**OFIS' SOLUTION -** OFIS produced a corrosion prevention guide which provides guidelines and serves as a tool to safely prevent corrosion during the plant's operational phase, including:

- Assessing the existing water network set-up;
- Defining risk analysis criteria and assessing the associated risk levels;
- Identifying corrosion-related factors and threats;
- Defining preventive actions to avoid any critical situations;
- Determining performance indicators and set targets;
- Defining any remedial action required if thresholds are exceeded.
