EUPEC’s development of cost-effective solutions is complemented by our expertise in operational Research & Development (R&D). This is essential in addressing difficult offshore conditions and ensuring reliability in end-to-end protection.
EUPEC’ R&D efforts are focused on achieving greater longevity of pipelines, customer savings in production and laying time, waste reduction and the promotion of environmentally-friendly products and services.
 
 
 

Anticipating the needs of an ever changing oil and gas market, EUPEC has established state-of-the-art R&D facilities. We improve, tailor and test advanced coating and application systems to meet new technical challenges in linepipe, custom and field joint coating.

EUPEC’s innovative technical solutions have extended to the design of made-to-measure application systems.
EUPEC has developed automatic and semi-automatic coating processes for pipe-in-pipe, reel-to-reel, linepipe and custom and field joint coatings. These application systems offer enhanced operator safety and reduce over-spray wastage and coating material losses.

Our specific offshore field joint coating processes provide optimised cycle times. They are designed to take account of limited workstation space and the saline aggressive environment of laying barges, whilst performing the highest quality field joint coating.
