CATHODIC PROTECTION OF A GUYED TOWER IN 1000 FEET OF WATER

The Lena guyed tower and its 20 associated guylines were installed in 1000 ft (305 m) of water in 1983 in Mississippi Canyon Block 280 in the Gulf of Mexico. The design, installation, post construction inspection, and routine monitoring of the 2.4 million lb (1.1 million kg) of anodes, which provide underwater protection for the tower and guylines, are reviewed.
