How to protect a pipeline network with a length of 90 km? Find out the solution!

Details about the project

The project was developed within the largest oil refinerie in the world. It is located in Abadan, the Persian Gulf. The link between this location and Bandar Mahshahr port city is made of a pipeline network with a length of 90 km.

 

In Abardan, the inlet of the oil has a temperature of 90 ° C. During the transport process, the temperature drops to about 60 ° C.

 

Essential stage – selecting the  protection System

Usually, polypropylene coating on grounded pipeline provides corrosion protection. In this case, polypropylene strips decreased shrunk significantly du to high temperature environment. Thus, a series of metal surfaces were exposed to corrosion.

 

What factors lead to corrosion?

Corrosion is caused by the presence of underground saline solution. Countless leakages occur in the pipeline and the oil flows out constantly.

In the process of repairing, the pipes were excavated in separate sections. The protection system based on polypropylene was removed and the damaged surfaces were repaired. The substrates were grinded. After, Proguard CN 100 ISO corrosion protection system was applied. A product easy to apply by airless spraying method.

The oil transport was not affected by the repair or protection system application
