Concrete weight coating provides negative buoyancy for
subsea lines, mechanical protection during handling,
transportation and laying operations, and protects the
line during its lifetime in a marine environment.
Concrete is prepared with different specific gravities
and thicknesses using quality iron ore and other key
raw materials. It can be applied over anti-corrosion
or insulation coatings while the reinforcing wire-mesh
is wrapped and incorporated in the concrete.
EUPEC provides impinged or compression-wrapped reinforced
concrete depending on the pipe diameter and the scale
of the project. The EUPEC process also includes anode
installation to provide an efficient cathodic protection
system.
If required for specific projects, our mobile plants
can be deployed in close proximity to the lay site, providing
local employment and logistical and cost benefits.
