In a constant progress of a regulatory and environmental context, the diagnostic and the expertise of the corrosion, the determination of its causes and factors, and the proposed solutions to this phenomenon represent a real challenge for all stakeholders of industry. We propose in this paper to a complete study of the corrosion risk in the case of water pumping stations, based on some industrial methods of risk analysis (FMEA) and multiple laboratory tests and analysis. Finally we have proposed a masterplan (chart) as perspectives, indicating the encounter corrosion problems in the case of the northern pumping station of Fez city (as case study). The masterplan includes also the corresponding solutions, that can stop or minimize degradation of the focused equipments by the various mechanisms of corrosion. Our proposals will serve as reference during futur installation of new water equipments, or during the study and choice of appropriate materials in the Water Studies Department.
