For too many people, quality is something nebulous and immeasurable. General terms like “craftsman like manner” have been used but with mixed results. What is required is a “team” effort where all parties involved understand not only the scope and desired outcome but also have a means of communicating what is meant by “craftsman like manner”. The impact of one part to the overall approach in advancing quality in coating operations, using qualified contractors, is discussed.
Poor performance of materials…is why…more realistic application conditions are needed. An ultra-tolerant material, compatible with flash rust, humidity, poor profile and cold application conditions, potentially with Ultra High Pressure (UHP) water jetting, is presented in this paper.

The fire water system on an offshore facility is a critical system. In the event of a fire, this system must not only deliver water for active fire management, but the system must also survive the worst-case scenarios of blast, jet fire and or hydrocarbon fire and for a duration anticipated in that scenario. The fire water system must also survive the duration of time needed for the safe evacuation of personnel from the facility.This paper addresses the complexities involved in the use of composite pipes for fire water applications. It focuses on how blast effects are managed and the survivability of GRE piping in highly intense and high heat flux fire cases. Results from tests simulations will be shared which were carried out to assure certifying body, operator and engineer that GRE piping is the right material of choice for this application under such circumstances.The paper concludes with examples of several floating production and storage offloading facilities installed with GRE piping for the fire water application.
While a coating is typically measured in mils, a lining typically refers to an application of 1/16 inch or thicker. Certain industrial applications are best served through the use of a thick lining with unique physical properties that provide superior resistance against abrasion, impact, chemicals, and corrosion.
