Coastal Steelwork and Pipeline Polyurea Protection Reference Design
Reference Solution

Final design must be re-engineered for cell chemistry, capacity, enclosure layout, local codes and project testing.

Project assumptions

Outdoor carbon-steel pipework and supports near the coast, with welds, flanges, transitions and intermittent standing water.

Primary risks

Salt deposition, wet-dry cycles, UV, crevices, mechanical damage and inaccessible details accelerate underfilm corrosion.

System architecture

Assess exposure and substrate, prepare and repair steel, select primer, apply spray polyurea on broad areas, detail restricted zones and add a compatible topcoat where required.

Design objectives

Create a continuous barrier, preserve maintainable details and establish inspection and repair points.

Customer data required

Steel grade, existing coating, corrosion state, salts, climate, operating temperature, geometry, access, target life and inspection plan.

Application boundary

Final surface preparation, formulation, thickness and test requirements must be agreed for the actual exposure and maintenance regime.

Prepare a project-specific configuration

Substrate, existing coating, exposure, chemicals, operating temperature, access, target thickness and application schedule.
