The Dubai Dry Docks facility was constructed in 1971 and is one

of the leading ship repair yards in the world. It is dedicated to

providing a ship repair service to the highest standards of quality

and reliability. The Company contacted Enviropeel because it

was anxious to solve the problem of accelerated corrosion of

pipes and flanges caused by the high humidity levels and

atmospheric conditions in chambers below ground level.

DUBAI DRY DOCKS

The standard procedure

fror the Company had

been to paint the valves

within the chambers every

six months which was both

costly and inefficient. To

solve the problem Dubai

Dry Docks was interested to

see if Enviropeel could offer

a solution, and a trial

application using a small

demonstration unit was

arranged. S ince access to the

flanges and valves was

severely restricted, the

ability of the Enviropeel

e q u i p m e n t t o r e a c h

relatively inaccessible areas

was also an extremely

important factor. Primary testing on the

first flanges so impressed

o b s e r v e r s w i t h t h e

e f f e c t i v e n e s s o f t h e

Enviropeel encapsulation

that it was immediately

decided to increase the

application to include 18

flanges, 5 valves, 5 bends
