(Pipeline, Oil & Gas) Advantages of a True 100% Epoxy, Pipeline Coating in Cold Weather vs. The Comm

Product Number: 22-COAT_DEC21

Author: Nicholas Barnett

Publication Date: 2021

$20.00

Coating systems are critical in the mitigation of corrosion on pipelines and their integrated parts.
Epoxies offer a multitude of positive characteristics including: high adhesion at a chemical level,
excellent abrasion resistance, and reduced water permeation rates when compared to vinyl
esters. A newly engineered cold weather epoxy (“Epoxy-20F”) improves upon these epoxy
characteristics and exceeds that of vinyl esters.

51316-6970-Development Of Spray-Applied Pipeline Erosion-Protective Epoxy Linings

Product Number: 51316-6970-SG

ISBN: 6970 2016 CP

Author: Osmay OHarriz

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

This paper aims to present a novel class of pipeline protective lining materials that provide erosion-corrosion resistance combined with negligible wear to spray equipment. These coatings have been formulated with a blend of thermoplastic fillers rather than the traditional ceramic fillers used for erosion resistance.

51318-11245-Abrasive Blasted Surface Preparation – Does the Pipeline Coating Industry Really Understand it?

Product Number: 51318-11245-SG

Author: Shiwei William Guan

Publication Date: 2018

$20.00

Three recent international pipeline projects illustrate that the typical surface profile height and abrasive blast cleaning requirements in today’s coating standards and specifications have not been sufficient to define the adequate level of the abrasive blasting.

AMPP TR21473-2024, In-Situ Coating of Steel Pipelines via Pigging

Product Number: AMPP TR21473-2024

Publication Date: 2024

$109.00

This report provides the most current technology and industry practices for the internal in-situ cleaning and coating application in an existing steel pipeline. This report presents general practices and preferences in regard to the cleaning, surface preparation, drying, and the application of a coating in a steel pipeline by the pig (scraper) batching method. It is applicable to onshore or offshore steel pipelines in all industries including the oil and gas gathering, distribution, and transmission industries. It is also applicable to welded steel water and brine handling pipelines.

Coatings Used in Conjunction with Cathodic Protection - Shielding vs NonShielding Pipeline Coatings

Product Number: 41212-693-SG

Author: Richard Norsworthy

Publication Date: 2012

$20.00

When using cathodic protection on coated pipelines, end users must consider the problems that exist if the coating disbonds (loses adhesion). Many in the pipeline industry assume cathodic protection will solve their external corrosion problems without truly understanding the relationship between the coating and cathodic protection.

CP Shielding and Pipeline Coatings

Product Number: 41206-285-SG

Author: Greg Ruschau

Publication Date: 2006

$20.00

Shielding of cathodic protection (CP) by pipeline coatings poses a serious threat to pipeline integrity. The difficulty in pipeline coating selection to avoid shielding is that the same properties that make a pipeline coating a good corrosion mitigation material can also lead to CP shielding. The key to proper coating selection is to select a coating that has the necessary properties to provide good corrosion protection but also one that, when disbondment and failure occurs, fails in such a way to allow effective cathodic protection.

Key Points Specifically For Transmission Pipeline Coating

Product Number: 51322-17760-SG

Author: Ron Raphoon

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

The bulk of a pipeline coating is shop applied and those processes are typically automated. Because
the automation of pipeline coating has so many controls, there is little need to address the inspection on the body of the mainline coatings. As such, this paper will address inspection of pipeline specific coating types and their unique considerations in a field environment. It will address concerns around tie-ing into other coating types and compatibility.

Laser Scanning to Evaluate Pipeline Joint (Girth) Weld Quality And Coatability

Product Number: MECC23-19887-SG

Author: Aman Rastogi; Bryan Kirchmer

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

Carbon steel pipelines are widely used in the oil and gas industry as a fast and secured means for transportation of hydrocarbons, water and other fluids from their source to the destination. Pipelines are routed through varying environments such as land, sea, deserts, sabkha, marshy areas, which exposes the external surfaces of the pipelines to corrosive environment. These pipelines are often used for transportation of different fluids, which are generally corrosive due to their chemical composition.

NACE TM0102-2023, Measurement of Protective Coating Electrical Conductance on Underground Pipelines

Product Number: NACE TM0102-2023

Publication Date: 2023

$109.00

This Association for Materials Protection and Performance (AMPP) standard test method presents guidelines and procedures for use primarily by corrosion control personnel in the pipeline industry to determine the general condition of a pipeline coating. These techniques are used to measure the coating conductance (inverse of coating resistance) on sections of underground pipelines. This test method applies only to pipe coated with dielectric coatings.

When surveying a coated pipeline system, it may be necessary to determine the conductance of the coating. The conductance of a coating can vary considerably along the pipeline. Variations may be caused by changes in average soil resistivity, terrain, and quality of construction. To obtain data for coating conductance calculations, interrupted structure-to-electrolyte potentials and line current readings are taken at pre-selected intervals. It should be noted that the average soil resistivity has a direct effect on the coating conductance measurement. Because soil resistivity can affect the coating conductance, it must be known when evaluating a section of a pipeline coating.

The Gas Fracking Boom: Expanded Opportunities for the Protective Coatings Industry

Product Number: 41214-857-SG

Author: E. Bud Senkowski

Publication Date: 2014

$20.00

A new era of natural gas exploration is spreading across the continental United States and Canada. Through a technique called hydraulic fracturing (fracking), huge deposits of oil shale, like the Marcellus and Utica deposits that extend from the Appalachians and into Canada, are now producing enough gas to meet North America’s needs for the next 14 years. The boom in gas exploration has opened up new markets for pipeline and joint coating materials to provide corrosion protection.
