelligent system that provides control and management of parameters of cathodic protection stations, taking into account changes in external conditions in some sections of pipelines. Multicriteria task of optimization of operation modes of cathodic protection stations is considered, as optimization is performed both by the criterion of optimality of protective potential distribution (uniformity of protective total potential distribution along the pipeline length) and by the criterion of minimum total protective current of stations. The system provides increase of reliability of electrochemical protection system as a whole and accordingly prevents possible emergencies at pipeline system, as well as reduces costs of current repair of pipelines, due to reliability and uninterrupted protection.
