Coatings for Sub-Sea and Pipeline Applications

As specialists in the electroless nickel plating process, us have worked tirelessly on developing the latest technology in marine coatings.

Oil and gas components are inevitably exposed to harsh environments, both under the sea and underground. This exposure to such extreme levels of temperature, moisture and pressure can have a detrimental effect on these components in a short space of time.

That is why SeaTEC 100, us’s very own development in the industry, is the perfect solution for corrosion protection and corrosion prevention in sub-sea environments. SeaTEC effectively coats valves, pumps and pipe fittings to ensure that they remain intact and in operation for an unprecedented amount of time in the industry.

Diffused Nickel Plating

The simple process of diffused nickel plating is the most effective nickel coating to ensure the highest levels of corrosion resistance via the total encapsulation method of plating. Diffused nickel plating is proven to be more corrosion resistant than even the highest grade stainless steel, and much cheaper.

Diffused nickel plating is so resistant to corrosion, particularly in marine environments, that our customers give mild steel plated in this way 30 year sub-sea guarantees.The diffused nickel plating process has been extensively used in the end-fittings for flexible pipe lines and top-side equipment. When independent salt spray testing was carried out on diffused nickel plated components, the experiment was abandoned after 2000 hours because no corrosion could be detected.
