2. General Requirements
1) Paint system selection shall be based on normal operating temperatures. Consult with Coating
Specialist when operating conditions swing outside the normal operating temperature range (ex.
regen temperature excursions, steam out, and low temperature swings).
2) Manufacturer’s instructions and SSPC-PA-1 shall be followed for the application of paints and
protective coatings unless modified by this practice or the Purchaser.
3) Structural components shall be galvanized. Components such as platforms, floor plates and
grating, stair treads, ladders, safety cages, handrail assemblies, instrument supports, instrument
raceways and other small pieces of structures and their bolting shall be hot-dip galvanized per ASTM
A123. Galvanized components received with excessive dross or other artifacts which may pose a
safety hazard or coating performance defect as determined by Owner or Owner Representative shall
be removed at the expense of the galvanizer. Defects such as excessive thickness (20+ mils of zinc)
or other practices which yield poor zinc coating adhesion are rejectable. All structural steel members
will be galvanized to meet low lead standards. Low lead galvanizing is defined as galvanizing
provided via use of a kettle containing "high grade zinc" in accordance with ASTM B6-03. Per Table
1 from ASTM B6 (Zinc Grades), the lead content shall not be greater than 0.03% by weight. Lead
content testing will be done, as a minimum, on a monthly basis by way of a sample from the kettle.
The testing laboratory and procedure will be subject to Owner review and approval. Galvanizing shop
locations and kettle sizes may be found on the internet at
http://www.galvanizeit.org/showContent,128,169.cfm
4) Flange faces (non-machined surfaces), including bolt holes shall be coated.
5) Gasket surfaces and other machined surfaces shall NOT be abrasive blasted or coated unless
approved by Owner’s engineer.
6) Vessel supports (i.e., legs, saddles, the inside and outside surfaces of vessel skirts) provided with
the equipment shall receive the coating system suitable for the maximum operating temperature of
the vessel. If the support is fireproofed, the coating system shall be System 5B.
7) Edges to be welded: Coatings shall terminate 4 inches minimum from edges to be welded.
8) Vessels to be hydrotested: Welds on vessels shall be left uncoated until after hydrotest.
9) [*] Piping to be hydrotested: All welds, shop and field, can be primed and/or coated prior to
hydrotest per ASME B31.3; 345.3.1, unless otherwise specified by Owner’s Engineer.
10) Extend coatings beyond insulation or fireproofing: If a coating is being specified for corrosion
protection under fireproofing (CUF) or insulation (CUI), all appurtenances that will extend beyond
the insulation or fireproofing shall be coated in the same manner as the equipment and/or piping.
11) Thermal Sprayed Aluminum (TSA) :
• shall be used for protection of existing CS piping/equipment under thermal insulation &
operating < 350°F, except for Category D Fluid Service as defined by ASME B31.3. Deviation
from this specification must be approved by Owner’s Engineer and also requires an approved
MOC.
• is not an acceptable coating choice for under concrete fireproofing.
• should be considered the coating of first choice, especially for carbon steel equipment
and piping subject to atmospheric corrosion or corrosion under insulation(CUI). Use of a
different system may be used where the application of System “3” is deemed not practical.
Consult Site Coating Specialist for proper choice.

5. Surface Preparation and Coating Application

1) Documents required at the site. Contractor must maintain at the job site: all appropriate Manufacturer’s Safety
Data Sheets (MSDS) for the products being used, product data sheets, application instructions (if not included
as part of the data sheet), and this specification.
2) Abrasive blasting on live or pressurized equipment: Owner's approval is required prior to working on live or
pressurized equipment.
3) Pre-blast inspection: The Owner’s representative shall assess whether all metal work has been completed,
and whether surfaces are satisfactorily clean/smooth for coating BEFORE abrasive blasting shall begin.
CAUTION: Areas of corrosion shall be inspected to ensure there is sufficient remaining wall thickness to prevent
hole through during blasting operations. Steel surfaces shall be clean of all hydrocarbons, chemical residue,
moisture, dirt, etc. prior to abrasive blasting. This may be accomplished by pressure washing, steam cleaning,
or solvent cleaning per SSPC SP-1. Potable water must be used for any washing with water.
4) Surface imperfections. All imperfections such as delaminations, scale, weld spatter, gouges, slivers, and weld
slag shall be corrected prior to abrasive blasting.
5) Environmental restrictions. Unless otherwise specified in writing by coating manufacturer, blasting and
painting operations will not be conducted unless the following conditions exist:
Air temperature: 50 to 100°F
Steel temperature: 50 to 110°F
Surface temperature must be at least 5°F
Dew Point:
above the dew point.
Within manufacturer’s recommendations
Relative Humidity:
when applying coatings
6) Blasting. During dry abrasive blasting, surfaces shall be maintained to at least 5°F above the dew point. The
first coat shall be applied within 4 hours of blasting. If rust bloom forms after blasting, the affected area shall be
re-blasted before application of the first coat. Note: If climate controls are in place to provide continuous
ambient conditions as listed above, the 4 hour window does not apply.
7) Air quality. Contractor shall supply air that is free of oil, water, and other contaminants. Equipment such as air
dryers, filters, or coolers, necessary for clean, dry air shall be provided by Contractor.
8) Manufacturer’s instructions. Anchor profile, steel temperature, material storage temperatures, mixing,
thinning, application, and thickness of individual coats shall be in accordance with the coating manufacturer’s
instructions. All recoat intervals specified for each material shall be observed.
9) Stripe coating. Rough areas, as well as corners, edges, and all welds shall be brush striped. For three (3) coat
systems, brush striping shall be done with the intermediate coat. For two (2) coat systems, striping shall be
done with the primer coat.
10) Surface cleanliness. Contractor shall provide and utilize paper gloves, boot covers, or other coverings as
necessary to prevent workers from contaminating prepared or coated surfaces before application of subsequent
coats of material.
11) Rain protection. Unless otherwise stated in writing by coating manufacturer that the coating is moisture-proof
within 6 hours at applicable field conditions, the contractor shall notify Owner’s Representative if rain or moisture
comes in contact with coating before that time has elapsed. If blush has occurred, contact the Site Coatings
Specialist.

External Paint and Protective Coatings Specification:

12) Touchup materials: Coating materials for touchup shall be the same as the original coating system unless the
manufacturer of the inorganic zinc does not allow self-recoat. In this case, use Table 1 System 2 as the primer
up to 250°F. Repair of galvanizing shall be in accordance with Table 1 System 5A.
13) Touchup surface prep and application: Surface preparation for touchup areas shall achieve the original SSPC
surface preparation designation as specified for the original coating system. Surface shall be solvent cleaned
with rags or detergent washed and rinsed. Rags must be clean and changed frequently. If blasting of small areas
is not feasible, use mechanical cleaning tools (e.g. 3M Scotchbrite Clean-N-Strip and MBX Bristle Blaster) to
achieve SP-11 and a minimum 1.0 mil anchor profile. Wire wheel buffing does not provide the necessary anchor
profile for coating adhesion, and is not allowed. Feather the edges of the existing coating and solvent wipe.

6. Quality Control and Quality Assurance Inspection

1) Contractor QC. The coatings Contractor shall provide a person with responsibility for quality control (QC),
hereafter referred to as Contractor QC, who is NACE certified and experienced in the application and quality
control of coatings. The Contractor QC associated with a particular project shall be designated before work is
commenced. The Contractor QC’s qualifications shall be available for ExxonMobil's review. The Contractor QC
shall be responsible for documentation of all quality control inspection steps and verification of quality at all
inspection hold points prior to ExxonMobil Owner’s representative acceptance.
2) ExxonMobil QA: Owner/Purchaser’s representative will perform quality assurance (QA) inspection of all surface
preparation and coating application steps. This does not release the Contractor from providing a NACE certified
individual assigned as Contractor QC. Contractor shall bear the cost of any rework required of any work
completed without Inspector’s approval or waiver. The Coatings Inspector shall have continuous access to the
coating applicator’s job site and quality control log sheets. Note: Copies of all procedures, a charge number,
and the job scope, including when and where the work will occur must be provided to ExxonMobil’s third party
inspector prior to beginning any tasks.

Attachment A: TSA Application Guidelines

Scope:
While it is recognized that thermal spray aluminum (TSA) is the specified coating within the Baton Rouge complex
for insulated carbon steel equipment subject to CUI 1, there are situations where the application of TSA is not
warranted or justified. Furthermore, there are situations where the shop 2 application of TSA on new/replacement
equipment is more cost effective versus the field application of TSA on existing equipment.

The following document serves as a guideline for the application of TSA versus conventional coatings and recoat
versus replace equipment for equipment subject to CUI. Deviation from these guidelines to use conventional
coating instead of TSA for CUI piping requires an approved MOC.

TABLE 1
Coating Recommendation for Carbon Steel Equipment Subject to CUI

Application/Situation Recommended Coating Comments

Piping
New piping (>2" NPS) where the expected TSA If the total flanged or unflanged section length
life due to internal corrosion > 20 years. is < 50', then follow replacement piping
guidelines that follow.
Replacement piping (>2" NPS) where the
expected life due to internal corrosion > 20 TSA
years:
- Insulated piping subject to CUI. TSA Recommended coating
- Sweating pipe3 or pipe located within 100'
of a TSA

- Flanged sections fabricated in shop. TSA may be protected with conventional coating.
- Unflanged sections > 50' in length. TSA

- Unflanged sections (≤ 50') which tie into Conventional coating

TABLE 2
Replace/Re-coat Recommendation

The following table serves as a guideline to assist project and mechanical planners in determining when to replace
versus recoat4 existing piping and vessels. It is based on the recognition that shop applied coatings on new
equipment can, in certain situations, offset the cost of coating existing equipment in place. Many variables such as
new equipment cost, equipment location/elevation, accessibility, congestion with other work activities and the
available time to complete the work should be considered in the final replace/re-coat recommendation.

Situation Recommendation Comment

Piping
Flanged pipe spools (no field welds
required): Replace with shop applied TSA
- ≤ 8" NPS5 Recoat per coating recommendation
- > 8" NPS table
Pipe spools with field welds required:
- ≤ 4" NPS4 Replace with shop applied TSA
- > 4" NPS Recoat per coating recommendation

rate life < 10 years or < next turnaround
interval.

4
The field application of TSA can be achieved by either the flame spray or arc spray methods. In general, the arc spray method
is more cost effective for large diameter or flat surfaces with significant square footage to coat. Flame spray is better suited for
smaller diameter equipment or where smaller square footage needs to be coated.
