Internal flow efficiency coating

• Used to improve the flow of gas through the pipeline by creating a smooth, defect-free surface
• Removes mill scale and dirt which could adversely affect pigging operations if loosened during service
• Reduces surface roughness, improving the flow properties of the pipeline, and lowering operating costs
• Enhances the visual inspection of the internal pipe surface
• The ID coating process involves four steps: (1) pre-heating the pipe to 5°F above dew point; (2) the pipe is then internally blasted using a steel abrasive to a commercial finish; (3) the coating is then spray-applied into the pipe;
• (4) finally, the pipe is re-heated post-application to insure a tack-free finish

InnerGard™ ID FBE coating

• Comprised of FBE over phenolic primer
• An alternative to traditional polyethylene liners, clad welding,
• or expensive alloy steels for water injection lines
• Used to protect steel pipelines during storage for extended periods prior to installation, thus extending the life of the pipe
• The product provides excellent corrosion protection, increases flow efficiency, enhances flow assurance, and greatly reduces costs vs. using high alloy pipe.

Primary specifications

• 4 in. min to 48 in. max OD
• Pipe lengths:32 ft. min to 42 ft. max
• Typical thickness: 1.5 mils to 3 mils
