Oil & Gas

Since 1960, major oil and gas companies around the world have selected 3M™ Scotchkote™ coatings to be their primary corrosion defense for protecting their pipeline investment. Scotchkote fusion bonded epoxy coating is tough. Durable. Field-proven. It's more than just a superior pipe coating - it's a vital element in the gas and oil pipeline network. Typical pipeline applications include internal and external coatings for natural gas, petroleum, water and sewage, as well as pipe systems for refineries, petrochemical plants, power plants and paper mills.

Oil & Gas Applications

Pipeline Coating Systems - New Applications

External Coatings
From the moment a pipe is coated with our Scotchkote™ fusion bonded epoxy coating and installed in the ground or in the sea, maximum corrosion protection is assured. The coating's excellent physical properties minimize damage during transit, installation and operation. It requires very low levels of cathodic protection, even after extended periods of time.

Pipeline Coating Systems - Existing Applications

Rehabilitation
3M™ Scotchkote™ 323 Liquid Epoxy Coating is a two part system designed to protect steel Pipe and other metal surfaces from the harsh affects of corrosion. It can be used as a patch material, a girthweld coating, a stand alone coating for pipe rehabilitation, and in a wide variety of other field applications where corrosion protection of metal is required.

Patch and Repair
Scotchkote liquid epoxy coatings are designed as a patch material, internal lining, field applied girthweld coating or a stand alone coating for pipe rehabilitation. They can be applied by cartridge, brush, roller or plural component spray. Scotchkote liquid epoxy coatings provide excellent adhesion and superior chemical resistance.
