About the Conference

Corrosion is a major challenge impacting asset integrity, safety, reliability, and lifecycle costs across industries such as Oil & Gas, Petrochemicals, Power, Chemicals, Manufacturing, Marine, and Infrastructure. As India advances in industrial growth and energy transition, corrosion management has become a critical priority for sustainable and efficient operations.

Bharat Corrosion Meet 2026 (2nd International Conference & Exhibition on Corrosion Control & Integrity Management) is a leading platform connecting corrosion engineers, asset owners, EPC companies, inspection professionals, and technology providers. The conference focuses on corrosion prevention, protective coatings, cathodic protection, corrosion inhibitors, corrosion under insulation (CUI), non-destructive testing (NDT), inspection technologies, digitalization, AI-driven corrosion monitoring, asset integrity management, and risk-based inspection (RBI).

Organized by AOCP and MatCorr, the event promotes innovation, best practices, knowledge exchange, and industry collaboration to extend asset life, reduce downtime, enhance safety, and support sustainable infrastructure development.
