A PERMANENT SOLUTION

摘要

MATT BOUCHER, CLOCK SPRING, USA, DETAILS A SOLUTION FOR PIPELINE PROTECTION AT SUPPORT AND HANGER LOCATIONS, WHICH CAN PREVENT PIPELINE CORROSION AND REDUCE INSPECTION COSTS. Terminals, plants, transmission pipelines and refineries require a wide range of pipe support configurations to protect pipelines from environmental factors and to meet government regulations on atmospheric corrosion. Pipelines are subject to movement, elongation, severe weather conditions and other physical wear and tear that all take their toll on pipeline integrity. Corrosion and defects at pipe support locations complicate maintenance procedures and require costly repairs and inspections, which can interrupt service and production.
