Belzona, a leader in design and manufacture of polymer  repair composites and industrial protective coatings, is set to showcase new technology and proven solutions at an event in Bahrain next month.

The 19th Middle East Oil and Gas Show (MEOS) will run March 8 to 11 at the Bahrain International Exhibition and Convention Centre.

It will feature protective linings designed for high temperature immersion and erosion protection; composite repairs, including pressurised pipe wraps and bespoke cold bonding technology; and splash zone repairs with the use of surface tolerant materials and elastomers, said a statement.

The firm will be represented by its authorised distributors in the Middle East including Hatcon, AOTC, Apollo and MCT, covering Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar and UAE regions respectively, it said.

Jeremie Maillard, Belzona’s oil and gas market development manager, said: “Belzona has always been at the forefront of innovation as demonstrated in the 1990s when ceramic filled epoxy was established as the industry standard for erosion protection.

“Belzona is now advancing further by developing high molecular weight polymer composites, providing significantly better erosion resistance whilst offering the possibility to be spray applied. In addition, next generation modified epoxy novolac systems have been developed that offer ease of application and improved performance.

“Reducing asset owners’ capital expenditure whilst minimising their operational expenditure is our primary concern and the company’s strategy is fully in line to achieve it.”

Maillard will be in attendance for commercial discussions and to introduce new materials, presented for the first time exclusively at MEOS, the statement added. - TradeArabia News Service
