Coating & Insulation Services

The cost of coatings maintenance is high, especially offshore.  An operator is likely to spend millions of dollars each year, only to fall farther behind on protective coatings work.  Viking’s protective coatings specialists can turn a losing battle with corrosion into a winning program of action.  With attention paid to the details of life-cycle, the coating process, and proper scope prioritization, we can get your coatings working for you.

We’ll work with you to coordinate the following aspects of coatings remediation to create a pro-active protective coatings program:

  • Painter Qualification

  • Inspector Qualifications & Support

  • Steel Basics – Fabrication Issues Affecting Coatings

  • Decontmination (Oil, Grease, Salts)

  • Preparation & Profile (Grit, Dry Ice, Wet Abrasive, UHP, etc.)

  • QC Testing for All Process Stages

  • Coatings Selection

  • Application & Inspection

  • Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) Remediation and Prevention

  • Internal Coatings for Any Service

  • Project and Program Specifications

  • Coatings Inspection Services

  • Alternative Coatings (Metallization, CNT Epoxies)

Always remember – you don’t get what you spec; you get what you inspect.  And strategically located inspections are a critical part of a successful paint program. 

The cost of maintaining coatings is significant in any case. Together we’ll do it right and make it count.
