One reason why our coating method is such a highly rated system for pipeline protection is because of our even coating method.⭐ Our two-part epoxy coating is mixed and loaded between two pigs. As it moves down the line, a slug/pill places pressure on both ends at a controlled rate of travel, thanks to our Multiple Pass Flood Coat System. This allows for uniform coating coverage on the line, even where pitting is present. After every pass, we undertake a detailed quality control procedure to measure the dry film thickness and ensure the coating is properly applied. The result? An even, thin coating application that protects against corrosion, lowers friction and helps reduce operating costs.

Corbec's blog! - The #welding of #steel prior to or after #galvanization is common, both are compatible with the objective of providing excellent corrosion protection. The processes, however, involve specific considerations, recommended as best practices, to ensure the viability of both the structural integrity and the intended corrosion protection.

GWT for Rust-colored Pipelines: Numerous pipelines are distributed throughout the factory. Visual inspection revealed that pipelines with failed paint coatings need to undergo corrosion detection. Today, we used Guided Wave Testing (GWT) for rapid corrosion screening of the pipelines. Although the pipelines are all rust-colored, the results of the guided wave inspection are significantly different. It can be easily distinguished that, in this case, more corrosion occurs near the welds of the 3-inch pipe, while the 8-inch pipe signals show only rusting without severe corrosion. This helps the maintenance unit to more accurately repair pipeline corrosion and prevent leakage accidents. #MakeGWTeasier #Corrosion

Anti-corrosion, Wear-resistant coating for pipe and tank

Corrosion is dangerous, don’t ignore? It is like cancer and if we don’t act immediately it may jeopardize our asset and business. Even small color change or black spot to be checked immediately to address it. During Preventive Maintenance activity or during plant walk down check for abnormalities in pipes and equipment . Protecting metal surfaces from corrosion involves several effective measures, including: 1. Applying protective coatings such as paint, powder coating, or plating to create a barrier against corrosive elements. 2. Using corrosion-resistant metals such as stainless steel or aluminum for the construction of surfaces and structures. 3. Implementing cathodic protection techniques, such as sacrificial anodes or impressed current systems, to prevent metal corrosion in environments like water or soil. 4. Regularly inspecting and maintaining metal surfaces to identify and address early signs of corrosion, thereby preventing its further progression. 5. Utilizing corrosion inhibitors, such as coatings or chemical treatments, to mitigate the impact of corrosive substances on metal surfaces. #corrosion #corrosionprotection #corrosionmanagement #pipelineintegrity #tankstorage

Here's a great example of what #Corrosion #Engineers do! A client needed ICE to perform a structural integrity test for their steel processing plant. The plants' "washdown water" had very high salinity which corroded the steel quicker than usual, in some locations worse than others. 1) ICE created a corrosion risk map for tracking and predicting risk 2) Updated the coating specification to match the risk type 3) Carry out annual audit inspections to track risk and optimize repair This proactive approach saved the processing plant millions of dollars in reduced repairs and no #downtime.

When it comes to shotblasting aluminium alloy products that contain impurities of silicon, magnesium, zinc, copper, etc., safety is not only a priority - it's paramount. In these scenarios, adapting shot blasting equipment and dedusting requires careful attention because of the risk of explosion. But how exactly shot blasting machines and dust collectors must be adapted and what are Ex zones and ATEX directives.
