1.0 SCOPE AND GENERAL INTRODUCTION
This specification is applicable to general requirements of painting / coating within BPCL,

Mumbai Refinery. These requirements must be fulfilled and complied for painting and coating
of all equipment, pipelines, and storage tanks when they are off stream /shutdown and new
fabrication. However on specific situational based recommendation from area inspection
engineer, painting may be carried out with certain cautious deviations from these
requirements such as painting without stipulated surface preparation. Painting includes
surface preparation, clean up and application of painting. As a part of the periodical review of
the specification, it has been reviewed the existing practices vis-a vis current industrial
practices and available products with reputed painting manufacturers for enhancing
effectiveness and durability of the painting systems.
Accordingly, revised painting specification has been prepared for implementation at BPCL
Mumbai Refinery. Scope of work covered in this specification shall include, but not limited to
the following:
Surface preparation
Selection and application of painting on:
a) Equipment including high temperature surfaces.
b) Piping
c) Steel Structures, buildings.
d) Storage Tanks
e) High temperature surfaces (Furnace casings, Stacks etc.).
1.1 Codes and standards
Following relevant international standards were considered.

SURFACE PREPARATION STANDARDS
a. Swedish Standards
b. Steel Structures Painting Council (SSPC)
c. NACE Standards
d. ISO 4624, ISO 2802
The contractor shall arrange, at his own cost, to keep a set of latest edition of all the reference
standards and codes at work site.
The paint manufacturers instructions shall be followed as far as practicable at all times.
Particular attention shall be paid to the following:
a) Instructions for storage (Shelf life)

b) Surface preparation prior to painting
c) Mixing and thinning
d) Application of paints and recommended limit on time intervals between coats

2. 0 SURFACE PREPARATION METHODS
Most metallic articles that are usually given protective coatings are heavily contaminated and
require, at least, some cleaning treatment before the coating is applied. The importance of
surface preparation cannot be over emphasized as many investigations have shown
convincingly that the performance and durability of any protective coatings are, to a large
extent governed by the thoroughness of surface preparation. Often they concluded that
careful cleaning and preparation of the surface were more important than the quality of the
protective coating.
Surface contamination in the form of rust, scale, oil grease and dirt must be removed before
painting. Invisible contamination may also be present and represents, on the whole, a greater
hazard. Examples of the latter are soldering fluxes, perspiration in the form of hand marks,
chlorides from marine atmosphere and sulfite from industrial atmosphere.
The following table-1 gives surface preparation specification in the descending order.
TABLE 1: Surface Preparation in Descending Order of Effectiveness
Sl. No. Methods of cleaning Specifications NACE/SSPC/SIS-05-

5900
1. White metal blast NACE # 1, SSPC SP 5-63,SA-3
2. Near white metal blast NACE # 2, SSPC SP 10-63,SA-2.5
4. Acid Pickling SSPC SP 8-63,
5. Brush Blast NACE # 4, SSPC SP 7-63,SA-1
6. Flame Clean and Power Sanding SSPC SP 4-63
7. Power Tool Cleaning SSPC SP 3-63
8. Chip and Hand Wire Brush SSPC SP 2-63
9. Solvent Wipe SSPC SP 1-63
Note: (Sand blasting is not allowed in Refinery and MOT; hence Cu slag shall be used in all
such cases except crude oil tanks internals)
CU slag grading:
a. 0.2 to 2.4 mm - coarse sieve for paint & rust removal.

b. 0.4 to 1.5 mm for general new surfaces.
Cu slag is specified as a standard blasting material for BPCL-MR, as this will not create spark on
metal surface while blasting. Cu slag is not reusable, resulting in less / negligible surface
contamination.
2.1 Inspection of blasted steel surface
For the purpose of inspecting the blasted steel surface with cu slag abrasive, the respective
Visual standards can be utilized.
Page 41 of 146
White metal blast (SSPC 5-63, NACE No.1, and SA-3)
This is defined as removing all rust, scale, paint etc. to a clean white metal which has a
uniform Grey white appearance. Streaks and stains of rust or other contaminants are not
allowed.
Near white metal (SSPC 10-63, NACE No.2, SA 2.5)
This provides a surface of about 95% as clean as white metal. Light shades and streaks are not
allowed.
Commercial blast (SSPC 6-63, NACE No.3, SA 2)
This type of blast is more difficult to describe. It essentially amounts to about 2/3 of a white
metal blast, which allows for very slight residues of rust and paint in the form of staining.
Brush of blast (SSPC 7-63, NACE No.4 SA-1)
This preparation calls for removal of loose rust, paint, scales, etc. Tightly adherent paint, rust
and scale is permitted to remain.
2.2 Pictorial Standards of different surface preparation to be adopted
During surface preparation operations, the surface condition obtained has to be compared
with pictorial standards available for getting the specified condition.
3. 0 PAINT APPLICATION
The purpose of painting/coating application is to develop a continuous highly adherent film

with an even thickness over the substrate. To achieve this, various factors have to be
considered such as type of coatings and weather conditions, application methods etc
APPLICATION RESTRICTIONS
For all cases, paint manufacturer guidelines shall be followed. Following restrictions are given
as recommended practices:
1. Coating application shall not be permitted during fog, mist or rain.
2. Coating application shall not be permitted when the relative humidity is 85 percent or
above.
3. Coating application shall not be permitted when the steel surface temperature and/or
ambient temperature is below 10C (50F) .
Page 42 of 146
4. Coating application shall not be permitted when the steel surface temperature and/or
ambient temperature is above 50C (120F).
5. Coating application shall not be permitted when the steel surface temperature is less than
3C (5F) above the dew point.
6. Humidity and dew point readings shall be taken by contractor with a sling Psychrometric
meter and calculated using psychrometric tables. Readings shall be taken prior to coating
operations commencing and at least every four hours while coating application is ongoing.
7. Coatings shall not be applied before the surface has been inspected and the preparatory
work approved.
8. All sharp projections shall be ground to min. 2 mm radius and a thick stripe coat shall be
applied at sharp edges.
9. Fresh water blasting or fresh water mopping shall be carried out on Salt water spray areas
before application of primer to remove the salts deposited on metal surface. Mopping can
be repeated before application of other coats to remove salts deposited on previous
coats, if such deposits are suspected. The permissible Chloride content for water used
shall be 50 ppm maximum.

10.0 STANDARD FOR COLOUR CODING OF PIPELINES/EQUIPMENTS
Non-uniformity of colour coding of pipelines in industrial installations causes faulty

manipulation of valves, cutting of lines, welding on line carrying hazardous or inflammable
material etc. resulting in to the destruction of property and injury to personnel. Uniformity of
colour promotes greater safety, lessens the chances of error and warns against the hazards
involved in the handling of material inside the pipelines.
Identification of the particular contents of the pipelines is achieved by imposing suitable

colour bands on the ground colour. Letter writing as a mode of identification, is also
recommended for chemical industry, as this will reduce the possibility of mistakes in
identification. Lettering may include the contents by name, chemical formula, or
unmistakable and standard abbreviations.
10.1 This standard prescribes the colour scheme for the identification of the contents of pipelines
carrying fluids in the BPCL refinery.
This standard is not applicable to pipelines buried underground or used for electrical services.
PAINTS
Appropriate quality of paints conforming to relevant BPCL standards, wherever they exist,
shall be used for colour marking.
It is recommended that the paints used should produce a glossy finish.
COLOURS
In order to identify the contents of the pipelines, a large number of colour shades are
required. Recommendations regarding shades of colour that may be used are given in Table
4. Colours used should be near to the specified colour shade as possible.

IDENTIFICATION
The system of colour coding consists of ground colour and colour bands superimposed on it.
Ground colour
The ground colour identifies the basic nature of the fluid carried in the pipeline.
Colour Bands
Colour bands are superimposed on the ground colour to distinguish
a. one kind or condition of a fluid from another kind or condition of the same fluid, or
b. one fluid from another but belonging to the same group.
APPLICATION
Ground colour
Colour as given in Table III (wherever only one colour is mentioned) shall be applied
throughout the entire line including valves, junctions, joints, bends, service appliances,
bulkheads, etc.
Colour Bands
They shall be superimposed on the ground colour.
The recommended size of the colour bands is given in table - 5.
TABLE 5:
Outside Diameter of Width of the band Distance between set of

pipe or Covering Bands
mm. m.
Inch
1 to 3 inches 50 5
Above 3 to 12 inches 50 10
Above 12 to 24 inches 100 15
Above 24 inches 200 20
35
Page 72 of 146
The minimum gap shall be of 50mm between adjacent band.
For hot lines, which are insulated, painting of bands should be done in plain Aluminium sheet,
which can be easily screwed to the pipeline.
Valves shall be painted with the same colour as the main pipelines except the valves shall be
painted red for firefighting; yellow with black diagonal strips for warning of danger and
Brilliant green colour, to denote pipes carrying fresh water, either potable or non-potable.
The colour coding as prescribed in this standard for pipelines in BPCL refinery for general
services, process pipelines and pipelines conveying industrial gases (except pipelines
conveying medical gases) are given in Table III.
ADDITIONAL IDENTIFICATION
When further identification is required, this may be done as per the requirement of Operation
Department.
10.2 Lettering
The recommended size of lettering for pipes of different diameters is given in table 6.

Above 30 to 50 20
Above 50 to 80 30
Above 80 to 150 40
Above 150 to 250 63
Over 250 90
Direction of Flow
Where it is required to indicate the direction of flow, arrows or letters may be painted near
valves, junctions, walls etc. and at suitable intervals along the pipe. These shall be black or
white in colour and in contrast to the colour on which they are superimposed. If a label or
badge with codified indication is attached to the pipe, the direction of flow may be indicated
by the pointed end of the label or badge.
VISIBILITY MARKINGS
Attention would be given to the visibility of colour markings and the letters. Where the
pipelines are located above the normal line of vision of the operator, the lettering should be
placed below the horizontal line of the pipe.

13. CRUDE OIL TANKS PAINTINGS
13.1 Scope
This standard exclusively covers the painting of crude oil storage tanks in BPCL Refineries.
This standard has been derived from existing AE-S-5430, Rev. 0 and painting practices being
followed at BPCL-KR. Intent of this standard is to cover a common painting practice across
all BPCL group of Refineries.
13.2 Tank operating condtions
Operating temperature : Not above 65 degree celsius.

Operating pressure : Ambient.
13.3 Surface preparation
The purpose of surface preparation is to create a continuous highly adherent, homogeneous

and defect free paint film with an even thickness over the tank surfaces. For new painting,
all the internal & external surfaces shall be blasted to achieve the surface profile as given
in Annexure A. Light shades and streaks are not allowed. When steel shot is used, it
shall be used together with steel grit. The purpose of surface preparation is to create a
continuous highly adherent, homogeneous and defect free paint film with an even thickness
over the tank surface. Compressed air used shall be free of moisture and oil. Adequate
separators and traps shall be provided, installed in the coolest part of the system. The
presence of oil and water shall be determined at least two (2) times per eight hours and
following every compressor start-up. The air discharge temperature shall not exceed 100 C.
The blasting nozzles should be venturi style with tungsten carbide or boron carbide as the
materials for liners. Blasting nozzles shall be replaced when the specified minimum blast
pressure, surface cleanliness and surface roughness can no longer be achieved. Blasting
equipment and the equipment being blasted shall be properly earthed to prevent the
occurrence of electrostatic discharges. If possible vacuum collector shall be installed for
collecting the abrasives for recycling. Recycled shot shall be used only after ensuring that it
is clean enough to provide the minimum surface preparation mentioned above.
When working in confined spaces, adequate ventilation and intrinsically safe lighting shall
be used. As a minimum, ventilation shall ensure sufficient air changes such that the
threshold limit value (TLV) of the various coating materials in use shall not be exceeded.
Access for coating work should be constructed so as to provide easy and sufficient access
for surface preparation, painting and inspection of all surfaces
13.4 Recommended environment conditions for Paint Application
For all cases, paint manufacturer guidelines shall be followed. Following restrictions are
given as recommended practices:
55
Page 92 of 146
13.4.1 Coating application shall not be permitted in the following conditions.
4.1.1 During fog, mist or rain.
4.1.2 When the relative humidity is 85 percent or above.
4.1.3 When the steel surface temperature and/or ambient temperature is below
10C (50F) .
4.1.4 When the steel surface temperature and/or ambient temperature is above
50C (120F).
4.1.5 When the steel surface temperature is less than 3C (5F) above the dew
point.
13.4.2 For all internal painting work, the dehumidification of the surrounding air dew point
shall be maintained 5 degree celsius below the prevailing surface temperature. The
relative humidity shall be maintained not more than 45% from preparation to curing
of coatings.
13.4.3 The measurement of the following shall ensured prior to start of work and shall be
done every three hours for the entire duration of the painting work and shall extend
till the paint is dried and cured.
4.3.1 Relative Humidity (RH).

4.3.2 Ambient air temperature.
4.3.3 Surface temperature of the object being painted.
4.3.4 Air temperature at surrounding of the painting.
4.3.5 Air flow
13.4.4 There shall be no welding activity or radiography testing on the shell during and after
installation of coating system.
13.4.5 Humidity and dew point readings shall be taken with a sling Psychrometric meter
and calculated using psychrometric tables.
13.4.6 Coatings shall not be applied before the surface has been inspected and the
preparatory work approved.
13.4.7 All edges shall be ground to a minimum radius of 3.2 mm. Flame cut areas and weld
spatter shall have been ground flush. All rough welds shall be ground to remove
sharp edges and other such irregularities. The amount of grinding performed shall be
judicious and performed only to the extent necessary to prepare the weld surface
and surrounding metal surfaces in accordance with the specification. Over grinding,
which would result in decreasing the wall thickness or the integrity of the weld
beyond the limitations imposed by good welding practices, applicable welding codes,
or tank or vessel ratings, shall be avoided. All weld spatter and arc strikes must be
removed. (Refer NACE SP 0178).
56
Page 93 of 146
13.4.8 Salt water spray areas shall require fresh water blasting or fresh water (Max.
Chloride content 50 ppm) mopping to remove the salts deposited on metal surface
before application of primer. Mopping can be repeated before application of other
coats to remove salts deposited on previous coats, if such deposits are suspected.
13.4.9 Blast cleaned steel surfaces shall not be touched by bare hands
13.4.10 If the surface being cleaned is adjacent to a coated surface, the blast cleaning shall
cut in to the coated surface by at least 50 mm. The edges of the existing coating
system shall be feathered. The remainder of the existing coated surface shall be
properly protected with shields or screens to prevent any over blast damage.
13.4.11 To prevent dust and abrasive contamination, blast cleaning shall not be carried out
adjacent to painting operations or wet (painted) surfaces
13.5 Mixing and Painting

13.5.1 Mixing & Thinning
All paint spraying equipment, including mixers, shall be thoroughly cleaned before mixing of
new materials. All coating materials shall be mixed and thoroughly stirred in accordance
with the instructions of the paint Manufacturer. Sufficient agitation to maintain good mixing
shall be applied until the product is used. If air is entrapped in the product during
mixing/stirring, sufficient time should be allowed for the air bubbles to escape before
application.
13.5.2 Application of paint/primer:

5.2.1 Blast cleaned surface shall be coated with one complete application of primer as
soon as practicable but in no case later than 4 hrs. the same day or as per the time
frame stipulated in the technical data sheet of the paint, whichever is earlier.
5.2.2 To the maximum extent practicable, each coat of material shall be applied as a
continuous film uniform thickness free of porous. Any spots or areas missed in
application shall be recoated and permitted to dry before the next coat is applied.
Applied paint should have the desired wet film thickness.
5.2.3 No coat shall be applied until the preceding coat has dried and cured as
recommended by Paint Manufacturer. Next coat shall be applied within the time
stipulated by the paint manufacturer. Before over coating, over-runs, drips and
smears shall be removed and any coating damage or imperfection shall be repaired.
The material shall be considered dry for re-coating when another coat can be
applied without the development of any film irregularities such as lifting or loss of
adhesion of undercoats. Drying time of the applied coat should not exceed
maximum specified for it as a first coat; if it exceeds the paint material has possibly
deteriorated or mixing is faulty.
5.2.4 No paint shall be force dried under conditions, which will cause cracking, wrinkling,
blistering formation of pores, or detrimentally affect the conditions of the paint. No
57
Page 94 of 146
drier shall be added to paint on the job unless specifically called for in the
manufacturer's specification for the paint. Paint shall be protected from rain,
condensation and contamination until dry.
5.2.5 All paints and painting materials shall be stored only in rooms to be arranged by
contractor and approved by Engineer-in-charge for the purpose. All necessary
precautions shall be taken to prevent fire.

caused by over blasting, dripping paint, paint splashes and overspray.
5.2.9 To minimise the risk of damage, no lifting, transportation, erection or fabrication

operations shall be done before the paint has been fully dried and/or cured.
5.2.10 Abrasive blast cleaning and coating operations should be carried out during daylight
hours. However, grit blasting and coating may be carried out at night providing the
lighting and environmental conditions are acceptable. Minimum lighting
requirements for abrasive blasting, painting and inspection are 500 lux.
5.2.11 For internal tank coatings and the external coatings of buried or immersed
equipment and structures, pinhole testing for electrically non-conductive coatings
shall be carried out in accordance with NACE SP0188. The high voltage technique
shall be used; nominally set at 5 V/based on DFT, or as agreed with the paint
Manufacturer but not exceeding 25 kV in total. For coating thickness < 500 DFT,
the low voltage wet sponge technique shall be used.
13.5.3 Spray application

Spraying is the required method of application. The painting Contractor shall supply the
required range of spray tips, sizes and fan angles for the work being undertaken. The spray
pressure shall be uniform and the spray pattern smooth.
13.5.4 Brush application

climate-controlled areas. Rollers shall be of good quality to ensure uniformity of the applied
coating.
13.5.6 Stripe coat

Before spray application of each coat, irregular surfaces such as sharp edges, welds, small
brackets, interstices etc. shall be stripe-coated, usually by brush, to ensure the specified film
thickness is provided..
13.5.7 Repair of coating defects

Damaged areas, defects in the coating system such as over-runs, drips and smears that have
to be removed or areas with inadequate dry film coating thickness shall be re-cleaned. The
re-cleaning shall carry over on to the sound coating for not less than 50 mm all round, the
edges of which shall be feathered.
After the surface cleaning, the specified coating system shall be re-applied. Any additional
coats shall blend in with the final coating at adjoining areas. Paint Manufacturers shall be
consulted if the existing coating requires abrading before over-coating to obtain good
bonding.
13.5.8 Only thinners specified by the paint Manufacturer shall be used
13.6 Paint Procurement
Painting Contractor shall procure paint material from BPCL approved manufacturers only.

ANNEXURE F
Procedure for Measurement of Dry Film Coating Thickness
Definitions:
DFT Dry Film Thickness

Gauge Reading A single DFT reading at one point
Spot A circle of 4 cm diameter
Spot Measurement - Average of acceptable three gauge readings within a spot (circle of 4 cm
diameter)
Spot Measurement Procedure:
Minimum of three (3) gauge readings shall be made for each spot measurement of either the
substrate or the coating. Repeated gauge readings, even at points close together, may differ due to
small surface irregularities of the coating and the substrate. For each new gauge reading move the
probe to a new location within 4 cm diameter circle defining the spot. Discard any unusually high or
low reading that cannot be repeated consistently. Take the average of the acceptable gauge readings
as the spot measurement.
Required Number of Measurements for Conformance to a thickness specification
Number of Measurements:
Make five (5) spot measurements spaced randomly over each 10 m2 (100 ft2) area to be measured.
No. of spot measurement beyond five for an area of 10 m2 can be increased as decided by BPCL. The
five spot measurements shall be made for each 10 m2 (100 ft2) of area as follows :
a. For structures not exceeding 30 m2 (300 ft2) in area, each 10 sq m2 (100 ft2) area shall be measured.
b. For structures not exceeding 100 m2 (1000 ft2) in area, three 10 m2 (100 ft2) areas shall be randomly
selected and measured.
c. For structures exceeding 100 m2 (1000 ft2) in area, the first 10 m2 (1000 ft2) shall be measured as
stated in (b) above and for increment thereof or each additional 100 m 2 (1000 ft2) of area, one 10 m2
(1000 ft2) area shall be randomly selected and measured.
d. If the dry film thickness for any 10 m2 (100 ft2) area as mentioned in (b) & ( c) above is not in
compliance with the requirements of (e) & (f) as mentioned below, then additional measurements
must be made to isolate the nonconforming area.
78
Page 115 of 146

Specifying Thickness :
Both a maximum and a minimum DFT should be specified for the coating. If a maximum thickness
value is not explicitly specified, the specified thickness shall be minimum.
e. Minimum thickness : The average of five spot measurements for each 10 m2 (100 ft2) area shall not
be less than the specified minimum DFT. The average of three guage readings at any single spot
measurement in any 10 m2 (100 ft2) area s hall not be less than 80% of the specified minimum DFT. If
the average of five spot measurements for a given 10 m2 (100 ft2) area meets or exceeds the
specified minimum DFT and any spot measurement does not met 80% of the specified minimum DFT
, additional spot measurements may be made to define the non-conforming areas.
f. Maximum thickness : The average of five spot measurements for each 10 m 2 (100 ft2) area shall not
be more than the specified maximum DFT. No single spot measurement in any 10 m 2 (100 ft2) area
shall be more than 120% of the specified minimum DFT. If the average of the five spot measurements
of a given 10 m2 (100 ft2) area meets or falls below the specified maximum DFT, but one or more spot
measurements is more than 120% of the specified minimum DFT, additional spot measurements may
be made to define the non-conforming area .
