2-Layer Polyethylene Extruded Factory-Applied Pipe Corrosion Coating

Publication: Pipelines 2019: Condition Assessment, Construction, and Rehabilitation

ABSTRACT

The history and development of the 2-layer polyethylene (PE) coating system and instances of its proven long-term use as an effective corrosion-protection coating will be covered. The 2-layer polyethylene (PE) coating system has been used in the oil, gas, and water industry for the past 48 years for potable, waste water, and water treatment for both steel and ductile iron (DI) pipe. Also addressed are mainline coatings and those utilized in conjunction using heat shrink sleeves and polyethylene tape coating systems for field joints. Examples will be given of application, installation, and long-term use as a corrosion protection layer for steel and DI pipe.
