Project overview

A pile-stabilising platform is positioning and stabilising equipment for the piling of offshore wind turbine monopile foundations. The new platform commissioned by the Ministry of Transport's Guangzhou Salvage Bureau is 62 m long, 26 m wide and 26 m high, weighing about 1,100 tonnes, serving the installation of large monopile foundations in deep waters. The project is included in ZINDN's Anticorrosive Coatings in Marine Engineering Applications.

Anti-corrosion (fire protection) challenge

  • The equipment is deployed at sea for long periods, with wave splash and salt deposition coexisting in the splash zone;
  • During piling, the pile frame, pile gripper and other parts are subject to friction and impact, requiring high coating damage resistance;
  • Large components are built in sections and erected on site; the coating system shall support on-site touch-up.

FAQ

Which coating system was used on Guangzhou Salvage Bureau Pile Stabilisation Platform Newbuilding Project?
For Main structure the specified system is: ZINDN cold galvanizing primer + epoxy glass flake 600 µm + epoxy topcoat 80 µm.
What was the corrosion protection challenge at Guangzhou Salvage Bureau Pile Stabilisation Platform Newbuilding Project?
The equipment is deployed at sea for long periods, with wave splash and salt deposition coexisting in the splash zone;
Can the same system be adapted to a different project?
Yes, in principle, but the specification has to be re-checked against the new exposure category, surface preparation and expected service life. Send us the site conditions and we will confirm whether this system carries over unchanged or needs adjustment.
Where can I find the data sheets for the products in this system?
Each product named in the system above links to its own data sheet page on this site, with the parameters, application data and the manufacturer's TDS.
