Field Joint Coating is applied on-site to the exposed joints of steel pipes where factory-applied coatings end due to welding. These coatings are critical to maintaining full-length pipeline integrity and preventing corrosion at the most vulnerable points. Systems include heat-shrink sleeves, liquid epoxy, and FBE-compatible wraps, selected based on the mainline coating type (e.g., FBE, 3LPE, 3LPP). Proper surface preparation and compatibility are essential to ensure long-term performance in both buried and offshore installations.
