Oil pipelines
Joint sealing and corrosion protection for oil distribution and process pipelines
Corrosion protection on oil pipelines is a question of decades of service life: a buried joint must survive in the ground for as long as the pipeline does. Covalence heat‑shrink sleeves and Stopaq systems are tested for oil distribution, splash‑zone, and process‑piping conditions.
Choose this when the joint is on pre‑insulated pipe and the sizes vary: the sleeve is wrapped on site and covers casings from 90 to 1200 mm, including repairs and dimensions outside a standard series.
Choose this when the surface is bare steel or an irregular shape: bends, valves, flanges, tanks, and corrosion under insulation. ST2 cleaning is enough, no blasting is needed, and it works as prevention as much as repair.
Questions and answers
What protects buried gas and oil pipes?
Can Stopaq be applied without taking the pipe out of service?
Does the protection interfere with cathodic protection?
What temperature and load does the protection withstand?
Does the system also suit crossings and casings?
