  "id": "MLC-T-OAG-001272",
  "term": "Electrical resistance probe",
  "field": "Oil and gas",
  "definition": "A device used to monitor corrosion by measuring the change in electrical resistance of a metallic element exposed to a corrosive environment. As the element corrodes, its cross-sectional area decreases, leading to an increase in electrical resistance. This method provides real-time or near real-time data on corrosion rates in pipelines and vessels.",
