Major NE Coast Oil Refinery Valve Box Headers 2
Date: April 2003
Location: North East USA
Industry: Oil And Gas/Refineries
Challenge
Concrete encased pipe and valve body had developed a severe leak. The leak was unable to be repaired with conventional pipe wrap methods. Major NE Coast Oil Refinery was faced with a costly replacement.
Solution
Novocoat was able to provide a quick and economical solution. The quick set R200 was used to stop active leaking. Next, a wood box was constructed around the entire valve body and damaged pipe. The box was then filled with a mixture of SC1100 and sand to completely encapsulate the valve and the pipe. The pipe and valve body were repaired and leak free.
Major NE Coast Oil Refinery maintenance called the project a complete success saving valuable time and realizing significant cost savings to the operation of the unit.
