The repair of corroded or damaged pipelines using composite repair systems is growing, especially in the oil and gas industries. Composites have proved themselves as a strong and durable material, capable of providing the qualities required when performing critical repairs. Numerous field trials, in-house testing, and third party testing has demonstrated that our Composite Reinforcement System possesses those performance qualities, and as such, has been successfully used on many pipelines for repairing external corrosion and mechanical damage.
StrongBack System
The StrongBack System consists of StrongBack tape impregnated with a proprietary urethane resin in conjunction with GS154 and/or GS561 proprietary load transfer/coating agents. This combination of StrongBack products will effectively transfer the load from the corrosion pit to the composite StrongBack sleeve, eliminating moisture and oxygen migration under the sleeve when properly applied. Repair and coating of the line is achieved in one procedure. The StrongBack System can be applied under water by a diver without the need for a habitat in most instances. |

Aquapreg® System
Aquapreg® System is a composite reinforcement sleeve manufactured by the INTEG Pipeline Services are water activated, resin impregnated, glassfiber remediation materials.These products are based on a unique blend of liquid epoxy polymer and aliphatic polyamine curing agents which are able to displace water from wet surfaces in order to make a permanent bond. The formulation is solvent-free to ensure safety and maximum technical performance. These tapes are cost effective, advanced alternatives to metal sleeves and offer additional advantages not generally found with sleeves - such as, application in any weather condition or element and to any part of the pipe, even joints and bends. Water and humidity does not have to delay the job.
