Fill-Coat #1 Hot Applied
Fill-Coat #1 is a full service, hot-installed casing filler system for pipeline casings. Fill-Coat #1 displaces water from the casing and prevents new water from re-entering, thereby preventing any further corrosion. It is non-hazardous and environmentally friendly. Fill-Coat #1 is an acceptable measure under the requirements of the Department of Transportation.
Description
Fill-Coat #1 is a low melt point, hot installed petrolatum compound that sets up relatively firm at ground temperatures commonly found in normal pipeline operations. It has good "wetting" and adhesion characteristics and prevents possible corrosion of pipe in casings. Fill-Coat #1 meets the Department of Transportation requirements for shorted casings, and is expertly installed by Trenton personnel.
End Use
Fill-Coat #1 is used to displace water that may be present in the annular space between a casing and internal carrier pipe and thereby preventing further corrosion.
Packaging
Pumped directly into the casing from Trenton heated tankers.
