Les plates-formes fixes de forage qui supportent les puits d’exploitation des gisements offshore sont toujours soumises à un système de protection cathodique, comme l'ensemble des ouvrages métalliques à la mer. Les puits sont en contact électrique avec la masse de la plate-forme, ce qui conduit à ce qu'ils soient eux aussi soumis à la protection cathodique. 3, record 1, French, - protection%20cathodique
