With asset utilization critical and community and regulatory pressure always looming, it is essential that tank farm owners proactively prevent any loss of containment with reliable, cost effective corrosion protection. This is crucial since atmospheric corrosion is one of the main culprits of tank leaks, containment loss, and early replacement.…
Oil and gas companies can no longer rely on consistently rising oil and gas prices to make their projects sustainable. That doesn’t mean profitability is impossible, but rather that it will come — at least in part — from increasing efficiency rather than simply increasing productivity. While prices are starting…
When an electric utility in the Southeastern United States sought to protect above ground natural gas pipeline against corrosion, the goal was to cost effectively do so while minimizing downtime and environmental impact. Read the full article here on pages 20-26.

In a collaborative effort designed to improve vital protection of offshore assets, the Oil & Gas Technology Centre (OGTC) is successfully conducting trials of an advanced anti-corrosion coating on two North Sea offshore platforms. The mission of the OGTC, which is jointly funded by the government, is to establish a…
In the oil and gas industry, protecting massive carbon steel assets from corrosion is a continual challenge around the world, particularly along coastline exposed to high humidity and salty air near oceans or other bodies of water. Read the full article here.

Oil and gas major Chevron (San Ramon, California, USA) recently revised its engineering standards to include a novel water-borne spray coating system to protect against both atmospheric corrosion and corrosion under insulation (CUI) at many of its worldwide facilities. Read the full article here.
Industrial facilities can benefit from scheduling corrosion protection of their carbon steel structures and equipment during seasonal slowdowns, when such projects have a minimal impact on output. Read the full article here.
