Protective coatings are ubiquitous on offshore oil structures. As with most situations, the use of coatings is driven by myriad factors unique to the industry. The paper will provide an overview of the types of structures, the coatings used in different zones of the structures, and the pragmatic and regulatory criteria which influence the coating process.
The In-Situ internal coating is a viable alternative for pipeline rehabilitation of corrode pipe and cost effective compared to replacement with new pipelines.

Changing conditions in the Oil and Gas industry are yielding greater corrosion protection challenges to the owners and operators of refineries, terminals, pipelines, railcars etc. Internal lining schemes which have traditionally been used for the storage and transport of crude oil and refined fuels may no longer be appropriate. The aggressive nature of crude oil (higher temperatures and more sour nature), high purity refined products and the increased use of biofuels globally necessitate the demand for better linings and more certain test results.
In the oil and gas industry there is information on current fundamental training for contractors and certification programs that cover industry standards and practical aspects of selecting, specifying and using coatings safely, effectively and economically to protect structures in harsh oil and gas atmospheric environments. These certification programs are for both inspectors and contractors that provide quality assurance/quality control on industrial coating projects. Once implemented with a properly well-written specification for a specific substrate (steel, metal, previously coated), ensures a quality project for the owner.
