Petroleum produced in Turkey, which is exported from Iraq by Kerkük–Ceyhan Pipeline and Azerbaijan by Bakü-Ceyhan Pipeline is exported to world at BOTAŞ Plant. Reinforced Concrete (RC) platform of the plant has significant structural and material problems. It has been found out that some RC pile columns have been losing their bearing capacity. Since concrete used in the structure was not designed to resist sulfate and salt effects, observations have revealed that columns and beams were damaged due to these effects. If the necessary precautions are not taken as soon as possible the structure is likely to complete its economical service life in the near future. The structure needs to be repaired and strengthened. This paper presents some technical suggestions to overcome the problem. Keywords: Concrete; Steel reinforced concrete, Erosion; Corrosion.
