The document discusses a case study where Corrocoat used its VEF and Armagel coating system to quadruple the life expectancy of coarse water strainers used in the oil and gas industry in the UK. Specifically, the coating system involved grit blasting the internals and applying a minimum 1mm thick layer of VEF followed by a 1.5mm thick layer of Armagel. This extended the lifespan of the strainers from 2-3 years previously to over 12 years now before maintenance is needed. An oil and gas operator is now retrofitting and maintaining all of its coarse water filters over the next few years using this coating system.
