Jotun has developed a maintenance coating system for offshore operators. It will be the world’s first NORSOK approved solution for brush and roller application on power tooled and water jetted surfaces.

The new range consists of the Barrier Smart Pack, Jotamastic Smart Pack HB an[ds_preview]d Hardtop One. According to Jotun the three individual products have a range of key benefits: Barrier Smart Pack, a ceramically reinforced zinc rich epoxy primer, extends system lifetime while reducing surface preparation and application cost; Jotamastic Smart Pack HB delivers high build, even thickness finish, is easy to apply and gives long-lasting protection in the harshest environments; and Hardtop One offers all the benefits of a two-component high quality polysiloxane coating, in a single component polysiloxane coating.

Maintenance on offshore solutions is expensive and complex

Offshore maintenence would be  ten to 15 times more expensive per m2 than it is in a yard, says Lasse Isaksen, Global Concept Director – Offshore, Jotun. »That’s why this system, designed specifically for brush or roller application and passing the industry’s most stringent standards (NORSOK and ISO 20340), is so important. It delivers better coating integrity, longer maintenance intervals, enhanced efficiency, and, of course, real cost savings«, he adds.

The new maintenance range will be launched at this year’s OTC in Houston (1-4 May).
