Corrosion Protection Coating

Protective Coating for Offshore, Marine & Corrosive Environments

FRHE is able to support heat exchanger applications requiring protective coating systems such as Heresite coating, particularly for operating environments where corrosion resistance and long-term surface protection are important.

Heresite coating is commonly considered for heat exchangers exposed to harsh atmospheric or corrosive environments, including offshore platforms, marine installations, coastal plants, chemical plants, petrochemical facilities, refineries, wastewater treatment areas and other aggressive industrial environments.

This coating option may be suitable for applications where the heat exchanger is exposed to:

  • Offshore and marine atmosphere
  • Salt-laden air
  • Coastal or high-humidity environments
  • Corrosive industrial surroundings
  • Chemical vapour exposure
  • Process areas with higher corrosion risk
  • Equipment requiring additional external protection

For heat exchanger applications, Heresite coating can be considered for components such as coils, finned surfaces, casings, frames, air cooler components and other exposed areas, depending on the project requirement, operating condition and coating suitability.

Why This Matters

In offshore, marine and corrosive environments, heat exchangers are often exposed to aggressive external conditions that can accelerate corrosion, reduce service life and increase maintenance frequency. A suitable protective coating system helps provide additional corrosion protection, improves durability and supports longer-term equipment reliability.

FRHE can assist clients in reviewing whether Heresite coating or an alternative protective coating system is suitable based on the operating environment, material of construction, temperature, process condition and project specifications.
