... ABSTRACT In this paper, the service status of anti-corrosion coatings on the roof of large crude oil storage tanks in five crude oil reserves located in different regions of China were investigated. It was found that the anticorrosion coatings on the top of most storage tanks in these reserves...

... ABSTRACT Designing robust corrosion protection system for the internals of pipeline in aggressive services is paramount for system integrity and business continuity. Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE) coatings are primarily utilized for corrosion protection on internals of pipelines. Pipes comes...

... ABSTRACT As the strategic significance of space operations intensifies, the need for advanced protection against radar frequency (RF) radiation on spacecraft surfaces has become paramount. This article focuses on the latest developments in protective coatings specifically designed to enhance...

... the way we will discuss the first use of polyethylene encasement, the advent of an enhanced polyethylene encasement, the use of metallized zinc, bonded dielectric coatings and the current risk-based Design Decision Model for corrosion control. This paper will discuss decades of research and performance...

... products were applied to samples of factory-primed decking. The coating adhesion of these trial specimens was measured and evaluated. The investigation ultimately revealed the use of a topcoat incompatible with the factory-applied deck primer. The results of the investigation were utilized to develop...

... ABSTRACT The performance of graphene coating was evaluated by exposing coated test panels to actual splash and spray zone conditions at offshore field for twelve months. The performance was compared to that of a test panel tested under laboratory control conditions. The performance...

... ABSTRACT The NORSOK standards are developed by the Norwegian Petroleum Industry for safe and effective operations in the industry. In the seventh edition of NORSOK M-501 standard (Nov 2022), new coating system specifications were added for high temperature service – systems 1D, 6C, 10A...

... ABSTRACT The service life of steel bridge coatings is occasionally shorter than the intended design life, resulting in the need for increased maintenance painting. Warranty clauses could improve the situation by incentivizing higher quality and requiring repair of defects which become apparent...

... are typically coated with protective layers on both internal and external surfaces, and manufacturers often incorporate sacrificial magnesium anodes as part of the corrosion management strategy. These anodes are designed to offer CP by delivering a current to the exposed metal areas, especially at points where...

... ABSTRACT Several coatings have been applied to oilfield equipment to extend their lifespan by protecting against wear and corrosion. These coatings enhance surface hardness and improve frictional and corrosion characteristics. Additionally, some of these coatings help ensure flow by minimizing...

... in the geometry, materials and coating selection can significantly minimize corrosion costs, prevent damage, maximize design life of structures, and reduce maintenance costs. Moreover, adequate monitoring and maintenance planning can effectively keep corrosion under control. Corrosion control can be optimized...

... ABSTRACT The natural and induced harsh conditions such as temperature, humidity, rain, and de-icing salt, influence the lifetime performance of different parts of a vehicle. The coating/metallic substrate interface experiences various degradation stages during exposure to corrosion conditions...

... ABSTRACT The paper discusses alternative methods of examining the performance of barrier coatings, the implications on protective methods, and recommendations for coating testing. INTRODUCTION The long term performance of protective coatings in corrosion control is impacted by many factors...

... systems all have a strong impact on the resulting electromagnetic fields around the transmission lines, and thus the resultant induced voltage on nearby pipelines. Pipeline AC Corrosion is a function of the induced AC pipeline voltage and is further influenced by pipeline material, pipeline coating...

... and/or replacement projects. The San Antonio Water System (SAWS) (1) took this approach when coating failures developed on the exterior of their 1.5-MG Foster Elevated Storage Tank (EST). A coating evaluation and testing determined that the existing exterior coating was a candidate for overcoating to economically...

... by environmental exposure or dissimilar metal connections. Due to their detailed geometry, fasteners make evenly applying coatings to metal substrates difficult while also providing a location for moisture build up within crevices. In harsh environmental conditions, where steel installations and construction...

... performance, or formulation requirements, required to meet expected lifespans. Since coatings serve as the first line of defense, UFGS references military-standard coatings, or open formulations, that have undergone rigorous testing. These specifications include detailed certification and standards...
