Which of the following inspection methods should primarily be used to identify naphthenic acid corrosion...

API RP 571 on Naphthenic Acid Corrosion (NAC):

“NAC results in thinning, especially in areas of high velocity and turbulence. Standard UT or radiographic inspection followed by UT thickness monitoring is typically used to detect wall loss.”

“Advanced techniques like angle-beam or eddy current are not typically required.”

So, option A correctly reflects the most effective and widely used method.
