On the anti-corrosion of buried pipelines in oil depots
Thread Content
For the oil depot project, which involves buried pipelines, is it appropriate to use the SH standard or the SY standard? Originally, buried pipelines were protected against corrosion using epoxy coal tar pitch coatings; now adhesive tapes are being added, including those made of polyethylene and reinforced fiber polypropylene. How should one choose the appropriate one?
For buried pipelines in oil depots, either the SH or SY specifications can be used. Epoxy coal tar pitch anti-corrosion is an old method; polyethylene anti-corrosion can also be used.
It can be done according to the project’s requirements. For extra safety, it can also be done following strict procedures
