mixed except when necessary to keep the coating process continuous.
4.0 APPLICATION
4.1 General
The fusion bond epoxy shall be applied in accordance with the coating manufacturer’s
application official procedures. The Applicator must have a copy of these procedures at the
site where the coating is being applied. Any deviation from the coating manufacturer’s
application procedures shall be submitted to the Purchaser for approval.
It shall be the Applicator’s responsibility to stop the coating process at any time when
condition may exist that might adversely affect the coating quality. The Purchaser’s
representative may reject any product not proven by the Applicator to be in compliance with
this Specification.
Proper equipment for the handling, unloading, and temporary storage of bare pipe shall be
used to avoid any damage to bare pipe and pipe ends. The Applicator shall also take special
care to avoid damage to any internal coating during all phase of the external coating process.
The finish coating shall have a cutback at each end to the pipe. Unless otherwise specified,
the length of the cutback shall be 75 mm (3 inches) minimum, measured from the exterior
shoulder of the bevel at the end of the pipe. On pipes requiring PWHT/Pre-heating and/or
post-heating minimum cutback length is 150mm.
4.2 Surface Preparation

All oil base paints, mill lacquer, oil coatings, heavy rust scale, weld splatter, burrs, soil
deposits, dirt, loose rust and mill scale, oil, grease, moisture, dust and foreign matter shall
be removed.
Pipe shall be preheated following surface preparation by passing through gas impinging
heaters to burn off any remaining oil, grease, etc. and dry off all moisture and increase the
temperature of the pipe sufficiently to prevent sweating of the pipe between cleaning and
coating.
All surfaces to be coated shall be blast cleaned in accordance with SSPC SP-10 Near White
Blast Cleaning. The abrasive shall produce an average surface profile of 65 µm (2.5 mils).
All blast-cleaned surfaces shall be inspected for proper cleaning before painting. After
abrasive blast cleaning, all dust and traces of abrasives shall be removed from the pipe
surface by brushing, compressed air or vacuum cleaning. Each pipe shall be inspected for

surface cleanliness. SSPC VIS-1 (ISO 8501-1 to be confirmed by purchaser) shall be used
as a visual standard for confirming the degree of surface cleanliness.
Anchor profile shall be verified in accordance with ASTM D4417, Method C. Anchor profile
may also be verified in accordance with ISO 8503-5, when approved by purchaser.
4.3 Application
The time between blast cleaning and the coating operations shall be kept to a maximum of
four hours to avoid formation of oxides on the cleaned surface. Visible formation of such
oxides shall require re-blasting of pipe surface.
The pipes shall be coated on a continuous coating line without any risk of deterioration during
the various heating, powder spraying, curing and quenching operations.
The pipe shall be uniformly preheated to a temperature specified by the coating
manufacturer. The preheat temperature shall not exceed 246°C (475°F). Optical pyrometers
shall be used to measure preheat temperature. A procedure for calibrating pyrometers on a
minimum twice-daily basis shall be followed. As an alternate, preheat temperature may be
checked with temperature sticks providing care is exercised not to contaminate any surface
to be coated with deposits left by the melt stick. Care shall be taken during the preheating
operation to prevent any contamination of the cleaned pipe surface.
Following preheating, the fusion bond coating shall be applied to the pipe by electrostatic
spray or fluidized bed to provide uniform cured film thickness of 300 µm to 350 µm (12 to 14
mils).
The coating may be water cooled provided that the minimum curing time schedule has been
met. Cooling shall be accomplished in graduated stages, using water jets operating at
carefully controlled flow and temperatures, according to the manufacturer’s
recommendation.
5.0 INSPECTION
Each length of coated pipe shall be checked with an approved holiday detector and shall be
subject for approval by Purchaser’s Inspection. Holiday detection voltage shall be set at an
appropriate voltage. The coating shall be 100 percent holiday-free. The detector shall travel
at a rate not to exceed 1 ft. per second, nor shall it be allowed to remain stationary while the
power is on. Holiday detection test shall be in accordance with NACE SP0490-2007, Holiday
Detection of Fusion Bonded Epoxy External Pipelines Coatings 250 to 760 µm (10 to 30 mils)
and specific requirements set forth in APPENDIX 2.
Any pinholes or missed spots located by the detector shall be repaired or replace and
retested prior to shipment.
Each length of coated pipe shall be checked to measure the coating dry film thickness (DFT)
by using Mikrotest film thickness gauge or Purchaser’s approved equal. The dry film
thickness shall be checked in accordance with the procedure defined by SSPC PA-2.
For critical applications, such as hydrocarbon service and/or severe corrosive environments,
a procedure for the control of Degree of Cure shall be submitted for Purchaser approval.
6.0 COATING REPAIR

All defects disclosed by the holiday detector and defect resulting from mechanical damage
to the coated surface shall be repaired.

Scars, dents, damaged areas and holidays are to be cleaned by removing all rust, scale,
loose coating, dirt or other foreign material. The area to be patched shall be suitable
roughened. Dust generated by the sanding shall be removed prior to patching.
FBE manufacturer’s recommended patching compound shall be used for patching holidays
and damaged coating. The patching compound shall be mixed and applied strictly in
accordance with FBE coating manufacturer’s specification. Patching shall overlap the
surrounding undamaged coating by a minimum 12 mm (0.5 inch) and shall be applied to
attain the minimum thickness recommended by the coating manufacturer.
All coating defects should be repaired using materials that are compatible with and adhere
well to the FBE coating, and are approved by the purchaser.
Repair materials typically consist of:
- Heat melting sticks; and
- Two-part epoxy or equivalent.
All repairs shall be holiday free.
The surface to be repaired should be suitably prepared to ensure adhesion of the repair
material. Minimum thickness of the repaired coating shall be in accordance with the repair
coating manufacturer’s recommendations.
Areas 6.4 mm (0.25 in) in diameter and less may be repaired with the supplier’s
recommended hot-melt stick, two-part epoxy, or equivalent.
Areas greater than 6.4 mm (0.25 in) in diameter and less than 0.013 m2 (20 in2) shall be
repaired with the purchaser’s or powder supplier’s recommended two-part epoxy or
equivalent.
The total maximum repaired areas for each pipe shall not exceed 0.052 m2 (80 in2).
For stripping, pipe shall be heated to a temperature not exceeding 260 °C (500 °F) to soften
the coating to permit removal by scraping, followed by abrasive blasting. All coating shall be
removed before recoating. The identity of each stripped and recoated pipe shall be recorded.
The repair procedure shall be proposed jointly by Applicator and submitted to Contractor and
Company for Approval.
7.0 FIELD JOINT COATINGS

shrink sleeves, or petroleum tape shall not be used.
Liquid epoxy shall be as listed below or approved equal:
• 3M Scotchkote Liquid Epoxy Coating 323
• Denso Protal 7200
• Sherwin Williams Dura-Plate UHS
7.1 Surface Preparation

Prior to blast cleaning at the field joints, contamination shall be removed from the steel
surfaces. Oil and grease shall be removed by solvent cleaning in accordance with SSPC SP-
1.
Surfaces shall be tested for soluble salt contamination using the Bresle method in
accordance with ISO 8502 Part 6. Surface preparation may proceed if the level of soluble
salt contamination is less than 5μg/cm2.

If contamination exceeds 5μg/cm2, the girth weld area shall be pressure washed with fresh
water and retested. Washing shall be repeated as needed. Surface preparation shall not
proceed until soluble salt contamination has been reduced to less than 5μg/cm2.
All burned damaged or loose FBE adjacent to the bare the girth weld area shall be removed
leaving and edge of sound, intact and tightly adhered FBE.
The leading edge of the intact shop applied FBE shall be feathered at least 25 mm (1 inch)
back from the bare steel producing a transition zone where the girth weld coating will overlap
onto the existing FBE. Feathering shall be performed by sanding to completely remove the
surface and roughen the coating and to producing a smooth taper from the exiting FBE
coating down to the bare steel.
The temperature of the substrate shall be per the manufacturer’s data sheet or a minimum
of 3°C (5°F) above the dew point during surface preparation, whichever is more stringent.
Surfaces to be coated shall be blast cleaned in accordance with SSPC SP-10 with a
minimum profile of 62 microns (2.5 mils) and a maximum profile of 127 microns (5.0 mils)
unless otherwise required by the coating material manufacturer’s latest published
instructions.
FBE coated surfaces beyond the transition (overlap) area shall be protected from abrasive
blast cleaning.
Burrs, slivers, scabs, sharp edges, and weld spatter visible after blasting shall be referred to
the Purchaser for removal. Surface preparation shall be restored to these repair areas in
accordance with original specification requirements.
If rusting occurs or if the cleaned surfaces become wet or otherwise contaminated prior to
coating, the surface shall be re-cleaned to the degree specified above.
After blast cleaning and immediately before coating, dust shall be removed with clean soft
bristle brushes, vacuuming, or other methods accepted by Buyer.
7.2 Application of Liquid Epoxy Coating

Only qualified applicator shall be allowed to apply liquid epoxy coating. Applicator shall
prepare application procedure and submit for approval.

be in accordance with the manufacturer’s latest published instructions and the requirements
specified herein. When multiple component units are mixed, each component shall be mixed
separately prior to the mixing of the combined materials. Only complete, pre-measured units
shall be mixed. After mixing, the coating material shall be applied within the material’s pot-
life.
Coating materials shall be thoroughly mixed until they are smooth and free from lumps, and
if required by the application strained through a suitably sized screen.
The temperature of the substrate shall be warmer than 10°C (50°F) and colder than 100°C
(212°F), and minimum of 3°C (5°F) above the dew point. Relative humidity shall not exceed
85% during lining application and curing.
Coating materials shall not be applied when there is moisture, dust, dirt or other
contaminants on the surface. The coating shall be applied by spray, brush or roller using
equipment recommended by the coating material manufacturer. When brush or roller
applied, several coats may be required to achieve the proper DFT.
The final cure of the completed coating shall be as recommended by the coating
manufacturer prior to backfilling the excavation.

Runs, sags, voids, drips, overspray, loss of adhesion, blistering, peeling, inadequate cure,
or rusting of the substrate are not permitted. Defects shall be corrected as detected during
or after application of the coating.
8.0 STORAGE AND HANDLING

Coated pipe shall be stored per Section 6 AWWA Standard C213 and Section 4.2 AWWA
Standard C203. Coated pipe shall be laid on pads designed to prevent damage to coating
by penetration. Stacked pipe shall be “nested” so that adjacent pipe lengths bear equally
against each other throughout their coated lengths. High stacks, which result in excessive
pressure and damage the coating to the coating or pipe, shall be avoided. When storing, the
bottom row of pipe shall be supported with 6-inch wide blocks spaced at internals of no more
than 5 feet. The ground shall be free of sharp objects that could damage coating.
The coated pipe shall be handled per Section 4.1 of AWWA Standard C203. The coated pipe
shall be handled (loading or unloading) at all times so as not to damage the coating before,
during or after transit.
Pipe shall not be allowed to ram into other pipe or to drop on rocky ground. Bare cables,
chains, hooks, metal bars or narrow skids shall not be used in handling coated pipe. Pipe
shall be lifted from carrier with wide padded slings and stockpiled on wide padded skids.
Coating that is damaged during handling, storage, or shipping shall be repaired. The
applicator is responsible for repairing damage that occurs during the handling, storage, and
shipping activities under its control. Repair to damage that occurs after the applicator no
longer controls the pipe activity is the responsibility of the Purchaser. While under the control
of the applicator, coating damage that exceeds the limits of Section 6 shall be stripped and
recoated, unless accepted by the Purchaser. Coating damage that occurs after the pipe
leaves control of the applicator and exceeds the limits of Chapter 6 shall be the responsibility
of the Purchaser.
Repair methods shall be such that no reduction to the thickness of metallic component is
possible.
9.0 MARKING
The following identification markings shall be placed on the coating:
1) Applicator’s name or mark (work order number);

In-line inspection and measurement
The inspection and measurements required shall be made and recorded by the applicator under
the supervision of a person qualified by experience and training in coating inspection methods.
1. Air for blasting, cleaning, drying, or powder application shall be checked and information
recorded at least every four hours to ensure no water, oil, or other contaminants are
present.
2. All temperature, dew point, humidity, and other such measurements as required by the
coating manufacturer or applicator shall be taken and recorded at the start of each shift
and at least once every two hours.
3. Surface finish shall be monitored hourly before heating: it shall be minimum ISO 8501-1 Sa
2.5 and surface roughness shall not exceed 100µm.

4. Surface cleanliness per ISO 8502-3 (Pressure sensitive Tape). The maximum level shall
be class 2.
5. Pipe travel speed shall be recorded for blasting and coating setting phase and shall be
checked during production.
6. At least once every four hours of production, the surface profile shall be measured using a
replicating film or approved equivalent. The surface profile shall note exceed the limits of
the Approved Coating Procedure
7. Each cleaned pipe shall be visually inspected for surface defects and surface imperfections
that may cause holidays in the coating. Surface imperfections shall be removed by grinding
or other suitable means. Pipe containing surface defects shall be rejected or repaired at the
purchaser’s option. Repaired pipe that falls below the required minimum in wall thickness
shall be rejected.
8. The surface temperature of the pipe immediately before the application of the FBE powder
shall be monitored and controlled within the limits agreed to by the applicator, the
purchaser, and the coating supplier. (Optical pyrometers, graduated heat-indicating sticks,
or other purchaser-approved methods shall be used to monitor and control the
temperature.)
9. Once the coating temperature is established, the temperature of every fifth pipe shall be
taken and recorded
10. The use of recycled powder, curing temperature, and cure shall be controlled and
monitored.
11. The coating thickness shall be measured at five locations along the length of each coated
pipe using a coating thickness gauge calibrated at least once every four hours during
production. Each reading shall be at least 2 m (6 ft) from any other reading. All five of the
thickness measurements shall be recorded.
12. If any individual measured thickness value is less than the specified minimum value of 300
μm (12 mil), two coating thickness measurements shall be measured within 150 mm (6.0
in) of the original measurement. The average of these measurements shall exceed the
specified average value of 350 μm (14 mil) or greater minimum as specified by the
purchaser, and no individual value shall be more than 50 μm (2.0 mil) below the specified
minimum value. All these thickness measurements shall be recorded.
13. Pipe failing to meet the requirements of item 10, at the purchaser’s option, be repaired or
stripped and recoated.
14. If the purchaser’s maximum thickness is exceeded, the pipe shall be placed on hold for
further inspection, special marking, or stripping and recoating, as agreed to by the
purchaser’s representative and the applicator.
Final Testing
The entire pipe shall be inspected with a holiday detector having a search electrode made of
conducting electrode or phosphor bronze wire in accordance with NACE SP0490. The direct
current potential shall be set to exceed 5 V for each μm (125 V/mil). The detector shall be
calibrated in accordance with the manufacturer’s procedures at least once every shift, not
exceeding 12 hours).
The coated surface shall be 100% visually inspected to ensure it is free of blisters, bubbles, sags,
voids, and other irregularities.
Pipe containing holidays shall be repaired or recoated. No holidays are allowed on accepted pipe.

The maximum number of repairs is on average one for every 2 m2 (22 ft2) of coated pipe surface,
for pipes of all diameters.
The allowable number and type of coating surface defects shall be agreed with the purchaser.
