Analysis by JSC "Tatneft" proves that more than 39% damage to commercial steel pipelines that do not have internal protection from contact with the transport medium,is due to internal corrosion. To solve the problem of reducing damage to the pipes and reduce the negative impact on the environment due to the collapse of steel pipes must be carried out on their inner surfaces of corrosion protection.
Results
Many years of practical experience in the application and the application of coatings in terms of "Tatneft", as well as carefulmonitoring of pipes with internal coating during their operation, shows excellent results improve the reliability of pipes with protective coatings. This is confirmed by the use of regular reports pipes with an internal protective coating and reviews the major oil companies.
Сonclusions
Over 10 years of implementation of the third-party organizations and the introduction of pipes increased reliability amounted to more than 3600 km. With the right approach to the selection of the necessary pipe coating, depending onthe operating conditions, the necessary qualifications of builders to constructpipelines from pipes increased reliability and personnel responsible for the correct operation of these pipelines will ensure trouble-free operation for at least 20 years with aggressive transport medium. Regular customers of PPT are the following companies: JSC "Lukoil", OJSC "TNK-BP", JSC "Lukoil-Neftestroy", JSC "TNK-Nyagan", JSC "Rosneft", JSC "Trading House Family", JSC "Yukos Service", JSC "SIDANCO", LLC"Orenburggazprom", OJSC "Surgutneftegas", JSC "Sanya" and others.
