Transfer tubes of petroleum are extensive network that responsible for petroleum and gas transference from petroleum field under the sea to platform and to stores in coast related centers. Occasionally, some part of this network damages, because of corrosion and result in stop production and also disorder in transfer and distribution. This matter, in addition to direct cost for corrosion and its resulting events, that is financial damage, lead to irreparable damages to environment too. So, it is important to know the factors of making corrosion and leakage in tubes. In this article, we analyzed the reason of corrosion and leakage of tube that use for transfer petroleum fro, a field to platform in bed in the Persian Gulf area. Then we offer some recommendations and solutions for decrease and prevent from further events in this connection
