Who We Serve
Coatings, linings and repair systems for every segment of the oil and gas industry.
01
Pipelines face corrosion, weather exposure and mechanical stress, and every extra day a ditch stays open costs money. That's why we offer same-day shipping on thousands of in-stock products ordered by 2 PM, a 24-hour hotline and Hotshot delivery. Our AMPP coating inspectors also help you calculate the right amount of product, so you don't pay extra for running out.
02
Upstream equipment deals with extreme pressures, temperature changes and chemical exposure. Protective coatings and liners protect the outside and inside of heater treaters, ASME pressure vessels, separators, line heaters, sand separators and GPUs, while VPCIs protect your electrical equipment.
03
Tanks, refineries and pipelines face chemical exposure and corrosion. Our coatings and linings are designed for corrosion, chemical attack, abrasion and erosion, keeping assets protected and efficient. A 2016 NACE (now AMPP) study put the global cost of corrosion at $2.5 trillion a year.
