With asset usage critial 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. Read…
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…
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.
Monitoring for corrosion is extremely important for steel assets because if it goes unnoticed, corrosion can lead to costly and dangerous issues — including leaks, equipment failures, or even injury. Despite its importance, corrosion monitoring has been a challenge in the industry as carbon steel assets stretch for miles and…
While the gradual corrosion of steel is a costly problem for the oil & gas industry, flash rust — the sudden onset of corrosion on a potentially massive scale — may be even trickier to resolve. True to its name, flash rust can occur without warning and take over a…
From upstream wells, risers, drilling rigs, or offshore platforms, to midstream pipelines, storage, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals, to downstream refineries, fighting CUI and major corrosion has been an uphill battle and a major cost in the operation of oil and gas facilities, according to NACE International’s “International Measures…
While corrosion is a serious issue in virtually all oil, gas, pipeline and industrial facilities, it is a particular challenge for the liquid natural gas (LNG) sector. LNG facilities must remain corrosion resistant despite rapid growth in areas prone to high humidity, rainfall and monsoons. Read the Full article here.
EonCoat is an innovative coating that provides LNG facilities a long-term solution to fighting atmospheric corrosion even in monsoon vulnerable environments while minimizing production downtime and increasing safety. Read the full article here.
Industrial maintenance and protective coatings are formulated to provide protection for exterior and interior substrates against corrosion, abrasion, thermal, and chemical and UV degradation. These corrosion control coating systems are generally used in areas where extreme environments exist such as intense heat, salt water and other harsh climates, such as…
While corrosion is a serious issue in virtually all oil, gas, pipeline, and industrial facilities, it is a particular challenge for the LNG sector, whose facilities must remain corrosion resistant despite rapid growth in areas prone to high humidity, rainfall, and monsoons.
