| PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION |
| SureFlo™ FEC is a thin film epoxy coating applied in
natural gas pipelines to smooth the internal pipe
surface for improved flow. |
| FEATURES
AND BENEFITS |
Ultra Smooth Finish
- Application of SureFlo™ FEC replaces the internal
rough surface of a steel pipe with a smooth
surface finish.
- Reduction in friction and turbulence increases flow
efficiency, which may allow for use of a smaller
diameter pipe or lower compression requirements
resulting in reduced capital and operating costs.
Improved Internal Surface Cleanliness
- After application of SureFlo™ FEC, the clean
internal surface of the pipe provides corrosion
protection prior to installation and allows for easier
visual inspection.
- The cleaner surface reduces the cost and effort of
drying the pipe after hydrostatic testing.
Global Availability
- Available from a network of coating plants
strategically located across the world to minimize
pipe transportation costs.
- Can be manufactured in a single plant or in multiple
coating plants to improve project logistics.
- High capacity within the Bredero Shaw plant
network allows the client to benefit from single
source advantages, providing more cost effective
management of pipe coating needs.
