Pipeline coating is the engineered application of protective layers to the external and/or internal surfaces of line pipe to control corrosion, resist mechanical damage, improve hydraulic performance, ...

For natural gas pipeline developers hunting for a good deal on a 100-mile section of steel pipe, a recent advertisement claimed to have just what they are looking for. Following the cancelation of the ...

Even after nearly a decade, the use of whitewash ultraviolet (UV) protective coatings proved to be extremely successful in preserving and retaining the original dry film thickness (DFT) of fusion bond ...

With submarine pipelines increasing in diameter and extending into deeper waters and more difficult environments, design requirements for concrete weight coating often don't meet current needs. The ...

Corrosion of buried steel can be managed through one or some combination of the following four approaches: (1) the service life of the steel can be increased with additional steel incorporated into ...

Microbially influenced corrosion quietly drives some of the costliest, least predictable failures in pipeline infrastructure. Beth McDaniel, J.D. explores how a single non-toxic coating can now suppre ...
