PROBLEM
The customer had problems with corrosion on critical oil and gas equipment (flanges, valves, etc.) and asked Pentra if Cortec® had a solution.
APPLICATION
Pentra visited the site in August 2018 to review the prob-lem and conduct a field trial. During the visit, Pentra found that some of the critical equipment had already been used and would need to be restored before preser-vation. Fortunately, Cortec® also had a solution for this, and Pentra was able to offer to perform the work in a two-stage process.
The first step was surface preparation. This included the use of MCI® Super Remover to clean off any mud or hardened soil present on used equipment. VpCI®-423 was applied as needed to remove rust, and VpCI®-416
was used to rinse the equipment.
The second step was protection before storage. Pen-tra used a variety of Cortec® integrated corrosion so-lutions depending on the needs of each component.
CorShield® VpCI®-369, VpCI®-389, and VpCI®-391 re-movable coatings were applied as needed to different metal surfaces. VpCI®-337 was used to fog internal
void spaces. Equipment was wrapped in either VpCI®-126 Shrink Film or MilCorr® VpCI® Shrink Film, de-pending on the expected length of storage or the sever-
ity of the storage conditions.
