CASE STUDY

24” OD Natural Gas PipelinePulled Back twice and coating damage was

unacceptable. Using a fiber reinforced ARO, the thirdpullback passed inspection.

12” OD PipelineVisco Elastic Coating

CASE STUDY

36” OD Ductile IronWater pipe pulled back 1200’.

Fiber reinforced ARO was used toPrevent peel back on these heat shrink sleeves

CASE STUDY

26” OD Crude PipelineSaudi Aramco evaluated several coatings & ARO’s

A Two Part Liquid, fiber reinforced CorrosionCoating & ARO was specified

CASE STUDY

Fun Fact:Camels are a nuisance on pipeline projects in the

middle east!
