We report results of one-year field experience in monitoring atmospheric corrosion and developing field work of corrosion damages to assess the performance of the coatings that are currently 1 Paper No. 08024 used for the protection of tanks and structures in an industrial facility and four jet fuel storage stations. For this work, we selected sites located at representative climatic conditions of the Mexican territory. The sites included the industrial port of Altamira and the City of Villahermosa, near the coast of the north and southeast Gulf of Mexico, respectively; the city of Tapachula at the coast of the Pacific Ocean; and the inland cities of Mexicali, an extreme hot, dry and sunny location, and Guadalajara, a humid tempered city. Atmospheric conditions at the Gulf of Mexico were found to be very corrosive due to humidity, salinity and chemicals from industrial activity. An analysis of the coating systems and surface preparation that are currently used, as well as of historic records of the plant equipments revealed opportunities to improve the coating systems performance in the future.
