High demands for the corrosion protection exist for the construction of facilities on the high seas. Difficult accessibility makes partial on the spot replacements almost impossible. The coating systems for
- Steel tower and machine parts
- Foundation structures as well as
- Repair system offshore
must therefore be designed in such a way as to withstand the climate over the entire lifetime of the construction, about 20 - 25 years. Further standards relating to corrosion protection in offshore environments, in addition to the EN ISO 12944-6, are ISO 20340 and NORSOK M-501.
