Standards, Training and Certification in the Oil and Gas Industry

Product Number: 51216-014-SG

Author: Ernst Toussaint

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

In the oil and gas industry there is information on current fundamental training for contractors and certification programs that cover industry standards and practical aspects of selecting, specifying and using coatings safely, effectively and economically to protect structures in harsh oil and gas atmospheric environments. These certification programs are for both inspectors and contractors that provide quality assurance/quality control on industrial coating projects. Once implemented with a properly well-written specification for a specific substrate (steel, metal, previously coated), ensures a quality project for the owner.

Steel Bridge Shop Painting Issues and Answers: The FDOT Experience

Product Number: 41206-289-SG

Author: Steve Duke, Linda Houk, Ernst Toussaint, Douglas Reardon, William Wallhausser

Publication Date: 2006

$20.00

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) spends over $50 million in steel bridge fabrication and shop painting annually. According to a recent Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) sponsored study by Appleman, approximately 7% of the cost of a steel bridge is budgeted for blast cleaning and primer application in most shops. FDOT knows that proper surface preparation and primer application are the best ways to assure long-term corrosion protection.

Surface And Defect Preparation Using Atmospheric Plasma For Non-Metallic Pipe Repair

Product Number: 51322-18175-SG

Author: Ahmed Hassanin, Chris Alexander, Jeffrey Piascik, Peter Yancey, Glenn Astolfi, Jeff Pavelka

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Composite repair systems’ performance relies heavily on the levels of adhesion between the initial layer of the composite system and the substrate. Enhanced adhesion translates to improved performance of the composite system since better bonding (whether mechanical or chemical) enhances the load transfer from the substrate to the composite layers as well as limit the porosity that would allow liquid or gas molecules to flow through. The aim of this study was to prove quantitatively how the APS atmospheric plasma surface preparation can improve the performance of composite repair systems whether on leaking or nonleaking defects.

Surface Finishing of Welds Prior to Coating; Weld Comparator Only

Product Number: 22001-1

ISBN: Plastic Weld Comparator Only

$85.00

This visual comparator is used with the latest version of NACE SP0178 (sold separately), mentioned in Appendix C, to determine whether welds are suitable for coating. This durable T Grade ABS plastic weld replica is molded from actual welds and includes 14 welds for comparison of various degrees of surface finishing (full-seam welds, skip welds, butt welds, lap welds, and others). Use of this visual aid will facilitate weld inspection by the end user.

Surface Preparation: Advances in Chemical Coating Removal

Product Number: 41207-341-SG

Author: David A. Hunter, Skid C. Thomason

Publication Date: 2007

$20.00

This paper introduces the available technology of chemical coating removal as an alternative to mechanical coating removal by comparing and contrasting the advantages and disadvantages of each chemical coating removal technology. Due to the high cost and environmental drawbacks of mechanical methods of coating removal, chemical coating removal systems have advanced as a cost effective and environmentally friendly way to remove coatings that are highly cost effective on a per square foot basis cost comparison. The presentation will discuss all chemical coating removal technology, features and benefits.

Surface Soluble Salts Impact on Protective Coating Performance

Product Number: 51220-277-SG

Author: Andrew Recker

Publication Date: 2020

$20.00

To address questions and concerns in the protective and marine coatings market, new laboratory data has been generated regarding corrosion rates and mechanisms that will help eliminate some of the assumptions regarding the role of soluble salts. These assumptions include soluble salt types such as chloride, sulfate, and nitrate along with the resulting conjugate corrosion products.
