Challenge
Rehab every 5 years on the coating was required due to;
- severe environmental conditions on site during application
- limited time for coating maintenance
- severe corrosion due to weathering and failure of existing coating system
- Severe exposure conditions (C5-I and C5-M)
- Stronghly reduced coating performance
Major Client Requirements
- Extending the service life of the asset
- Time and money saving solution
- Environmental, installation and worker safe approach
Solution
Effectively exceeded the client’s requirements while extending their maintenance cycles
- Eliminate blasting, tarping and conditioning
- No need for high power diesel generators, compressors, heaters (no emission and extensive logistics)
- Using a single component, non-aging coating system without any VOC
- Reducing the amount of PPE, breathing equipment, etc.
- Reducing the scafffolding strength, no abrasives weight to consider
- Increase productivity due to easy application in various climatcconditions
- Reducing waste and clean-up, no hazardous remains
- No effect on the refinery process
