Suitability of the SmartPad System for FPSO and Offshore Platforms

Offshore platforms and FPSOs push pipe supports to their limits—constant wetting, tight crevices, and micro-movement drive Corrosion Under Pipe Supports (CUPS), vibration, and fatigue. This article explains why those conditions form and shows how the RedLineIPS SmartPad System from Cogbill Construction—a contoured FRP saddle with a bonded closed-cell Hydroseal gasket…

Non-Metallic Corrosion Prevention

In corrosive environments, such as chemical plants and refineries, leaks in industrial piping systems are a significant concern. This article explores the challenges of traditional metallic supports and highlights composite solutions, like those from RedLineIPS, which resist corrosion and extend the lifespan of pipelines. Learn how composite supports and non-metallic…
