Technical Event: Field-Applied External Coatings for Steel Pipeline Systems

CSA Z245.30 is referenced in CSA Z662 for the coating of below-ground natural gas steel pipelines and was developed to improve the quality and consistency of field-applied pipeline coatings throughout the service life of the asset.

This session will provide a practical overview of what the standard covers, including coating qualification, application, inspection, testing, handling, and storage requirements for steel pipeline systems. The presentation will also outline the roles and responsibilities defined within the standard, including those of coating applicators, coating companies, operating companies, and coating manufacturers, as well as the importance of competence and Manufacturer’s Qualified Application Procedures (MQAPs).
