In this study, we systematically investigate electrochemical hydrogen charging conditions equivalent to hydrogen gas pressures relevant for hydrogen transportation in X65 pipeline steel. By performing hydrogen gas permeation, a relationship for Sieverts' law was established, which was used in combination with electrochemical hydrogen permeation to determine the equivalent hydrogen pressure. The results revealed that cathodic protection simulated condition at –1050 mVAg/AgCl was equivalent to a hydrogen pressure of 12.3 bar. The addition of thiourea, a hydrogen recombination poison, and changing the applied potential in the cathodic direction increased the equivalent hydrogen pressure. In this way, an electrochemical charging condition equivalent to a potential hydrogen gas pressure for hydrogen transportation (200 bar) was determined.
