Predictions of corrosions in pipelines are valuable. Based on the available data sets, it is critical and useful, for example in preventive maintenance. This paper deals with this problem by two powerful statistical tools, i.e. theory of records and non-homogeneous Poisson process, for modeling location of corrosions. These methods may be used for comparing performances of different pipelines via a quantitative approach. For illustration purposes, we applied the obtained results for a real pipeline in order to prediction the next corrosions based on the available data. Finally, some concluding results and further remarks are given.
