Highlights

  • The research paper focuses on oil pipe lines used in desert region of Oman that is exposed to very high ambient temperature affects the coating properties resulted in brittleness in coatings

  • The external surface is coated with two layers fusion bonded epoxy (FBE) system as shown in Figure 3 in which the FBE coating material is coated above the base during manufacturing process

  • The simulation paper focuses on the performance of electroless nickel phosphorous (EN-P) composite alloy coating based on thermal transit analysis in comparison with FBE coating by keeping the thermal input configuration same

Summary

Introduction

The research paper focuses on oil pipe lines used in desert region of Oman that is exposed to very high ambient temperature affects the coating properties resulted in brittleness in coatings. The oil pipe lines in Oman are unprotected to high ambient temperature that disturbs the coating properties. Weight of pipe ASTM A106B [20] = 89Kg/m = 872.79N/m Weight of crude oil [20] (Erad at 20 °C)=5901N/m Weight of FBE insulation- internal and external against 600μm [19] = 7.7 x 10-3N/m Dead Weight = 872.79+5901+7.7x 10-3=6773.79N/m Load weight
